A 65 Corvette is pulled over for speeding. At the wheel is a
late-40's guy and in the other bucket seat is his wife, quietly crocheting an
afghan.
The officer says, "I clocked you at 80 mph, sir." The driver says,
"Gee, officer, I had it on cruise control at 65, perhaps your radar
needs calibrating." Not looking up from her afghan, his wife says
sweetly, Now don't be silly dear, you know very well this car doesn't have
cruise control." As the officer makes out the ticket, the driver looks
over at hiswife and growls, "Can't you keep your mouth shut for once?" The
wife smiles demurely and says "You should be thankful your radar detector
went off when it did." As the officer makes out a second ticket for the
illegal radar detector, the man glowers at his wife and says through clenched
teeth,"Dammit woman, shut your mouth! NOW!" The officer frowns
and says,
"And, I notice you're not wearing your seat belt, sir, that's
an automatic $75 fine." The driver says, "Yeah, well you see officer, I had
it on, but took it off when you pulled me over to get my license out of my
back pocket." The wife says, "Now dear, you know very well that you
didn't have your seat belt on, you never wear your seat belt when you're
driving the Corvette." And, as the officer makes out the third ticket the
driver turns to his wife and barks, "WHY DON'T YOU SHUT THE HELL UP" And the
officer looks over at the woman and says, "Does your husband always
talk to you this way, Ma'am?" "Oh heavens no, officer, only when he's been
drinking.
