One for Brent P

A cyclist is commuting to work -- the morning is beautiful and he's
looking forward to getting out on one of his favorite roads. Unfortunately
on his way into town, an ******* motorist cuts sharply in front of him to
pull into a left-turn lane, and only the cyclist's skill and years of
experience keep him from losing control and dumping the bike, and he
finally manages to wrestle his ride to a safe stop.

Pissed off to the max, he spies a large rock in the gutter, picks it up
and throws it with all his considerable might. It smashes through the rear
window of the car and whacks the driver on the back of the head, knocking
him out. The vehicle loses control and eventually smashes into a phone
pole -- the car is totalled and the driver is put into hospital for
weeks.

Some time later at his trial, the prosecuting attorney is cross-examining
the cyclist on the stand and finally just asks "WHY?! Why did you do it?!"

The cyclist thinks for a moment, then starts beaming and says "I didn't
see him!"

Works for everyone else

. Cept he's supposed to tell that to the cop.
See if you tell it to the cop there are no charges and no trial.

And man, he should be pitcher in the major leagues with an arm like
that. Through the rear window and still enough energy to KO the driver.
Most thrown rocks wouldn't even have enough energy to get through the
lamenated safety glass.

I think it was Thad O (re: previous thread titled
'Exercise Part II') :-)

I dunno if Eddie Fayner could break the windshield, but
I bet he could have hit it, throwing backwards while
looking in a hand mirror.

cheers,
