the Florida state trooper

[coachmatt]

A Florida senior citizen drove his brand new Corvette convertible out of
the dealership.

Taking off down the road, he pushed it to 80 mph, enjoying the wind
blowing through what little hair he had left.
'Amazing,' he thought as he flew down I-75, pushing the pedal even more.
Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a Florida State Trooper, blue
lights flashing and siren blaring.




He floored it to 100 mph, then 110, then 120. Suddenly he thought, 'What
am I doing? I'm too old for this!' and pulled over to await the trooper's
arrival.
Pulling in behind him, the trooper got out of his vehicle and walked up
to the Corvette. He looked at his watch, then said, 'Sir, my shift ends in
30 minutes. Today is Friday. If you can give me a new reason for speeding –
a reason I've never before heard - I'll let you go.'
The old gentleman paused then said: 'Three years ago, my wife ran off
with a Florida State Trooper. I thought you were bringing her back.'


'Have a good day, Sir,' replied the trooper.
