Today's Laugh........Ha Ha Ha !!!
A number of the Monday Guys can relate !!!
To the irritation of the judge, a man was trying to be excused for jury service.
“Tell me,” rapped the judge, “Is there any good reason why you cannot serve as a juror in this trial?”The man replied: “I don’t want to be away from my job that long.”“Can’t they do without you at work?” demanded the judge.“Yes,” admitted the juror. “But I don’t want them to realize it.”
