"Negative, ma'am, just serious by nature."
The young lady looked at his awards and decorations and said, "It looks like you have seen a lot of action."
"Yes ma'am, a lot of action."
Trying to start up a conversation, the young lady said, "You know, you should lighten up a little. Relax and enjoy yourself." The sergeant major just stared at her in his serious manner. Finally the young lady said, "You know, I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but when is the last time you had sex?"
"1955," he replied.
"Well, there you are, No wonder you're so serious. You really need to chill out! I mean, no sex since 1955!" She took his hand and led him to a private room where she proceeded to 'relax' him several times.
Afterwards, she leaned against his chest and said, "Wow you sure didn't forget much since 1955."
The sergeant major said in a serious voice, "I hope not; it's only 2130 now."
