Pop Quiz, Hot Shot

Maths Question:

What is 89mph minus 70mph

Answer: $US125

(Yeah pretty naughty huh? I still couldnt believe the fact that if I was travelling at 75mph, it would have cost me $US110. No wonder everyone over here speeds - its called "VALUE FOR MONEY"!. In Australia, this little stunt (145kph in a 110kph zone) would have cost me something like 700 bucks and 9 pts or something.)

Physics Question:

If Car A is travelling at 89mph and Car B is travelling at 45mph, what is the realtive difference between the two cars?

Answer: $US130

(Apparently they feel it is 'more dangerous' to overtake somebody in a 45mph work zone than it is doing 20mph over the speed limit!! Americans huh!)

English Question:

What would be the most appropriate response to the following: "Here is your license, here is your ticket for doing 89mph in a 70mph zone, here is your ticket for overtaking in a "No Passing" zone, here is you warning for doing 89mph in a 45mph work zone. Are there any questions?"

A) Too scared to give me all three, huh?
B) Why is your head up your ass?
C) Man, you had a good hiding spot. I bet your the big daddy in the cop shop.
D) Thanks!

Answer: D)

(I had to do one thing right)

phill, the "talk" you describe is only ever used at football games when the knights lose after being up by 20pts (also note: alcohol may have a slight effect also) to the damn warriors

quan, yes, i am extremely funny and im glad you have realised this and reported to all blog readers!! phill please note quans msg

dave, did you really calculate these comparisons - im impressed but at the same time disappointed that i cant buy kimbo 63 bowls of chilli for a while!!

haha dad, yeah thanks - i look forward to the day i get home to 100 overdue fines!! i still maintain the view that the cop was a wank and he shoulda let me go cause i was aussie. oh well!!

Mr Bromley

Good to see that you are treating the Americans and their fine country with total disdain. I believe that it would have been very difficult to talk your way out of it, as the officer would more than likely have had an IQ less than the number of inches in a fat schweinswurst. I am impressed, especially with the speeding in a work zone part. It's a shame that it wasn't an unmarked car with no lights - then you could have led him on a merry pursuit and then pleaded insanity. Then again, there always was the other option of potentially offering some sort of favour to Mr policeman. You know what I mean geezer?

BROMMLES! Naughty naughty naughty! I think Kimbo should use that chain Fred suggests for snlwy weather and give you a solid whipping.

Now I know Kimbo was asleep (poor tired darling) so had no fault in this!

You drive carefully with such precious cargo on board! Or else you will have my wrath to deal with upon your return ... you know, all those chases around the kitchen bench! And I'll have that famous de-nackering tool and rings! (Remember how Kimbo helps me to catch you? There'll be NO ESCAPE!)

So glad you only got fined, not killed!
