A squad car driver was covering a quiet beat out in the
sticks when he was amazed to find a former lieutenant
on the police force covering the beat. He stopped the
car and asked, "Why, Mike, this wouldn't be your new
beat out here in the sticks, would it?"
"That it is," Mike replied grimly, "ever since I arrested
the judge on his way to the masquerade ball."
"You mean you pinched his honor?" asked Pat.
"How was I to know that his convict suit was only a
costume?" demanded Mike.
"Well," mused Pat, "'tis life and there's a lesson in this
somewhere."
"That there is," replied Mike. ... "'Tis wise never to book
a judge by his cover."

"Has Anyone Ever Told You..."
After the Halloween party, as the couple was driving
home, the woman asks her husband,
"Honey, has anyone ever told you how handsome,
sexy and irresistible to women you are?"
The flattered husband said, "No, dear, they haven't."
The wife then softly inquired, "Then what the heck
gave you that idea at the party tonight?"
