Joe and Bob were both fanatics about deep-sea fishing.
Each would come back from fishing trips and tell the other big lies about the number and sizes of the fish they caught.
So Bob comes back from his latest fishing trip, and tells Joe…
“You wouldn’t believe, but in the Bahamas I caught a 500-pound herring.”
Joe says….” That’s nothing, last time I fished in the Bahamas, I pulled up an old lantern from a sunken American ship…. and the candle was still burning !”
They both looked at each other, knowing that the other was lying.
Finally, Joe said to Bob, “Look, Bob, if you take 450 pounds from off your herring…. I’ll blow out my candle!”
================================================
Steve and his buddies were hanging out and planning an upcoming fishing trip.
Unfortunately, he had to tell them that he couldn’t go this time because his wife wouldn’t let him.
After a lot of teasing and name calling, Steve headed home frustrated.
The following week when Steve’s buddies arrived at the lake to set up camp, they were shocked to see Steve.
He was already sitting at the campground with a cold beer, swag rolled out, fishing rod in hand, and a camp fire glowing.
“How did you talk your missus into letting you go Steve?”
“I didn’t have to,” Steve replied.
“Yesterday, when I left work, I went home and slumped down in my chair with a beer to drown my sorrows because I couldn’t go fishing. Then my lady Snuck up behind me and covered my eyes and said, ‘Surprise’.
When I peeled her hands back, she was standing there in a beautiful see through negligee and she said, ‘Carry me into the bedroom, tie me to the bed and you can do whatever you want,’ So, Here I am!”
