I am in love with Judge Judy

I have fallen madly in love with Judge Judy. She is the perfect woman, low maintenance- a black robe and an old white lace doily is all she wears. She can solve any family dispute in ten minutes flat, twenty minutes if the rightful ownership of a Harley Davidson is involved. What more could a man ask? I cannot see enough of her programs but I am too overcome to set the VCR to record them. Doug Anderson has not replied to my stamp addressed E-Mails to find out where "The Best of Judge Judy" videos may be obtained.

An Australian lawyer told Radio National's breakfast program (another of my obsessions) that if Judge Judy's type of justice came to Australia all the lawyers, judges and court staff would be out of a job! What a woman!

When I confessed to my wife about my obsession, she spent $280.00 of her and Medicare's money to send me to a leading psychiatrist. He was also a fan of Judge Judy and we spent the 45 minutes discussing her various cases. My wife was furious and demanded that Capital Ten replace Judge Judy with repeats of Roseanne or she would blow up their Goulburn translator building on Mount Grey.
