Joke

When the driver in front of my police car began weaving in and out of his lane, I quickly hit the sirens and pulled him over. As I approached his window, I was hit with the stench of alcohol.

“Sir, can you tell me when you started drinking and how much you’ve had?” I said.

“Well, Officer, I can’t tell you how much I’ve had,” he slurred. “But I started drinking in 1967.”
