[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 408483, member: 15636"] The taxation office suspected that a commercial fisherman/boat owner wasn't paying their boat bills and taxes properly and sent an Auditor out to investigate them. [color=#FF0000]Auditor[/color]: "Sir, I'll need a list of your boat expenses and bills and proof you been paying them." [color=#0000FF]Fisherman[/color]: "Well, there's the boat store for parts and supplies, the bait store for bait so I can catch fish to sell, my mechanic for maintenance and repairs and then the gas dock for fuel just so I can leave the darn dock. I pay them $1,000s per year, plus an arm & a leg!” “And then there's that [i]mentally challenged guy[/i]. He works from dawn to dusk, about 18 hours a day, 6 or more days per week and does 96% of the work around here. He only makes maybe $10 an hour when you get down to it and then has to pay for his own room and board. We buy him a bottle of Jack Daniels and a 12-pack of Budweiser ever Saturday night just so he can cope with life.” “Oh yeah, and he also gets to sleep with my wife occasionally." [color=#FF0000]Auditor[/color]: "Wow … then that's the guy I want to speak with - the mentally challenged one!" [color=#0000FF]Fisherman[/color]: "Well sir … now that'll be me.
