True Transcriptions from Court Reporters



Court Reporter: HOW DO COURT RECORDERS KEEP STRAIGHT FACES????

WITNESS: I forget. 
ATTORNEY: You forget? Can you give us an example of something you forgot? 

ATTORNEY: Now doctor, isn't it true that when a person dies in his sleep, he doesn't know about it until the next morning? WITNESS: Did you actually pass the bar exam?

WITNESS: No.
 ATTORNEY: Did you check for blood pressure?

Elderly Couple 

An “elderly” couple go to the doctor. The wife says, “Can you see if there is something you can do for him. We haven’t had sex in a long time. We tried everything and nothing works, not even the miracle pill.” The doctor performs a number of tests and calls them back into his office. 

Well, you have 3 options: 1) for $5,000 we can perform minor surgery and you can have sex twice a year. 2) for $10,000, a little more complicated surgery, you can have sex every 3 months. 3) for $35,000 we can perform major surgery and you can have sex once a month.

Please go out to the waiting room and discuss your options and let me know your decision. A half hour later they come back into the office. The doctor asks, have you made a decision. 

Yes, we have, says the couple. What have you decided? We decided to redo the kitchen...

Birthday Wishes?

Birthday! Why did I get divorced? Well, last week was my birthday. My wife didn't wish me a happy birthday. My parents forgot and so did my kids. I went to work and even my colleagues didn't wish me a happy birthday.

As I entered my office, my secretary said, "Happy birthday, boss!" I felt so special. She asked me out for lunch. After lunch, she invited me to her apartment. We went there and she said, "Do you mind if I go into the bedroom for a minute?" "Okay," I said.

She came out 5 minutes later with a birthday cake, my wife, my parents, my kids, my friends, & my colleagues all yelling, "SURPRISE!!!" while I was waiting on the sofa... naked.

Never Too Old...


As You Slide Down the Banister of Life ...

1. Jim Baker and Jimmy Swaggart have written an impressive new book. It's called ...'Ministers do more than Lay People' 
2. The difference between the Pope and your boss, the Pope only expects you to kiss his ring. 
3. My mind works like lightning … one brilliant flash and it is gone. 
4. The only time the world beats a path to your door is if you're in the bathroom. 
5. I hate sex in the movies. Tried it once. The seat folded up, the drink spilled and that ice, well, it really chilled the mood. 
6. It used to be only death and taxes. Now, of course, there's shipping and handling, too. 
7. A husband is someone who, after taking the trash out, gives the impression that he just cleaned the whole house. 
8. My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large trash can.
9. Definition of a teenager? God's punishment...for enjoying sex. 
And as you slide down that Banister of Life you should pray that all the splinters are pointed the other way...

Who says seniors don't have a sense of humor? You can say what you want about Florida, but you never hear of anyone retiring and moving north. These are actual ads seen in ''The Villages'' Florida newspaper. 

FOXY LADY: Sexy, fashion-conscious blue-haired beauty, 80's, slim, 5'4' (used to be 5'6'), Searching for sharp looking, sharp-dressing companion. Matching white shoes and belt a plus. 

LONG-TERM COMMITMENT: Recent widow who has just buried fourth husband, looking for someone to round out a six-unit plot. Dizziness, fainting, shortness of breath, not a problem. 

 SERENITY NOW: I am into solitude, long walks, sunrises, the ocean, yoga, and meditation. If you are the silent type, let's get together, take our hearing aids out and enjoy quiet times. 

 WINNING SMILE: Active grandmother with original teeth seeking a dedicated flosser to share rare steaks, corn on the cob and caramel candy. 

 BEATLES OR STONES: I still like to rock, still like to cruise in my Camaro on Saturday nights and still like to play the guitar. If you were a groovy chick, or are now a groovy hen, let's get together and listen to my eight track tapes. 

MEMORIES I can usually remember Monday through Thursday. If you can remember Friday, Saturday and Sunday, let's put our two heads together. 

 MINT CONDITION: Male, 1932 model, high mileage, good condition, some hair, many new parts including hip, knee, cornea, valves. Isn't in running condition, but walks well. 

AND FINALLY: A lady in the Villages in Florida (a senior retirement community), was sitting on a bench, near another bench with a gentleman sitting on the bench. She asked him if he was new to the community and he said "no, I have owned a condo here for 20 years". She then said, "I have been here for 15 years and I have never seen you around!". He then said, "I have been in prison for the last 17 years!". She was stunned and finally asked him what he had done. He said that he had murdered his first wife! She was stunned again and after a long long pause she said, “So you're SINGLE???”

12 things to consider after closing the door on 2020


Here are 12 things to consider as we get closer to closing the door on one of the most horrible years of our lifetime:  

1.     The dumbest thing I ever bought was a 2020 planner.

2.     I was so bored I called Jake from State Farm just to talk to someone.  He asked me what I was wearing.

3.     2019:  Stay away from negative people.  2020:  Stay away from positive people.

4.     The world has turned upside down.  Old folks are sneaking out of the house & their kids are yelling at them to stay indoors!

5.     This morning I saw a neighbor talking to her dog.  It was obvious she thought her dog understood her.  I came into my house & told my cat.  We laughed a lot.

6.     Every few days try your jeans on just to make sure they fit.  Pajamas will have you believe all is well in the kingdom.

7.     Does anyone know if we can take showers yet or should we just keep washing our hands?

8.     This virus has done what no woman has been able to do.  Cancel sports, shut down all bars & keep men at home!

9.     I never thought the comment, “I wouldn’t touch him/her with a 6-foot pole” would become a national policy, but here we are!

10.    I need to practice social-distancing from the refrigerator.

11.    I hope the weather is good tomorrow for my trip to the Backyard.  I’m getting tired of the Living Room.

12.    Never in a million years could I have imagined I would go up to a bank teller wearing a mask & ask for money.

Merry Christmas to all and here’s hoping for a happier and healthier New Year!

Feel free to copy and paste, I did 🤣
