Woman Reader

[atma]

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 short nap. Although she isn't

familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the

boat. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and

continues to read her book.Along comes the game warden

in his boat. He pulls up alongside her and says, "Good

morning, Ma'am, what are you doing?Reading my

book," she replies, thinking isn't that obvious?You're

in a restricted fishing area," he informs her."But

officer, I'm not fishing. Can't you see that?""Yes,

but you have all the equipment. I'll have to take you

in and write you up.""If you do that, I'll have to

charge you with rape," says the woman."But I haven't

even touched you," says the game warden."That's true,

but you do have all the equipment."

 

MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely

she can also think.

A man walked into the ladies department of Macy's, one of the biggest department store chains. He shyly walked up to the woman behind the counter and said "I'd like to buy a bra for my wife."

"What type of bra?" asked the clerk.

"Type?" inquired the man. "There is more than one type?"

"Look around," said the saleslady, as she showed him a sea of bras in every shape, size, color, material.

Overwhelmed, the neophyte shopper further inquired, "How can I distinguish between them?"

"Actually, even with all of this variety, there are only 5 types of bras," replied the salesclerk.

Confused, the man asked, "5 types? What exactly are those 5 bra types?"

The saleslady replied, "The Catholic type, the Jewish type, the Salvation Army type, the Hare Krishna type, the Baptist type. Which one you think your wife will be needing?"

Appearing very surprized and even more confused, the man asked, "Wow! What is the difference between them?"

The saleslady confidently responded, "Oh, it's very simple. The Catholic type supports the Masses, the Jewish type embraces the Chosen, the Salvation Army type uplifts the Fallen, the Hare Krishna type feeds future Fanatics and bounces to Street Drumbeats."

Hmm. Bouncing along, that shopper succinctly recalled, "That's only 4. You said 5. Wasn't there one Baptist bra type too?"

Oh yes, I was forgetting. The Baptist type makes Mountains out of mole hills."

Correction for Shopping for Spiritual Support story:

Hare Krishna type not only feeds furture fanatics, but also nourishes newborn NAradas, while upholding at least 2 principles, as they bounce to the beat of a different drum.
