The Adventures of
MYRTLE & MERLIN
Merlin made several attempts to sell his old car. He was having a lot of problems finding a buyer
because the car had 340,000 miles on it. He discussed his problem with Myrtle, his lovely, intelligent
wife of 5 years. Myrtle suggested, "There may be a chance to sell that car easier, but it's not going to
be legal." "That doesn't matter at all," replied Merlin. "All that matters it that I am able to sell this car."
Alright," replied Myrtle. In a quiet voice, she told Merlin: "Here is the address of a friend of mine. He
owns a car repair shop around here. Tell him I sent you, and he will turn the counter back on your car
to 40,000 miles. Then it shouldn't be a problem to sell your car." The following weekend, Merlin took a
trip to the mechanic on Myrtle s advice. After that, Myrtle talks to Merlin and asked, "Did you sell your
car?" "No!" replied Merlin. "Why should I? It only has 40,000 miles on it. 
During late spring one year, Myrtle was trying out her new boat. She was unable to have her boat
perform, travel through water, or do any maneuvers whatsoever no matter how hard she tried. After
trying for over three days to make it work properly, she decided to seek help. She putted the boat over
to the local marina in hopes that someone there could identify her problem. Workers determined that
everything from the engine to the outdrive was working perfectly on the topside of the boat. So, a
puzzled marina employee jumped into the water to check underneath the boat for problems.
Because he was laughing so hard, he came up choking on water and gasping for air. Under the boat,
still strapped in place securely, was the trailer.
Myrtle was bragging about her knowledge of the state capitals of the United States. She proudly
announced, "go ahead, ask me any of the capitals, I know all of them." Merlin said, O.K., what's the
capital of Wyoming?" Myrtle replied, "Oh, that's easy, 'W'.
