Here's a joke my mentor told me. You might appreciate it.

A writer and a producer are falling through the desert nearly dead from thirst, when, from over a sand dune, they both see an oasis of clear, shining, clean fresh water. They run over to it and just as the writer is about to drink from it, the producer drops his pants and pisses in the water.

The writer looks up at him, furious, and scream "what did you do that for?"

The producer pulls up his pants and says "I just wanted to make it better."
