Helo LandingGeneral Order #1: No alcohol or naked photos what-so-ever.
It is not just a rule on this base, it is the rule for the entire country.
How do soldiers, airmen and sailors cope with this?
Answer: Near beer
Monopoly:
The military exchange is a monopoly out here! I can't believe that I have to pay so much for the things I want! They falsely advertise, "We go where you go, and our prices stay the same."
Bullshit! Digital cameras, laptops, televisions, computers, memory, batteries, video games, music CDs, DVDs, MP3 players, DVD players are all outrageously priced. The prices stay the same for toothpaste, bubble gum and toilet paper, but not the "good stuff" that keep us sane.
Another thing I noticed is that they stock the stupidest crap. They have very little idea what the target customer really wants. There are 40 copies of "Bad News Bears" PSP movie just sitting on the shelf collecting dust for over 2 months! There could be some cool video game there in it's place, but no... they have to sell out of it before they restock with something fresh. Why aren't they stocking war games? Or race car games? Everybody loves playing "SOCOM: US Navy Seals", instead they stock stupid shit like, 30 copies of an old crappy movie called "Death Race 2000" or 30 copies of "Robocop" or games designed for six year old kids. C'mon people! We're in a warzone! There's no kids here. You're killing me! If you're going to stock up on stupid miscellaneous crap, get only 5 copies, not 30. Jeez.
Jokes:
To maximize our use of time out here, we try to entertain ourselves with pranks and jokes. My latest prank is setting up wooden mouse traps in the refrigerator. To watch someone reach in and see all those mouse traps! Hahaha! What is even funnier is when someone actually reaches in for something and set them off! OOOUCHHH!!!
Another prank that has been going around is the "FN + Num lock" key. My boss actually bought a new keyboard because someone had changed his keyboard configuration! Hehehe
