A policeman pulls over an old man driving a pickup truck with the back overflowing with ducks. The officer sternly tells him, “Sir, you can’t have a flock of ducks wandering around downtown. Take them to the zoo immediately!” The old man nods politely and drives off.
The next day, the officer spots the same truck — still packed with ducks — but this time every duck is wearing sunglasses. Frustrated, he pulls the man over again and says, “I told you to take these ducks to the zoo!” The old man grins and replies, “I did! They loved it. Today they wanted to go to the beach!”
In another small-town encounter, a police officer stops a man for speeding down Main Street. “But officer, I can explain,” the man begins. “Be quiet!” the officer snaps. “You can cool your heels in jail until the chief gets back!” The man tries again, but the officer refuses to listen and locks him up.
Hours later, the officer checks on him and says, “You’re lucky — the chief is at his daughter’s wedding. He’ll be in a good mood.” The man sighs and replies, “Don’t count on it… I’m the groom.” 😄
