More Dumb Sayings are our Mystery Question again this week. It’s getting harder and harder to come up with one to match.
The photo was taken from the plane after we rose above the clouds, and as always they awestruck me with their beauty. The scenery is the one thing I enjoy about flying.
Now for last week’s Mystery Question–Did They Really Say That. People make really dumb statements to a police officer just before he arrests them. Criminals actually said three of the statements. I made up one. Can you guess which one?
- “You think you’re man enough? Well, you’re not. And your backup’s not so tough either. Bring it on …”
- “You’re not big enough or man enough to put me in that police car.”
- A woman after being pulled over for speeding: Would it help if I told you my uncle (Name) is a police officer?” Answer: “It would have if he hadn’t told us to arrest you the next time you used his name.”
- “I’m not scared of you or your police dog. I don’t care if it is a rottweiler.”
And the answer is…#3. Congrats to all who answered correctly.
Now for this week’s More Dumb Sayings Mystery Question. As usual, three are true and one is false. Can you guess which one is the one I made up?
- As he rips off his shirt and flexes, while backing up … “You don’t want none of this.”
- “You try to put those handcuffs on me, and I’ll make you eat them.”
- “If you think that fancy nightstick will stop me, think aga … OUCH!”
- “I’m glad you’re the one who caught me. We’re friends, right? Want a chicken?”
Okay, Super Sleuths, which one did I make up? Leave your answer in the comments and I’ll enter you in April’s drawing for a book from my library.

I’ll guess #3.
Author
Hi Paula. Goodness, the answers are all over the board today. Good. 😉 We’ll see if it’s #3 next week. Thanks for dropping in!
I laughed so hard at number 4, but I can totally see someone saying that if he or she had too much to drink! I’m guessing number 3 because most police officers don’t carry batons anymore. (Then again, if this is a quote from the past . . . oh, I’m overthinking things again!)
Author
Love your logic, Priscilla! We’ll see how it works out next Tuesday. 🙂 Thanks for stopping in!

I think #2.
Author
Lisa, we’ll see if it’s #2 next week. So glad you stopped by.
Those are so funny, Pat. What the criminals won’t say in the hopes of getting away. I’m guessing #2 this week. Threatening to feed a cop his handcuffs seems a little bit over the top.
Your photo reminds me of a cross country flight I took many years ago. We were flying right next to some huge cumulus clouds. I was struck by the tremendous power needed to form them, and keep them there. Of course that power comes from God as he controls the weather world-wide. The Scripture you quote says it all.

We’ll see, Tim. Glad you thought they were all funny. That’s my purpose this week–to give everyone a good laugh. And thank you about the photo. While I don’t like being in the clouds I love seeing them when we’re above. Always glad to ‘see’ you here!
I’ll go w/ #2 this week but I see you have a good spread for all answers–well-done!
Author
Delores, we’ll see next week if it’s #2. Thanks for always stopping by.
That picture brings back memories of many flights over the years. I used to enjoy flying but did not care so much the last few times because the airlines seemed to be packing more people into smaller planes for higher prices. Within a few minutes of boarding, I felt like I was in a straight-jacket with no room to move. But those views above the clouds were wonderful.
I think #4 was made up. Sounds like something from the Andy Griffith show. LOL!
Author
I agree, Edward–these all sound like they might have come from the Andy Griffith show. lol. I love seeing the clouds when I Fly…except one time when they were black. I think I have that photo somewhere. I’ll have to dig it out. Thanks for stopping by!
Pat, I understand about the black clouds. The very first time I ever flew, the plane I was to fly on was delayed in arriving at the airport for my flight due to thunderstorms. This was many years ago and I didn’t now what to expect. I took the first seat I came to, which of course was first class, even though I didn’t have a first class ticket. For some reason, the crew did not inform me of my error, probably because it wasn’t a full flight. The plane took a rather circuitous route from Greensboro, NC to Atlanta because of all the thunderheads. I caught some beautiful glimpses of lightning in the clouds. I had a small New Testament and decided to read it. The flight attendant started to offer me an alcoholic beverage but saw what I was reading and stopped. Interesting first trip which probably would have convinced some to never fly again. I quickly came to love it. Besides the fascination with the clouds, I always enjoyed trying to pick out landmarks way below. The Mississippi River was always an easy one. 🙂

Edward, I remember my second flight–it was the return of my first flight. I was flying out of Orlando, Florida, on Ground Hog Day, and tornadoes were all around. Mine was the last flight that got out before the airport closed. After we took off the plane dropped at least 50 feet, leaving my stomach on the ceiling. lol It’s a wonder I ever flew again.
I think it is #2.
Author
We’ll see, Gloria. So glad you dropped by!
