Police Comments
These 16 police comments were taken off actual police car videos around the country:
#16:”You know, stop lights don’t come any redder than the one you just went through.”
#15:”Relax, the handcuffs are tight because they’re new. They’ll stretch after you wear them a while.”
#14:”If you take your hands off the car, I’ll make your birth certificate a worthless document.”
#13:”If you run, you’ll only go to jail tired.”
#12:”Can you run faster than 1,200 feet per second? Because that’s the speed of the bullet that’ll be chasing you.”
#11: “You don’t know how fast you were going? I guess that means I can write anything I want to on the ticket, huh?”
#10: “Yes, sir, you can talk to the shift supervisor, but I don’t think it will help. Oh, did I mention that I’m the shift supervisor?”
#9: “Warning? You want a warning? O.K., I’m warning you not to do that again or I’ll give you another ticket.”
#8: “The answer to this last question will determine whether you’re drunk or not. Was Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?”
#7: “Fair? You want me to be fair? Listen, fair is a place where you go to ride on rides, eat cotton candy and corn dogs and step in monkey crap.”
#6: “Yeah, we have a quota. Two more tickets and my wife gets a toaster oven.”
#5: “In God we trust, all others we run through NCIC.”
#4: “How big were those ‘Just two beers’ you say you had?”
#3: “No, sir, we don’t have quotas anymore. We used to, but now we’re allowed to write as many tickets as we can.”
#2: “I’m glad to hear that Chief (of Police) Hawker is a personal friend of yours. It’s good you know someone who can post your bail.”
AND THE WINNER IS…
#1: “You didn’t think we give pretty women tickets? You’re right, we don’t. Sign here.”

The Meaning of Service
At one time in my life, I thought I had a handle on the meaning of the word “service”: “It’s the act of doing things FOR other people.”
Then I heard these terms which reference the word “service”:
Internal Revenue Service
Postal Service
Telephone Service
Civil Service
City and County Public Service
Customer Service
Service Stations
Then I became confused about the word “service.” This is not what I thought “service” meant.
So today, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of them said he had hired a bull to “service” a few of his cows.
BAM! It all came into perspective. Now I understand what all those “service” agencies are doing TO us.
I hope you now are as enlightened as I am.

Problem Name
The famous Olympic skier Picabo Street (pronounced “Peek-A-Boo”) is not just an athlete. She is now a nurse currently working at the Intensive Care Unit of a large metropolitan hospital. She is not permitted to answer the hospital telephones. It caused too much confusion when she would answer the phone and say, “Picabo, ICU.”
