The Friday Funny.... The Speeder

An old man walked into a car dealership and bought a brand new Chevy Corvette. As he pulls away from the dealership, he can feel the power and decides to take it out on the highway. He feels great going faster and faster, until suddenly he sees flashing lights in his rear view mirror. Not thinking, he pushes the gas pedal to the floor and soon he's well over 100mph, when he realizes what he's doing, slows down and finally pulls over.

When the officer arrives at his door, he asks for license and registration and comments on what a great looking car the old man has. After a moment of looking things over, he tells the old man his shift ends in 10 minutes and if he can give him an excuse for speeding that he's never heard before, he will let him go without a citation.

Well, the old man thinks for a few seconds and says: "Officer, 25 years ago my wife ran off with a highway patrolman, and when I saw your lights in my rear view mirror, for a moment there, I thought you were bringing her back". The officer handed his license and registration to him and said "Have a nice day, Sir". (author unknown)
