One morning, a husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap inside. Although not familiar with the lake, his wife decides to take the boat out for a relaxing read. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book.

Along comes a Game Warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, "Good morning, ma'am. What are you doing?"

"I'm just reading a book," she replies.

"You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," he informs her.

"I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing," the wife says. "I'm just reading."

"Yes," the cop says, "But you have all the equipment. For all I know, you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up."

"For reading a book," the woman asks, in disbelief.

"You're in a Restricted Fishing Area, with all the equipment," he repeats.

"I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing," the wife repeats, agitated. "I'm just reading. I haven't been fishing, either."

"I'm going to take you in, and I'm going to write you up. There are no buts to it."

"If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault," the woman says.

"But I haven't even touched you," says the Game Warden.

"That's true," the woman begins, "But you have all the equipment. For all I know, you could start at any moment."

"Have a nice day ma'am," the Game Warden says, and he left.
