Re: Man Shoots Girl's Mandible Off*
I haven't seen it but will try to find it. I can promise you that every bit of that story is true. He was looking through a set of Nikons and a phone in his other hand. They had him on video buring the boomer. The convoy switched routes the next morning. He was waiting for the convoy ant trying to where they were. We were told to eliminate him and then call in the EOD for removal. I was trying to get him from the front but he turned and look to his right for a second too long and paid for it. He went down immediately.......and then got back up and RAN. Two more in the back finished it.

Re: Man Shoots Girl's Mandible Off*
No, no, that's not how I meant it, that's why I added the caveat that I didn't think you were exaggerating. It's just that people who have seen it will remember this scene, which is how it actually happened, but then later when the story is retold the dude's head pops off spinning into the air, and the body stays standing to spray a bit--Kill Bill style before falling. Probably because Las Vegas is the only desert I've ever been to, when trying to picture your story, I fell back both times on the atmosphere of this scene. Context I guess, for imagining what it might have been like for you. I expect I've seen most of the film and series made about Middle Eastern wars. I doubt any of them are actually realistic. That one Generation Kill was pretty sweet though, but I think I liked Three Kings most. It gave this strange impression of how tiny and meaningless--to the point of comical, human goings on are. I forgot Men Who Stare At Goats, that is rad as hell too. Better even, I think. I drink any material I can find on that First Earth Battalion right the fuck in. I think that shit is just about the funniest and weirdest stuff I can think of. Like listening to that notorious psychological operator Colonel Aquino. I love this story about them attaching loud speakers to the bellies of helicopters in Vietnam, and flying around playing weird sci fi monster sounds while dropping leaflets into the jungle about the resurfacing of some monster out of their traditional folklore. |

Re: Man Shoots Girl's Mandible Off*
I believe that cat has just been hired on as a "background extra" for the next season of the Walking Dead …………… Scene: we are outdoors. The undead are milling around, awaiting a meal. And the Director yells "Action!" He says: "You, yes YOU, the brindle kitten stumbling around behind the zombie with the dreadlocks - I need you to really get into the scene, I need you to say "braaaaiiiiiins, give me braiiiinnsss" as if you haven't eaten in a year !" Annnnnd Action ! "No, NO, you stupid feline. Don't go "meoowwwww, meoowwwwwwwww" - a meow is not threatening ! I want to see all 10 inches of you rear up like a T-Rex and roar out "BRRRRAAAAAAAIIIINNNNSSSSS'. "Fuck this, where's the Assistant Director ? Right, get this ball of fur out of here, I don't know why it was hired in the first place ?? What ??!! You hired this thing on basis of a gore website blood licking scene ???" "Where's my 2nd Assistant Director ? Right, you're the new Assistant Director, and you can start by firing this idiot here …………." |

Jesus Christ, that cat looks like it must carry papers that say "Don't. Fuck. With. Me" Gimmie, that cat is giving me the evil eye - as if I still owe it 50 bucks from last year or something |
