Reminder Of A Joke
As I walked out of my house to get my newspaper, a guy passed me carrying a heavy case and a large stepladder.
It reminded me of Act 2 of a very old joke.
In Act 1, a guy walks across the stage carrying a case and he’s asked what he’s doing. He says that he’s a lawyer and he’s taking a case to court.
In Act 2, the guy walks back carrying the case and a ladder. His answer to the same question is that he’s taking the case to the High Court.
In Act 3, the guys walks back again, just carrying the ladder. This time his answer is that he lost the case.
I think I first saw it performed at a Scout camp, when I was about twelve.
