"Jury"
A lawyer addresses an all male jury:
"Gentlemen, shall we cast this beautiful,
lonely young lady into a dim cell in a prison,
or shall we return her to her oceanside
beach condo, Ocean City, telephone
Number 555-4531?"

"Court"
The defendant and his lawyer are in the courtroom,
the man being charged with theft. The lawyer tells
the crusty old judge, "My lord, my client has produced
receipts for, firstly the high speed modem."
"High-speed modem?" questions the judge. "Yes,"
replies the lawyer, "It allows computers to communicate
over vast distances at high rates of speed. It allows
email and something called cybersex in AOL chatrooms,
your honor."
"Cybersex?," says the judge, "You mean sex through a
modem? You mean sex on a monitor? Good lord, the
morals of this society! Sex should be a natural event of
nature!"
"Secondly, my lord," continues the lawyer, "My client can
produce a receipt for the 12-speed cd-rom."
"12-speed cd-rom?" queries the judge. "Yes my lord, it
enables millions of bits of information to be read off a
small disk."
"And I suppose most of this "information" is cybersex
related... Modern technology and modern society, baffling,
just baffling." comments the judge. "I'm appalled at what
technology is doing to society these days."
"Thirdly my lord, my client can produce a receipt for the
super deluxe inflatable milk maid, whatever *that* is."
"Oh, that's the one with the silicone breasts and real
hair," replies the judge.
