The fisherman
A chap is fishing and hooks a salmon, he reels it in and is just going to kill it for his dinner when the salmon looks at him and says…
“Hey mate, don’t kill me, I’m only a baby, I haven’t swum the 7 seas yet, give me a chance pal.”
The man looks at the salmon. “You can talk?”
“Course I can, go on put me back, there’s much bigger fish under the bridge.”
“All right.” Says the man,”I’ll put you back, what’s your name?”
“Rusty.” Says the salmon. “And yours?”
“Dave?”
He puts the fish back in the water and resolves to say nothing of this to anyone, fearing that he’ll become a laughing stock.
About ten years later he’s fishing in the same spot and he hooks a monster. It takes him two hours to land it. He looks at it and pictures it on his dinner plate. Just then the salmon opens one eye and looks at him and says.
“Dave, is that you?”
“Rusty, I don’t believe it, it must be 10 years since I let you go, what you been doing?”
“Well Dave, I’ve had a fantastic time, I’ve swum the seven seas and all the oceans. In fact, I’ve just come across the Atlantic, but I was really disturbed.”
“Why’s that Rusty?”
“Well, I was halfway across and a voice told me to swim deeper, so I did, deeper and deeper and I found this huge shipwreck. I counted 4 funnels, it felt like death so I had to leave.”
“Wow rusty, that was the Titanic it sank and almost all on board were drowned.”
“Ah, I knew it, in fact, I was so upset I had to sit down and write a poem about it.” Said Rusty.
“A poem, don’t talk daft, you’re just a fish, how can you write a poem, that’s rubbish.”
“No Dave, really, it’s available in all bookshops now.”
“OK”, Says Dave “So what’s it called then?”
“Salmon Rusty’s titanic verses.”

It's probably safe to put a joke like that on the forum Alex, but I wouldn't be telling it where the listener has the necessary access to meet out the appropriate physical punishment.

Forgive your enemies, but never, ever forget their names.
The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but never forget.
