Lawyers should never ask a Georgia grandma a question if they aren't prepared for the answer.

If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure.
- Dan Quayle
~~~~~~~~~~~~

In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney 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 boy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, 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 defense attorney?'

She again replied, 'Why yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a
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. Not to mention he cheated on his wife with three different women. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know him.'

The defense attorney nearly died.

The judge asked both counselors to approach the bench and, in a very quiet voice, said,

'If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send you both to the electric chair.

These are excuse notes that school secretaries have actually received. Some of these were in an article in the Detroit News back in the 1970s.

“Please excuse John for being absent Jan. 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, and 33.”

“Ralph was absent yesterday because of a sour throat.”

“Please excuse Joey Friday. He had loose vowels.”

“Please excuse Joyce from jim today.”

“Please excuse Roland from P.E. for a few days. He fell out of a tree and misplaced his hip.”

“Karl was hit yesterday playing football. He was hurt in the growing part.”

“John was absent yesterday because he had a stomach.”

“Please excuse Gloria. She has been sick and under the doctor.”

“Please excuse Sarah from being absent yesterday. She was sick and I had her shot.”

Please excuse Jennifer for missing school yesterday. We forgot to get the Sunday paper off the porch, and when we found it Monday, we thought it was Sunday.

Sally won’t be in school a week from Friday. We have to attend her funeral.

My daughter was absent yesterday because she was tired. She spent a weekend with the Marines.

Please excuse Jason for being absent yesterday. He had a cold and could not breed well.

Please excuse Mary for being absent yesterday. She was in bed with gramps

Maryann was absent December 11-16, because she had a fever, sore throat, headache and upset stomach. Her sister was also sick, fever and sore throat, her brother had a low grade fever and ached all over. I wasn’t the best either, sore throat and fever. There must be something going around, her father even got hot last night.

“Please excuse Johnny for being. It was his father’s fault.”

Re: Tuesday's - 01/20/15 03:07 AM

Joe, I'm getting up at 3:30 as well. woozy Sleep well, and have a great "Thursday." wave

It's Monday night for me, too, and I'm off to sleep. It's going to be another early morning for me. Hopefully tomorrow will go more smoothly. Today, I had a fiasco with my work phone's update. It kicked me out of my location recognition, which means I was unable to do any of my surveys. So I was barely able to get any work done today, at least as far as my surveys were concerned, and I had to spend an hour on the phone waiting for tech support to answer. slapforehead Something like this happens every time we have an update, which is why I always dread them. Oh, well, tomorrow is bound to be better, considering I'm not off the map anymore. lol

Okay, off to sleep. Have a great Tuesday, everyone. winter

Terrific Tuesday ya'll puppy

I woke up a bit earlier than usual and then spent a couple of hours in the kitchen playing mad scientist. Got my fruit/veggie wash and 2 facial moisturizers mixed up. Then fed the very patient dogs, and cleaned up the kitchen.

Soon as I post this I'm heading to the park with the doggies. It's a beautiful day out there..starts cooling down a bit today with a bigger drop tomorrow so gotta get out there and enjoy that sun happydance

I have a webinar later today and then a run to the store for some things I need for dinner. Would love to stop while I'm out but I don't trust the 2 youngsters in the car without supervision, so will head out a 2nd time...eek!

Connie, are you guys celebrating something? Or just having a get away?

Back from the dentist -no too bad, 2 fillings and a patch- and then fun shopping at super Walmart. they have everything. Got bunches of grapes for the possums and those wonderful raspberry filled chocolate squares we all did well, even the kits. This Walmart has a great Fancy Feast selection. And mostly the novacain has worn off.

It's going to be 78!!! Shorts weather!!!

Gotta get something to eat

In the department of Grapes and Possums, mine eat all sorts of grapes, but the Peacock, won't eat anything except the black ones. Today they were out of black ones so I picked up the darkest red I could find. I mixed them with the black ones and am hoping she won't notice the different ones. I'll bet she does and picks them out. We shall see in about 1/2 hour.

Re: Tuesday's - 01/21/15 01:24 AM

Grabbing a quick sit down before dinner. Been cooking for a couple of hours. I hate hate hate when I get to the end of a long recipe only to find I left something out and it's too late to put it in. We shall see if all this cooking was for naught tonight rotfl

Edit: Well, the salmon cakes were delicous. The roasted broccoli was burned...hmmm...will have to rethink how to do that.

Now time to go collapse somewhere. Sweet dreams all sleep
