    The cure for insomnia is staying awake.

    The cure for being on Baptist Board forum too much is just go the BB Facebook page.

    Sapper - I cant stop laughing at what you said-
    Think of it - Sapper trying say something funny!!!!!


    In fact once, I was in the Army Brig for a while - and lo and behold - Sapper appears.
    for some unknown reason they put an Engineer with a Quartermaster!
    ( I thought that was against our union rules)

    Anyways, Sapper wanted to know why someone would call out a number - and everyone would start laughing. I explained we had told those same jokes over and over that we finally just assigned them all numbers. So I told Sapper that he should try. - just yell out any number between 1 and 125. So he yells out "99" - not one person laughed - So he tried again - "26" Nothing - So I said Try number 21 - that is one of the funniest jokes - so he yelled out "21" the other inmates just started booing. Sapper just couldn't understand what happend. I told him - "well, some people can tell jokes and some just cant.

    The real reason that story is funny is because there's no way a sapper would be in the brig alone. He'd have two or three battle buddies with him.

    Sapper's weekend recitation:

    If you drink, don't drive.
    If you drive, don't drink.
    If you get in a fight, win.
    If you go to jail, bring a battle buddy.
