Bad jokes. Funny how wee things can call old jokes to mind.

A man is caught shoplifting and charged with stealing soap. His case comes before the judge, who pronounces him guilty and sentences him to 5 years in prison.

"What! Five years for nicking some soap, isn't that a little harsh?"
"Ah", says the judge, "you're lucky it wasn't life, boy".

I said it came to mind, I didn't say it was any good.
