During a practical exercise at a military police base, the instructor was giving the class instruction in unarmed self- defense.

The student replied, "BIG ones. "

To raise money for the karate school a monk was selling pizza.

A man walked in and said, "Make me one with everything. "

So the monk said that would be $15. The man handed the monk a twenty dollar bill.

After a minute he asked where his change was, to which the monk replied,

"Change must come from within. "
