Re: (...)
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.'
'For reading a book,' she replies.
'You're in a Restricted Fishing Area,' he informs her again.
'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.

Good one!
Don't wait too long to tell someone you love them.

ROFLOL! That is a good one! I've got several friends who are game wardens and I can't wait to tell this one to them. I think I might actually be able to remember this one....I'm usually TERRIBLE at telling jokes!

I saw the subject and my first thought was, "Well duh! I could have told you that."
Quite cute by the way...

There is a reverse to that story.

Yeah but that reverse could get you 3 1/2 to 7 in some states...

First heard this one about five years ago. Still funny, though.
On a different note, though similar (you'll see why), here's one of those fascinating, colourful things about language - in particular, idiomatic expressions.
You know how, when someone is starting to drop off to sleep, his head will nod a bit, then pull back, then nod again, then pull back, etc.? Well, the idiomatic expression for when someone is falling asleep that way is "está pescando," or "he's fishing," since the motion of his head resembles the motion of someone's casting a fishing line, then reeling it back in, etc. Gotta love language! LOL!

I am young enough to remember my dad explaining it all to me. Again, it all goes back to never arguing with a woman.

And yes, boys, we are ALWAYS right! If you don't believe me, ask my husband.
