The judge says to
a double-homicide defendant, "You’re charged
with beating your wife to death with a hammer."

A voice at the back of the
courtroom yells out, "You bastard!"

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 bastard!"

The judge stops and says to Paddy
in 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?"

Paddy stands up and says,
"I’m sorry, Your Honour, but for fifteen years
I’ve lived next door to that arsehole and every time I asked to
borrow a hammer, he said he didn’t have one."
