Humor: 1955

[Guest guest]

A crusty old Army Airborne Sergeant Major found himself unlucky enough

to draw his last assignment before retirement in an ROTC Detachment at a

liberal arts college. One night, he was making his " presence known " at

a gala event where there was no shortage of extremely young, idealistic

female and male cadets in attendance. After a bit, one of the young

ladies approached the Sergeant Major for conversation.

 

She said, " Excuse me, Sergeant Major, but you seem to be a very serious

man. Is something bothering you? "

 

" Negative, ma'am, " the Sergeant Major said, " just serious by nature. "

 

The young lady looked at his awards and decorations and said, " It looks

like you have seen a lot of action. "

 

The Sergeant Major replied, " Affirmative, ma'am, a lot of action. "

 

The young lady, tiring of trying to start up a conversation, said, " You

know, you should lighten up a little. Relax and enjoy yourself. "

 

The Sergeant Major just stared at her in his serious manner.

 

Finally the young lady said, " You know, I hope you don't take this the

wrong way, but when is the last time you had sex? "

 

The Sergeant Major looked at her and replied, " 1955. "

 

She said, " Well, there you are. You really need to chill out and quit

taking everything so seriously! I mean, no sex since 1955! Isn't that a

little extreme? "

 

The Sergeant Major, glancing at his watch, said in his matter-of-fact

voice, " I don't think so .. it's only 2130 now. " ;-)
