So, me and my partner had to run down the road to a meeting. Of course the road we travel is a frequent hotbed of IED activity. About 5 minutes after we left our little compound, we hear a large explosion from behind us. My partner, Danny, says "I wonder who got hit". So, thinking nothing more about it, we continue to our meeting. As we care coming back towards the compound we see smoke rising in the vicinity of our compound only to arrive to this:

No more compound. The only thing left is a box adressed to me from Mike. This guy not only demolished my compound and I now have to sleep in the truck, but he destroyed my wish list with a vengence.

Brother, I don't even know where to start. Thank you, this has made my week. Now the hard part is going to be letting them rest long enough to recover from the trip. Again, thank you, you have out done yourself sir!

    Sweet merciful heavens! Has the bleeding stopped yet?
    For Pete's sake, Mike! The boys fighting for us and you put him on the sick/lame/lazy list...
    Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy! Enjoy, James, and come home safe!

    Thanks Brett, Nikki does enjoy throwing me under bus's, 18 wheelers, whatever she can find really.

    Dan, I still can't hear, is blood from the eardrums normal? And it hurts when I pee, that may not be from the explosion though.....

    Blood from the ears... Nope, not normal. Sorry...
    As for hurting when you pee... As long as there aren't any chunks and it doesn't smell like pork, you should be ok.

    Really nice hit, Mike! Good to see that being on the other side of the planet still isn't far enough to be safe from you!
