Years ago a judge was in an adjoining county holding court and an obvious alcoholic told him that he had never missed a day of drinking. The following conversation took place:
Judge: Is there any set of circumstances where you could forsee not drinking?
Defendant: No
Judge: Would you quit if the sun didn’t come up tomorrow?
Defendant: No
Judge: Would you quit if a cow jumped over the moon?
Defendant: No
Finally exasperated and a frustrated BUC”S fan for 20 pitiful years the judge asked:
Would you quit if the Tampa Bay Bucs won the super bowl?
Defendant: Yes.
The judge notes that years later the BUCS finally did win the Super bowl and he is still looking for this defendant.
