We can laugh or cry. What makes us different from some is that our sence of humor was not shot off in the war

More From LG

LG sent us something to contemplate. Please, do not proceed if children, of whatever age, are present. There is something to be learned - Rules must be applied to all:

A little boy comes down to breakfast. Since they live on a farm, his mother asks if he has done his chores.

"not yet,", said the little boy. His mother tells him no breakfast till the shores are done. Well, he's a little annoyed, so he goes to feed the chickens, and he kicks a chicken. He feeds the cows, and he kicks a cow. He feeds the pigs, and he kicks a pig.

He goes back for breakfast, and his mother gives him a bowl of dry cereal. "How come I don't get any eggs and bacon? Why don't I have any milk in my cereal", he asks.

"Well," his mother says, "I saw you kick a chicken, so you don't get any eggs for a week. I saw you kick the pig, so you don't get any bacon for a week either. I also saw you kick the cow, so for a week you aren't getting any milk." Just then, his father comes down for breakfast and kicks the cat halfway across the kitchen. Wait for it:

The little boy looks up at his mother and with a smile says: "Are you going to tell him, or should I?"

Barney shares with us employment information:

The women applying for a job in a florida lemon grove seemed to be far too qualified for the job.

The Foreman frowned and said, I have to ask you this: "Have you had any experience in picking lemons?"

She responded, "Well as a matter of fact, I have! I've been divorced three times, owned two junkers, and voted for Obama." She was hired on the spot!

Sgt John provided this CDC Alert:

Very important information has just been made available that I think is something you should all be aware of:

Gonorrhea Lectim

The Center for Disease Control has isssued a warning about a new virulent strain of this old disease.

The desease is scalled Connorrhea Lectim. It's pronounced "Conna re-elect "im."

The desease is contracted through dangerous and high risk behavior involving purring your canium up your rectum.

Many victims contracted it in 2008..... but now most people after having been infected for the past1-2 years are starting to realize how destructive the sickness is. It's sad because it is so easily cured with a new procedure just coming on the market called Votemout!

You take the first dose/step in 2010 and the second dosage in 2012. Then simply don't engage in such behavior again. Otherwise, it could become permanent and eventually wipe out all life as we know it.

Several states are already on top of this, Virninia, New Jersey and Massachusetts with many more seeing the writing on the wall.

My favorite Professor, Dr. Ron, shared his experience with me:

Luxury cars are soon to be a thing of the past. They have always been just beyond my means, but we took out a Cadillac Escalade for a test drive, just to drive that sucker before they become extinct.

The salesman sat in the back seat describing the car and all its wonderful options. The seats were of particular interest. He explained that the seats directed warm air to your butt in the winter and directed cold air to your butt in the summer heat.

I stated the car must be a Rebublican car.

He asked why I thought it was a Republican car and I explained that if it were a Democrat car, the seats would blow smoke up your ass year-round.

Sgt John thought this historical perspective was of interest:

Some of you will recall that on July 8, 1947, a little over 60 years ago, witnesses claim that an unidentified flying object (UFO) with five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep and mule ranch just outside Roswell, New Mexico. This is a well known incident that many say has long been covered up by the US Air Force, other federal agencies and organizations.

However, what you may NOT know is that in the month of April 1948, nine months after that historic day, the following people were born:

Albert A. Gore, Jr. (March 31, 1948
Hillary Rodham (October 26, 1947
John F. Kerry (December 11, 1943
William J. Clinton (August 19, 1946
Howard Dean (November 17, 1948
Nancy Pelosi (March 26, 1940
Dianne Feinstein (June 22, 1933)
Charles E. Shumer (November 23, 1950)
Barbara Boxer (November 11, 1940)

See what happens when aliens breed with sheep and jackasses? I certainly hope this bit of information clears up a lot of things for you. It did for me! [Webmaster added birthdates. Still funny and AlGore is close.]

