    If you're from New Jersey and have been around a while you'll recognize the big Chrysler troop car as a "Gray Ghost." NJSP used these on the high speed roadways, mainly the New Jersey Turnpike and the Garden State Parkway, replacing the Police Interceptor Ford Galaxies used for normal service. They were called Gray Ghost because of the light gray color, and they used the most potent engine Chrysler had available, usually from the letter series. Notice the TurnPike designation on the tag, and troop A indicates that he's stationed near the southern end of the turnpike.

    The calf was taken into custody for having a "beef" with the trooper. (insert snare drum and cymbal crash here).
