The fisherman had hard luck and on his way home he entered a fish store and
said to the dealer : “Just stand where you are and throw me five out of the
biggest fish you have in the place.” “But why throw ‘em?” asked the dealer in
amazement. “So I can tell my family I caught them," replied the fisherman. “I
may be a poor fisherman, but I am no liar.”

A Hollywood producer suggested to his secretary that she accompany him to
Palm Springs for a weekend trip. "Listen" she snapped, “I may be your type
writer, but I am not portable.”
