On my way home from my niece's graduation today (thank you to the 2 of you who cared ), I saw: 10 dead deer, 2 dead wild turkeys, a red-tailed hawk (alive, thank god), and a state trooper.

I got stopped because the strap that has been holding my muffler on is now half off. Yes indeedy, it's been that way for at least a month. As he went back to his car to write me a warning, he noticed that my passenger side mirror was gone. Yes indeedy, hasn't been there for over a year now.

I got a warning. No points, no ticket to pay, no big deal. But after he looked at my license and registration, he asked .... "Do you have any weapons in the car?"

Can somebody tell me what kind of criminal is going to answer that honestly?

"Sure, officer, I have 3 AK-47s and some sawed-off shotguns in the trunk. Let me just pop it open for you so you can take a look."

I mean, you know?

I don't get it.
