On a Cavalry post in the old west .
The Captain was out training his troops one day and as he was just finishing up, there was this old broken down nag of a horse that wandered across the parade grounds. The Captain say's to the Sergeant, "Sergeant, what's that old plug of a horse doing on this post? "Well", said the Sergeant, "that's a little difficult to say, sir." The Captain replied, "Well Sergeant, you'd better try or get that nag off of this post right now, understand?" The Sergeant said, "well, sir, its like this, there's not to many girls out here and old Bessie here, well, she's all we got, if you know what I mean?" The Captain said, "oh, I see, well, alright, she can stay." Well as it happened, one day the good Captain got the urge and he calls his orderly and says, "Private, prepare the horse!" The private said, "you going somewhere, sir?" No, no, you know what I mean, I want you to prepare the horse." Well, the private was still a little bewildered, and said to the Captain, "you're going for a ride?" "No, no", said the Captain, "you know what I mean private, prepare that nag out behind the barracks and I'll need that ladder in the loft." Well the private did as he was told, and watched in both horror and some fascination as the Captain with a horse's whinny or two finished his job. The Captain came around the corner and said the to private quite proud of himself, "Well private, is that the way you guys do it?" The private said, "well, ummmm... I suppose that works, sir, but we usually just ride her into Auntie Em's and the girls in town.
