A joke about the , " Fortune Teller.".

[Stuart G]

During a recent outing in New Orleans, a woman sneaked off to visit
a fortune teller of some repute..
In a dark and hazy room, peering into a crystal ball,
the mystic delivered grave news. "There's no easy way to say
this, so,
I'll just be blunt: Prepare yourself to be a widow. Your husband will
die a violent and horrible death this year."

Visibly shaken, the woman stared at the fortune teller's lined face,
then at
the single flickering candle, then down at her hands. She took a few
deep
breaths to compose herself. She simply had to know. She met the
fortune teller's dark gaze, steadied her voice, and asked, "Will I be acquitted?"
