A Tough Ghoice

The wife of the man on trial for burglary was a witness for the defense, and was being vigorously and sarcastically cross-examined by the prosecutor. She was losing her temper but he didn't sense it until too late. So he asked:

"Madam, isn't it a fact that you knew your husband was a burglar before you married him? Answer yes or no."

"r did."

"Then, may I ask, knowing that fact, how you came to rharry him?"

"Because, you see," she said iciiy, "I was getting a bit old and couldn't be choosy, and the only choice I had was between a burglar and a lawyer, so, naturally, I took the burglar."
