Mike: Hey Amanda, want to hear a knock-knock joke?
Amanda: I guess, but they're so corny! What is it?
Mike: Knock-knock!
Amanda: Who's there?
Mike: Mike.
Amanda: Mike who?
Mike: Mike cup is empty. Can I get a refill?
Amanda: Ha-ha. That's so funny I forgot to laugh. I like clever jokes and brain teasers better. See if you know the answer to this brain teaser: "That lawyer is my brother," testified 1 the accountant 2. But the lawyer testified he didn't have a brother. Who is lying?
Mike: Maybe the lawyer? That's just a guess, though.
Amanda: Neither one is lying. The accountant is the lawyer's SISTER!
Mike: You got me on that one. Listen to this one-liner and maybe you'll like it better than a knock-knock joke. What do you call a judge with no thumbs?
Amanda: I give up. What?
