A couple go on vacation to a fishing resort in northern Minnesota. The husband
likes to fish at the crack of dawn. The wife likes to read.
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 continues to read her
book.
Along comes a law enforcement officer 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 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 you have all the equipment. 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
officer.
"That's true, but you have all the equipment."
The
Officer says, "Have a nice day."
Moral of the story: Don't mess with a
woman who reads. She may also be able to think.
