I was talking to a friend of mine who was in the military for a long time and pretty high up.  I asked him why we still had so many troops in Europe.  He told me, “The troops in Europe are not there to tamp down the Russians.  They are there to tamp down the Germans.”

Overheard getting off the elevator.

“I was an anthropology major but I had to take an architecture course and we worked on an old building where they excavated these ancient dildos and discovered that the place had been a whorehouse centuries before.”

Overheard at a prominent Houston art museum.

“Hand grenades are overrated.”

Some dude in a work uniform in the elevator who fortunately got off almost immediately.  Red has no idea what the context of that statement could possibly be.
