Petrol Station Fire.

I just stopped for petrol at the local BP service station.

When I pulled in, I noticed these two police sitting in their car and watching a woman who was smoking while fueling up. I was thinking, "Wow...what an idiot! The police are standing right there!"

I went inside and as I was paying, I heard someone scream, "Look outside!"

The woman's arm was on fire!!!

She was running around like a chicken with its head cut off, waving her arm around and just going nuts. We all went outside and watched the police wrestle her to the ground and put the fire out with an extinguisher.

After all the craziness, I started walking to my car and I saw the cops put her in handcuffs.

So I went over to them and said "What in the world are you arresting her for? After all, wasn't catching her arm on fire punishment enough?"

I kid you not...the policemen looked me dead in the eye and said, "For waving a Firearm"...

GROAN.

Even I recognise that it may qualify for a groan

Even though I found it funny.

It was funny but definitely warranted a GROAN.

That's what I said - yet again we are on the same wavelength. I'm getting worried.

So you should Alan. Didn't you read that book I sent you.
