The Pentagon recently found it had too many Generals and offered an early retirement bonus. They promised any General who retired immediately his full annual benefits plus $10 000 for every inch measured in a straight line between any two points on the General's body, with the General getting to select any pair of points he wished.
The first General was from the Air Force. He asked the Pension Clerk to measure from the top of his head to the tip of his toes. Six feet. He walked out with a cheque for $720 000.
The second man, an Army General, asked the Pension Clerk to measure from the tip of his up-stretched hands to his toes. Eight feet. He walked out with a cheque for $960 000.
The third General was a grizzled old Marine from Texas. He told the Pension Clerk "Son, I want you to measure from the tip of my penis all the way to my testicles."
The Pension Clerk suggested that perhaps the Marine General might like to reconsider, pointing out the nice cheques the previous two Generals had received. The Marine General insisted "No Sir, you heard right. Go ahead and measure."
The Pension Clerk said that would be ok, but that he'd better get a Medical Officer to do the measuring.
The Medical Officer attended and asked the General to 'drop em'. He did. The Medical Officer placed the tape on the tip of the Generals penis and began to work back.
"My God," he said, "where are your testicles?"
"Vietnam," the General replied.
........chorkel, chorkel, yuk, yuk.......don't blame me, not my joke!
