Your Readerly Laugh for the Day

One morning a woman decides to take her husband's fishing boat out.  She motors out a short distance, anchors, puts her feet up, and begins to read.  The peace and solitude are magnificent until...

Along comes a Fish and Game Warden in his boat.  'Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?'
    
'Reading a book,' she replies, thinking, Isn't it 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,’ says the woman, ‘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.'
    
Silence.  Then, 'Have a nice day ma'am.'


MORAL:
NEVER ARGUE WITH ANYONE WHO READS. 
IT IS LIKELY THAT PERSON CAN ALSO THINK.

  2. Don't you always feel good about your reading? Who was the meanie who took away the flashlight you used for reading under the covers? Reading's like... it. How can we learn to be writers unless we read?

    It isn't fair to children in the limelight to leave them in the care of others and then expect that they will turn out all right, the first lady said. "They need their mother's affection and guidance and long periods of time alone with her. That is what gives them security in an often confusing world.". {tag: Yeezy Boost 350 Foot Locker White}

Jordan Max Aura Black And White, And, the culture that we have allows them, and it should, that you get your butt ready to play the next game. It the same way when you have a big win, sometimes maybe a little worse, because they floating on cloud nine. The difficult part is you got to look in the mirror and say, What could I have done better? Same thing with me and the staff.
