A man calls home to his wife and says, “Honey, I’ve been asked to go fishing up in Canada with my boss and several of his friends. We’ll be gone for a week.

“This is a good opportunity for me get closer to him and hopefully I’ll get that promotion I’ve been wanting. We have to leave as soon as I get home, so could help me by packing ahead of time? Would you please pack me enough clothes for a week — and, oh, would you set out my rod and tackle box? I’ll swing by the house to on the way to the airport to pick up my things. Oh .. and one more favor, please pack my new blue silk pajamas.”

The wife thinks this all sounds a bit fishy, but being the good wife, she does exactly what her husband asked.

The following weekend he came home a little tired, but otherwise looking good. The wife welcomes him home and asks if he caught many fish.

He says, “Yes! Lots of walleye, some blue gill, and a few pike. But one little thing,though. Why didn’t you pack my new blue silk pajamas like I asked you to?”

The wife replies, “I did. They’re in your tackle box.”
