#2 The Waziri Triangle is on the exact opposite side of the globe from the Bermuda Triangle. GPS Never works there.

#3 Not sure if anyone else has brought this up, but does this show that we have tacit approval (by Perv, et. al.) to make these 'incursions', or is it that we just don't give a rat's ass?

#4 . . .fresh batteries for the GPS

Steve - There you go stealing my line. Tsk tsk tsk. He he he

Mr. D. - Precisely. The Army would never have two battery incidents in the same platoon.

But how do we know if the Army's map may have had a typo?

On Raj's serious note. Yes. Hunch. Remarks for public consumption. Privately, we get a wink, as long as we keep it within a certain distance of the border, which is poorly defined anyway.

#8 Private : Sarge? Doesn't the map say that the border runs to the left of the tree, across the rock outcrop, then bends left across the little bridge running over that there brook.

Sargeant: Private! your map is upside-down.

Private: Yes Sarge. Aaah yes! There are no squirrels in the tree on the map. It's that tree over there. . .

#9 Raj,

A win-win for the Perv. He winks, we win, we subdue a rebellious province for him. He winks, we loose, he leads the new Mujahideen against the Great Satan.
