I usually don't appreciate some of the jokes posted here, but this one I just received seems particularly clever, clean and funny, so.......

"The Florida State Trooper

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

He looked in his rear view mirror and there was a Florida Highway Patrol
Trooper behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blasting. "I can get away
from him with no problem" thought the man and 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 in 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 a 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, "Last week my wife ran off
with a State Trooper, and I thought you were bringing her back.

"The State Trooper said, "Have a nice day."
