A police officer (who shall remain nameless) pulled over a red
Porsche after it had run a stop sign. "May I see your driver's
license and registration please?"

"What's the problem, officer?"

"Your just ran the stop sign back there at the last intersection."

"Oh, come on pal, there wasn't a car within miles of me".

"Nevertheless sir, you are required to come to a complete stop,
look both ways, and proceed with caution."

"you gotta be kidding me!"

"It's no joke, sir".

"Look, I slowed down almost to a complete stop, saw no one within
twenty miles, and proceeded with caution."

"That's beside the point, sir. You are supposed to come to a
complete stop, and you didn't. Now if I may see your license and.
. ."

"You've got a lot of time on your hands, PAL! What's the matter,
all the doughnut shops closed?"

"Sir, I'll overlook that last comment. Let me see your license and
registration immediately!"

"I will, if you can tell me the difference between slowing down,
and coming to a complete stop."

The police officer had enough. "Sir, I can do better than that."
He opened the car door, dragged the obnoxious motorist out, and
proceeded to methodically beat him over the head with his
nightstick.

"Now sir, would you like me to slow down or come to a complete
stop?"

An accountant was suffering from insomnia, so he goes to his doctor.

"Have you tried counting sheep?" the doctor asks.

"That's the problem," complains the accountant. "I make a mistake and it takes me three hours to find it!"

(Sorry - I saw the CPA and couldn't resist)
