"Driving Home"
A man goes to a party and has too much to
drink. His friends plead with him to let them
take him home. He says no -- he only lives
a mile away.
About five blocks from party, the police pull
him over for weaving and ask him to get out
of the car and walk the line. Just as he starts,
the police radio blares out a notice of a robbery
taking place in their area. The police tell the
drunk party animal to stay put, they will be right
back and they hop a fence and run down the
street to the robbery.
The guy waits and waits and finally decides to
drive home. When he gets there, he tells his
wife he is going to bed, and to tell anyone who
might come looking for him that he has the flu
and has been in bed all day.
A few hours later the police knock on the door.
They ask if Mr. X is there and his wife says yes.
They ask to see him and she replies that he is
in bed with the flu and has been so all day. The
police have his driver's license. They ask to see
his car and she asks why. They insist on seeing
his car, so she takes them to the garage and
opens the door where they find their police car,
with the lights still flashing.
True story, told by the driver at his first AA
meeting.
