This Middle aged man was going through his mid-life crisis so he went out and bought him a new bright red Corvette. So he decided to take his new Vette on a test drive down the interstate one day.

He got up to about 85 mph and all of a sudden he saw this highway patrolman with his blue lights and siren blaring coming toward him. He decided he and his new Corvette would outrun the officer. So the man sped up to 95 mph,and then to 105 mph, but the patrolman was still coming.

The man finally came to his senses and said to himself, "This is crazy, I could go to jail for this," so he pulled over.

The patrolman came to the car and told the man, "It has been a long day and I am tired. If you can give me an excuse no one else has ever given me I will let you go."

So the man told the officer, "Last night my wife ran off with a patrolman and when I saw you chasing me I thought you were trying to bring her back."

The officer looked at the man and said, "Have a nice day."

Don’t you find it Funny that after Monday(M) and Tuesday(T), the rest of the week says WTF? and have you ever noticed that not one man in a beer commercial has a beer belly.

35. You're over 40, therefore you are old. Now, when I cross the 40 year mark, that will be an amazingly young age.
