LST Memorial Web Site My dad was a Chief Quarter Master on LST 1110.
As a 9 year old boy I was lucky enough to have been on
2 inter Hawaiian Island week long cruises.
A man is sitting in a plane which is about to
takeoff when another man with a dog occupies the empty seats alongside.
The dog is sat in the middle, and the first man is looking quizzically
at the dog when the second man explains that they work for the airline.
The airline security rep. he said "Don't mind Rover,
he is a sniffer dog, the best there is, I'll show you once we get airborne
and I set him to work."
The plane takes off and levels out when the
handler says to the first man, "Watch this." He
tells the dog "Rover, search." The dog jumps down, walks along
the aisle and sits next to a woman for a few seconds. It then returns to
its seat and puts one paw on the handler's arm.
He says "Good boy." He turns to the first man and says, "That woman
is in possession of marijuana, so I'm making a note of this, and the seat
number, for the police who will apprehend her on arrival."
"Fantastic!" replies the first man.
Once again he sends the dog to search the aisles. The dog sniffs about,
sits down beside a man for a few seconds, returns to its seat and places
both paws on the handler's arm. The airline rep
says, "That man is carrying cocaine, so again, I'm making a note of
this, and the seat number."
"I like it!" says the first man.
Once again he sends the dog to search the aisles.
Rover goes up and down the plane aisle and
after a while sits down next to someone, and then comes racing back
and jumps up onto the seat and craps all over the seat n both men.
The first man is surprised and disgusted by this,
and asks "What the bloody hell is going on?"
The handler, now quite obviously nervous replies
"He just found a bomb!
"Ride
in a Huey"

symbols called "emoticons",where :) means a smile and
:( is a frown. Sometimes these are represented by :-) and a :-( respectively.
Well, how about some "assicons"?
