A Final Election Joke
I decided I’d better tell this “joke” before it’s old news. During the course of this looonnng campaign, odd things can happen to one’s brain. In my case, I’ve come to think of the election when I drive up to the GA 400 toll booth.
You’ll find lanes with one of four signs above them; “.50 ONLY” for those with exact change, “CASHIER” for those without change, “CRUISE” for those who have a cruise card affixed to their windshield (no need to stop at all), and “CLOSED.”
One day Susan was driving as we approached the toll booth, with exactly the two quarters she needed in her hand, and a voice in my head told her “get in the McCain lane.”
Huh?
“Get in the McCain lane, we have all the change we need. Don’t get in that Obama lane, that’s more change than we want.”
And the other two lanes, Cruise and Closed?
“That’s the Cheney lane … you don’t stop for anybody or anything. And the one marked ‘Closed’ is the Bush lane, because it simply doesn’t work at all anymore.”
