Scotch, yes; Oreos, no. I have to admit, I shudder at the juxtaposition

Oh, Gods..... GET IT WRITTEN NOW!!!!!!!!! Seriously, Bob, I've already got one of your papers on the required reading list, but I want that!!!!!

Personally, I'd take an image of a trooper, put a media guys on his back, an NGO person on their back, and a politician on top of them and sub-title it "The modern, agile soldier". Then again, I've been told I have a low sense of humour...

Ditto, sir. Why do you think we take the time to critique you? Consider it free editing and peer review.

Preach it Brother Bob. Preach! Pastor done told me that I need some saving on my soul

In Dear John (yes I watched it. If you didn't, then you got your own issues). Anyways, in Dear John, there was a great scene when the Green Beret was patting an indigenous soldier on the shoulder as he was executing a task. I thought that scene summed up small wars perfectly.
