A police officer in a small town stopped a motorist who was speeding
down Main Street. "Officer," the man began, "I can explain."
"No explanation needed!" snapped the officer. "I'm going to let you
cool your heels in jail until the chief gets back."
"But, officer, I have to tell you something." The man tried again.
"Just keep quiet! You're going to jail and I'm not interested in what
you have to say!" the officer barked.
A few hours later the officer looked in on his prisoner and
said, "Lucky for you that the chief is at his daughter's wedding. He'll
be in a good mood when he gets back."
"Don't count on it," answered the fellow in the cell. "I'm the groom."
