>>A police officer pulls over a speeding car. The officer says, "I
>>clocked you at 80 miles per hour, sir."
>>
>>The driver says, "Gee, officer, I had it on cruise control at 60,
>>perhaps your radar needs calibrating."
>>
>>Not looking up from her knitting the wife says sweetly from the
>>passenger seat, "Now don't be silly, dear, you know that this car
>>doesn't have cruise control."
>>
>>As the officer writes out the ticket, the driver looks over at his
wife
>>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 the second ticket for the illegal radar
>>detector unit, the man glowers at his wife and says through clenched
>>teeth, "Darn it, woman, can't
>>you keep your mouth shut?!"
>>
>>The officer frowns and says, "And I notice that 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 so that I could 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."
>>
>>And as the police officer is writing out the third ticket the driver
>>turns to his wife and barks, "FOR THE LAST TIME WOMAN, WHY DON'T YOU
>>SHUT UP?!"
>>
>>The officer looks over at the woman and asks, "Does your husband
always
>>talk to you this way, Ma'am?"
>>

>>"Oh, heavens no, officer. Only when he's been drinking."
