· Earl and Bubba are quietly sitting in a boat fishing,
chewing tobacco and drinking beer when suddenly Bubba says, "Think I'm
gonna divorce the wife... she ain't spoke to me in over 2 months."
Earl spits overboard, takes a long, slow sip of beer and says, "Better think it over... women like that are hard to find."
