#062: South Africa - The evils of drugs

Gatiep and Frankie were picked up by the cops for smoking
dope and appeared in the magistrate's court on Friday before
the judge.

The judge said, "You seem like nice young men, and I'd like
to give you a second chance rather than jail time. I want
you to go out this weekend and try to show others the evils
of drug use and get them to give up drugs forever. I'll see
you back in court on Monday."

On Monday the two guys were back in court, and the judge said
to Frankie, "How did you do over the weekend?"

"Well, Your Honour, I persuaded 17 people to give up drugs
forever".

"17 people? That's wonderful! What did you tell them?"

"I used a diagram, Your Honour. I drew two circles like
this: O and o... and told them this (the big circle) is
your brain before drugs and this (small circle) is your
brain after drugs."

"That's admirable!" said the judge.

To Gatiep the judge said, "And you, how did you do?"

"Well, Your Honour, I persuaded 156 people to give up drugs
forever."

"156 people! That's amazing! How did you manage to do that?"

"Well, I used a similar approach. I drew two circles:
o and O and said (pointing' to the small circle) "this is
your asshole before going to prison..."
