Okay, got my shots. 6 of them - 3 in each arm. And then the needle points were patched over with official Army requisition Snoopy band aids.
Then this morning it turns out that some commander in Dubais, United Arab Emirates doesn't have his stuff together enough to accomodate us for three days. After all, he's only had since last September to take care of the details.
So the commander at the Pentagon Armed Forces Entertainment cancelled the first three days of the trip. He wasn't too pleased. The drama that unfolded sounded like a good script for a M*A*S*H episode.
We now are scheduled to leave Saturday morning instead.
We're all disappointed. I've heard Dubais is nice this time of year.
Thanks for checking in.

Booo! That's really a shame, man. I've heard wonderful things about Dubai, too.
Jerry,
Good luck and keep your head down. We'll make sure the NSAI group in KC knows about your blog so we can all follow along.
Have fun!

Jerry,
First I've heard of this! Have a great trip and I can't wait to follow along. - SEA
Jerry, the wait will give your snoopy band aids time to do their stuff. Really, what's a few needles to a man of the Northwoods Misquito Wars ?
Well, let's just hope your "bummer" moments are out of the way state-side. Here's wishing smoother travels ahead.
I can't wait to "follow" there.

Well all I can say is Sheik Djibouti. Remember it's i before e except after c, AND in words where it sounds like an a, as in NEIGHBOR and WEIGH. Don't say SHEIK like you say CHIC, it's said like SHAKE or you've made a mistake. Be sure to tell all our players in the big sand-box to be SAFE, SAFE, SAFE.
