It was a warn Southern California evening when the jury reached a verdict in the O. J. Simpson case. The nation was anxiously awaiting the jury's
verdict and newsmen were rapidly arriving on the rumors that the decision would finally be announced. At that moment, Judge Ito was in his backyard
Bar-B-Quing filet mignon for the family's evening dinner. The bailiff phoned the Ito residence and when Mrs. Ito answered, requested that the Judge
be notified and suggested that the judge should return to the court house as soon as possible. Mrs. Ito refused the bailiff's request because, she
insisted, "HIS HONOR WAS AT STEAK."
A squad car driver was covering a quiet beat out in the sticks when he was amazed to find a former lieutenant on the police force covering the beat.
He stopped the car and asked, "Why, Mike, this wouldn't be your new beat out here in the sticks, would it? "That it is," Mike replied grimly, "ever
since I arrested Judge Ito on his way to the masquerade ball." "You mean you pinched his honor?" asked Pat. "How was I to know that his convict suit
was only a costume." demanded Mike. "Well," mused Pat, "'tis life and there's a lesson in this somewhere." "That there is," replied Mike. "'TIS WISE
NEVER TO BOOK A JUDGE BY HIS COVER."
Noren Eron, the great Norse comic decided to bring his act to America. He booked several shows in the northern states and did well. He then took his
act down south, but he realized that the farther south he went, the less the crowd appreciated his act which had the poor guy miffed. When he got to
the Deep South, no one got his act at all. After many disappointing sets, he just quit one night and returned to Norway. This goes to show you, ...
You should never book a miffed Norse in the south.
This was the day that could be the most important day in my career. I had rented three adjoining rooms at the Four Seasons Hotel, where we hoped to
work out an agreement that would result in a merger of our firms. I expected some heavy social drinking during our meetings and went to the liquor
cabinet to ensure that it was properly stocked. To my horror and chagrin, I found the cabinet filled with bottles of Angastora and little else. I
called the manager and demanded that the bottles be removed and the liquor cabinet be better stocked. He refused stating, "You have to take the
bitters with the suite."
Received from Stan "The Pun Man" Kegel.
