You Mean WHAT?
A judge was interviewing a woman regarding
her pending divorce, and asked, “What are
the grounds for your divorce?”
She replied, “About four acres and a nice
little home in the middle of the property
with a stream running by.”
“No,” he said, “I mean what is the foundation
of this case?”
“It is made of concrete, brick and mortar,” she responded.
“I mean,” he continued, “What are your relations like?”
“I have an aunt and uncle living here in town,
and so do my husband’s parents.”
He said, “Do you have a real grudge?”
“No,” she replied, “We have a two-car carport and
have never really needed one.”
“Please,” he tried again, “Is there any
infidelity in your marriage?”
“Yes, both my son and daughter have stereo sets.
We don’t necessarily like the music, but the
answer to your questions is yes.”
“Ma’am, does your husband ever beat you up?”
“Yes,” she responded, “about twice a week he
gets up earlier than I do.”
Finally, in frustration, the judge asked, “Lady,
why do you want a divorce?”
“Oh, I don’t want a divorce,” she replied.
“I’ve never wanted a divorce. My husband does.
He said he can’t communicate with me.”
