A couple goes 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.
