sobo Posted November 21, 2012 Author Posted November 21, 2012 60 my ever-lovin' ass! See here, ya little whippersnapper, we kin straighten you out right quicklike. Seriously, thanks for the BD wishes. It's really tough for me to get to cc.com these days. I'm still crazy busy, and I have so many photos to upload now, and the connection speed here is so freak'n slow, that I don't know if I'll ever get them into the gallery. Actually got really close to some locals on a base I had to go to. There was this really cool old British mud fort left over from the Brit's first attmept at Afghan colonization (1839-1842) during the early stages of The Great Game. Fascinating. And I got to see another fort (ruins) that legend has it that Alexander the Great built on his drive through Afghanistan to India, before he turned around and went back home to Macedon. I'll be back in CONUS for the holidays, and will spend a few days with the 'rents in Virginia before completing the cattle drive to WA to be with my young'n for Christmas. Then it's straight back here for the final lap. Should be done here by late spring, unless I re-up... Quote
AlpineK Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Happy Turkey Day Sobo.

I hear they are direct descendants of the velociraptor [img:center]http://skywalker.cochise.edu/wellerr/students/velociraptor/project_files/image007.jpg[/img] [img:center]http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/velociraptors.jpg[/img] Quote
JosephH Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Have a good one, wrap that shite up, and come back safe. Quote

Couloir Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 I only log-in now to read the Sobo updates. Stay safe over there! Quote

ivan Posted November 24, 2012 Posted November 24, 2012 sure...yet...if my underwear was that far up my ass-crack, i'd feel a certain unresistable urge... Quote
sobo Posted March 13, 2013 Author Posted March 13, 2013 Hey y'all! Sorry I didn't check in when I was home for Christmas, but I was pretty busy schlepping the young'ns around and doing that general holiday shite. I'll be back in the PNW in late April/early May for yet another dose of R&R. Oh yeah - I was asked to extend my assignment for another 6 months (to October), and since I didn't have anything else earthshakingly important going on back stateside, I said, "Sure!" It seemed like a good idea at the time... Quote
sobo Posted March 13, 2013 Author Posted March 13, 2013 One more thing... the internet connection at this new base (the third since I've been here) is total shit. It's like going back to 1998 and dial-up. It is so fook'n slow it's impossible to upload photos to the gallery for inclusion in this thread. I'll have to wait until I get home for R&R to upload anything. And I've got some doozies this time... Quote
ivan Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 sounds like you boys got this war just about won now Quote

And are you also now transitioning those bases over to the Taliban and coordinating with their facilities staff instead of closing them? I mean, now that we're partnered up with them and all... Quote

pup_on_the_mountain Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 What's cookin' these days Sobo? Update please... Quote
AlpineK Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 Maybe he'll say something on CC. I hear he signed up for another year of the desert rat. [img:center]http://farm9.static.flickr.com/8142/7478143856_aa51160801.jpg[/img] Quote
Couloir Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 Sobo, at least let us know you're ok. It doesn't have to be a big deal. Super easy on a shitty dial-up modem or whatever you're working with over there. Just say hello. Thanks. Quote

JosephH Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Anyone have email or phone to friends or anyone who could verify he's ok...? Got to be pretty damn busy shutting down bases given the timetable. Quote
Off_White Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I had birthday greetings on Facebook from Sobo back on July 8th, so he was okay then... Quote
