Driving to work, a gentleman had to swerve to avoid
a box that fell out of a truck in front of him. Seconds
later, a policeman pulled him over for reckless driving.

Fortunately, another officer had seen the carton in
the road. The policemen stopped traffic and recovered the
box. It was found to contain large upholstery tacks.

"I'm sorry sir," the first trooper told the driver,
"but I am still going to have to write you a ticket."

Amazed, the driver asked for what. The trooper replied, ...
"Tacks evasion."

A New York boy was being led through the swamps of
Louisiana by his cousin. "Is it true that an alligator
won't attack you if you carry a flashlight ?"

The cousin smirked and replied, "Depends on how fast ya
carry the flashlight."
