Court scene: [Santa and Banta are lawyers] Santa : You are a fool Banta : And you are a damn fool. Judge : As the learned lawyers have now identified each other, can we now proceed with the case.
I found myself in a pub in Patiala and a group of American tourists came in.
One of the Americans said, in a loud voice, "I hear you Punjabis think you're great drinkers. I bet $5,000 that no-one here can drink 3 bottles of Jack Daniels in 10 minutes."
The bar was silent, the American noticed Santa leaving, no-one took up the bet. 20 minutes later Santa who left returned and said, "Hey Yank, is your bet still on?"
In the traffic court a young lady was brought before the judge to answer for a ticket given her for driving through a red light.
She explained to his honor that she was a school teacher and requested an immediate disposal of her case so she could get to the school on time.
A wild gleam came into the judge's eyes.
"You're a school teacher, eh?" he said. "Madam, I shall realize my lifelong ambition. I've waited years to have a school teacher in this court. Now sit down at that table and write 'I will not drive through red lights' 500 times!"
Fresh out of business school, the young man answered a want ad for an accountant. Now he was being interviewed by a very nervous Banta who ran a small business that he had started himself. "I need someone with an accounting degree," Banta said. "But mainly, I'm looking for someone to do my worrying for me." "Excuse me?" the accountant said. "I worry about a lot of things," Banta said. "But I don't want to have to worry about money. Your job will be to take all the money worries off my back." "I see," the accountant said. "And how much does the job pay?" "I'll start you at eighty thousand." "Eighty thousand dollars!" the accountant exclaimed. "How can such a small business afford a sum like that?" "That," Banta said, "is your first worry."
A man woke up from sleep and found a letter on top of the fridge.
He took the letter and it reads: It is no more working and I can not continue staying here, I am gone and till something is done about it, I am not going to come back.
He opened the fridge and brought out a chilled drink and took a sip.
With surprise on his face, he said, "But the fridge is working now! What the hell is she talking about?"