Barney provided the following for our amusement:

A burglar broke into a house one night. He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables, when a voice in the darkness said, "Jesus Christ knows you're here." He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked off his flashlight and froze. When He heard nothing more, after a bit, he shook his head and continued. Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, clear as a bell he heard, "Jesus Christ is watching you." Freaked out, he shined his light around , frantically looking for the source of the voice. Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam came to rest on a parrot.

"Did you say that", the burglar hissed at the Watch Parrot. "Yep", the parrot confessed, then squawked, "I'm just trying to warn you that he is watching you." The burglar relaxed. "Warn me huh?" "Who In the world are you?" "Moses", replied the bird.

"Moses?", the burglar laughed. "What kind of people would name a bird Moses?" Replied the parrot,

"the kind of people who would name a Rottweiler Jesus Christ."

Life and death:
An Elderly man suffered a massive heart attack. The family drove wildly to get him to the emergency room.

After what seemed like a very long time, the ER Doctor appeared, wearing his scrubs and a long face.

Sadly, he said, "I'm afraid he is brain- dead, but his heart is still beating."

"Oh, Dear God," cried his wife, her hands clasped against her cheeks with shock!

"We've never had a Democrat in the family before!"

Sgt John has asked us to support circulation of an E-mail forwarding list. He provided the following:

As a rule, I don't pass along these "add your name" lists that appear in email, but this one is important. It has been circulating for months. Please keep it going.

To show your support for Obama's health care reform, please go to the end of the list and add your name

Senior Statesman Bill passed-on an observation from a relative

Near Fredericksburg, Texas, where there is a large German-speaking population, a farmer walking down a country road notices a man drinking from his pond with his hand.

The farmer shouted: 'Trink das wasser nicht. Die hkuhen haben dahen gesheissen.' (Which means 'don't drink the water, the cows have s*** in it')

The man shouted back: I'm from New York and just down here campaigning for Obama's health care plan, I can't understand you. Please speak English.' The farmer replied: 'Use two hands, you'll get more.'

Gunner Jane says this is funny only because some will think so. Pass to a thousand of your friends!!!

Sgt John calls our attention to the subject of divorce. We can all support an equal and equitable sharing of assets earned by each:

THIS IS SO INCREDIBLY WELL PUT AND I CAN HARDLY BELIEVE IT'S BY A YOUNG
PERSON, A STUDENT!!! WHATEVER HE RUNS FOR, I'LL VOTE FOR HIM.
OUTSTANDING!

Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists,
Marxists, Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950's, but the whole of this
latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I
know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future
generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two
ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is
right so let's just end it on friendly terms... We can smile and chalk
it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

Here is a model separation agreement:

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each
taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our
two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be
relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly
divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate
tastes.

We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are
welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU, and abortion clinics.
Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA
and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie
O'Donnell...

We'll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical
companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved
homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens. We'll keep the hot
Alaskan hockey moms and rednecks. We'll keep the Bibles and give you
NBC and Hollywood .

You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right
to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the
peaceniks, and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are
under assault, we'll help provide them security.

We'll keep our Judeo-Christian values. You are welcome to Islam,
Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N.,
but we will no longer be paying the bill.

We'll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can
take every Subaru station wagon you can find.

You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing
doctors. We'll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a
right. We'll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National
Anthem. I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute I'd Like to Teach the
World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya or We Are the World.

We'll practice trickle down economics and you can give trickle up
poverty your best shot. Since it often so offends you, we'll keep our
history, our name and our flag.

Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like
minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just
hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll bet you
which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

Sincerely,

John J. Wall
Law Student and an American

P.S. Also, please take Barbara Streisand and Jane Fonda with you!

Dr. Ron provided us an excellent example of the unbiased reporting we have come to expect.

A harley rider is passing the zoo when he sees a little girl leaning into the lion's cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter her, under the eyes of her screaming parents.

