A senior citizen drove his brand new Corvette convertible out of the
dealership. Taking off down the road, he floored it to 80 mph, enjoying the
wind blowing through what little gray hair he had left. \"Amazing,\" he
thought as he flew down I-94, pushing the pedal even more. Looking in his
rear view mirror, he saw a state trooper behind him, 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 walked up to the Corvette, looked at his
watch, and said, \"Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes. Today is Friday. If you
can give me a reason for speeding that I\'ve never heard before, I\'ll let you
go.\"
The old gentleman paused. Then he said, \"Years ago, my wife ran off
with a State trooper. I thought you were bringing her back.\"
\"Have a good day, sir,\" replied the trooper.
