[nilesfunnies] Fw: I name this boat ...


My friend wanted a boat more than anything. A life on the ocean wave, or
at least in the coastal waters, was his life's dream. But his wife kept
refusing, saying it was too expensive, they could never afford it, etc.
In the end he bought one anyway.

"I'll tell you what," he told her. "In the spirit of compromise, why
don't you name the boat?" And being a good sport, she accepted.

When her husband went to the dock for the maiden voyage, and stood proud
in his water-proofs, mae-west and yachting shoes watching his boat come
in, he saw for the first time the name his wife had painted on the side:
"For Sale."
