A Bit of Rainy-Day Humor

Two old men, named Bill and Jimbo, were out on a lake fishing one day. These two had fished together and been best friends since they were kids. They grew up, joined a local bass club, did tournaments, grew old, retired, and now just lived the life they always had dreamed about...spending time on the water.

One day, Bill looked at Jimbo and asked, "Do you think there is bass fishin' in Heaven?"

Jimbo replied, "Ya know, I never really thought about it, but whichever one of us dies first needs to come back and let the other one know if God lets us go fishin' up there."

Bill agreed, and they laughed off the conversation.

A few weeks later, Jimbo suddenly passed away of old age. Some time went by, and Bill kept thinking about his fishin' buddy all the while. Then, one night while Bill was aleep, Jimbo appeared to him as an angel. Startled, Bill was excited to see his ol' buddy and couldn't help but ask, "Hey, is there fishin' in Heaven?"

Jimbo replied, "Well, do you want the good news or the bad news first?"

Bill quickly said, "Give me the good news."

"Lucky for us, there is fishin' in Heaven," Jimbo replied.

"OK!" noted an excited Bill, "What's the bad news?"

Jimbo responded, "Well, you see, there's a tournament this weekend, and God said He needs a co-angler, so you're comin' with me!"
