The Couple in Lover’s Lane

A policeman was patrolling a local lover’s lane parking spot overlooking a golf course. As he drove around he passed a car and saw a couple inside with the light on.

There was a young man in the driver’s seat reading a magazine and a young lady in the back seat knitting.

He stopped his patrol car and went over to investigate. He walked up to the driver’s side of the car and knocked on the window. The young man looked up, wound down the window and said, “Good evening officer.”

“What are you doing parked here?” the policeman asked. “Well officer,” replied the young man, “I’m reading this magazine.”

The police officer pointed towards the young lady in the back seat and asked, “And what is she doing?”. The young man looked over to the back seat and replied, “What does it look like she is doing? She’s knitting.”

“And how old are you?” the officer then asked the young man. “I’m eighteen.” he replied.

“And how old is the young lady?” asked the officer.

The young man looked at his watch and said, “Well, in about seven minutes she’ll be sixteen.”
