Curious Gentleman Ask Old Man What He Is Doing.

It was raining hard and a big puddle had formed in front of an Irish pub.

An old man stood beside the puddle holding a stick with a string on the end and jiggled it up and down in the water.

A curious gentleman asked what he was doing.

“Fishing,” replied the old man.

Poor old fool,” thought the gentleman.

So he invited the old man to have a drink in the pub.

Feeling he should start some conversation while they were sipping their whisky, the gentleman asked,

“And how many have you caught?”

You’re the eighth.”
