Good Excuse
A man bought a new Mercedes to celebrate his wife
leaving him and was out on
the interstate for a nice evening drive.
The top was down, the breeze was blowing through
what was left of his hair
and he decided to open her up. As the needle
jumped up to 80 mph, he
suddenly saw flashing red and blue lights behind
him.
"There's no way they can catch a Mercedes," he
thought to himself and opened
her up further. The needle hit 90, 100.....Then
the reality of the situation
hit him. "What am I doing?" he thought and pulled
over.
The cop came up to him, took his license without
a word and examined it and
the car.
"It's been a long hard day, this is the end of
my shift and it's Friday the
13th. I don't feel like more paperwork, I don't
need the frustration or the
overtime, so if you can give me a really good
excuse for your driving that I
haven't heard before, you can go."
The guy thinks about it for a second and says,
"Last week my nagging wife
ran off with a cop. I was afraid you were trying
to give her back!"
"Have a nice weekend," said the officer.
