Staying humble
Bill and Sam are two very old friends. They meet every day at the park to feed pigeons, look at the squirells and have little chats.
One day, Bill did not show up. Sam thought nothing of it, maybe did Bill catch a cold or something. But a week later, Sam started to worry.
The park had been their only meeting place. Sam didn't know where Bill lived and had no way to ask what had happened to him. One month passed, Sam thought he would never see Bill again. But then, as he approached the park he saw Bill sitting on the bench.
Sam, very happy, asked:
"For god sake, what happened with you"?
"I have been in prison for the whole month"! answered Bill.
"In prison"! shouted Sam. "But why"?
"Well, ...you know Sue, the cute little brunette serving at the coffee shop I go to every day".
"Sure I remember her, what about it"? asked Sam.
"Well ...she accused me of raping her. Having 89 years, I felt so proud that I pleaded guilty in court, and the dammed judge gave me 30 days in prison",
"for perjury".
