OK, here are my 2 cents.

After a long weekend of studied and careful consideration of the two candidates I have come to the following decision: It seems I really like peanut butter. Honestly, I just love the flavor, the texture and everything about it.

On a related note, it seems that sharks do not like peanut butter at all. Apparently, the tasty bread spread that we all know and love causes their little shark tongues to stick to the roof of their mouth cutting off the flow of water across their gills. According to the latest CNN/USA Today poll, most sharks prefer not to take the chance.

Allan,

Sorry about misspelling your name last time. Mea culpa…

The Russian sub moniker is correct and I have used it for years since it is unlikely that anyone has used that Username before.

I don’t have the Ranger Handbook but I still have the Landmark Thucydides around here somewhere in a box. Hated Clauswitz at first but came to appreciate the way it made me think.

I am actually Navy myself, I just got a invite to go to CSC with the Marines and couldn’t pass it up. Great folks one and all. I also got deployed with an Army unit as an Individual Augmentee(Army Regulation 20-1 would have been germane to my duties.) Hey, somebody has to do it.

WRT the mystique about Marines in that part of the world, you are right. A buddy of mine was in 2nd/75th BN at the time of the Panama operation and told me about the PDF trying to go head to head with them but when the Marines rolled in heavy with their sleeves rolled the opposite direction things got very quiet very quickly. I’m sure you have heard some of the local urban legends told in that AO.

I’ll be heading back to SD here next spring and looking forward to some nice weather and some good fishing.

Take care.

Allen,

It would be interesting to sit down and have a beer some time with you. You do seem better versed on a lot of the subjects than most people I chat with.

Interestingly enough, I have a copy of the SWM sitting on my desk right now. I got it while a student at the USMC Command and Staff College. Although I find some of the pictures of the proper way to pack your mule amusing, most of the info is spot on and still applicable today. Some of it has been of use and used in the past few years.

I spent a few years in South and Central Am. but tended to be a bit further south in Costa Rica, Panama, Columbia, Peru and even Ecuador. I almost got an all expense paid trip to Honduras but never to Guat and I’m OK with that…

Hey, if your friend speaks Pashtun that is great but if he can speak Pashtu-Dharri that is even better. It is a royal pain finding someone to translate that stuff.

Be well.

Hey, what’s this thing I hear about a housing bubble anyway….
