One morning, the husband returns the boat to their lakeside cottage 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, puts her feet up, and begins to read her book
The peace and solitude are magnificent.
Along comes a Fish and 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 I see 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,' the woman says.
'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' said the Game Warden, and he left.
MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.