The biker jumps off his bike, runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch. Whimpering from the pain, the lion jumps back, letting go of the girl. The biker brings her to her terrified parents, who thank him endlessly..A New York Times reporter has watched the whole event. The reporter says, "Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing I saw a man do in my whole life."

The biker replies, "Why, it was nothing, really, the lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger, and acted accordingly. The reporter says, "Well, I'm a journalist from the New York Times, and tomorrow's paper will have this stroy on the front page...So, what do you do for a living and what political affiliation do you have?"

The biker replies, "I'm a U.S. Marine and a Republican." The following morning the biker buys the New York Times to see if it indeed brings news of his deed, and reads, on the front page:

We have another Internet alert. Sgt John tells us that we may not be safe eating tinned pork.

No problem - it is just spam!!!

To supplement the advise we got about Barackside, below, Gunner Jane found another medication. She is sure our President uses it and she wants to be sure we are all treated equally under the healthcare reform act.

When I was a little fellow, and I admit that was a long time ago, we could either suck it up, rub dirt on it or use the most reliable disinfectant of them all: Hydrogen Peroxide. Got a bottle in my medicine cabinet today. Sgt John has found a new variation. Use it with care.

No matter what one might think of President Obama's policies, he gives Sgt John lots of stuff

Virus Alert and The Dream
Sgt John received the following virus alert:

Nude Photo Alert: If you get an email titled "nude photos of Sarah Palin," don't open it. It could contain a virus. if you get an email titled "nude photos of Nancy Pelosi," don't open it. It could contain nude photos of Nancy Pelosi.

He says that after receiving the email, he had a dream:

How to Identifiy a Republican
A woman in a hot air ballon realized that she was lost. She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below.She shouted to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him and hour ago, but I don't know where I am.

The consulted his portable GPS and replied, ""you're in a hot air ballon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes North latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes West longitude."

She rolled her eyes and said, "you must be a Republican."

I am, replied the man. How did you know?"

"Well," answered the ballonist, "everything you told me is technically correct. But I have no idea what to do with your information, and I am still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me."

The man smiled and responded, "you must be an Obama Democrat!"

"I am," replied the ballonist. "How did you know?"

"Well," said the man, "you don't know where you are and don't know where you are going. You've risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. You're exactly in the same position you were in before we met, but somehow, now, it's my fault."

Mary Lou has, again, located information not covered by the news outlets. There has been
a celebrity fatality because of the swine flue. She has a suspected source of the infection.

We have found the source of the infection

Sergeant John has acknowledged that his liberal friends were RIGHT AGAIN

They told me if I voted for John McCain, the nation's hope would deteriorate, and sure enough there has been a 20 point drop in the Consumer Confidence Index since the election, reaching a lower point than any time during the Bush administration.

They told me if I voted for McCain, the US would become more deeply embroiled in the Middle East, and sure enough tens of thousands of additional troops are scheduled to be deployed into Afghanistan.

They told me if I voted for McCain, that the economy would get worse and sure enough unemployment is approaching 8.8% and the new stimulus packages implemented recently have sent the stock market lower than at anytime since 9-11.

They told me if I voted for McCain, we would see more "crooks" in high ranking positions in Federal government and sure enough, several recent cabinet nominees and other Senate controlled appointments revealed resumes of bribery and tax fraud.

Well, I ignored my Democrat friends in November and I voted for McCain. And they were right....all of their predictions have come true.

Sgt John sent one that may be instructive:

Mary Lou sent one that depicts the feelings of we all as we approach April 15th:

Ranger Randy did some research and was able to find the answer to a question that has plagued us all. We have the Greatest Generation; the Silent Generation; Baby Boomers, Generation X and Generation Y. Why Generation Y? Now we have the answer:

Born 1980-1995

Mary Lou has provided another:

NEW ORLEANS CRABS

A man boarded an airplane in New Orleans with a box of frozen crabs and asked a blonde, female crew member to take care of the box for him. She took the box and promised to put it in the crew's refrigerator.

