In a Courtroom, the judge says to a double-murder defendant,
"You're charged with beating your wife to death with a hammer."
A voice at the back of the courtroom yells out, "You bar steward!"
The judge says, "You're also charged with beating your mother-in-law to death with a hammer."
The voice in the back of the courtroom yells out, "You rotten bar steward!"
The judge stops and says to the man at the back of the courtroom, "Sir, I can understand your anger and frustration at these
crimes But no more outbursts from you, or I'll charge you with contempt. Is that understood?"
The man stands up and says, "I'm sorry Your Honor, but for 15 years I've lived next door to that guy and every time I asked to borrow a hammer, he said he didn't have one!"
