I've Been Promoted!

I was pretty bummed when I found out I didn't get promoted to E-7 this cycle. I studied real hard, but not hard enough obviously! Seems I wasn't the only one who felt pretty bummed. One of my new friends Ron Phillips (VO-BB), jokingly said he was going to get me promoted...one way or the other. I assume this is "the other" way he was talking about. All laughs aside, I'm very honored for this promotion. In fact, so was my Chief. He called everyone to attention and read the below letter.




I think if anyone, my Uncle Jim will be the proudest of this promotion. He's lived in Kentucky for like "ever!"

With this promotion comes the secret recipe for Kentucky Fried Chicken and a lifetime supply of Kentucky Moonshine. I can only share the later with all of you!

Well we are 24-hours into the big show. Here is a link to a 4mb audio file of the first 24-hours...Here is a promo pic too!

Operation Camel Back

(The Curious One's back, Aries "D" front right, Kasbah with chips, A.K. at con)

We have a new DJ on Freedom Radio. A.K. has all of two shifts under his belt. He's very funny and has a great spirit. The problem!!! All of his great qualities were not transfering over to his radio personality. So the team, minus A.K. came up with Operation Camel Back. We wanted to shock his system. Losen him up. So we did what any other DJ serving in Iraq would do. We brought in some near beer and chips. Enjoy!
