Beat ya to itA scientist goes on a research expedition deep in the amazon. When he arrives, he is greeted by his guide. While walking through the woods, he notices he can hear drums playing. He asks his guide about them, who simply replies, "when drums stop, no good!" A few days pass and the drumming continues, but the guide keeps saying the same thing, "when drums stop, no good!" After two weeks of constant drumming, the scientist has had enough. He yells at the guide, "what happens when the drums stop?" He replies, "when drums stop, BASS SOLO!"
Beat ya to it(first page, 3/4 down) You worded it better tho!
Did hear about the agnostic, dyslexic , insomniac?
He can't get any sleep because he stays up nights wondering if there is really a dog!

For the military inclined:
3 generals are having a meeting when they run out of coffee. They summon a private to make a fresh pot of coffee and one of the generals changes the subject of their conversation to making love with his spouse declaring that it's about 50/50 work vs. pleasure. Another general pipes in that it's closer to 30/70 and the third insists it's closer to 80/20. At this point the first general turns to the private making their coffee and asks him what percentage of making love is work vs. what percentage is pleasure, and the private says by his reckoning it's all pleasure, because if there was any work involved the generals would have called him to do it!
Another good one.good one, reminded me of this one:
there were two soldiers in the restroom, one marine and guy from the army. the marine started to leave after he finished his business, the man from the army said, "in the army, they teach us to wash our hands!" the marine says, "that's funny, in the marines, they teach us not to pee on our hands."
Another good one.
Reminds me of a story a friend of mine told me, a true store to boot!;
My friends father, (retired navy man) and his older brother, (a Marine) jokingly harassed each other about one branch being better than the other, but one day it got a bit heated and the father said;
"Just look at your paycheck, the part where it says "A Department of the Navy"!
The son replies; "Yeah, The men's department"
