Police jokes
A
squad car driver was covering a quiet
beat out in the sticks when he was
amazed to find a former lieutenant
on the police force covering the
beat.
He stopped the car
and asked, "Why, Irish Mike, this wouldn't be your
new beat out here
in the sticks, would it?"
"That it is, "Irish Mike replied
grimly, "ever since I arrested the
judge on his way to the masquerade
ball."
"You mean you pinched his honor?" asked Pat.
"How
was I to know that his convict suit was only a costume?"
demanded
Mike.
"Well," mused Pat, "there's a lesson in this
somewhere."
"That there is," replied Irish Mike...." 'Tis wise never to book a
judge by his cover."
