BAGHDAD

[xp38]

I take it you have never been to London. Those buses spew huge. I almost immediately got sick. Apparently its a common reaction for visitors not used to the pristine air of old London town. Tip...don't wear white shirts. Kind of put a damper on things for a few days. You do adjust eventually. I also heard a number of US tourists die every year from just looking the wrong way when crossing the roads. Those buses move fast at certain points believe it or not.

"last heard of him in Syria"

A perfect epitaph for such a perfect idiot.

Sad to say, but the gene pool may be better off without their further contributions. If you know what I'm saying.

[chiller]

Yes...I'm still cracking up on that one. This is REALLY GOOD COMEDY!

[Mike Darancette]

GEE, I THINK SADDAM WOULD LIKE THAT AS A MOMENTO...

Tear Drop can be a gang tattoo meaning a fellow member died.

"There were lots of group squabbles," said Benjamin Joffe-Walt, 23, an American paramedic. "Very few people knew each other...it was difficult to organize it. There were lots of different ideas..."

Ken O'Keefe, their informal leader and a former American Marine, burned his U.S. passport and designed himself new travel documents proclaiming him a "Citizen of the World." As a result, he was detained in three countries.

They are turning out to be useless idiots.

Squabbling peace activists

Those first three words are simply precious!

Let's give them special "laser pointers" to mark the sites we're supposed to avoid...

Reminds me of a story about an agent team dropped into North Vietnam during the war. They were almost immediately captured and turned by the North Vietnamese.

SOG knew that they were in the hands of North Vietnamese intelligence, but couldn't of course, let on that they knew it.

The compromised team was contacted and told that they would be resupplied in the field by an F-4 Phantom. As cover, they were told, the supply canisters that would be dropped on the team's location would be disguised as 500lb bombs.

I'll bet you've already guessed how *that* story ended.

Isn't the TEAR DROP a prison tattoo

Yep - dunno about the killing part, but it's a jail thang.

[ErnBatavia]

Has it been confirmed that this dolt was really a Marine? What with all this embellishment going on these days (as in Hackworth's record), I'm wanting some verification.
