My experience with judges is limited to one divorce, a couple of traffic fines and six hours of jury duty. I think few judges would be 
comfortable in with a barrel of monkeys. Humor is not their modus operandi. But here's a story of a judge who has a sense of humor, at least this once. From MSNBC:
"A federal judge, miffed at the inability of opposing attorneys to agree on even the slightest details of a lawsuit, ordered them to settle their latest dispute with a game of rock, paper, scissors. U.S. District Judge Gregory Presnell scolded both sides and ordered them to meet at a neutral location. If they can't agree on the neutral location, he said, they'll play on the steps of the federal courthouse. The winner gets to choose the location for the witness statement."
