"Dropping the Soap"

 


Many years ago, a Sailor had a belly ache and went to see the Doctor. Just as he showed up he had to wait as the nurse was giving birth to an illegitimate baby. So the quick-thinking Doc put the Sailor under ether, and when he came to, told him he had just had a baby! The poor Seaman was quite surprised, but he shrugged his shoulders and carried the infant off to sea, where they spent many happy years, living as father and son. Finally, when it came the Sailor’s time to die, he called the boy over and confessed…

 

“I’m not really your father, I’m your mother. I’ve never even known your father’s name. But I can tell you this … he must’ve been the slickest soap dropper in the fleet!”
