In the fun world of the administration of justice, not all the
laughs are in the court-room. Indeed, giggles and guffaws can erupt at
almost any time or place. For example: On a bitterly cold
winter's day several years ago in northern British Columbia,
a RCMP constable on patrol came across a motorcyclist, who was swathed
in
protective clothing and helmet, stalled by the roadside. "What's
the
matter?" asked the policeman.
"Carburetor's frozen," was the terse reply. "Pee on it.
That'll thaw it out."
"Can't."
"OK, Watch me and I will show you."
The constable lubricated the carburetor, as promised. The bike
started and the rider drove off, waving. A few days later, the
detachment office received a note of thanks from the
father of the motorbike rider.
