Two hunters wanted to go hunting on a remote island where they had been successful the previous year.
The only way to get there was to hire Captain Barbra, of 'Sea Genie'
to sail them out to the distant location.
The two hunters were let ashore on this uncharted desert isle.
After a successful day of hunting, they shot their limit of two bull elk each.
They waited until captain Barbra sailed back around to pick them up and tried to load the four trophies on board.
"You can't do that. This sailboat isn't big enough to carry all four animals. The Sea Genie will capsize. You'll have to leave two of them behind."
The two hunters were insistent. They argued that last year, the captain let them bring all four elk back and he sailed the same model boat as Captain Barbra.
Captain Barbra relented and agreed to give it a try.
After getting the four trophies aboard, they sailed carefully through the archipelago until they went through a pass where the wind gusted, tossing the tiny ship over.
The two hunters crawled up onto a nearby beach and one comments, "What a disaster. I wonder where we are."
The other hunter looks excited when he says, "I know where we are. This is the same beach we crawled up onto after our boat sank last year.

16 Of The Most Profound Jokes Ever Told
An American businessman was at the pier of a small coastal Mexican village when a small sailboat with just one fisherman docked. Inside the small sailboat were several large yellowfin tuna. The American complimented the fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took to catch them. The fisherman replied that it only took a little while. The American then asked why didn't he stay out longer and catch more fish. The fisherman said he had enough to support his family's immediate needs.
The American then asked, "But what do you do with the rest of your time?"
The fisherman said, "I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, take siesta with my wife, Maria, stroll into the village each evening where I sip wine and play guitar with my amigos. I have a full and busy life, señor."
The American scoffed. "I am a Wharton MBA and could help you. You should spend more time fishing and with the proceeds, buy a bigger boat. With the proceeds from the bigger boat you could buy several boats. Eventually you would have a fleet of fishing boats. Instead of selling your catch to a middleman you would sell directly to the processor, eventually opening your own cannery. You would control the product, processing and distribution. You would need to leave this small coastal fishing village and move to Mexico City, then L.A., and eventually New York City, where you will run your expanding enterprise."
The fisherman asked, "But how long will this all take?"
To which the American replied, "Fifteen or 20 years."
"But what then?"
The American laughed and said, "That's the best part. When the time is right you would announce an IPO and sell your company stock to the public and become very rich. You would make millions."
"Millions? Then what?"
The American said, "Then you would retire. Move to a small coastal fishing village where you would sleep late, fish a little, play with your kids, take siesta with your wife, stroll to the village in the evenings where you could sip wine and play your guitar with your friends." —Andrew Udell
... and because I know you saw that coming, I offer you this pearl of wisdom,
"Make me one with everything," requests the Buddhist to the tofu hot dog vendor.
Then, after getting his tofu hot dog, the Buddhist hands the vendor a $20 bill.
The vendor takes the money and begins helping the next customer.
The Buddhist looks puzzled and asks the vendor, "Where is my change?"
The vendor replies, "Change comes from within." —Liam Gorman

Change may come from within but incentive seems to come from an ex-wife and the IRS.
I thought change comes from the cushions of my couch.

Seen on the Internet... It must be true...
"My new SUV has a button that says, ‘Rear Wiper’. I’m afraid to push it."

Wouldn't that be embarrassing in the middle of highway I5.
