He asked me to clarify, I told him we had just finished wrapping presents and I was going to bed when my wife told me I needed to get milk. When I asked why, she told me you can't have Christmas without milk.
He looked skeptical and asked if I was driving home from a party. I said no, I was getting milk.
He looked at me and said “Show me the milk.”
I reached down pulled up a gallon of milk.
That is the only speeding ticket that I've gotten out of in my life.
I got out of a ticket last Saturday. Virginia state cop nailed me doing 72 in a 55. I told him I was on my way to my best friend’s funeral, and the last time I got stopped by a cop was 8 years ago, for the same violation, on my way home from my father’s funeral. Told him I was so sad that I didn’t mind if he gave me a ticket. He was suspicious until I showed him the Google Maps printouts I had for my destination, but then he let me go. I’ll be good until the next time someone dies.
