A policeman pulls over an elderly man driving a pickup truck, the bed overflowing with ducks. The officer says sternly, “Sir, you can’t have a flock of ducks wandering around downtown. Take them to the zoo immediately!”
The old man nods, agrees, and drives off.
The next day, the officer sees the same truck, still packed with ducks—but now every duck is wearing sunglasses. Frustrated, he pulls the man over again. “I thought I told you to take these ducks to the zoo!”
The old man grins and says, “I did! But now the little rascals want to go to the beach!”
In another small-town moment, a police officer stopped a motorist speeding down Main Street.
“But officer,” the man began…
“Just be quiet,” snapped the officer. “You’re going to cool your heels in jail until the chief gets back.”
“But officer, I just wanted to say—”
“And I said keep quiet! You’re going to jail!”
