An imaginary enemy
During a simulated attack, the troops have to defend themselves against an imaginary enemy, as the sergeant calls it.
Bawling out orders, he notices that one recruit shows little response.
“You there,” the sergeant shouts, “the imaginary enemy is advancing, and you are caught in the crossfire. Action!”
The recruit takes ten steps to one side.
“What are you doing, man?” yells the sergeant, purple with fury.
“I’m taking shelter behind an imaginary hill,” answers the recruit calmly.
Husband is amazed!
One night, a wife found her husband standing next to their baby’s crib. She watched him quietly.
As he stood looking down at the sleeping infant, she saw on his face a mixture of emotions: disbelief, doubt, delight, amazement, enchantment, even skepticism.
Touched by this unusual display and the deep emotions it aroused, with eyes glistening, she slipped her arm around her husband and asked, “What happened?”
“It’s amazing!” he replied. “I just can’t figure how anybody can make a crib like that for only $67.50!”
