A man was
stopped by a game-warden in Tennessee recently with two buckets full of fish.
He was leaving a lake well known for it's fishing.
The game-warden asked the man, "Do you have a license to catch those
fish?" The man replied, "No sir, these are my pet fish."
"Pet fish?!!!" the warden replied. "Yes, sir. Every
night I take these here fish down to KY lake and let them swim around for
awhile. Then I whistle and they jump back into their buckets, and I take
them home again."
"That's a bunch of hooey! Fish can't do that!" The man
looked at the game warden for a moment, and then said, "Here, come with me
and I will show you. It really works." "O.K. I've got to
see this!" The game-warden was curious now.
The man poured the fish in to the river and stood and waited. After
several minutes, the game warden turned to the man and said, "Well?"
"Well... What?" the man responded
"When are you going to call them back?" The warden asked.
"Call who back?" The man asked.
"THE FISH!"
