During WWII, a private and a sergeant were utilizing the latrine* at the same time when the sergeant got up and a $1 bill fell out of his pocket into the hole.

He proceeded to pull out a $20 bill and threw it down into the latrine as well.

The private asked, "Why the hell did you do that for?"

The sergeant replied, "You don't think I'm going to send you down there for just a dollar, do you?"




* Field latrines at that time were the equivalent of a multi-seater outhouse with very little privacy.

Oops, didn't read the question. Cell phone, no. Sunglasses, yes.

I was an actuary in another life. Of course they were cheap.

I will neither confirm nor deny that any embarrassing activities took place while I have been in the vicinity of bodily waste disposal receptacles.

Then it's not embarrassing . . . unless it ends up clogging the toilet and making a large brown mess on the floor and/or your shoes.
