One morning the husband returns after
several hours of
fishing and decides to take a nap.
Although not familiar with the lake,
the wife decides to take the boat out.
She motors out a short distance,
anchors, and reads her book.
Along comes a Game Warden in his boat.
He pulls up alongside the woman and
says, “Good morning, Ma’am. What are
you doing?”
“Reading a book,” she replies,
(thinking, “Isn’t that obvious?”)
“You’re in a Restricted Fishing Area,”
he informs her.
“I’m sorry, officer, but I’m not
fishing. I’m reading.”
“Yes, but you have all the equipment.
For all I know you could start at any
moment. I’ll have to take you in and
write you up.”
“If you do that, I’ll have to charge
you with sexual assault,” says the
woman.
“But I haven’t even touched you,” says
the game warden.
“That’s true, but you have all the
equipment. For all I know you could
start at any moment.”
“Have a nice day ma’am,” and he left.
MORAL: Never argue with a woman who
reads. It’s likely she can also think.
