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 bringing her back."
"Have a good day, sir," replied the trooper.
