keener Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Marine Corps General Reinwald was interviewed on the radio the other day concerning guns and children. Regardless of how you feel about gun laws, you gotta love this!!! One of the best comeback lines of all time. It is a portion of National Public Radio (NPR) interview between a female broadcaster and US Marine Corps General Reinwald who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visit to his military installation.FEMALE INTERVIEWER So, General Reinwald, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base? GENERAL REINWALD We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting. FEMALE INTERVIEWER Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it? GENERAL REINWALD I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range. FEMALE INTERVIEWER Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children? GENERAL REINWALD I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm. FEMALE INTERVIEWER But you're equipping them to become violent killers. GENERAL REINWALD Well, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you? The radio went silent and the interview ended. The next best one I've heard was a 'friend of a friend' who went up to a girl in a club and just said the good old 'do you want to dance?'. She said 'no' so he came back with 'I'm sorry, you must have miss heard me, I said you look fat in that skirt' and walked off. Probably not true but how many times have we all wished we could think that quick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not true but how many times have we all wished we could think that quick? The actual line is "I said you look fat in those pants". It rhymes a little better.

Havard Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Oh dear god, reposted again!? I think a seach for the word "prostitute" would have unearthed the original threads. On the other hand, Groundhog Day is one of my favourite films..... H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keener Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 My bad for the re-post but in the 6 months I've been a member I hadn't seen it and there's sooooo many threads to go through......... Anyway, who'd have thought about putting 'prostitute' into the search funtion of a car forum!!! Will try harder to be original next time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, who'd have thought about putting 'prostitute' into the search funtion of a car forum!!! Will try harder to be original next time! When I do a search I always look for the rarest word in the acticle. "Reinwald" would have unearthed 4 other threads.... Unlucky mate!! Don't worry, I have reposted my own joke before..... H.

keener Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 I have reposted my own joke before Now that's just genius - I'm sure I'll do that too! I normally have to tell the Mrs them twice or more before she gets them I do this too, but more often than not she got it the first time and just wasn't impressed so I just re-tell them to keep myself entertained now!
