One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap.
Although not familiar with the lake, his wife decides to take the boat out.
She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book amidst glorious silence and beauty.
Put, put, put...... 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," informs her again.
"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.
