A Marine stationed in Afghanistan recently received a "Dear John" Letter
from his girlfriend back home. It read as follows:
Dear Ricky,
I can no longer continue our relationship. The distance between us is
just too great. I must admit that I have cheated on you twice
since you've been gone, and it's not fair to either of us.
I'm sorry. Please return the picture of me that I sent to you.
Love, Becky
The Marine, with hurt feelings, asked his fellow Marines for any
snapshots
they could spare of their girlfriends, sisters, ex-girlfriends, aunts,
cousins etc.& gt;
In addition to the picture of Becky, Ricky included all the other
pictures
of the pretty gals he had collected from his buddies. There were 57
photos
in that envelope along with this
note:
Dear Becky,
I'm so sorry, but I can't quite remember who the
f*** you are.
Please take your picture from the pile, and send the
rest back to me.
Take Care, Ricky

The boss of a big company needed to call one of his employees about an
urgent problem with one of the main computers, he dialed the employee's
home phone number and was greeted with a child's whisper.
"Hello."
"Is your daddy home?" he asked.
"Yes," whispered the small voice.
"May I talk with him?" The child whispered, "No."
Surprised, and wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, "Is your
Mommy there?"
"Yes."
"May I talk with her?"
Again the small voice whispered, "No."
Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss
asked,
"Is anybody else there?"
"Yes," whispered the child, "a policeman."
Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee's home, the boss
asked,
"May I speak with the policeman?"
"No, he's busy", whispered the child.
"Busy doing what?"
"Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman," came the whispered
answer.
Growing concerned and even worried as he heard what sounded like a
Helicopter through the earpiece on the phone the boss asked,
"What is that noise?"
"A hello-copper" answered the whispering voice.
"What is going on there?" asked the boss, now truly alarmed.
In an awed whispering voice the child answered, "The search team just
landed the hello-copper."
Alarmed, concerned, and even more then just a little frustrated the
boss
asked,
"What are they searching for?"
Still whispering, the young voice replied along with a muffled giggle:
"ME."
