A police officer in a small town stopped a motorist who was speeding down Main
Street.

But, officer, the man began. I can explain.

Just be quiet, snapped the officer. I am going to let you cool your heels in
jail until the chief gets back.

But, officer, I just wanted to say…

And I said to keep quiet! You are going to jail!

A few hours later the officer looked in on his prisoner and said, Lucky for you
the chief is at his daughters wedding. He will be in a good mood when he gets
back.

Dont count on it, answered the fellow in the cell. I am the groom.