He pointedly advised her that he was holding her personally responsible for the crabs staying frozen, memtioned that he was a lawyer, and proceeded to rant at her about what would happen if she let them thaw out.

Needless to say, she was annoyed by his behavior.

Shortly before landing in New York, she used the intercom to announce to the entire cabin,
"Would the lawyer who gave me the crabs in New Orleans please raise your hand?"

No ones hand went up...so she took them home and ate them.

TWO LESSONS HERE
1. Men never learn
2. Blondes aren't as dumb as some men think.

Now before you all jump on me for being one of those male pigs, this was provided to me by a young lady who joins me in a very exclusive club. We think she, I and its founder, her uncle, may be the only members. Mary Lou and I do not fear, however, being a minority.

February 27, 2009

A Marine and the media

Katie Couric, Charlie Gibson, Brian Williams and a tough old U.S. Marine Sergeant were captured by terrorists in Iraq. The leader of the terrorists told them he'd grant each of them one last request before they were beheaded and dragged naked through the streets.

Katie Couric said, 'Well, I'm a Southerner, so I'd like one last plate of fried chicken.' The leader nodded to an underling who left and returned with the chicken. Couric ate it all and said, 'Now I can die content.

Charlie Gibson said, 'I'm living in New York, so I'd like to hear the song 'The Moon and Me' one last time." The terrorist's leader nodded to another terrorist who had studied the Western world and knew the music. He returned with some rag-tag musicians and played the song. Gibson was satisfied.

Brian Williams said, 'I'm a reporter to the end. I want to take out my tape recorder and describe the scene here and what's about to happen. Maybe, someday, someone will hear it and know that I was on the job till the end.' The leader directed an aide to hand over the tape recorder and Williams dictated his comments. He then said, 'Now I can die happy.'

The leader turned and said, 'And now, Mr. US Marine, what is your final wish?

'Kick me in the ass,' said the Marine.

'What?’ asked the leader, 'will you mock us in your last hour?’

'No, I'm NOT kidding. I want you to kick me in the ass,' insisted the Marine.

So the leader shoved him into the yard and kicked him in the ass. The Marine went sprawling, but rolled to his knees, pulled a 9 mm pistol from inside his cammies and shot the leader dead. In the resulting confusion, he emptied his sidearm on six terrorists, with his knife he slashed the throat of one with an AK-47, which he took, and sprayed the rest of the terrorists killing another 11.

In a flash, all of them were either dead or fleeing for their lives.

As the Marine was untying Couric, Gibson and Williams, they asked him, 'Why didn't you just shoot them all in the first place? Why did you ask him to kick you in the ass?'

'What?!' replied the Marine, 'and have you three assholes report that I was the aggressor!!!'

I was depressed last night so I called Lifeline. I got a call center in Pakistan. I told them I was suicidal. They got all exicited and asked me if I could drive a truck.

It was the first day of a school in USA and a new Indian student named Chandrasekhar Subramanian entered the fourth grade.The teacher said,"Let's begin by reviewing some American History. Who said 'Give me Liberty , or give me Death'?"

She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Chandrasekhar, who had his hand up: 'Patrick Henry, 1775' he said.

'Very good!'Who said 'Government of the People, by the People, for the People, shall not perish from the Earth?'

Again, no response except from Chandrasekhar. 'Abraham Lincoln, 1863' said Chandrasekhar.

The teacher snapped at the class, 'Class, you should be ashamed. Chandrasekhar, who is new to our country, knows more about its history than you do.

'She heard a loud whisper: '**** the Indians,''Who said that?' she demanded. Chandrasekhar put his hand up. 'General Custer, 1862.'

At that point, a student in the back said, 'I'm gonna puke.'

The teacher glares around and asks 'All right! Now, who said that?'Again, Chandrasekhar says, 'George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991.'

