A police officer attempts to stop a car

for speeding and the guy gradually

increases his speed until he's topping

100 mph.

The man eventually realizes he can't

escape and finally pulls over.

The cop approaches the car and says,

"It's been a long day and my shift is

almost over, so if you can give me a

good excuse for your behavior, I'll let

you go."

The guy thinks for a few seconds and

then says,

"My wife ran away with a cop about a

week ago. I thought you might be that

officer trying to give her back!"
