THE BEST DEFENSE — by Steve Nadis
A Massachusetts man, who’s a suspect in a hit-and-run car crash, came up with the best defense upon being questioned by the police, and Alan Dershowitz wasn’t even there to represent him. He claimed his mother did it–an argument that underlies much of Sigmund Freud’s writing and kept him in business for decades. On some level, the guy (the Massachusetts guy, not Freud) may be right, even if his mother was not in the car at the time of the accident. And remember these important four words the next time you’re charged with a crime or find yourself in some other kind of legal jam: “My mother did it.”

No, please, no! After 20 years of being blamed for everything my kid did wrong (and not getting any credit when she did right) my kid is finally grown and out of the house. Enough already! It can’t be my fault forever . . . that’s just unfair. And probably my mother’s fault.
You’re right Roses & learning fast. It’s not your fault; it’s your mother’s fault!
You mean that voice up there is my mother’s? Hm, I thought it sounded familiar…
Now you’re getting the picture.
Anybody knows that all you have to do is spend some time on the couch to get deprogrammed if you want to — all it takes is time and money.
And I’ve got neither.