Now furious, another student yells, 'Oh yeah? **** this!'

Chandrasekhar jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the teacher , 'Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!'

Now with almost mob hysteria someone said 'You little ****. If you say anything else, I'll kill you.'

Chandrasekhar frantically yells at the top of his voice, ' Michael Jackson to the child witnesses testifying against him, 2004.'

The teacher fainted.

And as the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, 'Oh ****, we're ******!'

And Chandrasekhar said quietly, 'I think it was the American people, November 4th, 2008".

US NAVY RELEASES AL QAEDA TERRORISTS!!!

Can you believe it??!! The US Navy announced that it has released a senior Al Qaeda terrorist after questioning him for 27 days while being held aboard a U.S. aircraft carrier in the Arabian Sea. In a humanitarian gesture, the terrorist was givin $50 in U.S currency and a white 1962 Falcon automobile upon being released from custody. This photo shows the terrorist on his way home after being released from custody.

The Moonbat Hunter sent this report of a seasoned citizen who can still think fast.

An elderly man in Louisiana had owned a large farm for several years. He had a large pond in the back.

It was properly shaped for swimming, so he fixed it up - nice picnic tables, horseshoe courts, and some apple and peach trees.

One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the pond as he had not visited it for some time. He took a five-gallon bucket with him to bring back some fruit. As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee. As he came closer, he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his pond.

He made the women aware of his presense and they all went to the deep end. One of the women shouted to him, We're not coming out until you leave! The old man frowned and said, "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim naked or make you get out of the pond naked."

I JUST CAME TO FEED THE ALLIGATORS!!!

Okyay Bagdat sent an excellent example of discrimination. We must all repudiate, everyone else is repudiating something, this sort of blatant discrimination.

Some Day

Sgt John sent me another. Several years ago, he sent me a video that caused him to fear my wife. We talked about a restraining order and other protection. Now, once more, he provides one that cannot be ignored. He can rest easy. She Who Must be Obeyed says, "Right On."

GENEOLOGY

A little girl asked her father, "how did the human race appear?" The father answered, "God made Adam and Eve; they made children; and so was all mankind made"

Two days later, the girl asked her mother the same question. The mother answered, "Many years ago there were monkeys from which the human race evolved."

The confused girl returned to her father and said, "Dad, how is it possible that you told me the human race was created by God, and Mom said they developed from monkeys?

The father answered, "Well, Dear, it is very simple. I told you about my side of the family, and your mother told you about hers."

This is done on the humor page only because it was treated humoursly. Evolution is called a "theory" because it is exactly that.

Sgt John sent this one. Hopefully, it will not increase your consumption of adult beverages. I immediately went to my bar and
poured a drink just to protect myself against such touching.

1919 Poster for prohibition

Sometimes when reading what sounds funny, one suddenly discovers a sad turth. The following was provided by a proud mother whose son is serving his country in Iraq:

1. COWS
2. THE CONSTITUTION
3. THE TEN COMMANDMENTS

COWS: Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington. And, they tracked her calves to thier stalls. But, they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country. Maybe we should give them all a cow.

THE CONSTITUTION: They keep talking about drafting a constitution for Iraq. Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it's worked for over 200 years and we're not using it anymore.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS: The real reason we can't have the Ten Commandments in the courthouse...You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery" and "Thou Shalt Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians - it creates a hostile work environment.

Sgt John has alerted us to a story that the major news sources missed.

US Senator Unhurt in Air Crash

The Unassociated Press reported that New York Junior Senator, Hillary Clinton, narrowly escaped injury when the aircraft she was piloting had to make an emergency landing in Southern New Jersey because of bad weather.

NTSB Investigators have determined that the cause of the crach was pilot error. Onboard fire was most likely avoided because of insufficient fuel onboard. There were no injuries. The NTSB released the following photo of the crash site.

News From the "Other" Border

The flood of American liberals sneaking across the border into Canada has intensified in the past week, sparking calls for increased patrols to stop the illegal immigration.

