Off topic warning.... Raced a cop Sunday...
So it was Sunday afternoon in our sleepy little town and we were going to visit some friends. As we turned onto the highway, I see one of the local cops ahead of us.

I know all the local police all so I jumped on it and caught up with him. It was the only cop in our town crazy enough to do this....

I rolled down the window and said "let's run 'em"

I can only imagine the reaction of the folks on the street seeing a yellow Lamborghini racing a police cruiser through the middle of town. We met for margaritas after he got off.

There is some benefit to living in a small town...
