A judge was interviewing a woman regarding her pending divorce, and asked:
- What are the grounds for your divorce?
She replied:
- About four acres and a nice little home in the middle of the property with a stream running by.
- No - he said
- I mean what is the foundation of this case?
- It is made of concrete, brick and mortar - she responded.
- I mean - he continued
- What are your relations like?
- I have an aunt and uncle living here in town, and so do my husband's parents.
He said:
- Do you have a real grudge?
- No - she replied
- We have a two-car carport and have never really needed one.
- Please - he tried again
- is there any infidelity in your marriage?
- Yes, both my son and daughter have stereo sets. 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.
- I've never wanted a divorce. My husband does. He said he can't communicate with me!
