A Florida senior citizen drove his brand new Corvette out of the dealership. Taking off down the road, he floored it to 80, enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had left. "Amazing," he thought as he flew down I-75, pushing down the pedal even more.
Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw the state trooper behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring. He floored it to 100, then 120. Suddenly he thought, "What am I doing? I'm too old for this," and he pulled over to await the trooper's arrival.
Pulling in behind him,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 good reason for speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."
The old gentleman paused. Then he said, "Years ago, my wife ran off with a Florida state trooper. I thought you were bringing her back."
"Have a nice day, Sir," replied the state trooper. "Have fun."
