A gentleman strolling alongside the rocks, enjoying the ocean view, observed an old Newfie fisherman and a young boy fishing.
A moment later he heard a splash. The boy had fallen into the water. The old fisherman however, jumped in after the lad, and succeeded in getting him safely to the bank. There he stood, the young victim on his head, and it was at this moment that the gentleman arrived on the scene with profuse expressions of admiration for the prompt rescue.
"It was noble of you," the gentleman declared rather rhetorically, "to
plunge into the water in that way at the risk of your life to save the
boy. I congratulate you on your brave display of heroic magnanimity."
The old fisherman answered with an amiable grin:
"Ok, tank you sir. I’s sure don’t know nuttin bout maga-minnyte, but I just had to git the youngin outta the water. He had al da bait in his pocket.
