I thought this story was just too funny. I have no idea who wrote it, but I hope it brings you a laugh too.
Old Man, a Corvette, and Interstate 90
A Montana 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-90, pushing the pedal even
more.
Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a Montana 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 then said: "Three years ago, my wife
ran off with a Montana State Trooper. I thought you were bringing her
back.
Have a good day, Sir," replied the trooper.
