A 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 gray hair he had left. “Amazing!” he thought as he flew down I-29, pushing the pedal even more. Looking in his rearview mirror he saw a state trooper behind him, lights flashing and sirens blaring. He floored it to 100 mph, then 110, then 120. Suddenly he thought, “What am I doing? I’m too old for this!” He pulled over and waited for the officer’s arrival. 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 state trooper. I thought you were bringing her back.” “Have a good day, sir” replied the trooper.

~ A woman, cranky because her husband was late coming home again, decided to leave a note saying, “I’ve had enough and I’ve left you. Don’t bother coming after me.” She then hid under the bed to wait for his reaction. After a short while the husband comes home and she could hear him in the kitchen before he came into the bedroom. She could see him walk towards the dresser and pick up the note. After a few minutes he wrote something on it before picking up the phone and calling someone. “She’s finally gone… yeah I know, it’s about time! I’m coming to see you. Put on that sexy French nightie. I love you and can’t wait to see you!” He hung up, grabbed his keys and left. She heard the car drive off as she came out from under the bed. Seething with rage and tears in her eyes she grabbed the note to see what he wrote. “I can see your feet. We are out of bread. Be back in five minutes.”
