A Ozark American was stopped by a game warden in Arkansas
recently with two ice chests of fish. He was leaving a cove well known for its fishing.
The game warden asked the man, "Do you have a license to catch those fish?"
>
> "Naw, sir, I ain't got none of them there licenses,
> no. You must understand these here are my pet fish."
>
> "Pet fish?" said the game warden.
> "Ya.. Every night I take these here fish down to da
> lake and let them swim 'round for a while. Then I whistle and they jump rat
> back into this here ice chest and I take them home."
>
> "That's a bunch of hooey! Fish can't do that!" says
> the warden
>
> The hillbilly looked at the game warden for a moment
> and then said, "It's the truth Mr. Government man, I'll show you. It really works."
>
> "Okay," said the game warden, " I've GOT to see this!"
>
> The hillbilly poured the fish into the lake and stood and waited.
> After several minutes, the game warden turned to him and said,
>
> "Well?"
>
> "Well, what?" said the hillbilly.
> The warden said, "When are you going to call them back?"
> The hillbilly said, "Call who back?"
> "The FISH!" replied the warden.
> "What fish?" answered the hillbilly.
>
> We in Arkansas may not be as smart as some city
> slickers, but we aren't as dumb as most government employees.
