Subject: TEXAS WISDOM
A young fella from Texas was stopped by a game warden
recently with two ice chests of fish, leaving a
small lake well known for its fishing.
The game warden asked the man "Do you have a license to catch those
fish?"
"Naw, my friend, I ain't got no license ... don't really need
one, nope. These here are my pet fish."
"Pet fish?"
"Yep .. pert' near every night I take em' here fish down to
the lake and let em' swim 'round for a while. Then I whistle
and they jump rat back into this here ice chest and I take
'em' home."
"That's a bunch of hooey! Fish can't do that!"
The young fella looked at the game warden for a moment
and then said, "It's the truth my friend. I'll show you. It
really works."
"Okay, I've got to see this!"
The young fella poured the fish into the lake and stood and waited.
After several minutes, the game warden turned to
him and said, "Well?"
"Well, what?" said the fella.
"When are you going to call them back?"
"Call who back?"
"The FISH!"
"What fish?"
We in Texas may not be as smart as some, but we aren't
dumb either!
