Osama...is that you?

This came from an impromptu Chadian news page, another blog from someone in/around Abeche...

But besides this, things have been heating up along the eastern border. The IRC had another disastrous encounter...another truck stolen, and the French has been stepping up their military patrols greatly. Every morning I wake up to French built Mirage fighter planes taking off and landing...

Friend Finder
August 30, 2006: According to sources convinced of the truth of what they are saying, Osama Bin Laden is working among the Janjawid in southern Sudan, near the Chadian border. Osama is said to be riding horses and destroying villages along with the other Janjawid, and living from place to place, moving from one village to another. When it was speculated that this cannot be true, that it is a lie to try to scare the DarFurians, the source insisted that the information is true, that Bin Laden is living in southern DarFur. You heard it first here at ChadNews...

hmmm. Think I'll go for R&R now, thank you.

yeah the Key West thing was you...I was the drunken bystander that got tossed down the stairs with 4 beers in hand, not having a clue what was going on. Thanks for the reminder Pete! Ironically I've met this girl here who used to bartend at that very same bar...small world. I told her your/our story. Take it easy, always great to hear from you!

So you'll fly the BE-1900 for UN VIPs with no HF and then AOG for a CVR? Are you CRAZY? If you go down without HF Osama will find you before SAR. If there is SAR. Hope that sat phone is charged. I love acronyms.

What are you doing for R&R?

thanks for the heads up Tom. I passed it along to our disgruntled S.A. engineer who I'm sure will do nothing with it. Who needs wings anyhow? Now if it were the CVR it'd be totally different.
