My landlord who stays above us, had a fabulous car. A equally fabulous stereo system. One day, around 2 am, a thief broke into his sophisticated car and could dismantle the stereo. While removing the speaker the beeper went off and we all woke up.
The landlord being politicos called the police. Two constables with secure mufflers on their heads, arrived and asked us to narrate the events.
When we came to the part that we could hear the thief quickly start running, the constable asked us :
Where did the thief run to??
Towards the north side or west side..???????
We all had a good laugh, and started our day early.
