    Two yank draftees, WWI

    Pinned down by the Germans, two Iowa farmboys, drafted into the war, hear a wailing noise coming from behind them. Peeking over the trenches, Willy takes a look and comes down slack jawed.
    "What is it?" Johnny asks.
    "Don't know" replies Willy, "you look for yourself".

    "What the... they're too ugly to be women, but they're wearing skirts!"

    "Must be that Middlesex regiment they talked about."

    Okay, so it was a groaner. You can smack me later.
    I wish I believed in reincarnation. Where's Charles Martel when you need him?

    I've found that most relationships work best when no one wears pants.

    If they'd been in a bar with a couple Chicago boys with a few pints in them, the kilties mighta been asked for a date.
