A young blonde woman in New York was so depressed that she decided to
end her life by throwing herself into the ocean. She went down to the
docks and was about to leap into the frigid water when a handsome young
sailor saw her tottering on the edge of the pier, crying. He took pity
on her and said, "Look, you've got a lot to live for. I'm off to Europe
in the morning and, if you like, I can stow you away on my ship. I'll
take good care of you and bring you food every day." Moving closer, he
slipped his arm round her shoulder and added, "I'll keep you happy, and
you'll keep me happy." The girl nodded yes. After all, what did she
have to lose? That night, the sailor brought her aboard and hid her in
a lifeboat. From then on, every night he brought her three sandwiches
and a piece of fruit, and they made passionate love until dawn. Three
weeks later, during a routine inspection, she was discovered by the
captain.
"What are you doing here?" the captain asked. "I have an arrangement
with one of the sailors," she explained. "I get food and a trip to
Europe, and he's screwing me."
"He sure is, lady," the captain said, "This is the Staten Island
Ferry."
