A man seeing flashing red and blue lights in his rear view mirror pulls
to
the side of the road.
A minute or so after coming to a stop, a police
officer approaches the car.
The man says: What's the problem officer?
Officer: You were going 75 miles an hour in a 55 mile an hour zone. I'm
afraid I'm going to have to ticket you.
Man: No sir, I was going a little over 60.
Wife: Oh, Harry. You were going at least 80! [The man gives wife a dirty
look.]
Officer: I'm also going to give you a ticket for your broken tail light.
Man: Broken tail light? I didn't know about a broken tail light!
Wife: Oh Harry, you've known about that tail light for weeks! [The man
gives his wife another a dirty look.]
Officer: I'm also going to give you a citation for not wearing your seat
belt.
Man: Oh, I just took it off when you were walking up to the car.
Wife: Oh, Harry, you never wear your seat belt!
The man turns to his wife and yells: For cryin' out loud, can't you just
shut up your ugly face?!
The officer turns to the woman and asks, "Ma'am, Does your husband talk
to you this way all the time?"
Wife says: "No officer, Only when he's been drinking."
