Joke
The combat-hardened general was reviewing an elite squadron of paratroopers. “How do you like jumping?” he asked one soldier gruffly.
“I love it, sir,” was the reply.
“And you?” asked the general of the next guy in line. “It’s the most exhilarating thing I’ve ever done, sir.”
And so on down the line, until one solder replied, “I hate it, sir.”
“Then why do you jump?” asked the startled officer. “Because I like being around the kind of men who want to.”
