An arrogant politician boarded a plane and grabbed a seat beside BadBobby, who was traveling east to straighten out Washington D.C.
Mid-flight, the politician decided to play a game with the ol' feller and prove he’s intellectually superior, so he turns to BB and says: “Hey, do you want to play a little game with me?” BadBobby looks at him and says: “Depends. What type of game?”
The politician goes on to explain the game: “Taking turns, we’ll ask each other one question at a time. If the other knows the answer, the asker gives him one dollar, and if he doesn’t, he gives one dollar to the asker. Want to play?” The politician grins, figuring his general knowledge is vastly superior.
To his dismay, the BB refuses! Determined to make him agree, the professor raises the stakes for him.
“If I lose, I ‘ll give you two dollars instead of one!”
“No.”
“Five dollars!”
“No.”
“Ten dollars!”
“I told you, no.”
Desperate, the politician makes one final offer: “If I lose, I’ll give you a hundred dollars, and if you lose you’ll only give me one!” The politician pleads. BadBobby ponders this, then sighs. “Only if I get to start”, and the politician immediately agrees. “Ask away”, the politician says, confident he’ll never lose.
So, BB asks: “What has five heads, forty feet, and lives inside of a bucket?”
The politician turns the riddle over in his head, trying to find anything that fits the description. After an hour of intense concentration, the politician gives up. Grumbling, he pulls out his wallet and gives BB $100. He wastes no time and asks him: “So what has five heads, forty feet, and lives inside of a bucket?”
BadBobby smiles, shrugs and says: “I’ve got no idea. Here’s your dollar."

Boy that badnobby was sure a handsome young dude now wasn't he. I can see why Mama grabed him up right away and sent those Marines a packing.
To BB and Slat:
Now now boys, stop your fighting. Everyone knows that the sailors and marines should be fighting on the same side. Just like the dems and repubs are on the same side. OOPS, bad example. Ah, just like the conservatives and liberals are....damn, another bad example. Oh hell never mind. Go ahead and duke it out. It's good exercise. But know that I and a few others are keeping score.

Squids competing with Marines
Surely you jest.
Though, admittedly, we couldn't do without 'em.
Most importantly, I must add, as corpsmen

Man I'm jealous. At our age you still have hormones? I lost mine some time ago. Oh well we all know that nothing good or bad lasts forever. It's part of the "golden years". Who ever coined the term golden years inferring old age was a nut. They are anything but golden; maybe lead as in get the lead out.
