[Dixielandjazz] Marines

I'm reminded of a story about a Navy ensign and a Marine who happened to be
using two adjacent urinals during a break in a local theatre production.
They stood doing their business in an awkward silence, neither acknowledging
the other.

The Marine finished first and left to wait for his date in the lobby.  The
ensign finished, washed his hands, and went to the lobby to wait for *his*
date.  Unable to resist the temptation, the ensign walked up to the Marine
and said, "In the Navy, they teach us to wash our hands after using the
restroom."

The Marine replied, "In the Marine Corps, they teach us not to pee on our
hands."

I will say one thing. Some of these Marines are very, very touchy!
