One morning a husband returns to the cabin 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, since it is such a beautiful day. 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"?
"Reading a book," she replies, (thinking, "Isn't that obvious"?)
"You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," he informs her.
"I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing, I'm reading."
"Yes, but you have all the equipment. I'll have to write you up a ticket."
"For reading a book"? she replies.
"You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," he informs her again.
"But officer, I'm not fishing, I'm reading."
"Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to write you up a ticket and you'll have to pay a fine."
"If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault," says the woman.
"But I haven't even touched you," says the Game Warden.
"That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment."
"Have a nice day ma'am," and he immediately departed.
MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.

Some of you may not be familiar with Tom Mix and his history in Hollywood. He was the very first western cowboy star, greatly admired for doing his own stunt work, a lot of which was extremely dangerous in those early film days. His work became the prototype performance for all the cowboy stars that proliferated in the coming years. During his years of acting....1909 to 1935....he was in the astounding number of 291 films. Only 9 of those were " talkies " , the rest were silent.

Because of his influence within the Hollywood industry, He was able to arrange for a young man he had met to enter the world of filmmaking. That young man was John Wayne, who was forever grateful to Mix for helping him to realize his dreams.

Mix was driving through Arizona in 1940 when he apparently failed to notice a sign warning of road repairs ahead. He ran off of the road an into a ditch. An aluminum briefcase he had on the rear seat flew forward, hit him in the head and killed him. It was stuffed full of money. The car here was the car he was driving when he crashed. It was repaired at the time but around 2010 it underwent an exhaustive and ultra-expensive complete restoration The car now is exactly as it was the day he died.

The car is a 1937 Cord 812 Phaeton. only 196 of this model were produced. But beyond that rarity is the fact this car is one of the 3 cars made that received a very exclusive option package...including the spare tire that was enclosed and hangs over the rear bumper. Tom Mix got this car, the jazz singer Al Jolson got one and the last one went to the actress Barbara Stanwick.
