The Nutty Solider
A general noticed one of his soldiers behaving strangely. The soldier would pick up any piece of paper he found, frown and say: Thats not it and put it down again. This went on for some time, until the general arranged to have the soldier examined.
The doctor concluded that the soldier was deranged, and wrote out his discharge from the army.
The soldier picked it up, smiled and said: Thats it.

Yes, a life lesson here. If you look long enough, discarding anything else as irrelevant, you WILL find confirmation of the idea - that you had already agreed on.

Auntie, I mustered out of the Army in 1967 and that joke was floating around then. Here's another:
A soldier started driving his imagionery(sp) jeep around wherever he went. If he was going to chow, he drove his jeep. If he was reporting to his guard station, he drove his jeep. On payday he drove his jeep to the paymaster, got out and received his pay along with orders to report to sick call. He drove his jeep to sick call, got out, locked it and reported to the medics. After a long examination he was told that he was being "Section 8'ed" out of the Army because he was found to be insane. He saluted the Dr., thanked him, about faced and started to walk away. The doc asked "What about your jeep"? The soldier said "You keep it, I don't need it anymore".

Thanks Gang! Something funny to take my mind off the 'un-funny' way America is going to hell.

I look forward to funnies - this is kind of long, but hope you get a kick out of it:
One day little Billy approached Mr. Johnson's house and knocked on the door. After they exchanged a few pleasantries, little Billy asked Mr. Johnson, "Sir, I noticed ya got some milkweed growing in your backyard, mind if go back there and get some milk?" Amused by the request, Mr. Johnson replied, "Son, knock yourself out." knowing full well that he couldn't possibly get milk from milkweed. Sure enough, Billy came back to Mr. Johnson with 2 pails of milk. Little Billy thanked the now shocked and speechless Mr. Johnson and went on his way.
The next day Billy knocked on Mr. Johnson's door again. "Afternoon Mr. Johnson, I noticed ya had some buttercups growing in your backyard, mind if I get some butter?" Curious this time around, Mr. Johnson replied, "Sure son, go right ahead." knowing full well he couldn't possibly get butter from a buttercup. Sure enough, Billy came back with 2 buckets of butter. Again, Billy thanked a now even more shocked and speechless Mr. Johnson and went on his way.
The next day little Billy knocked on Mr. Johnson's door for a third time. Mr. Johnson, very intrigued by little Billy's strange requests eagerly greeted the young man. "How can I help you today son?" said Mr. Johnson. "Well sir, I noticed ya had some pussy willows growing in your backyar-" and before Billy could finish Mr. Johnson interrupted, "Hold on Billy! Let me go get my boots!"
