A Police STOP at 2 AM:

An elderly man is stopped by the police around 2 a.m., and is asked where he is going at this time of night.

The man replies, "I am on my way to a lecture about alcohol abuse, and the effects it has on the human body, as well as smoking and staying out late."

The officer then asks, "Really? Who is giving that lecture at this time of night?"

The man replies, "That would be my wife."
