It's usually harder to get a Driver's License, than it is to vote. In Kalifornica one no longer even has to be a citizen. What's wrong with that picture?!
I was driving round the countryside and I stopped to ask direction from an elderly man on a bicycle.
He was an old farmer wearing a shirt and trousers with his braces (trouser suspenders) hanging loose on his side. After thanking him for his directions I set off once again.
As I drove away slowly I saw him in my rear view mirror following me on his bicycle.
I continued driving and noticed he was still following me. I thought it strange that he could cycle at that pace.
I accelerated a bit more and to my amazement the old man was still keeping up with me, cycling only a few feet behind me. I drove faster. 50 miles an hour, 60, 70 and he was still there behind me on his bike. He was moving frantically left and right trying to overtake me.
I stopped the car abruptly.
He came fast behind me and overtook me at speed. Some hundred yards ahead he turned round and sped fast back again towards my stationary car.
He passed my car cycling behind me and then returned again cycling in front of me.
After doing this backwards and forwards a few times he then stopped next to my car window and said: “My braces got caught on your rear bumper!”
@Victor ~ That's one of my favorite Jerry Clower jokes! Worth a giggle every time. @Linda Eller ~ Thank you so much. Humor is always best with a bite in it. Luv ~:)
