I'm reminded of a joke I found very funny as an adolescent. Adam and Eve had just discovered sex, but they wondered what to do about the discomfort of being sticky afterward. In his nightly discussion with God, he brought up the problem.

While God was thinking it over, He suddenly noticed Adam was alone. "Where is Eve?"

"She's at the river, washing herself," answered Adam.

"Oh, no!" God complained. "Now all the fish are going to smell like that!"
