#1 "Old Campers", huh--how quaint. That's like calling Jack the Ripper a "Cutlery Enthusiast" or Jeffrey Dahmer an "Unusual Gormet".

#2 One reportedly fell into a crevasse.

Oh, that's so unfortunate.

#3 Yeah, that poor crevasse. I hope it's getting counseling.

#4 ""They were not very advanced affairs," the police officer said."
I guess it's the same in all forms of service. Some carry spears, and some carry water. The physical requirements for effectively delivering this quote is a good example. Can you imagine this sneer having anywhere the majesty it's sarcasm demands if delivered by anyone lacking a Gallic schnoz to rival De Gaulle himself? T'would be laughable.

#5 "Old Campers?" How ironic. Al Qaida means the "base" or "camp".

#6 I personally can understand why they would prefer to train in France. The food and wine are way better than what's available in Afghanastan

#7 The food and wine are way better than what's available in Afghanastan

You sure about that? Personally I'm not impressed with French cuisine.
