Just when you thought it didn't exist...

...the funny side of Ramadi is revealed! The video titled 'Lazy Ramadi', produced by two U.S. Army staff sergeants, is easily one of the funniest videos I've seen in a long time. Just like 'The Way to Amarillo', 'Lazy Ramadi' made me laugh very, very hard! You might have seen SSGs Wright and Dobbs on ABC's World News Tonight a few weeks ago, which is where I first saw the video. Apparently, they made the tape solely for the entertainment of their immediate families and friends, but luckily for the rest of us, it’s hit the internet. Haven’t seen 'Lazy Ramadi' just yet? You can find the video here, but a disclaimer first: there is a little bit of bleep-able language. But, it wasn't anything that Charlie Gibson couldn't handle on the 5 o'clock news, so I think we're in the clear there! Unfortunately for M., though, one of the great ironies of being downrange is that stuff made by soldiers, for soldiers...can't always be seen by....soldiers. Access to streaming video (like YouTube.com) isn't allowed downrange, so despite my best efforts, he has yet to see this clip. But with any luck, he'll be home in just a few more months and enjoying unrestricted internet access once again. Until next time, enjoy, and have a good week!
