decided to wait a few days before naming them.
They soon noticed that one always looked towards the sea. The other looked away from the
sea. It didn't matter where they were.
The parents named the boys Towards and Away.
When the boys reached 14, their father took them to sea to learn to fish. The trip was
supposed to be short. But the fisherman's wife waited a week before her husband returned, alone.
When she asked where the boys were, the fisherman told her the following strange story.
Towards snagged a large fish early on the first day. He struggled with the fish for nearly 25 hours. Eventually, though, he tired and the fish pulled him over the side of the ship and devoured him.
"Oh, my," said the fisherman's wife. "That must have been a huge fish!"
"Indeed it was," replied her husband, "but you should have seen the one that got Away."
That there is funny
