Concord, N.H. (AP) -- A federal judge was driven to rhyme after receiving a hard-boiled egg in the mail from a prison inmate protesting his diet.
U.S. District Court Judge James Muirhead reached for Dr. Seuss'"Green Eggs and Ham" for inspiration after getting the egg from inmate Charles Jay Wolff.
"I do not like eggs in the file," Muirhead wrote. "I do not like them in any style. I will not take them fried or boiled. I will not take them poached or broiled. I will not take them soft or scrambled/Despite an argument well-rambled."
He then ordered the egg destroyed: "No fan I am/Of the egg at hand. Destroy that egg! Today! Today! Today I say! Without delay!"
Wolff sent the egg in a manila envelope as part of his complaint against state officials. Wolff, 61, says he is an Orthodox Jew and has accused prison officials of refusing to feed him a kosher diet. Wolff also says he cannot tolerate hard-boiled eggs and is suing the state Department of Corrections for $10 million.

A judge with a sense of humor, maybe suitable for the not-a-ping list.

I do not like this frivilous tort.
Its docketing I can't support.
This plantiff needs a severe correction,
With honey, fire ants, and his naked...liability.
