This older wannabe is a little timid to reply. I have been trying to heed the advice of George and others who seemed to have reformatted that old "two ears one mouth " saying into " since you have two eyes and one mouse, read twice as much as you post." But, I have to say thank you for some really funny stuff. You really got me laughing. Seriously, some of these witty digressions are a lot more useful to me than some of this sh*t about how fluffy the pillows will be on basic training. Man some of you guys have a lot of patience. If lucky enough to get in I know it will be a lot of fun.
But, back to the thread before I get my butt chewed. I spent a week in the Amazon jungle with an ex Peruvian commando. His name was Orlando and he operates out of Iquitos. You do not have to worry about the piranhas - they are actually pretty tasty. But try real hard to avoid getting a hard on at night - that is just more surface area for the mosquitoes to bite. Always eat the stew or anything else that is really hot. If you are lucky the germs will be dead. ( I did pay money for this, but it was a very good friend's idea and I am sticking to that story!)
Again thanks kindly,
Rod
