In reply to: Ed Harris (Venezia) 's message, "Hm." on 15:03:17 12/05/04 Sun

An illegal immigrant (forget where from - let's say the former Yugoslavia) was appearing in court in Sydney and likely to be deported. As he was waiting, he was looking carefully around the recently completed court building, taking note of certain details. The judge noted this and asked him why he was so intrigued by the building, to which the man replied,

"I think we did a good job with this one, but there's some things we should come back and fix up."

"You mean to say," said the judge, "that you built this courthouse?"

"My company did, yes," said the man.

"Well," said the judge, "You can stay then. If you have been here hard at work all this time, I would be a fool to send you away now."
