** A police officer pulled over a driver and informed him that, because he was wearing his seat belt, he had just won $1,000 in a safety competition. “What are you going to do with the prize money?” the officer asked. The man responded, “I guess I’ll go to driving school and get my license.” At that moment, his wife, who was seated next to him, chimed in, “Officer, don’t listen to him. He’s a smart Alec when he’s drunk.” This woke up the guy in the back seat, who, when he saw the cop blurted out, “I told you we wouldn’t make it very far in this stolen car!” At that moment there was a knock from the trunk and a voice asked, “Are we over the border yet?”

** I went to my nearby pharmacy and asked to speak to the pharmacist on duty. As I waited, I took out my little brown bottle, along with a teaspoon and set them up on the counter. The pharmacist came over, smiled, and asked if he could help me. I said, “Yes! Could you please taste this for me?” Seeing a senior citizen, the pharmacist went along. He took the spoon, put a tiny bit of the liquid on it, put it on his tongue and swished it around. Then, with a stomach-churning look on his face, he spat it out on the floor and began coughing. When he was finally finished, I looked him right in the eye and asked, “Now, does that taste sweet to you?” The pharmacist, shaking his head back and forth with a venomous look in his eyes yelled, “ABSOLUTELY NOT!” I said, “Oh, thank God! That’s a real relief! My doctor told me to have a pharmacist test my urine for sugar.”
