Never Argue With a Woman

A couple was on vacation and one morning the husband returned the boat to their lakeside cottage after several hours of fishing and decided to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decided to take the boat out.

She motored out a short distance, anchored, put her feet up, and began to read her book. The peace and solitude were magnificent and she was enjoying her quiet reading time immensely.

And then, along comes a Fish and Game Warden in his boat. He pulled up alongside the woman and said, "Good morning, ma'am. What are you doing?"

"Reading a book," she replied (thinking, "Isn't that obvious?").

"You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," the warden informed her.

"I'm sorry, officer," the woman protested, "but I'm not fishing. I'm reading."

"Yes, but I see you have all the equipment on your boat. 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," said the woman.

"But I haven't even touched you," said the Game Warden.

"That's true," she agreed, "but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment."

"Have a nice day ma'am," said the warden, and he left.


MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.
