  2. An elderly woman was fined $100 for throwing out other people’s mail by mistake. The judge asked if she had anything to say before he decided punishment. The woman replied, “Well your honor, as you can see I am very old and frail. Throwing out mail was an honest mistake I greatly regret.

The next morning he peeked out his window and saw his neighbor Mrs. Smith taking mail out of his box. He ran outside yelling “Aha! I caught you! What do you have to say for yourself?” Mrs. Smith laughed and said “Oh my, I’m so sorry! You see, I picked up your mail by mistake again. Silly me, when will I learn?” The man felt bad and apologized for accusing her.

She rolled her eyes and said “Sir, you may have tampered with our equipment yesterday, but I still charged you for the missing nuts and bolts.”

Finally the supervisor went out to the back alley to investigate. He found poor Frank waist-deep in trash desperately trying to find the lost letters. “This dumpster is huge!” Frank said. “I think I’m just going to need to keep searching letter by letter until I find them all.” The supervisor slapped his palm to his forehead. “Oh no, Frank I was just kidding – that mail you lost was just a bunch of junk advertisements. I can’t believe you actually jumped in there!”
