I got bit on my foot last month in Bagram. I think the spiders were looking for a warm place. I took a photo of the bite to add to my collection of bite photos. It hurt a little bit. Here it is

Bob my brother. Assuming thats your fat foot, I have bad news for you.

1. That isnt not a spider bite. Its commonly referred to as a VRLB. (Venemous Rangette Love Bite) Many a fine man has had occasion to find their extremities looking such as yours after an intense encounter with a Victory Drive Princess. Note, some poor men have woken up with their "Cootus Erectus" in identical shape.

2. Can I have your boots. You dont need them.

That is a photo of a shark bite I linked from a surfer site if you look at the photo's properties. And its not my foot! I have dainty, delicate, and very nice looking size 13 1/2 size feet.
