06/26/15 Grif.Net – Trying to Get Some Rest

A man had been driving all night up the winding Pacific Coast Highway and by
daylight was still far from his destination. He decided to stop at Monterey,
and park somewhere quiet along a golf course so he could get an hour or two
of sleep. As luck would have it, the place along the quiet course that he
chose happened to be a major jogging route. No sooner had he settled back to
snooze when there came a knocking on his window. He looked out and saw a
jogger running in place.

“Yes?”

“Excuse me, sir,” the jogger said, “do you have the time?” The man looked at
the car clock and answered, “6:15”. The jogger said thanks and left. The man
settled back again, and was just dozing off when there was another knock on
the window and another jogger.

“Excuse me, sir, do you have the time?”

“6:25!”

The jogger said thanks and left. Now the man could see other joggers passing
by and he knew it was only a matter of time before another one disturbed
him. To avoid the problem, he got out a pen and paper and put a sign in his
window saying, “I do not know the time!” Once again he settled back to
sleep. He was just dozing off when there was another knock on the window.

“Sir, sir? It’s 6:45!”
