But
officer...
警官,我有話要說......
A
police officer in a small town stopped a motorist
who was speeding down Main Street.
"But
officer." the man began, "I can explain".

"Just
be quiet," snapped the
officer. "I'm going to let you cool your heels in jail
until the chief gets back..."
"But
officer, I just wanted to say...."
"And
I said to keep quiet! You're going to jail!"
A
few hours later the officer looked in on his prisoner and said,
"Lucky for you that the chief is at his daughter's wedding.
He'll be in a good mood when he gets back."
"Don't
count on it," answered the fellow in the cell. "I'm
the groom."
