Two cars were waiting at a stoplight. The light turned green, but the man didn't notice it. A woman in the car behind him is watching traffic pass around them. The woman begins pounding on her steering wheel and yelling at the man to move. The man doesn't move.
The woman is going ballistic inside her car, ranting and raving at the man, pounding on her steering wheel and dash. The light turns yellow and the woman begins to blow the car horn, flips him off, and screams profanity and curses at the man. The man, looks up, sees the yellow light and accelerates through the intersection just as the light turns red. The woman is beside herself, screaming in frustration as she misses her chance to get through the intersection. As she is still in mid-rant she hears a tap on her window and looks up into the barrel of a gun held by a very serious looking policeman. The policeman tells her to shut off her car while keeping both hands in sight. She complies, speechless at what is happening. After she shuts off the engine, the policeman orders her to exit her car with her hands up. She gets out of the car and he orders her to turn and place her hands on her car. She turns, places her hands on the car roof and quickly is cuffed and hustled into the patrol car. She is too bewildered by the chain of events to ask any questions and is driven to the police station where she is fingerprinted, photographed, searched, booked and placed in a cell.
After a couple of hours, a policeman approaches the cell and opens the door for her. She is escorted back to the booking desk where the original officer is waiting with her personal effects. He hands her the bag containing her things, and says, "I'm really sorry for this mistake. But, you see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping the guy off in front of you, and cussing a blue streak at him.
Then I noticed the:
"Choose Life" license plate holder,
the "What Would Jesus Do" bumper sticker,
the "Follow Me to Sunday School" bumper sticker, and
the chrome plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk.
So, naturally . . . . . . . . I assumed you had stolen the car."


That's a good one Brigita. Thanks and have a great day.
Cute...makes a strong point for truth in advertising!
I've come across many of the 'Do as I say and not as I do' type of people. Thanks Brigita!
Brigita,
We never know who is watching our every move. If you are a Christian act like one.
Connie Lou
Brigita, thanks for sharing....I think we should all come back to this post periodically to remind ourselves of this!!!
That was very cute. It is so true that we should act the way we claim to behave all the time!!
Happy Friday!
Lori
That's wonderful, Brigita. Thank you for sharing the great story. I wasn't sure where it was going but loved where it took me. Thanks.
LOL Brigita....another good one...I still say I am rubbing off on you!
Kevin:
Glad you liked it. Have a great weekend!
Brigita
Gary:
It sure does!
Brigita
Cynthia:
So have I!
Brigita
Connie Lou:
We should always be ourselves and not pretend to be someone who we are not. For example, if you are not a true Christian, don't disguise yourself as one.
Brigita
Kristin:
I have to agree with you on that!
Brigita
Lori:
Exactly! Have a great weekend!
Brigita
Heather:
I just love mysteries. LOL
Brigita
BLR Guy:
Maybe we can get some of this to rub off on others! LOL
Brigita
Hi Brigita.....looks we both had a car theme going on Friday. Guess this lady should have "to thine own self be true".....LOL
Gail:
You may be right! LOL
Brigita
They should have washed her mouth out with soap :) It was an honest mistake, bet she learned her lesson from that one. Thanks for the laugh.
Cris:
I think we all can learn a lesson from this. Glad you enjoyed it!
