Australian court case

    A lady about 8 months pregnant got on a bus. She noticed the man
    opposite her was smiling at her. She immediately moved to another
    seat. This time the smile turned into a grin, so she moved again.

    Everytime she moved the man seemed more amused. When on the
    fourth move, the man burst out laughing, she complained to the
    driver and he had the man arrested for harassment.

    The case came up in court and the judge asked the man (who was
    about 20 years old) what he had to say for himself.

    The man replied, 'Well your Honor, it was like this: When the lady got
    on the bus, I couldn't help but notice her condition.She sat under a
    sweets sign that said, "The Double Mint Twins are Coming," and I
    grinned. Then she moved and sat under a sign that said, "Logan's
    Liniment will reduce the swelling", and I had to smile. Then she placed
    herself under a deodorant sign that said, "William's Big Stick Did the
    Trick,"
    and I could hardly contain myself.

    BUT, your Honor, when she moved the fourth time and sat under a sign
    that said: "Goodyear Rubber could have prevented this Accident." ...
    I just lost it.'

    CASE DISMISSED!!'
