Gulls gotcher tongue??
Hope we will see you again before you take off! Are you gonna get a little leave after you get back there? You haven't even seen your new house--at least since it's been yours, have you?
..you dress funny..........
Do I want to buy a burka? I don't want no stinkin' burka! :) I thank God for the men and women in our military and I work hard every day to help the cause.
Thanks for helping to remind us of why we are here, Lady! Beautiful graphic!
You checkin' out my buns?
That's great.
We finally are warming up here in NY.
I would not come near you or your Burka Buns.
Leave starts on the 7th, until the 18th.
I love the math: 5,000 troops in one airport built for only 300.....

The Joke
LOSS OF AN ICON
It is with the saddest heart that I must pass on the following news. Please join me in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community.
The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71.
Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies and Captain Crunch. The grave site was piled high with flours.
Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and lovingly described Doughboy as a man who never knew how much he was kneaded. Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with turnovers.
He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Despite being a little flaky at times, he still, as a crusty old man, was considered a roll model for millions.
Doughboy is survived by his wife, Play Dough; two children John Dough and Jane Dough; plus one in the oven. He is also survived by his elderly father Pop Tart.
The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.
