One morning, the husband returns the boat to their lakeside 
cottage 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, puts her feet up,

And begins to read her book.

The peace and solitude are magnificent.Along comes a Fish and 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.’

 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, 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,’ and he left.

MORAL:     Never argue with a woman who reads.     

It’s likely she can also think.This was sent to me by my Aunt Honey Costa…thanks

Faith and doubt are both needed-not as antagonists,

but working side by side-to take us around the unknown curve. 

-Lillian Smith, writer and social critic 

I believe this mimics my feelings this week

as I wait upon agents and editors. I hate to

wait. I am eager to show the world what I

have to offer, when I can finally shout out

“HERE I AM”.
