It was a cold winter day. An old man walked out onto a frozen lake, cut a hole in the ice, dropped in his fishing line, and waited patiently for a bite. He was there for almost an hour, without even a nibble, when a young boy walked out onto the ice, cut a hole in the ice next to him.<\/p>\n

The young boy dropped his fishing line and minutes later he hooked a Largemouth Bass. The old man couldn\u2019t believe his eyes but chalked it up to plain luck. Shortly thereafter, the young boy pulled in another large catch.<\/p>\n

The young boy kept catching fish after fish. Finally, the old man couldn\u2019t take it any longer. \u201cSon\u201d he said, \u201cI\u2019ve been here for over an hour without even a nibble.You\u2019ve been here only a few minutes and have caught a half dozen fish! How do you do it?\u201dThe boy responded, \u201cRoo raf roo reep ra rums rrarm.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat was that?\u201d the old man asked. Again the boy responded, \u201cRoo raf roo reep ra rums rarrm.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLook,\u201d said the old man, \u201cI can\u2019t understand a word you\u2019re saying sonny.\u201d<\/p>\n

The boy spat the bait into his hand and said\u2026 \u201cYou have to keep the worms warm!\u201d<\/p>\n

A young boy and his dad went out fishing one fine morning.<\/p>\n

After a few quiet hours out in the boat, the boy became curious about the world around him. He looked up at his dad and asked \u201cHow do fish breath under water?\u201d<\/p>\n

His dad thought about it for a moment, then replied, \u201cI really don\u2019t know, son.\u201d<\/p>\n

The boy sat quietly from another moment, then turned back to his dad and asked, \u201cHow does our boat float on the water?\u201d<\/p>\n

Once again his dad replied, \u201cDon\u2019t know, son.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pondering his thoughts again, a short while later, the boy asks \u201cWhy is the sky blue?\u201d<\/p>\n

Again, his dad replied. \u201cDon\u2019t know, son.\u201d<\/p>\n

The inquisitive boy, worried he was annoying his father, asks this time \u201cDad, do you mind that I\u2019m asking you all of these questions?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course not son.\u201d replied his dad, \u201cHow else are you ever going to learn anything?\u201d<\/p>\n

A mother and father in their 40s loved their children very much.<\/p>\n

They had three kids, two of whom were already grown up. Their third child, the youngest, was only 10 years old. They were tucking their young boy in to bed one night when they asked him what he wanted when he grew up.<\/p>\n

Son: Mom, I also want 5 wives. One will cook, one will sing, one will bathe me. Mom: And one will put you to sleep.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
