A driver was pulled over by a police officer for speeding. As the officer
was writing the ticket, she noticed several machetes in the car. "What
are those for?" she asked suspiciously. "I'm a juggler," the man replied.
"I use those in my act." "Well show me," the officer demanded. So he
got out the machetes and started juggling them, first three, then more,
finally seven at one time, overhand, underhand, behind the back, putting
on a dazzling show and amazing the officer. Another car passed by. The
driver did a double take, and said,"Holy Mother, I've got to give up the
drink! Look at the test they're giving now!"
