The weather was very hot, so a man wanted desperately take a dip in the nearby lake. He didn't bring his bathing suit, but since he was all alone he didn't care. He undressed and got into the water.

After some delightful minutes of cool swimming, a pair of old ladies walked onto the shore in his direction. He panicked, got out of the water, and grabbed a bucket on the sandy beach. He held the bucket in front of his private parts and sighed with relief.

The ladies got nearby and looked at him. He felt awkward and wanted to move.

One of the ladies said, "You know, I have a special gift -- I can read minds."

"Impossible," said the embarrassed man. "You really know what I think?"

"Yes," the lady replied, "I know that you think that the bucket you're holding has a bottom in it."
