Bailing out the boat

Mayne and Willard, two hillbillies, were in a rowboat on a lake fishing. Suddenly the spray from a motorboat racing by flooded their boat.

"How we gonna get the water out?" asked Mayne.

"Easy," said Willard. "We just bore a hole in the bottom of the boat and let the water drain out."

The men drilled a hole in the bottom, and more water started rushing in.

"Wait a minute!" exclaimed Mayne. "We need another hole so's the water comin' in through the first one has a place to go back into the lake!"
