Teach a man to fish and the Chinese coast guard will ram his boat
Interesting story:
A german cruise ship was in international waters and a Venezuelan coast guard ship demanded to search. The cruise ship refused.
The venezuelan coast guard ship fired upon the cruise liner demanding that they enter Venezuelan waters to be boarded. The cruise line refused. The Venezuelan coast guard ship then rammed the German cruise liner. The coast guard ship sank and the Cruise liner had minor paint damage.

Not likely. Old Isaac appears to have been asexual.
My wifes boyfriend is such a better fisherman than I.
Technically if it’s Whitman, he is following the man to the lake to bang him.
Isn’t he the chocolates guy?
Are you confusing him with Willy Wonka?
I'm afraid Walt Whitman wasn't exactly after anyone's wife.

Give a man a fish and he'll ask for chips. Give a man chips and he'll beg for salt. Give a man salt and he's going to want a drink. Give a man enough drink, and he'll start complimenting your wife. Give a man your wife and you can go fishing as much as you'd like.
