Sis and her cousin Faye Quinn were in downtown Union shopping and they decided to drop in Shady’s Bar and Grill for a glass of communion juice. They were sitting at the bar relaxing when this nice looking guy in a nice uniform walked up to Sis and asked her to dance. Sis thinks, well, to be patriotic and to be a good sport, why not dance with the serviceman. Things were going real good as they waltzed across the floor and Sis asked the gentleman, “What branch of the service are you in”? The man answered, “I am a Greyhound bus driver.”
