Merry Christmas, but bahumbug as well.

[Crossbow]

Merry Seasons or Happy Greetings or whatev.  I got a family, so consider me out of contact for a day or two.

As I've said before, I will be out of contact starting now until the 4th of January, as I'll be lucky to have cell phone coverage, let alone internet where I'm going.  So see you guys back in the next year.

Hey, sorry for being out of the loop for a bit--been busy getting ready for yesterday & dealing with sick kids. Should be calmer now.

[HydroRaven]

I just arrived in male, no problems On the flights but they were long.  It's hot out here though (About 30 degrees Celsius difference).

[HydroRaven]

How long was the flight?

[farothel]

2 flights of About 6 Horus each, with one flight of 2 hours still to come.

[HydroRaven]

Wow, are you sure you're not traveling to Antarctica?

[Crossbow]

took me about 22 hours to get to Afghanistan, when i went.

[Mercy Merchant]

Sounds like quite the adventure.  Have you been there before?

[Crossbow]

It was boring as heck, I went over three times and had leave twice during tours.  Hated most of it.

[Mercy Merchant]

As a former US Army Ranger and infantry company commander, I salute you for your service.  Thank you for your sacrifices.

[Crossbow]

You did a lot more than I did sir, but you are welcome and thanks for yours.  When did you serve?
