The judge says to a double-homicide defendant: "You're charged with beating your colleague to death with a hammer."

All of a sudden a voice at the back of the courtroom yells out: "You bastard!"

The judge says: "You're also charged with beating your supervisor to death with a hammer."

The voice in the back of the courtroom yells out: "You f*cking bastard!"

The judge stops, and says to the guy in the back of the courtroom: "Sir, I can understand your anger and frustration at this crime. But no more outbursts from you, or I'll charge you with contempt. Is that a problem?"

The guy in the back of the court stands up and says: "It sure is. For 15 years, I've lived next door to that bastard, and every time I asked to borrow a hammer, he said he didn't have one."
