Ole died. So Lena went to the local paper to put a notice in the
obituaries.
The gentleman at the counter, after offering his condolences, asked Lena
what she would like to say about Ole.
Lena replied, "You yust put 'Ole died'."
The gentleman, somewhat perplexed, said, "That's it? Just 'Ole died'?
Surely,
there must be something more you'd like to say about Ole. If it's money
you're
concerned about, the first five words are free. You just say something
more."
So Lena pondered for a few minutes and finally said,
"OK. You put 'Ole died. Boat for sale'."

Ole was stopped by a game warden in Northern Wisconsin recently leaving
a lake well known
for its Walleyes. He had two buckets of fish.
As it was during the spawning season, the game warden asked, "Do you
have a license to
catch those fish?"
Ole replied, "No, sir! Dese here are my pet fish."
"Pet fish?" the warden replied.
"Ya sure, you betcha." answered Ole. "Every night I take dese fish here
down to da lake and let
dem svim around for a while. Den I vhistle and dey yump back into der
buckets and I take dem home."
"That's a bunch of hooey. Fish can't do that." Said the game warden.
Ole looked at the game warden with an expression of great hurt, and then
said, "Yumpin Yimminy!
Vell den, I'll just show you den. It really does vork, don'tcha know?"
"O.K. I've got to see this!" The game warden was really curious now.
So Ole poured the fish into the lake and stood waiting. After several
minutes, the game warden
turned to Ole and said, "Well?"
"Vell what?" responded Ole.
"When are you going to call them back?"
"Call who back?" asked Ole.
"The fish!"
"What fish?"
