cruel and unusual joke:A woman was found guilty in court of a traffic violation,

and when asked for her occupation, she said she was a school teacher.

The judge rose from the bench and said: “Ma’am, I have waited years for a school teacher to appear before this court.”

“Why is that Your Honor?” asked the teacher.

The judge smiled with delight and said: “I’m going to need you to sit down at that table and write ‘I will not run red a light’ 500 times.”
