An Air Force Colonel was driving in the housing area one day and approached
a stop sign. He barely slowed down and ran right through the stop sign after
glancing for traffic. What the officer didn't know was that a security policeman
was watching the intersection. The SP pulled out after him and stopped the car
two blocks away.
SP: "ID Card, License, registration and proof of insurance please."
Colonel: "Before I give it to you, tell me what the heck you stopped me
for, *Airman*."
SP: "Watch your tone sir; you ran that stop sign back there!"
Colonel: "Airman, I slowed down, what the heck is the difference?"
The SP pulled out his night-stick and began whacking the Colonel over the head
and shoulders. Bang! Bang! Whomp! Bang!
SP: "Now, Sir....do you want me to just slow down, or stop!!!?"
