(73,631 posts)4. Werner Heisenberg was speeding on a country road
Unfamiliar with his surroundings, he realized that he made a wrong turn somewhere and was now lost. Unfortunately, his speeding came to the attention of a sheriff's deputy who tracked his excessive pace on his radar gun at a speed trap. The cop then chased Werner down and promptly pulled him over to give him a ticket.
While looking at Heisenberg's registration and license, the cop who's actually a former physics major in college, asks him if he knew why he was pulled over. Werner said that he was lost, didn't know where he was and that he didn't know anything.
The cop said, while writing the ticket, "Well, sir. I guess this is your lucky day."
"Why is that, Officer?", says a perturbed Werner.
"Because I'm about to do something right now that you haven't been able to do during your entire life", replies the deputy.
"What's that, Officer?"
The deputy smiles while handing him the ticket and says, "Well guess what. Not only will I tell you where you are, but I'm even going to do the impossible AND tell you how fast you were going."
