Going Fishing

What subjects do men talk about while fishing? It is usually normal
for conversations to cover sports, memorable events in their lives
and, particularly for married men, their wives. This was how the
conversation went for the four men who got together to go fishing one
day.

As they enjoyed their time together, they discussed what they had to
commit to for their wives to allow them to go fishing on this day.

First man: “You have no idea what I had to promise my wife for her to
allow me to be here today. I had to promise her that I would paint one
room in the house next weekend.”

Second man: “That’s nothing! I had to promise to build a sizeable
addition to the deck for our pool.”

Third man: “You both have it easy! I had to promise to completely
renovate the master bathroom.”

When the fourth man said nothing, one of them said to him, “You
haven’t said what you had to promise your wife in order to be here
today.”

The fourth man finally spoke up and said, “I didn’t have to promise my
wife anything. When my alarm went off at 5:30 this morning, I said to
my wife, ‘Good morning sweetheart what would you prefer, to have sex
now, or to have me go fishing?’ With no hesitation, she said, ‘It’s
chilly out, so wear a sweater.’”