The unflinching arrogance of the Bush Administration is prompting the exodus among liberal citizens who fear they'll soon be required to hunt, pray, and agree with Bill O'Reilly.

Canadian border farmers say it's not uncommon to see dozens of sociology professors, animal-rights activists, and Unitarians crossing their fields at night.

"I went out to milk the cows the other day, and there was a Hollywood producer huddled in the barn," said Manitoba farmer Red Greenfield, whose acreage borders North Dakota. The producer was cold, exhausted and hungry."He asked me if I could spare a latte and some free-range chicken. When I said I didn't have any, he left. Didn't even get a chance to show him my screenplay."

In an effort to stop the illegal aliens, Greenfield erected higher fences, but the liberals scaled them. So he tried installing speakers that blare Rush Limbaugh across the fields. "Not real effective," he said. "The liberals still got through, and Rush annoyed the cows so much they wouldn't give milk"

Officials are particularly concerned about smugglers who meet liberals near the Canadian border, pack them into Volvo station wagons, drive them across the border and leave them to fend for themselves. "A lot of these people are not prepared for rugged conditions," an Ontario border patrolman said. "I found one carload without a drop of drinking water. They did have a pleasant little Napa Valley cabernet, though."

When liberals are caught, they're sent back across the border, often wailing loudly that they fear retribution from conservatives. Rumors have been circulating about the Bush administration establishing re-education camps in which liberals will be forced to drink domestic beer and watch NASCAR.

Liberals have turned to sometimes-ingenious ways of crossing the border. Some have taken to posing as senior citizens on bus tripsto buy cheap Canadian prescription drugs. After catching a half-dozen young vegans disguised in powdered wigs, Canadian immigration authorities began stopping buses and quizzing the supposed senior-citizen passengers. "If they can't identify the accordion player on The Lawrence Welk Show, we get suspicious about their age," an official said.

Canadian citizens have complained that the illegal immigrants are creating an organic-broccoli shortage and renting all the good Susan Sarandon movies. "I feel sorry for American liberals, but the Canadian economy just can't support them," an Ottawa resident said. "How many art-history majors does one country need?"

In an effort to ease tensions between the United States and Canada, Vice President Dick Cheney met with the Canadian ambassador and pledged that the administration would take steps to reassure liberals, a source close to Cheney said. "We're going to have some Peter, Paul & Mary concerts. And we might put some endangered species on postage stamps. The president is determined to reach out."

Sgt John has alerted us of another possible scandle in Washington. He says that all of the evidence is not in but it appeare that Secretary of State Rice may have slept with Senator Ted Kennedy. He will provide details as they become available. Now, all he has is the photograph that seems to be probative.

Sgt John provided a story about a new Navy Reduction- in- Force Program.

The Navy found they had too many officers and decided to offer an early retirement bonus. They promosed any officer who volunteered for early retirement a bonus of $1000.00 dollars for each inch measured in a straight line between any two parts of his body. The officer got to choose what those two parts would be.

The first officer who accepted asked that he be measured from the top of his head to the tip of his toes. He was measured at six feet and walked out with a bonus of $72,000.

The second officer who accepted was a little smarter and asked to be measured from the tip of his up-streatched hands to his toes. He walked out with 96,000.

The third was a non-commissioned officer, a grizzly old Master Chief. When asked how he would like to be measured, he replied, "from the tip of my penis to my testicles." The personnel officer suggested he might want to reconsider, explaining about the nice big checks the previous two officers had received. The old Master Chief insisted and the personnel representative agreed, provided the measurement was taken by a medical officer.

The medical officer arrived and instructed the Master Chief to "drop em," which he did. The medical officer began to measure from the tip to the rear then exclaimed, "my God, where are your testicles?"

The old Master Chief calmly replied, "... Vietnam."

