Richard bought a brand new Holden Monaro. He took off down the road,
pushed it up to 150 kmph,and was enjoying the wind blowing through his
(thinning) hair.
"This is great," he thought and accelerated to an even higher speed.
Then, he looked in his rear-view mirror, and there was a Police Car
behind him, blue lights flashing. "I can get away from him with no
problem" thought Richard, and he floored it some more, and flew down the
road at over 210 kmph to escape being stopped.
He then thought, "What the hell am I doing? I'm too old for this kind
of thing" and pulled over to the side of the road, and waited for the
Police car to catch up with him.
The Policeman pulled in behind the Monaro and walked up on the driver's
side. "Sir my Shift ends in five minutes and today is Friday the 13th.
If you can give me a good reason why you were speeding that I've never
heard before, I'll let you go."
The man looked back at the Policeman and said, "Last week my wife ran
off with a Policeman, and I thought you were bringing her back."
The Policeman said, "Have a nice day."
Good one Ceili. One question though how did a guy in a canuck joke end up driving a Holden Monaro.
I get the joke (and I like it) but please tell the stewpid Yank what a Holden Manaro is...
(thot it was a bike but you don't floor bikes, or am I just being picky?)
There's a guy driving down the road in his corvette. He sees a little kid on a bicycle, huffing and puffing his way up a hill. The guy in the 'Vette stops the car and asks the kid if he's ok. The kid says "Mister, I'm really tired and I still have a mile to go before I get home."
The guy feels sorry for the kid and says, "I'll tell you what son, I've got a length of rope in my car. I'll tie one end to the back of my car and the other to your handlebars. Then I'll gently pull you home."
The kid is very happy with the idea.
As an afterthought the guy points to the horn the kid has on his handlebar (the kind where you squeeze the rubber ball) and tells the kid, "If I get going too fast for you, just honk your horn and I'll slow down."
They take off. Everything is going fine. The guy stops at an intersection and a dude in a souped-up Camaro pulls alongside him and begins to rev the engine. The guy in the vette thinks, "No way am I going to lose a race to a stupid Camaro."
The light turns green and they both burn rubber. Soon they are neck and neck at speeds of over 130 miles per hour.
They whiz by a speed trap. The cop calls ahead to another car. "Car 12! Car !2" he yells, "You're not going to believe what is coming your way. A Corvette and a Camaro are drag racing and I clocked them at 130."
"What's so strange about that?' radios the other cop, "those are fast cars."
"The first cop says, "The strange thing is, there's a kid on a bike behind them, honking like hell to pass."
Holden = Car maker from Australia owned by GM.
Monaro = A two door coupe made by Holden.
As of next year all you "stewpid yank's" will be able to buy one badged up as a Pontiac GTO. As far as I know they have never been sold to Canada, thus my confusion.
I thought pontiac was dropping the gto name -- oh, wait, they're bringing it back... it won't be the same, said the old Jan 'n' Dean fan...
Just a joke boys, I have no idea from where it came, it just tickled my funny bone.
Ceili
hahaha!!!!!!!! That's a riot, LOL!
