A tourist parked his car in downtown Washington, D. C. He said to a man standing near the curb, “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 Congress?”
“Well, no, “the tourist said, “I didn’t realize that. But it’s all right. I’ll trust you anyway. “
