A Florida 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 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 state trooper behind him, 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 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 said, "Years ago, my
wife ran off with a Florida
State Trooper. I thought you were him
bringing her back."
"Have a good day, sir," replied the trooper.
