OK..........OK......I admit it..........I got mine a little over a week ago, from my Mudcat comrade in arms Ranger Roger, and immediately opened it. That sucker............leave it to a damn grunt......got me two lime green thongs, and two of the finest Idaho Spuds you have ever seen. The spuds are big and the thongs are small...........I laughed so hard and the 10 year old just didn't get it.........."Da, you don't wear these, DO YOU????". Oh, yeah, there was also a great book about a vet who returns to Vietnam. I have read that and really enjoyed it. I ate the spuds, as they would have gotten lost behind ...............you know...........bad, Mick, very bad.........and someone has appropriated the thongs

Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanza........whatever it is you do to celebrate the gift of being, Happy that to all.

Mick
