I’ve actually been to Afghanistan and I didn’t run into any braided, comfy spots while I was there. However, I’m going back in May, so I’ll double-check. Roger?
Just remember: While you’re in Afghanistan defending the cause of freedom, some of us will be doing our part by playing with plastic toys from the dollar store.
Excellent!
Reminds me of the joke that made the rounds a while back: “Did you hear about the little old lady in the US who wasn’t allowed to take her crochet hooks on board the airplane…they were afraid she was going to make an afghan.”
Nothing like that … all she was planning was a couple of bomb cozies, and one of those dolls you use to cover the unused roll of toilet paper in the bathroom.
I had cowboys, Indians, Vikings, Romans, Alamo, Rev War, all of them. I get away with it now at 62 by computer games. It has taken 4 days but so far I have taken Europe, Africa and Eastern Asia. Besides they just don’t make good plastic army men any more and my condo is too small to have a real battle.
I would love to mix it up from your list and see Sitting Bull take on Leif Erickson.
Rashy might want to try some hydrocortizone cream for that.
Rashy should have known better than to have messed around with those Falkland Islands girls back in ’82.
I have a brown one.
Correction: my parents have a brown one.
Correction: they have a multi-shaded brown one.
Good lord, I hope that’s an afghan, not an Afghan, you’re talking about.
You kept me in stitches with that punchline!
That’s me; always ready with a yarn.
