CHEERING UP A MARINE

(A PRECISION GUIDED HUMOR ASSIGNMENT)

Chris of FlashBang has joined the Marines, so I'm giving him ammo to get him through boot camp:

First, something I just now made up:

Q: How many Marines does it take to change a light bulb?
A: OO-RAH!!

Next, something I stole from Rick of Me & My MAC:

A Marine walks into a bar and takes a seat next to a very attractive woman. He gives her a quick glance then casually looks at his watch for a moment.

The woman notices this and asks, "Is your date running late?"

"No," he replies, "I just got this state-of-the-art watch, and I was just testing it."

The intrigued woman says, "A state-of-the-art watch? What's so special about it?"

The Marine explains, "It uses alpha waves to talk to me telepathically."

The lady says, "What's it telling you now?"

"Well, it says you're not wearing any panties...."

"The woman giggles and replies, "Well it must be broken because I am wearing panties!"

The Marine smirks, taps his watch and says, "Damn thing's an hour fast."

And I close with another something I made up:

Q: How many terrorists does it take to change a light bulb?
A: After the Marines get through with them, the only thing they'll change is into corpses.

Give 'em hell, Chris.

Semper Fi.

Chris

just remember while your in boot sooner or later you will make a mistake and your DI will be on you like white on rice dont try to talk your way out of it just say "no excuse sir" and take your lumps because you will see what they do to the one who cant learn that simple fact of life. Semper Fi from a squid who actually got alone with Jar heads (they were air wing marines so they walked up right and knew how to use a fork.)

Just think how good that first beer on liberty will taste.

thanks for your service

Chris,

good work in getting into the toughest military force America has. Just remember, once you've made it through Marine's basic training, you can get through anything. I'll be headed for BC in May, and I personally can't wait for the motivation there, OOH-RAH!!. Semper Fi
