A young man approaches a fisherman standing in the river.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

He waves to the fisherman and says, \u201cWow, you\u2019ve got a great pole there!\u201d<\/p>\n

The fisherman smiles, gives a slight nod, and says, \u201cThank you!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd man, that\u2019s one of the coolest tackles I\u2019ve ever seen!\u201d<\/p>\n

The fisherman smiles and nods proudly: \u201cThank you!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSome high-quality bait, too.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThanks again!\u201d says the fisherman with a big smile.<\/p>\n

The young man peers down into the river, curious.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know,\u201d He says. \u201cThe fish don\u2019t come through here this time of year.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah,I know.\u201d Shrugged the fisherman.<\/p>\n

\u201cThen what are you fishing for?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCompliments.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A boy named Little Johnny with a bucket full of live fish was approached by a game warden.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The game warden asked the boy, \u201cMay I see your fishing license, please?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, sir,\u201d the boy replied.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t need none of them there papers. These here are my pet fish.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPet fish?!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes. Once a week, I bring these here fish o\u2019mine down to the lake and let \u2019em swim \u2019round for a while. Then when I whistle, they swim right back into my net, and I take \u2019em home.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat a line of baloney\u2026 you\u2019re under arrest.\u201d<\/p>\n

Little Johnny said, \u201cIt\u2019s the truth. I\u2019ll show you! We do this all the time!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWE do, now, do WE?\u201d smirked the warden.<\/p>\n

\u201cPROVE it!\u201d<\/p>\n

Little Johnny released the fish into the lake and stood and waited.<\/p>\n

After a few minutes, the warden said, \u201cWell?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, WHUT?\u201d said Little Johnny.<\/p>\n

The warden asked, \u201cWhen are you going to call \u2019em back?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCall who back?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe FISH,\u201d replied the warden!<\/p>\n

\u201cWhut fish?\u201d asked Little Johnny.<\/p>\n
