A Judge With a Sense of Humor?

By NBlack

Perhaps.

My offer of proof:  U.S. District Judge Beverly B. Martin's first footnote in an Order in MC Asset Recovery v. Southern Co., No. 1:06-cv-00417:

1 Essentially, in the spirit of an old Woody Allen joke, Southern requests more time to finish a deposition that it apparently believes has not been very helpful.  According to the joke, ?two elderly women are at a Catskill mountain resort, and one of ?em says, ?Boy, the food at this place is really terrible.?  The other one says, ?Yeah, I know; and such small portions.??  See Annie Hall (Rollins-Joffe Prods. 1977).
