Four married men went fishing together one day and, as they cast their lines, began talking about what they\u2019d given up to make it happen. The first guy started, saying, \u201cYou have no idea what I had to do this weekend. I promised my wife I\u2019d paint the whole house.\u201d The other guys nodded in understanding, knowing how tough it could be to make such deals.<\/p>\n
But then, the second guy jumped in, eager to one-up the first. \u201cThat\u2019s nothing!\u201d he exclaimed. \u201cI promised my wife I\u2019d build her a new pool deck. Her dream fishing trip was the only way to make it happen after all these years!\u201d<\/p>\n
The third guy, who had been listening intently, laughed and said, \u201cYou both have it easy! I promised to redo the entire kitchen. It\u2019s going to be a ton of work, but I had to join you on this fishing trip!\u201d<\/p>\n
Finally, the fourth guy, who had been quiet up until now, was asked what he\u2019d given up to come along. He grinned slyly and said, \u201cWell, I just set my alarm for 5:30. When it went off, I turned it off, gave my wife a light push, and asked, \u2018Fishing or S**?\u2019 You know what she said? \u2018Put on a sweater.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
The group burst into laughter, impressed with how smoothly he had escaped for a fishing weekend. Sometimes, making a simple, straightforward choice works out the best!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
