Prisoners Mistreated in Turkish LEGO Fort

Authorities are investigating allegations of prisoner abuse after startling photos leaked. A happy holiday turned sad yesterday as pictures of a detainee surfaced revealing what really happens at the Udy house. The photo shows a baby being subject to immobility in an undersized LEGO jail. When reached for comment, an Airman in the U.S. Air Force, (not speaking on behalf of the USAF) confirmed the photos were of a detainee but declined to comment on whether she had been indicted on any charges. Neighbors did say they had long suspected maltreatment after viewing a video of suspicious repute that has apparently since been destroyed. The child's mother was shocked saying-"I don't know what all the hootenanny is about, she was in the 'Axis of Could Be Evil'.

  International do-gooder's are planning demonstrations outside LEGO headquarters in Enfield, Connecticut. Actor Sean Penn has chartered buses for ne'er do wells without other means of transportation to attend. "Just 'cause you don't have a car doesn't mean you should be denied your right to protest images of children huddling together in LEGO jails across the world" said Penn. 

Meeting of minds

Me and Payton having a beverage and answering the age old question- how was your day?

(Sorry about the shiny-it's my 'don't shoot me or run me over, good guy I'm on your team  reflecty belt'!) I had just come home from work, I swear I don't always just wear camouflage pants like I'm from Michigan.

A new Udy,  Maşallah! Dan and Laurie had a girl on the 18th. 

 This video is a fine example of Athan or Adhan. Five times a day. I like it. Bear in mind however, the Imam at the mosque by our house does not sing this well.  On a sad note, the park behind our house had two kid swings that PJ loved. They are gone. We are going on a month now and she is starting to crack without her swing time. She has been pooping her pants in protest. In turn we had no choice but to mail a sack of these diapers to the person ultimately in charge of the park-1600 Pennsylvania Ave! I doubt it will get noticed since they probably have been getting two or three similar packages a week. We might be able to solve this at a lower level rather than wait for a reply from the states.

Holiday Party Because there is no Muslim Santa

Most people have met a Jesus somewhere along the line. Heck, there's one in my squadron here! However at this time of year those other Jesus' take a back seat for baby Jesus' birthday extravaganza brought to you by Citigroup. 

That is America-here in Turkey a holiday party is just that- A holiday party.

 So on Saturday we gathered as a squadron to celebrate a non-denominational good time. I was asked to M.C. the evenings proceedings and thought to myself, what is funny in Turkey? You see, about half of the people in my area of direct contact are Muslim. Gathering a group of Muslims and Christians to celebrate a Jewish guys birthday, sounds like comedy gold. I just kept thinking I had better make it good because it could be the international incident that ends my career. So I did what I always do, which is, I think about the last thing you would say in a given situation, sanitize it (to keep my job) and let the slob box flow. A lot of people that were there have come to tell me they had a good time and even our commander came in to where I work yesterday and said it was enjoyable. I used both of my good jokes though, so I hope they aren't thinking they can ask for my services again.
All said I am glad that Jehovahs Witness' can't join the military- you want to talk about a tough crowd?
And finally, the theme from Dr. Who is my favorite Christmas song!
