LJ - stay away

The teacher gave her fifth grade class an assignment: Have their parents
tell them a story with a moral at the end of it.

The next day the kids came back and one by one began to tell their
stories.

"Johnny, do you have a story to share?"

"Yes ma'am, my daddy told a story about my Aunt Karen. Aunt Karen was a
pilot in Desert Storm and her plane got hit. She had to bail out over
enemy territory and all she had was a small flask of whiskey, a pistol and
a survival knife."

She drank the whiskey on the way down to calm herself and then her
parachute landed right in the middle of twenty members of the enemy
troops. She shot fifteen of them with the gun until she ran out of
bullets, killed four more with the knife until the blade broke, and then
she killed the last Iraqi with her bare hands."

"Good heavens," said the horrified teacher, "what kind of moral did your
daddy tell you from that horrible story?"

"Stay away from Aunt Karen when she's been drinking!"
