Don't Argue with a Woman who Reads Books

One morning, a 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 reads her book. 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 fishing 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," he informs her again.  

"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 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 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," said the game warden, and he left.

MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.
