A man was being tailgated by a stressed-out woman on a busy
boulevard.
Suddenly, the light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the
right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten
the red light by accelerating through the intersection.
The tailgating woman hit the roof, and the horn, screaming in
frustration as she missed her chance to get through the intersection
with him. As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window
and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer.
The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up. He took
her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted,
photographed, and placed in a cell.
After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened
the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting
officer was waiting with her personal effects.
He said, "I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up
behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping the guy off
in front of you, and cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed the 'Choose
Life' license plate holder, the 'What Would Jesus Do" bumper sticker,
the 'Follow Me to Sunday School' bumper sticker and the chrome-plated
Christian fish emblem on the trunk. Naturally, I assumed you had stolen
the car."

Thanks for a cute joke - but also a reminder that we need to be who and what
we say we are all the time, or it isn't worth much. Always look forward to
your contributions.
