There was a senior citizen who bought a brand new Mercedes 500SL
convertible. He took off down the road, flooring it up to 80 mph and
enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had left on his
head. "This is great," he thought and floored it some more.

Then he looked in his rearview mirror. There was a highway patrol Trooper behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring. " I can get away from him
with no problem" thought the man as he floored it some more and flew
down the road at over 100 mph. Then he thought,"What am I doing? I'm
too old for this Kind of thing" and pulled over to the side of the road
and waited for the State trooper to catch up with him.

The trooper pulled behind the Mercedes and walked up to the man.
"Sir,"He said, looking at his watch. "My shift ends in 30 minutes and
today is Friday the 13th. If you can give me one good reason why you
were speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."

The man looked back at the trooper and said, "Years ago my wife ran off
with a state trooper, and I thought you were bringing her back."
The state trooper replied, "Have a nice day".
