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.'

No one moved.
The preacher continued, "Do you have the nerve to face me and admit this is a falsehood? Remember, you will be foregiven and in your heart you will feel glory. Now stand and confess your transgression."
Again, all was quiet.
Then, slowly, a drop-dead gorgeous blonde with a body that would stop a runaway train rose from the third pew. Her head was bowed and her voice quivered as she spoke, "Reverend there has been a terrible misunderstanding. I never said you were a member of the Ku Klux Klan. I simply told a couple of my friends that you were a wizard under the sheets."
The preacher fell to his knees, his wife fainted, and the congregation roared.

The teacher says to the first child 'hello Becky, what have you been doing this playtime?'
Becky replies ' I have been playing in the sand box'.
'Very good' says the teacher 'if you can spell 'sand' on the blackboard, I will give you a cookie'
Becky duly goes and writes 's a n d' on the blackboard.
'Very good' says the teacher and gives Becky a cookie.
The teacher then says 'Freddie, what have you been doing in your playtime?'
Freddie replies 'playing with Becky in the sand box'.
'Very good' says the teacher. 'If you can spell 'box' on the blackboard, I will also give you a cookie'
Freddie duly goes and writes 'b o x' on the blackboard.
'Very good' says the teacher and gives Freddie a cookie.
Teacher then says 'Hello Mohammed, have you been playing in the sand box with Becky and Freddie?'
'No' replies Mohammed, 'I wanted to, but they would not let me. Every time I went near them they started throwing sand at me and calling me nasty names'.
'Oh dear' says the teacher.
'That sounds like blatant racial discrimination to me - I tell you what, if you can spell 'blatant racial discrimination' I will give you a cookie'. [;)][;)]

That night, he was at his girlfriends' house, and everyone was seated at the dinner table, ready to eat. They all said grace with bowed heads, and then they began eating. As dinner progressed, the girl noticed that the boy's head was still bowed. "I didn't know you were so religious," she whispered to her young boyfriend, impressed.
"And, I didn't know your dad was a pharmacist," was his reply.

Train Ride.
Sitting together on a train, traveling through the Swiss Alps, are a
French guy an American guy, an elderly Greek lady and a young blonde
Swiss woman.
The train goes into a dark tunnel and a few seconds later there is
the sound of a loud slap. When the train emerges from the tunnel, the
Frenchman has a bright red hand print on his cheek. No one speaks.
The elderly lady thinks: The Frenchman must have groped the blonde in
the dark, and she slapped his cheek.
The blonde thinks: That Frenchman must have tried to grope me in the
dark, but missed and fondled the elderly lady and she slapped his cheek.
The Frenchman thinks: The American must have groped the blonde in the
dark.
She tried to slap him but missed and got me instead.
The American thinks: I can't wait for another tunnel, so I can smack
the poop out of that Frenchman again.

The reporter asked about the occupations of her prior husbands and she told him the first husband had been a banker, the second husband was the ring announcer for a circus and the third husband was a preacher. The reporter then asked her about the variety of occupations of her husbands.
She thought for a bit and then said, "Well, I guess it was one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready and four to go!!"
