WHAT A VIEW!!

this is the view from a fellow's back deck down in Mexico, he calls it the old chief....


Semper Fi

A U.S. Marine squad was marching north of Fallujah when they came upon an Iraqi terrorist who was badly injured and unconscious. On the opposite side of the road was an American Marine in a similar but less serious state. The Marine was conscious and alert and as first aid was given to both men, the squad leader asked the injured Marine what had happened.



The Marine reported, "I was heavily armed and moving north along the highway here, and coming south was a heavily armed insurgent.
We saw each other and both took cover in the ditches along the road. I yelled to him that Saddam Hussein was a miserable, lowlife scum bag who got what he deserved. And he yelled back that Barack Obama is a lying, good-for-nothing, left wing Commie who isn't even an American.



So I said that Osama Bin Laden dresses and acts like a frigid, mean-spirited lesbian! He retaliated by yelling, "Oh yeah? Well, so does Nancy Pelosi!"



"And, there we were, in the middle of the road, shaking hands, when a truck hit us."

Coming outta "retirement"

I got talked into doing a local bbq event recently, and since I have not seriously competed in over 2 years, I figgered I'd land in the middle of the pack somewhere. We pulled in with WAY less gear than the other teams, and knowing the forecast, chose a site that was on high ground. It poured from midnight Friday to well after awards at 4 PM Saturday. Using a primo junior and a Backwoods "Party" we took 3 calls, a great day.

now I got the fever....gonna do Acworth in 2 weeks!
