Turns out it's about golf. Absolute waste of money.

Pass this on so others don't get scammed.

Humor

(I didn't change the State to fit the occasion, I really got this in an email yesterday. Change it to whatever State you wish, it's still funny)

Speeding in Pennsylvania:

1) Good:

An Erie , PA policeman had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but wasn't getting many.
Then he discovered the problem. A twelve-year-old boy was standing up the road with a hand-painted sign, which read 'RADAR TRAP AHEAD.' Officer then found a young accomplice down the road with a sign reading 'TIPS' . . . and a bucket full of money.

(And we kids used to just sell lemonade!)

2) Better:

A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an automated radar post in Pittsburgh , PA. A $40 speeding ticket was included.
Being cute, he sent the police department a picture of $40. The police responded with another mailed photo of handcuffs.

3) Absolute Best:

A young woman was pulled over for speeding. As the Pennsylvania State Trooper walked to her car window, flipping open his ticket book, she said, 'I bet you're going to sell me a ticket to the State Troopers Ball.'
He replied ' Pennsylvania State Troopers don't have balls.' There was a moment of silence while 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 too hard to start her car........

Paul's joke wasn't very funny the first 16 times I saw it posted either.

I would suspect any speeding ticket with a $40 fine to be a scam. $40 isn't even close to enough.

It was Paul's fault

I told Paul that he was going to have to post a picture of himself playing a trumpet to a squirrel if he was going to get a laugh out of Karoly...

I Apologize If It Has Been Posted Here Before

First time I received it was this morning. I guess I am not on the same network as Mr. Karoly.

BTW, Since Dave Karoly says it is not funny, it does not belong in "Humor".

Hasn't been posted on here, before. But it's been going around Facebook and the internet.

It is kinda trashy but...come on guys...it's a JOKE. I don't think Paul meant to offend anyone by posting it. :-/

Alas, if anyone is offended I can delete it.
