So I was on my way down to Le Center this morning to buy some parts a guy had on craigslist. Down near Le Sueur, where the hills roll on down to the Minnesota River Valley, it's pretty easy to get a little too much speed up. So that's where the MHP likes to sit. I was doing about 77 in a 65. I saw him hit his flashers and do a Uturn and come up behind me. Of course I pulled over. So the cop comes up and I have my DL out and hand it to him. He asks do I have my insurance card. I told him no. "I don't have one." He asks, " Do you have insurance?" I said, "Yeah, I've got too much to lose to go without it. He says, "Do you know how fast you were going?" Now I know the correct answer to that question is to say No. But I fessed up and said, "I thought I had it under 75." He says "Yeah, I clocked you at 75." Then he says "Ok I'm going to go back and check you out so you just sit tight. "Ok" So he comes back in a few minutes and says, "Ok I'm just going to give you a warning on the speed, Ok? I said "Sure." Then he says " But this ticket is because you don't have your insurance card on you." I said "Ok." He says "If you send in your proof of insurance within 30 days the ticket will be dropped. Ok?" I just said "Ok." And he says, "And Keep your speed down through here. I usually don't give people warnings. Got that?" "Ok officer." Then I said, "Say you don't happen to have the winning numbers for the Powerball on you do you?" He looked at me kind of funny and says "What?" I said "Well, It looks like it's my lucky day cause I just got out of a speeding ticket. So I thought I'd see if my luck would hold and buy a powerball" He gave me a genuine laugh and said "Well, no I don't have them and if I did I wouldn't be here." And we both laughed.
