<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT size=4>You gotta love a Marine with a great sense
of humor.<BR><BR> A Marine was deployed to Afghanistan. While he
was<BR> there he received a letter from his girl friend.
In<BR> the letter she explained that she had slept with two<BR> guys
while he had been gone and she wanted to break<BR> up with him. AND,
she wanted pictures of herself back.<BR><BR> So the Marine did
what any squared-away Marine<BR> would do. He went around to his
buddies and<BR> collected all the unwanted photos of women he
could<BR> find.<BR><BR> He then mailed about 25 pictures of
women (with<BR> clothes and without) to his girlfriend with
the<BR> following note:<BR></FONT><BR> "I don't remember which
one you are. Please remove<BR> your picture and send the rest
back."<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
