The Wife From Hell :o)

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 gun needs calibrating."

Not looking up from her knitting the wife says:"Now don't be silly dear, you know that is 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 please 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 growls 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 your'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, WHY DON'T YOU PLEASE SHUT UP?" The officer looks over at the woman and asks, "Does your husband always talk to you this way, Ma'am?"

( I love this part...)

She answered, "Only when he's been drinking."

Glad you both liked it, and hope your friends get a good laugh too, Claire. I love making people laugh, it's good for the soul. :o)

I've for years told a short version of this one, but love this longer version.

If anyone wants to have a real good laugh all they have to do is say... Alice. Hah, hah, hah. Oops, sorry about that. Have you been behaving yourself? Had a birthday did you. Are you telling how old (or young) you are? Sorry for not reading your blogs sooner but have been in a blog funk lately. Hopefully will be pulling out of it. Be good.
