Texas Patience

A Texas police officer was patrolling very late at night, in a well-known Lover's Lane spot. He sees a couple in a car, with the interior light glowing brightly.

The cop carefully approaches the car to get a closer look; and sees a young man behind the wheel, reading a computer magazine. He also notices a beautiful, very well built, young woman in the rear seat; filing her fingernails.

Puzzled by this surprising situation, the cop walks to the car and gently raps on the driver's window.

The young man lowers his window: 'Uh, yes, Officer?'

The cop says: 'What are you doing?'

The young man says: 'Well, Officer, I'm reading a magazine.'

Pointing towards the young woman in the back seat, the cop says: 'And her? What is she doing?'

The young man shrugs his shoulders: 'Sir, I believe she's filing her fingernails.'

Now, the cop is totally confused. A young couple, alone in a car, at night in a Lover's Lane; and nothing is happening?

The cop asks: 'What's your age young man?'

The young man says: 'I'm 22, sir.'

The cop asks: 'And her? What's her age?'

The young man looks at his watch and replies: 'She'll be 18 in 11 minutes and 39 seconds, sir.'
