I liked the thread started by terpsichore.. so here is a little variation!

What funny things has your SO said while in the Middle East?

So far, I would say the comment that made me laugh most was when he said the AC, showers, and even food are better than they were in NJ. Slighty ironic no?

OH! And he is deathly afraid of snakes. And they were warned about sitting down to poo because people have been bitten by snakes waiting in the bottom!!! (Not funny to be bitten by poisonous snakes, but funny to think of DB trying to pop a squat like that... he prefers to take his time if you know what i mean)

And during General Petraeus' visit to my brother's chow hall, he called out "THE FOOD SUCKS HERE" :lol

apparently they were out on patrol one night, using their equipment to track a jackrabbit, and even asked permission to shoot it...but they were denied...:lol

well appearently.
DH was amazed at the fact that they give out free water. and"there are NO clouds in the sky!its WILD!" it just sounds funny
and then...
"hun there was this iraqi near base that everytime you walk past him he would yell at us HEY HOMEI HEY HOMIE HEY SHORTIE SHOW ME SOME LUV!" :lol

"I thought I saw a raincloud the other day!"

"I just ran into a humvee" "Were you driving?" "No, I was walking, I didn't see it"

"The cookies here suck, can you send me some of my favorite?" *3 weeks later they get there all crumbs* "Those crumbs were the best crumbs I've ever eaten, and I at 'em all"

"I screamed like a girl" (was telling me about how he was walking to the potty in the middle of the night and his neighbor "snuck" up behind him)
