Reading is good for you

One morning a 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.

Along comes the warden in his boat, pulls up alongside the woman and says

‘Good morning, what are you doing?’

‘Reading a book,’ she replies

‘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 fishing at any moment.

‘I’ll have to take you in and charge you.’

‘If you do that, I’ll have to charge you with sexual assault’ says the woman.

‘But I haven’t even touched you’ replies the warden.

‘That’s true, but you have all the equipment and for all I know you could start at any moment’

‘Have a nice day’ replied the warden and left.

Moral: never argue with a woman who reads, it’s likely she can also think!
