Blonde Couples

"Blonde Couples"*

*One October my wife and I spent a vacation on Washington's
Olympic Peninsula. We were eager to visit the rain forests
near the coast, but we heard that snow slides had made
some of the roads impassable. Although apprehensive about
the conditions we might run into, we drove on.

Sure enough, we had gone only a short way up the High Rain
Forest road when we saw a sign: "Ice 10 miles." Five miles
farther on there was another: "Ice 5 miles." The next one
was: "Ice 1/2 mile." We practically crept that half-mile.

We came to the last sign. It was outside a small grocery,
and it read: "Ice 75 cents."

"Fishing Blondes"*

*There were two good ol' boys from the South, who love to
fish, and they wanted to do some ice fishing. They'd heard
about it up in Canada, so they took off up there. The lake
was frozen nicely. They stopped just before they got to
the lake at a little bait shop and got all their tackle.
One of them said, "We're gonna need an ice pick." So they
got that, and they took off.

In about two hours, one of them was back at the shop and
said, "We're gonna need another dozen ice picks."

Well, the fellow in the shop wanted to ask some questions,
but he didn't. He sold him the picks, and the old boy left.
In about an hour, he was back. Said, "We're gonna need all
the ice picks you've got."

The bait man couldn't stand it any longer. "By the way," he
asked, "how are you fellows doing?"

"Not very well at all," he said. "We ain't even got the boat
in the water yet."
