A man in his mid forties brought a new BMW and was out on the interstate for a nice evening drive. The top was down, the breeze was blowing through what was left of his hair, and he decided to see what the engine had.

As the needle jumped up to 80 mph, he suddenly saw flashing red and blue lights behind him.

"There's no way they can catch a BMW", he thought to himself and increased the speed even further.

The needle hit 90, then 100, and finally the reality hit him and he knew he shouldn't run from the police, so he slowed down and pulled over.

The cop came up to him, took his proferred license without a word, and examined it and the car.

"It's been a long day, this is the end of my shift and it's Friday the 13th. I don't feel like doing any more paperwork, so if you can give me an excuse for your driving that I haven't heard before, you can go."

The man thinks for a second, and then says, "Last week, my wife ran off with a cop. I was afraid you were trying to give her back."

"Have a nice weekend", says the cop and he walks away.
