Good Morning, Again, Everyone: Another goodie, from friend Basil, of Edmonton. Being a sometime trucker myself the final line is one I wish that I could have thought of first! Enjoy! Earle - Grande Prairie AB ----------------- G'day Earle This short one appealed to my sense of humour, as it is the type of retort that I find myself making more and more as I age and turn into the curmudgeon that I've always wanted to be ... :-) (Besides, this happens frequently enough in Edmonton to be extremely topical). -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- A truck driver is driving along on the freeway. A sign comes up that reads "Low bridge ahead." Before he knows it the bridge is right ahead of him and he gets stuck under the bridge. Cars are backed up for miles. Finally, a police car comes up.

The truck driver says, "No, I was delivering this bridge and ran out of gas." -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