Ozzie the Rooster

Whitey was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young layers called pullets and eight or ten roosters, whose job was to fertilize the eggs. Whitey kept records and any rooster that didn't perform went into the soup pot and was replaced. That took an awful lot of Whitey's time so Whitey got a set of tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone so Whitey could tell from a distance which rooster was performing. Now he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report simply by listening to the bells.

Whitey's favorite rooster was old Ozzie, being from a very fine specimen he was, too. But, on this particular morning, Whitey noticed old Ozzie's bell hadn't rung at all! Whitey went to investigate. The other roosters were chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing. The pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. BUT, to Whitey's amazement, Ozzie had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one. Whitey was so proud of Ozzie, he entered him in the county fair... and... Ozzie became an overnight sensation among the judges.

The result...

The judges not only awarded Ozzie the "No Bell Piece Prize" but they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well. Clearly Ozzie was a Democrat for who else could figure out how to win two of the most politically biased awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the populous and screwing them.

Sex of The Fly

A woman walked into her kitchen and found her husband with a flyswater stalking the kitchen.

"What are you doing?", she asked.

"killing flies," he responded.

"Any luck," she asked.

"Yes," he said. "I have killed three males and two females."

"How do you tell the sex of a fly?" inquired the wife.

He said, "three were on a beer can and two were on the phone."

A new contibutor reports that the Navy has instituted a new program. The contributor has not yet been assigned a pen name. Since her husband is a Naval Officer, the Chief is in negotiation with Senior Enlisted Navy folks to designate her as Honorary Master Chief Petty Officer (MCPO). CORRECTION - Commander Dave used his wife's computer and, consequently, her e-mail address. The plan was in fact provided by his son-in-law, a real MCPO.

US NAVY REDUCTION PLAN

As a result of Senate proposed force reductions and budget cuts the Department of the Navy has developed a program to reduce the number of active duty personnel. This program is under test phase and will be effective 1 January 2005. Under this new program, older sailors will be asked to go on early retirement, thus permitting the retention of the younger sailors who represent the future. Therefore, this program will phase out older sailors by the end of the current fiscal year. This initial phase of the program will be known as SLAP (Sailors Late-Aged Program).

Sailors who are SLAPPED will be given the opportunity to look for jobs outside the Navy. SLAPPED sailors can request a review of their personnel records before actual retirement takes place.

This phase of the program is called SCREW (Survey of Capabilities of Retired Early Workers). All sailors who have been SLAPPED or SCREWED, may file an appeal with their chain of command with final authority at the Major Command level. This is called SHAFT (Study by Higher Authority Following Termination). Under the terms of the new policy, a sailor may be SLAPPED once, SCREWED twice, but may be SHAFTED as many times as the Navy deems appropriate.

If a sailor follows the above procedures, he/she will be entitled to get HERPES (Half Earnings for Retired Personnel's Early Severance) or CLAP (Combined Lump-sum Assistance Payment), unless he/she already has AIDS (Additional Income From Dependents or Spouse). As HERPES and CLAP are considered benefit plans, any sailor who has received HERPES or CLAP will no longer be SLAPPED or SCREWED by the Navy.

The Navy wishes to assure the younger Sailors who remain on board, that the Navy will continue its policy of training sailors through our Special High Intensity Training (SHIT). The Navy takes pride in the amount of SHIT our sailors receive. We have given our sailors more SHIT than any other service. If any sailor feels they do not receive enough SHIT at their current base, see your immediate supervisor.

OUR SUPERVISOR IS SPECIALLY TRAINED TO MAKE SURE YOU RECEIVE ALL THE SHIT YOU CAN STAND.

Commander Dave posited this test and it must be considered with a great deal of thought and intellectual objectivity. Scroll down slowly and contemplate all ramifications of your choice:

This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. Please don't answer it without giving it some serious thought. By giving an honest answer you will be able to test where you stand morally. The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation, where you will have to make a decision one way or the other.

Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous. Please scroll down slowly and consider each line - this is important for the test to work accurately.

You're in Florida...In Miami, to be exact... There is great chaos going on around you, caused by a hurricane and severe floods. There are huge masses of water all about you. You are a news photographer and you are in the middle of this great disaster. The situation is nearly hopeless.

You're trying to shoot impressive photos, photos that capture the emotion and tragedy of the events. Houses and people are floating around you, disappearing into the water! Nature is showing all her destroying power, ripping everything asunder.

Suddenly you see a woman in the water. She is fighting for her life, trying not to be taken away by the masses of water and mud. You move closer. Somehow the woman looks familiar. Suddenly you know who it is - it's Hillary Clinton..!!

At the moment you recognize who she is, you also notice that the raging waters are about to take her away, forever. You realize you have two options. You can save her or you can take the best photo of your life. You can save the life of Hillary Clinton, or you can shoot a Pulitzer prize winning photo, a unique photo displaying the actual moment of death of one of the world's
most powerful women.

And here's the question (please give an honest answer):

Would you select color film, or rather go with the simplicity of classic black and white?

Old Sarge has suggested to the Commander that we pluck her from the water, claim we were under enemy fire and ask Bill to forgive us.

THE ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER

OLD VERSION: The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks he's a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold. MORAL OF THE STORY: Be responsible for yourself!

MODERN VERSION: The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks he's a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while others are cold and starving. CBS, NBC, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so? Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper, and everybody cries when they sing, "It's Not Easy Being Green."

Jesse Jackson stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the group singing, "We shall overcome." Jesse then has the group kneel down to pray to God for the grasshopper's sake. Tom Daschle & John Kerry exclaim in an interview with Peter Jennings that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his "fair share." Finally, the EEOC drafts the "Economic Equity and Anti-Grasshopper Act," retroactive to the beginning of the summer. The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the government. Hillary gets her old law firm to represent the grasshopper in a defamation suit against the ant, and the case is tried before a panel of federal judges that Bill appointed from a list of single-parent welfare recipients. The ant loses the case.

The story ends as we see the grasshopper finishing up the last bits of the ant's food while the government house he is in, which just happens to be the ant's old house, crumbles around him because he doesn't maintain it. The ant has disappeared in the snow. The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the once peaceful neighborhood. MORAL OF THE STORY: Don't vote for the Poodle.

In keeping with what we have seen in the so called "main stream press", this has particular application:

The Pope was visiting Washington, DC, and President Bush took him out for an afternoon on the Potomac, sailing on the Presidential Yacht, the Sequoia.

They're enjoying the sights when, all of a sudden, the Popes hat (zucchetto) blows off his head & out into the water.
Secret Service guys start to launch a boat, but President Bush waves them off, saying, "Wait I'll take care of this. Don't worry." Bush then steps off the Yacht onto the surface of the water and walks out to the Holy Fathers little hat, bends over, picks it up, then walks back to the Yacht and climbs aboard. He hands the hat to the Pope amid stunned silence.

The next morning the Headlines in the New York Times, Indianapolis Star,Boston Globe, Miami Herald, Buffalo News, San Francisco Chronicle, Los Angeles Times, and all other Major Newspapers proclaim:

"President Bush Can't Swim"

You Gotta love the Marines:

Marines Answer to Gun Control

Marine Corp's General Reinwald was interviewed on the radio the other day and you have to read his reply to the lady who Interviewed him concerning guns and children. Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you gotta love this!!!!

This is one of the best comeback lines of all time. It is a portion of National Public Radio (NPR) interview between a female broadcaster and US Marine Corps General Reinwald who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military installation.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER: So, General Reinwald, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?

GENERAL REINWALD: We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?

GENERAL REINWALD: I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?

GENERAL REINWALD: I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER: But you're equipping them to become violent killers.

GENERAL REINWALD: Well, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you?

The radio went silent and the interview ended.
