A young man fell head over heels in love with a young woman. He was so smitten, he proposed right away. She said "We don't know each other. In fact we know nothing about each other!" But he was persistent.

But he was determined and she relented - they got married right away.

They went on a beautiful honeymoon in the islands and one morning they were sitting by the pool. The new husband got up and climbed to the highest diving board and leapt off performing a perfect Swan Dive. He jumped out of the pool, climbed back up and proceeded to nail a Triple Back Somersault. He then went up again and did a Triple Twisting Jack-knife.

He came back to his lounger and toweled himself off.

"That was amazing!!!" said the new bride!

"Oh, thanks... I was an olympic diver - I did OK actually, won a couple of medals."

She was amazed. So pleased.

A few moments later the new bride got up and dove into the pool and started doing laps. The husband no stranger to aquatic excellence watched as she did freestyle, butterfly strokes, breast strokes and back strokes plowing through the water. She must have done 50 lengths with no effort at all.

When she came out of the pool the husband was beaming! "Well," he said "I can see you also were a top level competitor! Excellent technique!"

"Oh, no" she stated "I was never a competitive swimmer, I was a hooker in Halifax and worked both sides of the harbor."
