The Fishing Trip

Dave 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, Dave headed home frustrated.

The following week when Dave’s buddies arrived at the lake they were shocked to see Dave. He was already sitting on the dock, fishing rod in hand, and drinking a beer.

His buddies asked, “How did you talk your missus into letting you go, Dave?“

Dave replied, “Last night I came home and slumped down in my chair with a beer to drown my sorrows thinking how much I wanted to go fishing.

Then the ol’ 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 and tie me to the bed and you can do whatever you want”…

So I did and here I am!
