A cop stopped a motorist speeding on a main street. “But officer,” the man began, “I can explain.”

“Quiet!” snapped the cop, “I’m going to let you spend the night in jail till the chief returns.”

A few hours later, the cop looked in on his prisoner and said, “Lucky for you, the chief’s at his daughter’s wedding. He’ll be in a good mood when he gets back.”

“Don’t count on it,” replied the guy, “I’m the groom!”
