Old man and the police officer - YDG

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 to the metal
even more.

Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a Florida Highway Patrol car behind
him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring.

"I can get away from him - no problem!" thought the elderly gentleman as he
floored it to 100mph, then 110, then 120mph.

Suddenly, he thought, "What on earth am I doing? I'm too old for this
nonsense!", pulled over to the side of the road and waited for the Trooper
to catch up with him.

Pulling in behind him, the Trooper walked up to the driver's side of 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 why you were speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."

The man, looking very seriously at the Trooper, said, "Years ago, my wife
ran off with a Florida State Trooper. I thought you were bringing her back."

"Have a good day, Sir," said the Trooper.
