These boys will be dropped off in Iraq and have been given only the following facts about terrorists :
1. The season opened today
2. There is no limit
3. They taste just like chicken
4. They don't like beer, pickups, country music or Jesus
5. They are directly responsible for the death of ELVIS
The Pentagon expects the problem in Iraq to be over by next Friday

Some more news on Captain Fudd.
Under the TSA's Federal Flight Deck Officer programme, pilots may apply for a licence to carry a gun on board for domestic flights.
They must undergo a week-long training course and psychological tests.
Since April 2003, about 5,000 flight deck officers - captains or first officers - have been authorised to carry weapons, Capt Bob Hesselbein, chairman of the Air Line Pilots Association's National Security Committee, told the Associated Press.
All pilots who qualify from the programme are said to carry the same weapon - a .40-caliber semiautomatic H&K USP - which experts say is extremely unlikely to go off on its own.
Psychological tests? Surely just being american would automatically fail you in that case.
Bloody hell, .40 caliber isn't exactly a popgun by any stetch of the imagination. Its just as well he was coming in to land, had it happened at 30,000 feet it would have been a tad ugly seeing as he blew a hole in the side of the cockpit wall.
