Alabama Speed Trap

A man was speeding down a Alabama highway, feeling secure in a gaggle of cars all traveling at the same speed. However, as they passed a speed trap, he got nailed with an infrared speed detector and was pulled over.

“Ummm, yeah…” the startled man replied.

The officer grinned and added, “Did you ever catch ’em all?”

a waste water line through a recreational area?”

Bob: Could I have your fax number? We’re behind a firewall, so our email
doesn’t always get through.
