Give er Back
A man was driving home late one afternoon, and he was driving above
the
speed limit. He notices a police car with its red lights on in his
rear view
mirror. He thinks "I can outrun this guy," so he floors it and the
race is on. The cars
are racing down the highway -- 60, 70, 80, 90 miles an hour. Finally,
as his speedometer
passes 100, the guy figures "what the heck," and gives up. He
pulls over to the curb. The
police officer gets out of his cruiser and approaches the car. He leans
down and says "listen
mister, I've had a really lousy day, and I just want to go home. Give
me a good excuse and I'll
let you go." The man though for a moment and said..."Three weeks
ago, my wife ran off with a
police officer. When I saw your cruiser in my rear view mirror,
I thought you were that officer
and you were trying to give her back to me!"
