Just Waiting

A cop was patrolling at night in a well-known spot for "parking." He saw a couple in a car, with the interior light on. He got closer to the car and saw a young man behind the wheel, reading a computer magazine and a young woman in the rear seat, knitting.

Puzzled by this surprising situation, the cop walked to the car and knocked on the window.

The young man lowered his window..."Yes, officer?"

"What are you doing?" asked the puzzled cop.

"Well, isn't it obvious? I'm reading a magazine."

Pointing toward the young woman, the cop asked, "And what is she doing?"

The young man shrugged. "I believe she's knitting a sweater."

The cop was totally confused. A young couple alone in a car at night... and nothing obscene is happening!

"What's your age, young man?" he asked.

"I'm 22, sir," the young man said as he produced his driver’s license.

"And her. What's her age?"

The young man looked at his watch and said, "She'll be 18 in 20 minutes."
