A speeding businessman tried to outrun a cop. He soon came to his senses and stopped. The cop said, “Look, I’m just going off duty. If you can give me an excuse I haven’t heard before, I’ll forget about it.”
“It’s like this, officer. Last week, my wife ran off with a policeman. I thought you were bringing her back.”
“Have a nice night, sir.”
Excuses, excuses...
We've created this area in the hope of seeing material ranging from some well-told (or well retold) jokes to original writing with a humorous slant, or anything else that might appeal to the kind of person who enjoys playing with words more than people. That probably means someone like yourself. N.B. -- Postings preceded by ** contain some sexual or risqué content. (Makes them easier to find.)
