A friend, driving home from a fishing
trip in northern Michigan with his boat in tow, had engine trouble a few
miles inland from Lake Huron. He didn't have a CB radio in his car, so he
decided to use his marine radio to get help. Climbing into his boat, he
broadcast his call letters and asked for assistance. A Coast Guard officer
responded, "Please give your location." "I'm on
Interstate-75, two miles south of Standish." The officer paused,
"Could you repeat that?" "I-75, two miles south of
Standish." A longer pause. Then an incredulous voice asked, "How
fast were you going when you hit shore?"
- "As I said before, I never
repeat myself."
Dear Dog,
I am so sorry about you being sent to
the dog pound for the broken lamp which you did not break;
the
fish you did not spill; and the carpet that you did not wet; or the wall that
you did not dirty with red paint.
Things here at the house are calmer now, and just to show you that
I have no hard feelings towards you, I am sending you a picture, so you will
always remember me.
Best regards,
The Cat
