72 in a 60 ~ Kicking Up Pixie Dust

Never doubt the power of Disney........

As I headed down I-26 this cool South Carolina morning, a cop noticed that I happened to be in quite a hurry and stopped me to see what the rush was. I pulled the required documents out and greeted him with a smile as I rolled down the window. He, of course concerned about my safety, asked if I had any idea how fast I had been driving. I told him that I had hoped 69 as there is generally an allowance of 9 mph around here. He smiled and said it was actually 72. I was really surprised.... Anyway...after he had finished reviewing my documents, he handed them back to me and asked if I thought I could slow it down a bit. "Of course," I answered. He said, "I've never ticketed a car with a Tinkerbell hanging from the rearview mirror and I'm not going to start now." ~ Referring to the Tinkerbell a dear friend had sent me as a birthday gift. I told him thanks and that I hoped he didn't need to pull anyone with a Tinkerbell hanging from the mirror over in the future. He grinned and started to relay what I thought was to be advice.... "Just remember.... it all started with a mouse!" ;)

It had to have been the pixie dust............

Nah I don't think so. If it was he would have written her. Now if she had a Mickey Mouse or a Grumpt hanging from her mirror that would be a differnet story! LOL:whistle: :laugh :)

That is a great story. Do you speed often? I guess that will teach you a lesson.

I might try this, but I have a feeling if the cop saw I had a tinkerbell hanging from my rearview mirror, he would definitly write me the ticket. Like Matto said, Mickey would probably be a better choice. LOL!!!

I hvae to ask - is it the tiny Tink dangling from the little wire? I've got one of those and I absolutely adore her.
