Default funny thing happened on the way to church

so the short story is on the way to church was running late. looked to the right and on the shoulder i see a CHP motor officer pointing his radar at me, crap i look down and i'm doing like 90! crap crap. anyway after a brief conversation he hands me back my stuff and said to slow down. i thanked him and got the heck out of there!

now if you want the long story here it is. its pretty funny.

so like i said i was running late i had to run back into the shed and find a special tool for removing the cartridge on a moen shower valve. (remember this) i also took seperate cars than my wife because she didnt want to go with me to fix the valve. (remember this also) i since were running late i figure ill get there first and save my wife a seat (wrong choice) so i get on the freeway and nail it thats when i see him. (see above) so i start over to the right and pull over. crap crap crap. he walks up to the pass window and said "good morning" i say yea and sorry im running late for church. he could tell i was stresed " well lets start with your licence" ok and a say dang i usually dont go this fast but i was running late for church and my wife was ahead of me and BTW she is gonna kill me. so he goes back to his bike and comes back a few min latter. " so wheres your church" i say garden grove (about 20 min away) " and what time" (about 10 min now) "and why did you take seperate cars" so i say well i wish we didnt at this point and i tell him about forgetting the tool and fixing the shower for a friend after mass and wife not wanting to come with. i even showed him the tool it was on the floor. and my church books were on the pass seat. again with the sorry thats when he said. "stop" (talking that is) and he hands me back the lic and stuff and said "slow down and have a good day!

Probably more to do with being courteous than being lucky. Being a little older (like me) and being on the way to church probably didn't hurt either!

Being polite, a story that makes sense and visual evidence to support the story... works almost everytime!

Nice story!
