NEVER ASK A GUNNY  (You will Love This One)

A young Marine officer was in a serious car accident, but the only
visible permanent injury was to both of his ears, which were amputated.
Since he wasn't physically impaired he remained in the Marines and
actually rose to the rank of General. He was, however, very sensitive
about his appearance.

One day the General was interviewing three Marines for his personal
aide.

The first was an aviator, and it was a great interview. At the end of
the interview the General asked him, "Do you notice anything different
about me?" The young officer answered, "Why yes, sir. I couldn't help
but notice that you have no ears." The General got very angry at the
officer's lack of tact and threw him out.

The second interview was with a female Lieutenant, and she was even
better. The General asked her the same question, "Do you notice anything
different about me?" She replied, "Well, sir, you have no ears." The
general threw her out also.

The third interview was with a Marine Gunny. He was articulate, looked
extremely sharp and seemed to know more than the two officers combined
(surprise). The General wanted this guy, and went ahead with the same
question, "Do you notice anything different about me?" To his surprise
the Gunny said, "Yes sir, you wear contact lenses." The General was very
impressed and thought, what an incredibly observant Gunny, and he didn't
mention my ears.

"And how do you know that I wear contacts?", the General asked.

The sharp-witted Gunny replied, "Well, sir, it's pretty hard to wear
glasses with no fucking ears."
