Lets go get Ben Laden
Well there I was with Ma at the grocery store. We were buyin a salad thingie to go with some shimp we bought for supper.
I was wearing a wind breaker thing with a Marine Corps Logo on it. The guy behind the counter leaned towards me and asked if I was in the Marines. You alway know when that happens whatever comes next till be ……. interesting. I told him yes. He asked me why I didn’t go over there and get Ben Laden. I assumed he missed the obvious … that I am nearly 60 years old. Then he said with proper machismo, “I got 3 or 4 guys who are willing to go over there with me and get him. There is a $25 million dollar bounty on him yanno.”
The obvious question then became, “So why don’t you go do it?”
It came down to …….. transportation. He didn’t know how to get him and his posse over there.
Sometimes little details like that … save the lifes of fools like him and his buddies.
No I didn’t volunteer to pay his way, God looks out for fools and drunks.

One day I think I will write a book designed to be made into a movie all about 6-pack Jack and his buddies, actually making it to Pakistan, then tryin to acquire weapons and asking people on the street where Ben Laden is.
Of course it will have a very sad ending.
But it will clean up the gene pool a bit.
