Dear Islam,

Americans ARE NOT "Islamaphobic".

Phobia is fear.

We are not afraid of you, We hate your "Mohammed lovin' guts!"

Sincerely,

The Green Mountain Boys

P.S. We will find you and we will kill you. That is all.

Is it considered a coup if you start making leadership decisions that your bosses are never around to make themselves?

No they are lazy and will enjoy it and take credit for any good decision you make. But if you fuck up, I am sure they will hang your ass out to dry.

But wait, it gets even better. Seems like I heard that the newest feature is a geotracker or something like that which will constantly show all your Facefriends where you are. And people are willingly doing this and think it is sooooo cool...

Yeah, as former USAF I think it's cool also. It will make JDAM's and JSOW's that much more effective. So following that thought, Can we launch the Facebook membership drive for tango's? :roll:
