a fishy story
two avid fishermen go on a fishing trip. they rent all the equipment: the reels, the rods, the wading suits, the rowboat, the car, and even a cabin in the woods. they spend a fortune.
the first day they go fishing, but they don't catch anything. the same thing happens on the second day, and on the third day. it goes on like this until finally, on the last day of their vacation, one of the men catches a fish.
as they're driving home they're really depressed. one guy turns to the other and says, "do you realize that this one lousy fish we caught cost us fifteen hundred dollars?"
the other guy says, "wow! it's a good thing we didn't catch any more!"

late for work
tom had this problem of getting up late in the morning and was always late for work. his boss was mad at him and threatened to fire him if he didn't do something about it. so tom went to his doctor who gave him a pill and told him to take it before he went to bed.
tom slept well and in fact beat the alarm in the morning. he had a leisurely breakfast and drove cheerfully to work. "boss," he said, "the pill actually worked!"
"that's all fine" said the boss. "but where were you yesterday?"
