A retired
four-star general ran into his
former orderly, also retired, in a
Manhattan bar and spent the rest of
the evening persuading him to come
work for
him as his valet.
“Your duties will be exactly the same as they were
in the
army,”
the general said. “Nothing to it – you’ll catch on again

fast.”

Next morning promptly at eight o’clock, the ex-orderly entered the

ex-general’s
bedroom, pulled open the drapes, gave the general
a gentle shake,
strode around
the other side of the bed, spanked
his employer’s wife on her bottom
and said,
“OK, sweetheart,
it’s back to the village for you.”
