"Rodgera" and "Fenderbelly" were out fishing but caught nothing all
day. Another fisherman walked by with a basket full so they asked
where he caught them.
He replied, "If you just go down the stream until the water is no
longer salty, there are many hungry fish".
They thanked him and set off downstream. "Rodgera" said, "Fill the
bucket up with water and we will test it". "Fenderbelly tested the
water but it was still salty".
They went further downstream, tested the water again but it was
still salty. Another five stops further on and they got the same
result, the water was still salty.
After two hours of walking "Rodgera" said, "This is no good and the
water is still as salty as it was at the start".
"Fenderbelly" replied, "Yeah, I know, and I think we have problems
because the bucket is nearly empty!"
