A condemned spy was being led out at dawn to the wall against which he was to be shot at sunrise. It was raining with ferocious intensity. On either side of him was a line of soldiers and to one of them the condemned spy said bitterly, “What beasts you all are to march me out to be shot in a rain like this.”
And the soldier replied with equal bitterness, “What are you complaining about? We’ve got to march back.”

A medical student is taking a test, and one of the questions is, “Name the three best advantages of mother’s milk.”

A priest, a doctor, and an engineer are out playing a round of golf. Partway through their game, they realize that the group in front is taking forever to move through the course. Frustrated, they ask the groundskeeper what’s going on. The groundskeeper, visibly emotional, says:
“Well, I’m afraid the reason that group is a bit slow is that they are, in fact, a trio of blind firefighters. You see, last month they saved the clubhouse from a blaze and lost their vision in the accident. To show our thanks, we let them play for free whenever they’d like.”
The priest replies: “My, that’s terrible! I’ll be sure to say a prayer for them.”
“What a tragedy!” says the Doctor, “I’ll see if I can help them with their treatment.”
After a moment of quiet, the Engineer finally speaks:
“Well for goodness sake, why can’t they just play at night?”
