An old woman, a beautiful girl, an army general, and a young soldier are sitting in the same car on a train.

Suddenly, the train goes into a dark tunnel.

There is a rustle of movement, a loud kiss, and a firm slap.

The train returns to the light. The general has a red mark on his cheek.

The old woman thinks, “Good for her. So many young girls today have no principles. That old man kissed her, and she slapped him right across the face.”

The beautiful girl thinks, “How odd, that that general would choose to kiss that old lady instead of me.”

The general thinks, “Well, isn’t that a fine thing. That young pup steals a kiss from a beautiful girl and I get the slap.”

The soldier thinks, “Not a bad day at all! All I had to do was kiss the back of my hand, and I got to slap a general and get away with it!”
