In a trial a small-town prosecuting attorney called his first witness an elderly grandmother to the stand He approached her and asked Mrs Jones do you know me? She responded Why yes I do know you Mr Williams I ve known you since you were a young boy and frankly you re a big disappointment to me You lie cheat on your wife manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs You think you re a big shot when you haven t the brains to realize you never will amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher Yes I know you The lawyer was stunned Not knowing what else to do he pointed across the room and asked Mrs Jones do you know the defence attorney? She again replied Why yes I do I ve known Mr Bradley since he was a youngster He s lazy bigoted and has a drinking problem He can t build a normal relationship with anyone and his law practice is one of the worst in the state Not to mention he cheated on his wife with three different women One of them was your wife Yes I know him The defence attorney almost died The judge asked both lawyers to approach the bench and in a quiet voice said: If either of you rascal asks her if she knows me I ll send you to the electric chai
