How A Simple Conversation,

can go bad,


when I was pulled over for speeding, I told the officer, "I'm sorry, but the road seemed clear, and..."

 "How would you have reacted if Mister Fog had suddenly appeared?" he interrupted.

annoyed at his patronizing manner, I replied, "I suppose I would've applied Mr. Brake and summoned up Mr. and Mrs. Headlight!"

enunciating each syllable, the officer repeated, "How would you have reacted if mist.... or... fog had suddenly appeared?" it all went downhill from there.
