Lateral Thinking, p 85

Well, since the last lateral thinking puzzle was answered correctly, I guess it's time for a new one.
A man went into a café, sat down and ordered a black cup of coffee, a glass of orange juice and a Danish pastry. "Ah," said the waitress, "You must be a policeman". How did she know?
You do not have to be Capt. Obvious to figure this one out : )

(And I best not put any picture up with this one, for it may, as perhaps the last entry, give away the answer.)

    If you weren't an engineer, and accustomed to thinking in different ways, I'd say you were looking up the answers ; )

    Despite the brief, hesitant "I dunno," I'll award full marks: 25 pts!

    And regarding what you get to do with the points, you can trade them in for fun and laughs... and respect... yeah that's about it. As Drew Carey would say, "The points are like the weight-watchers for a gourmand... they just don't matter."

    p.s. if you thought the last one was hard, then no, I'm not saying the last one was easy : )
