[Bigjeeze]

A quiet little man was brought before a Judge.

 

The Judge looked over the charges, then peered down at

the little man in amazement.

 

'Can you tell me in your own words what happened?'

asked the Judge.

 

'I'm a mathematician dealing in the nature of proof.'

 

'Yes, go on,' said the Judge.

 

'Well, I was at the library and I found the books

I wanted and went to check them out.

 

They told me my library card had expired and I had

to get a new one.

 

So I went to the registration office and got in another

line. The lady there gave me some forms to fill out.

 

I filled out the forms and got in another line to get

my new card.'

 

'And?' prodded the Judge.

 

'And then the guy behind that counter said, 'Can you

prove you're from New York City?'

 

So I stabbed him.'
