Overheard at houston international airport aka "george bush
international airport"

This is a conversation between a young, fairly attractive white girl,
her sk8er boi brother or boyfriend (I can't tell based on their body
language), and an american soldier travelling home from iraq. It takes
place at the smoker's bench 25 feet from the entrance to the terminal.
(Ahhh city ordinances.)

Girl: can I trade you for a kool?
Soldier: yeah girl, no problem
Girl: thanks..my mom won't buy me menthols
Soldier: ha
Girl: I don't see why they're any worse
Me: that menthols shit will kill you
Soldier: lolz

A few minutes pass, sk8er boi walks up

Sk8er boi: what's up man
Soldier: just trying to get home.
Sk8er: where have you been?
Soldier: iraq, kuwait, germany, new jersey (more I didn't hear)
Girl: wow
Sk8er: iraq? Did you see any action?
Soldier: yeah. Everyone over there sees action
Sk8er: was it bad
Soldier: chuckles.
Me: take it easy.
Soldier: you too man. Have a good one


I just thought the exchange was funny. Maybe you had to be there. Sk8er
boi was complete with shorts, skate shoes, crooked sk8 company hat...and
all the lack of social skills that only a 16 year old boi can have.

So, to all the soldiers travelling home for the holidays from this
bullshit war...hats off to you. God bless you all, be safe, and "eff"
george w. and his evil profiteering sidekick DICK cheney.

all that "s" will kill you, not just the menthols. they will just kill you while cooling your mouth and throat.

Merry Christmas to one and all!
