What's In That Plain, Brown Envelope?

Forum Health Inspector
MY SON-IN-LAW John, a Marine lieutenant, found himself alone in an elevator at the Marine headquarters building in Okinawa, Japan, with a colonel. John, on an errand to the medical-records office, nervously clutched a plain, brown paper envelope under his arm. The colonel pushed the button for the top floor and said, "Penthouse, lieutenant?"

"Oh, no, sir," John stammered. "Nothing like that -- just my dental records."
