    I have to say our American cousins are easily wound up. Just wondering if anyone else has found our Yank allies are a tad easy.

    Beer was involved and said USMC Staff Sergeant (23 year old by the way) was becoming emotional and patriotic.

    Conversation went like this:

    Me: So have the Marines got over Vietnam yet?

    Yank: Mot**r f88*er!! Wadaya mean? Where the F**k were you guys for that?

    Me: Us? Well we thought the Vietcong were doing alright on their own so thought we’d sit it out.
    (I did debate pointing out certain UK and Aussie elements had been there trying to help the US).

    Yank: (Confused look until he twigged) Lots of mangled swearing ending in “f**k you too as*hol*”

    Yanks have no sense of humor or grasp of the subtle art of sarcasm.

    Hey Becky! They are doing fantastic! I had a dream last night that I gave birth to another one :lol: . Come to think of it :-k , it was more of a nightmare :lol: . I had a newborn along with my 4 month old. YIKES! And in my dream I was crying because I loved the baby, but I was depressed that I just regained my pre-baby body and then gained all the weight back :lol: . The old saying goes that if you have a dream about a baby, it usually means there is somebody in your family that’s preggers. It sure as hell isn’t me, so I’m going to give my sister the 3rd degree today :lol: I will laugh my a** off if she is. What’s funny is that she had a dream about a baby before I told her I was pregnant with my first born. :o :lol:
    How’s your family? Ready for the warm weather?

    Wasn’t this topic entitled “So have the Marines got over Vietnam yet?” and not Mrs Dale’s Diary?
