The rain was pouring and there was a big puddle in front of the bar just outside the American Legion Post.
A ragged old Marine sargent was standing near the edge with a fishing line in the puddle.
A curious young Navy fighter pilot came over to him and asked what he was doing.
"Fishing," the old sergeant simply said.
"Poor old fool," the Navy officer thought to himself, and he invited the old Marine into the bar for a drink.
As he felt he should start some conversation while they were sipping their whiskey, the haughty fighter pilot asked,
"And how many have you caught today?"
"You're number ten" the old Marine sergeant answered. "2Navy, 3 Army and 5 Air Force."

the Wisconsin woods. He was fishing on a lake in a small
boat and not having much luck.
He noticed a man in another small boat that was close by,
open his tackle box and take out a mirror. Being a curious
person, the man rowed over & enquired, "What is that mir-
ror for?"
"That's my secret way to catch fish," replied the other man.
"I Shine the mirror on the top of the water. The fish notice
the spot of sun on the water above... & they swim up to the
surface. Then, I just reach down, net them and pull them in-
to the boat."
"Wowee, man! Does that really work?" exclaimed the guy
from Chicago!
"You bet it does!" was the response.
"Would you be interested in selling that mirror? I'll give you
$50 for it," offered the big city gent.
"Well, okay," said the country guy.
After the money was transferred, the city fisherman asked,
"By the way...how many did you catch this week?"
The country local grinned and said, "You are the sixth!"
end and jiggled it up and down in the water.
A curious gentleman asked what he was doing. 'Fishing', replied the old man.
Poor old fool, thought the gentlemen. So, he decided he would invite the old man to have a drink in the pub. Feeling he should start some conversation while they were sipping their whiskey, the gentleman asked, 'And, how many have you caught today?'
The old man replied 'You're the eighth.'
The old man couldn't believe his eyes but chalked it up to plain luck. But, shortly thereafter, the young boy pulled in another large catch.
The young boy kept catching fish after fish. Finally, the old man couldn't take it any longer. "Son, I've been here for over an hour without even a nibble. You've been here only a few minutes and have caught a half dozen fish! How do you do it?"
The boy responded, "Roo raf roo reep ra rums rrarm."
"What was that?" the old man asked.
Again the boy responded, "Roo raf roo reep ra rums rarrm."
"Look," said the old man, "I can't understand a word you're saying."
The boy spit the bait into his hand and said, "You have to keep the worms warm!"

A ragged old Marine Aviator was standing near the edge with a fishing rod, his line in the puddle.
A curious young Air Force fighter pilot came over to him and asked what he was doing.
"Fishing," the old guy simply said.
'Poor old fool,' the Air Force officer thought and he invited the ragged old aviator into the pub for a drink.
As he felt he should start some conversation while they were sipping their whisky, the haughty fighter pilot asked, "And how many have you caught?"

Charcoal grilled,MMMMMMMM mmmmmmmm
Of course I'm out of my mind. It's dark and scary in there.
conversation took place:
First guy:
"You have no idea what I had to do to be able to come out
fishing this weekend. I had to promise my wife that I will paint
every room in the house next weekend."? ?
? ?
? ?Second guy:
"That's nothing, I had to promise my wife that I will
build her a new deck for the pool."
Third guy:
"Man, you both have it easy! I had to promise my wife
that I will remodel the kitchen for her."
They continue to fish when they realized that the fourth
guy has not said a word.? ?
? ?
? So they asked
him.
? "You haven't said anything about what you had to do to be
able to come fishing this weekend. What's the deal?"
Fourth guy:
"I just set my alarm for 5:30 am. When it went off, I
? shut off m y? alarm, gave the wife a nudge and said, "Fishing or
Sex" and she said, "Wear sun-block."
