A Death Near My Unit...

Well, we all knew this day was going to come at some point.  Yes my friends, this is the saddest day in my 8 year military career.  They have always told me if you stay in long enough you will lose a close friend.  Well fellow readers, today is the day I have to announce the death of a close personal friend of mine.  

My friend and I were introduced a long time ago initially.  Back when I worked at Nordstrom's Cafe is when we met initially.   We had a "brief" relationship.  Honestly, I have no idea why we were separated.  While a great friend, we just could not be together longer than a day no matter how hard I tried.  The two of us had a fantastic relationship!  

Time has a tendency of healing all wounds and sure enough, I had forgotten about my close friend after joining the Air Force.  However, less than a year had gone by before I started remembering my old friend.  However, as luck would have it, I was on my way back to Phoenix.  Back in those days, I was fairly poor yet I still vowed to meet up with my old friend.

There, sitting near a clearance rack was my old friend.  I could not resist nor could afford more than one pair of my 2xist boxer briefs.  My friend offers a perfect balance of support while still giving up the freedom of boxers.  Plus, the ladies dig 'em.

This morning, I went to pull up my 2xist's and as I did, half of them stayed around my ankles!  Not one to be a waste, I pulled the rest up and decided to go about my business. After all, maybe I could salvage them. However, after a day of wearing (waring maybe?) them even Jesus could not save these poor things.  They were stupid comfortable and I love being able to read the news paper through my underwear!

I would like you all to take a moment of silence to mourn the loss of a friend.  I know I sure did!
