Making good progress - enjoy that dorado! Gail said you actually liked the bad jokes I sent. So, given that, I"ll inflict another on you:
Two old friends decide to sail to Hawaii one afternoon and become lost. After twenty hours with nothing to eat or drink, one of them spots a lamp floating by. He picks it up and a genie pops out. The genie notices the poor condition of the crew and grants them one wish between the two of them. After a lot of arguing over who gets the wish, one of them blurts out, "I wish the ocean was made of beer." Magically, the ocean turns to beer. Infuriated, the other guy yells, "You idiot! Now we have to pee in the boat!"
So extremely bad I just have to pass it along:
A boater brings his boat up to a restaurant dock to eat dinner. The dockhand says,
"I'm sorry, sir, but I can't let you dine here tonight. This establishment has a necktie policy for the evening meal and you are not wearing one."
The boater said, "I'm sure I don't have a tie on my boat!"
The dockhand, not wanting to turn away a customer, said, "Well, why don't you just find something that approximates a tie. I'm sure that will be okay."
After some time, the boater emerged from his cabin sporting a pair of jumper cables. "Sorry", the boater said," but this is all I could find to put around my neck."
Sighing, the dockhand said "okay, I'll let you in with those, but just don't start anything."
