  1. A Judge the name of Porter was passing sentance on a man for being druink and he said, “I am going to give you the greatest punishment that the law can allow”, and he said “I am sure you will spend a good deal of that time in cursing whiskey.”
    “I will, my, Lord, and porter too,” said the man.
