"This week, the
United States Military Academy announced it had discovered an al Qaeda
employment contract, detailing the benefits of joining the group. Membership
does have its privileges. Married males receive 6500 rupees and a week's
vacation for every three weeks work. Wow, it sounds like there's no downside!
Oh, wait, the retirement plan." --Jon Stewart
"Signing up for the
Army just got a little bit easier. Now, I know what you're thinking, 'I'm too
lazy and emotionally fragile for boot camp, plus I'm a felon with a third-grade
education. And I'm gay.' Well, good news, in today's Army, it doesn't matter.
Except the gay part. According to the Wall Street Journal, the military is
adopting a kinder and gentler approach to basic training, in order to improve
diminishing recruitment numbers. Among the changes: more sleep and personal
time, less running, and best of all, overweight recruits don't have to skip
dessert. Hey, kids, boot camp is now easier than fat camp." --Jon Stewart
