“My wife’s uncle works in a military hospital and told me about this. Its pretty amazing. Kevin Garrad (3rd Infantry Division) was on a street patrol in Iraq (Tikrit I believe) and as he rounded the corner of a building an armed (AK-47) insurgent came from the other side.
The two of them were within just a few feet of each other when they opened fire. The insurgent was killed and Kevin was hit in the left chest where his IPod was in his jacket pocket. It slowed the bullet down enough that it did not completely penetrate his body armor. Fortunately, Kevin suffered no wound.”
Now I just need to find some potluck out there. Anyone know of any?

GPOYW - I wish I was in a sidecar in Beijing right now.
I’m finally done scanning my negatives. I just wish I developed them myself. Oh yeah, I could do that…
Beijing rocks.
Dug: I was hiding under your porch because I love you. Can I stay?
This one’s better. Again, its the perfect combo.

My favorite character only because he is a combo of two dogs I currently know.
