THE TRAFFIC PROBLEM
A Marine colonel, on his way home from work at the Pentagon, came to a dead
halt in traffic and thought to himself, "Wow, this traffic is the worst
I've
ever seen. Nothing is moving at all."
He noticed a police officer walking back and forth between the lines of
cars,
so he rolled down his window and asked, "Officer, what's the hold up?"
The officer replied, "President Clinton is just so depressed about moving
to
New York with Hillary, that he has stopped his motorcade in the middle of
the
beltway and is threatening to douse himself with gasoline and set himself
on
fire. He says that his family hates him and he doesn't have the money to
pay
for all these new houses that she insists on buying. We're taking up a
collection for him now."
"How much have you collected so far?" asked the colonel.
"About 300 gallons, but a lot of people are still siphoning."
