A senior citizen in Florida bought a brand new Corvette
convertible. He took off down the road, flooring it to 80
mph and enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair
he had left on his head. "This is great," he thought
as he roared up I-75. He pushed the pedal to the metal even
more. Then he looked in his rear view mirror and saw a highway
patrol trooper behind him, blue lights flashing and siren
blaring. "I can get away from him with no problem"
thought the man and he tromped it some more and flew down
the road at over 100 mph. Then 110, 120 mph.
Then he thought, "What am I doing? I'm too old for
this kind of thing." He pulled over to the side of
the road and waited for the trooper to catch up with him.
The trooper pulled in behind the Corvette and walked up
to the man. "Sir," he said, looking at his watch.
"My shift ends in 10 minutes and today is Friday. If
you can give me a reason why you were speeding that I've
never heard before, I'll let you go." The man looked
at the trooper and said, "Years ago my wife ran off
with a Florida State Trooper, and I thought you were bringing
her back"
"Have a good day, Sir," said the Trooper
