Wan's World

A police officer was patrolling late at night off the main highway.   At nearly midnight, he saw a couple in a car, in a ‘lovers’ lane’, with the car’s interior light glowing brightly.   He carefully approached the car to get a closer look and saw a young man behind the wheel, reading a magazine.   He also noticed a young woman in the rear seat, filing her fingernails.  Puzzled by this surprising situation, the officer walked up to the car and gently rapped on the driver’s window. The young man lowered his window and said, “Yes, officer’?

The policeman asked, “What are you doing?”

The young man said, “Well, Officer, I’m reading a magazine.”

Pointing towards the young woman in the back seat the policeman asked, “And her, what is she doing?”

The young man shrugged casually. “Sir, I believe she’s filing her fingernails.”

By now, the officer was getting confused – a young couple, alone, in a car, at
night, in a lover’s lane and nothing intimate was happening.

He asked the driver, “What is your age, young man?”

The young man said, “I’m 22, sir.”

The policeman asked, “And what’s her age?”

The young man looked at his watch and replied, “She’ll be 18 in 11 minutes.”
