Lloyd - where is my sand

[airhead]

I got an envelope from Lloyd today. Man it is good to hear from you. Glad you beat your letter home.

HOWEVER there was no sand in the envelope. I was looking forward to that genuine Iraq sand. I was going to base my Nefsokar (Reaper Warlord) faction with it. OK, it is not Egyption sand, but a lot closer than Florida sand.

Alright, I am not upset that I didn\'t get the sand, and I am way glad that you are home safe with you wife.

Anyway you can swing through FL on your way out? I\'d be happy to buy you a meal. Take you fishin too if you got time.

Sorry bout the sand - it was in there when it left must have been the customs folk.

Unfortunately, I\'m swinging through Minneapolis to fly back to Iraq - go north to go east, thats the KLM/NWA way.lol

Could be worse though - flew into Detroit with a guy whose final destination was Raliegh North Carolina.

figure that one out.

Hey, I didn\'t get any sand either!

...But I did get plenty of goosebumps reading about all your helicopter experience...Geez oh Pete, you\'ve flown almost all of them and your excitement in describing them was palpable!

I must admit, being grounded had an awful effect on me, but the darn rainbow in my heart refused to stop shining, so I didn\'t stay down too long!:flip::bouncy:

Well, Faye, starting Monday the 18th I was on a CH-46, an AN-24B, a 737-300, a 777, an Airbus 319, and an Airbus 300.

Since I got to Iraq, I\'ve been on a 737-200 (complete with bullet holes in the wings), 2 C-130\'s and a HH-53. I\'m adding to that long list of aircraft I\'m not supposed to be on
