Family Beatings

A seven-year-old boy was at the centre of a London courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him. The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the degree possible.

The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried out that they also beat him.

After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him. After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to Queens Park Rangers Football Club whom the boy firmly believes are incapable of beating anyone.

Charitable Lawyer

The staff at a local charity office realised that it had never received a donation from the town's most successful lawyer. The person in charge of contributions called the lawyer to persuade him to contribute.
"Our research shows that out of a yearly income of $500,000, you have not given even a penny to charity. Wouldn't you like to give back to the community in some way?"
The lawyer mulled this over for a moment and replied, "First, did your research also show that my mother is dying after a long illness and has medical bills that are several times her annual income?"
Embarrassed, the charity organisation representative mumbled, "Uh, no, I did not know that.”
"Or," the lawyer continued, "that my brother, a disabled veteran, is blind and confined to a wheelchair?"
The caller began to stammer out an apology but was interrupted when the lawyer added, "Or that my sister's husband died in a traffic accident,” the lawyer's voice rising in indignation, "leaving her penniless with three children?"
The humiliated caller, completely beaten, said simply, "I had no idea. I’m so sorry sir."
On a roll, the lawyer rudely cut him off once again, "So, if I don't give any money to them, why should I give any to you?"

The Problem With Being A Programmer

My mum said, "Honey, please go to the market and buy a bottle of milk.  If they have eggs, get 6".
I came back with 6 bottles of milk.
She said, "Why on earth did you buy 6 bottles of milk?"
I said, "because they had eggs".
