We don't >necessarily like the music, but the answer to your questions >is yes." > >"Ma'am, does your husband ever beat you up?" > >"Yes," she responded, "about twice a week he gets up earlier >than I do." > >Finally, in frustration, the judge asked, "Lady, why DO you want >a divorce?" > >"Oh, I don't want a divorce," she replied.
