Watching the Car
A tourist climbed out of his car in downtown Washington, DC.
He saw a man standing near the curb, and asked:
- Listen, I'm going to be only a couple of minutes. Would you watch my car while I run into this store?
- What? - the man huffed.
- Do you realize that I am a member of the United States Senate?
- Well no - the tourist said.
- I didn't realize that. But listen, I'm really in a bind so I'm going to have to trust you anyway.
