Flat Tire
Had a flat tire yesterday, so I got out of the car and opened
the trunk.
I took out my cardboard men, unfolded them, and stood
them at therear of my car, facing oncoming traffic. They
look so life-like you wouldn't believe it!
Cars started slowing down, looking at my life-like men,
which made it safer for me to work at the side of the road.
Traffic started backing up. Everybody was honking their
horns and waving like crazy... It wasn't long before a state
trooper pulled up behind me.
'What's going on here?'
'My car has a flat tire,' I said calmly. '
Well, what are those cardboard men doing here by the
road?' I couldn't believe that he didn't know.
So I told him,
'Helloooooo, those are my Emergency Flashers.'
