Humor can shift your perspective.  A friend sent me these a number of years ago. I hope they give you a bit of a lift.  Enjoy!

GOOD

A Bloomington, IL policeman had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but for some reason wasn’t getting any.  He soon discovered the problem.  A 12-year-old boy was standing up the road with a hand painted sign, which read “RADAR TRAP AHEAD”.  The officer then found a young accomplice just a little further down the road with another sign that said “TIPS” and a bucket full of money.  (And we used to just sell lemonade!)

BETTER

A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an automated radar post in Peoria, IL. There was a $40 speeding ticket included with the picture.  Being cute, he sent the police department a picture of $40.  The police responded back to him just a few days later with another mailed photo of handcuffs.

BEST

A young woman was pulled over for speeding.  A Pennsylvania State Trooper walked to her car window and flipped open his ticket book.  She looked up at him and said, “I bet you are going to sell me a ticket to the State Troopers Ball.”  He very professionally replied, “Pennsylvania State Troopers don’t have balls.”  There was a moment of silence, she smiled, and he realized what he’d just said.  He then closed his book, got back in his patrol car, and left.  She was laughing so hard she couldn’t start her car.
