"Making Love in a Canoe"

 

Working in the Chief’s Mess as a food service attendant, one of my tasks was to make coffee. When the Chief Boatswain tasted it he said…

 

"Ahh, it’s like making love in a canoe."

 

I asked if it was that good, his smile faded and he looked me dead in the eye as he said…

 

“No, it's fucking close to water!”

 

… as he poured it out and walked out of the Mess.
