The truck driver and the preacher

Once, there was a truck driver who absolutely HATED policemen. On the rare occasion that he could actually catch one on the side of the road, he always swerved so he could run them over! And every time he did, he couldn't help but burst out laughing..  One day, as he was driving his truck down the road, he passed a preacher who was broke down on the side of the road. Knowing he'd feel guilty if he didn't stop to help out, he pulled over and asked the preacher if he could give him a lift. The preacher replied, "Sure. My car's out of gas, so if you could just give me a ride to the nearest gas station and back, I'd be most grateful." The truck driver agreed, adding, "Would you mind hanging your gas can out the window?", seeing that the preacher's gas can was very old and dirty and his truck was new and clean on the inside. The preacher understood and responded with a simple nod and wink. The two jumped in the truck and started on down the road. Well, it wasn't too far down the road that the truck driver noticed a policeman standing alone by his cruiser after the car he'd pulled over drove off. Hating now that he'd picked up the preacher, the truck driver went crazy inside that he couldn't swerve to hit the man. Getting closer and closer, the truck driver just couldn't take it! 'I'll just get close enough to scare him', he thought to himself. So, he swerved up next to the policeman and heard a loud 'whack!'. "Aw man, did I hit him? DID I HIT HIM??!!", the truck driver asked, alarmed and confused at what the preacher must now think of him. "No", replied the preacher. "But I got the somb*tch with my gas can!!!"
