His Gold Watch
A judge was instructing the jury that a witness was not necessarily to be
regarded as untruthful because he changed his statement after he gave it to
the police.
"For example," he said, "when I entered my chambers today, I was positive
that I had my gold watch in my pocket. But then I remembered that I left in
on my nightstand in my bedroom."
When the judge returned home that evening, his wife asked him "Why so much
urgency for your watch? Isn't sending three men to pick it up for you a bit
extreme?"
"What?" said the judge, "I didn't send anyone for my watch, let alone three
people. What did you do?"
"I gave it to the first one," said the wife, "he knew exactly where it was."

Beer Prayer

Our lager,
Which art in barrels,
Hallowed be thy drink.
Thy will be drunk,
(I will be drunk),
At home as in the tavern.
Give us this day our foamy head,
And forgive us our spillages,
As we forgive those who spill against us.
And lead us not to incarceration,
But deliver us from hangovers.
For thine is the beer, The bitter and The lager.
Forever and ever,
Barmen
