The Right Equipment
A couple goes on vacation to a fishing resort in Northern Minnesota.
The husband likes to fish at the crack of dawn. The wife likes to read.
One morning the 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 continues to read her book.
Along comes a game warden in his boat. He pulls alongside the woman and says, "Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?"
"Reading a book, she replies. (Thinking, "Isn't it obvious?")
"You're in a restricted fishing area," he informs her.
"I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing, I'm reading," she says.
"Yes, but you have all the right equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up."
The woman pauses, then says, "If you do that, I'll have you charged with sexual assault."
"But I haven't touched you," says the game warden, incredulous.
"That's true," says the woman, "but you have all the right equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment."
The game warden looks at the woman. "Good day, Ma'am," he says and leaves.
