"I didn't know you were in the army reserves. That sounds like a great hobby. You get to play soldier, save money on taxes..."
--civie budding in on a conversation with the CSM.

Not today but a couple of days ago I overheard:

Sgt, while trying to loosen up the FNGs on PAT: "Bloggins: how are you making out? How was your run?"
Bloggins: "Great 'Sir'. It was actually very easy. I enjoyed it a lot."

(While discussing my experience in Afghanistan with a gr 11 high school class)

"What's a Fire-fight? Do you guys use flame-throwers?"

(After the presentation, out in the hall, asked by a student in the class.)

"So... are you in the army or something?"

My answer; "Something like that... yeah."

His reply; "Oh... that makes sense now."

... I was in uniform.

Today, my friend and I were discussing my employment options. To prevent me from joining, he says:

"Don't join, the Army will send you to Iraq!"

I was speechless.

Well, last night I had a fever from the flu I have, an mom told dad to feel my forehead to see how hot I was. He then said "Ew gross no way," to which I preceded to say "Oh come on, not like I have any germs-."

He was still laughing into his sleep.

At work today, at Value Village: 'Can I put 27 cents on my debit card?'

Yep, that's what I said, 27 cents. Paid $57 cash and put the 27 cents on debit.

... No, I've never said anything like that. *shifty eyes*
A couple weeks ago Redneck Midget and one of his buddies drive to Halifax from rural Hants county. While in the big mall, buddy walks towards a flight of stairs. My response was "Hell with that, I'm taking the auto-walking stairs!"

Don't worry there, Mike. There's a new invention called the thermometer thats all the rage. I hear it will be making it's debut in Newfoundland pretty soon.
P.S.. make sure when you buy one, it says "oral" on the package.

Actually, it's not when you buy it that you have to worry about it's labelling...

It's once you get it home and the family has started to use it.. and people don't realize there is a difference....

Today I was in the office at 7 am. My boss scheduled a TCC at 5:30 p.m. He asked me to take notes, I said "I'm gone at 3 and good luck with my attendance" Thank God we get along really well.
