ENRICHING YOUR VOCABULARY THROUGH ANECDOTES





PART I
        A man was stopped for speeding by a state trooper. As the officer approached, the man sighed and said, “it’s ironic! I was speeding but i wasn’t goin; anywhere. I’m retired and was just out for a spin – just to get out of the house – just taking a spin”
The man was so forlorn that the officer relented, “well, allright,” he said. “i’m not going to give you a citation this time”. Then he added, with a deep, authorative voice,”go, and spin no more”
