Czech and Then Some feat. David Slovak at the Ennis Sokol on May 30. |

The Department of the Navy is now assigning females to quarters in a separate private "OFF LIMITS" area on all aircraft carriers.
While addressing all personnel at Pearl Harbor, CINCPAC advised, "Female sleeping quarters will be out-of-bounds for all males.
Anyone caught breaking this rule will be fined $50 the first time." And the Admiral continued, "Anyone caught breaking this rule the second time will be fined $150. Being caught a third time will cost you a fine of $500. Are there any questions?"
At this point, a US Marine stood up in the crowd and inquired: "How much for a season pass?"
