A girl with strawberry plaid hair had a flat tire on the interstate. She eased her car over to the shoulder of the road. She got out of the car and went to her trunk.


From the trunk, she took out two cardboard men, unfolded them and stood them at the rear of her car facing on-coming traffic. They looked so life like you wouldn't believe it! Each was dressed in an open trench coat that exposed his private parts to the approaching drivers.


Immediately, cars started slowing down to look at these lifelike men. And, of course, traffic began backing up. Everybody tooted their horns and waved like crazy.


It wasn't long before a state trooper pulled up behind the plaid haired girl. He got out of his car and walked towards her, and it was obvious that he was not a happy camper!


"What's going on here?"

"My car has a flat tire," the plaid said calmly.

"Well, what the heck are those obscene cardboard men doing here by the road?"


She looked at him with a glare of disbelief that she had to explain their purpose and said;


"Helloooooo, those are my emergency flashers!".
