There were two brothers named Jones. One was John and the other Joe. Joe
was single and had a dilapidated old boat. John was married. The day John's wife died,
Joe's boat filled up with water and sank. A few days later, a kindly old lady met Joe and
mistaking him for John, who lost his wife, said "I was sorry to hear about your great
loss, I'm sure you feel terrible."
Joe said; "I'm not
sorry a bit, she was a rotten old thing anyway right from the start. Her bottom was chewed
up and she smelled like fish. The first time I got into her she made water faster than
anything I ever saw. She had a crack in her back and a hole in her bottom that got bigger
every time I used her, but when anyone else tried to use her she leaked like Hell!"
"This is what finished
her. Four guys from town came looking for a good time, and they wanted to rent her. I
warned them what she was like, but they said they didn't care and that they would take a
crack at her anyway. The result was all four tried to get into her at once and it was just
too much for her, she split right up the middle!"
