I saw this over at my good friends and fellow milbloggers site, http://thisainthell.us/blog/
It is just too funny not to watch a couple of times. They ask a good question over at TAH, “Why is this war taking so long?”

Why is Santa so cool…
Because he is a Jumpmaster of course.
Airborne All the Way Santa….
Good Luck Chuck
So a lot of weird things are happening in the world right now. Osama Bin Laden was killed and quickly dumped into the sea, the Iranians somehow took over our most advanced un-manned spy plane and landed it like they were at a R/C club festival weekend, Kim Jong Il mysteriously croaks of “natural causes”, Putin is no longer the love interest of all of Russia, and now my good friend and ultra smart-ass Chuck from tcoverride.blogspot.com/ is celebrating his birthday in Afghanistan, way to close to the Pakistan border.
Doesn’t he know he is tempting fate like he did in Iraq when he danced a jig on that wire he saw on the bridge and look where that got him. They are coming after you Chuck, the Skull-n-Bones society has a hit on you, the Smoking Man knows all about you and is about to make his first appearance since the X-files were on to come and get you. The dude that always controlled everyone and everything in every season of 24 but we never saw knows where you are.
Dude, you have pissed off too many people in the world, tempted fate too many times, and been insubordinate in the eyes of your superiors more times than they can count. Get out of there and come home before you either become the Thursday night special of Mullah Omar himself or they plant an IED in your favorite port-o-john and finish the job of turning you from a rooster to a hen with a 9-volt battery charge.
And if you just can’t get out of there, well do your best and give it a 110% effort of continually pissing off every single person over there that you don’t like. This could include higher-ranking military leaders, the Afghan Army, Afghan Police, Afghan Border Police, Pakistani military, contractors working on the FOB, DA Civilians, local Afghan Nationals, coalition partners, your peers, and hell even your subordinates. Last by not least, every single reporter, wannabe reporter or fat, lazy, stupid picture-taking, donation begging thai-boy loving waste of oxygen you ever come in contact with.
Oh and Happy Birthday good buddy.
North Korea has the best dancing army in the world
We may be the only Superpower left, but North Korea definitely has their dance moves down pat. We need Paula Abdul and Robin Antin to start advising the DoD.

Afghan Crud
That is what we called it, the Afghan Crud. Everyone gets it, I got it, and some will have it a couple of times during their tour. There is no avoiding it, so you just have to be ready to take it head on and deal with it. I got mine less than 2 months into my tour, and was glad to have it quick and be beyond it. Of course I did enf up getting it again.
Stars and Stripes has a grotesque but funny story about soldiers getting the “crud” in Afghanistan today.
A virus is moving through the men of this unit, a Security Force Assistance Team assigned to mentor members of the Afghan National Civil Order Police. The blitz bug puts them down for a day or two. It is short, violent, and — to the still-healthy — pretty funny.
“Trantham!” someone yells, laughing. “Is it bile, or Gatorade, or what?”
“Drink Gatorade, dude. Sip it, don’t chug it.”

Watch a battle between Coalition and the Taliban
Yes you can see a battle develop between ISAF and the Taliban right here:
www.stripes.com/blogs/stripes-central/stripes-central-1.8040/nato-taliban-get-into-duel-on-twitter-1.155049
It is an amazing fight and pretty cool to watch our ISAF forces get the upper hand on the Taliban and whip them up. Of course it isn’t as exciting as an actual battle since it is on Twitter.
Yes ISAF has finally started to figure out the IO (Information Operations) fight and how to counter an enemy whom is very successful at this unique front in the War on Terror. For many, many years they have been winning over public opinion with their lies and dis-information. As evident from the link above we can see that ISAF is now figuring out how to counter them and inform the world of the truth. Amazingly it happens in less than 140 characters at a time.

In honor of Thursday night man love night
My blog posts about the happenings on Thursday nights in Afghanistan are some of the most read ones on this blog (thanks to so many other websites linking to them).
Since it is Thursday, I thought I would share this funny video with the readers of this blog. I actually found it by way of a reader who left a comment and a link to this video.
I am also including the lyrics below the video because well they are what makes it funny and sometimes are hard to hear.
Lyrics:
always knock first
dont open that door
you dont know what
is waiting in store
on man love thursday
I tried to warn you
you never listen to me
hadji dudes going at it
if you’re lucky only two or three
you never know if it’s a boy a goat or a man
you don’t wanna know what he does with his left hand
now you know what it’s like
working with the afghan army
everywhere you look
it’s homosexuality
on man love thursday
I swear I’ll cut you
if you try to hold my hand
and quit playing grab ass
when we’re looking for the taliban
you never know if it’s a boy a goat or a man
you don’t wanna know what he does with his left hand
for the love of god
get me out of here
I’m beginning to suspect
my team mates have all gone queer
on man love thursday
