Dinner and dancing at the Dfac

Sometimes music just happens here. Last night was Hawaiian music night at the Boardwalk. Some soldiers had gotten together and were playing reggae and Hawaiian music. Nice. Had my orange smoothie and was hanging out on a beach, sort of. All we need is an ocean. And palm trees. So as close to Aloha as we get around here. Then back to the room to watch "Taking Chance" on the computer. Great movie, but bad choice if you're in Afghanistan. Nothing like crying your eyes out before bed.
The day before there was a brass band playing in the Dfac. Official Army band doing a little dinner jazz. At lunch. I really just wanted to stay and listen but I had to get back to the clinic. Music just busting out all over the AOR.
I took the new Docs to the Saturday Bizarre. I just realized that we are never attacked on Saturday. Now that's Aloha.

I had just bombed with my first joke at the morning meeting. I thought that it was funny:
 A 3 legged dog walks into a saloon in the old West.
He jumps up on the bar and the bartender says,"What can I do for ya?"
The dog says," I'm looking for the man that shot my paw"


{Groan} Cue the music......
