A senior citizen drove his brand new Corvette 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 the highway patrol 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 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.

Great joke, Ralph.

I've heard it once before in North Carolina, but good jokes never die.

I enjoyed the profile of you in this year's MAX program. What a collection !!!

Another recycled one goes as follows:

A young man zoomed through a speed trap in the afternoon and got pulled over.

The policeman said: "I've been waiting for you all day, son"

The young man replied "well, I got here as quick as I could, sir"

And got let off

Kind of like when the fire dept inspector showed up at work and said he was there to do a fire inspection'

I told him we didn't have any right now but would be sure to call when we did.

Glad he had a sense of humor!

Love it !
