An elderly woman is called to the stand.... In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecutor called his first witness, a grandmotherly, elderly woman 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 small boy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie and you 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'll never 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 replied, ""Why, yes, I do. I've known Mr, Bradley since he was an itty-bitty youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He can't build a normal relationship with anyone, and his law practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Yes, I know him."" The defence attorney nearly died. The judge then asked both counselors to approach the bench and whispered, ""If either of you idiots ask her if she knows me, I'll send you both to the electric chair.""
