I took a little inspiration from Old Bob and decided to learn a little about dowsing. So today after a long day's work I decided to conduct a little experiment in dowsing. Now now, I know many of you feel that dowsing is woo but my results speak for themselves.

For those uninitiated, dowsing is the ability to detect valuable resources remotely through magic... or something. I used a simple plastic coat hanger. Here in Iraq there are few trees to cut and forked stick so I managed to use what I had available.





Here I am dowsing the motor pool for said valuable resources. At first it was slow going but gradually I was able to pin-point a faint "tick" I was receiving. Note the intense concentration on my face. Also note the fantastic hair.

Found the spot! Time to start digging!!! Will it be water? Gold? Iron? IED? UXO? Let's see! Dowsers have claimed to be able to find anything from tumors to tungsten so who knows what we'll find out here in the desert.

Oh... there it is! Just below the surface of the desert!! We've hit some sort of vein!

Softcore pornography ore! An extremely valuable resource out here indeed. Let's just hope the DVD isn't too scratched!!

Eh, sorry Mods, would you mind moving this to the humor section? I only just noticed there was a humor section. Sorry and thanks.

Are you sure it was the coat hanger that was pointing?

I'm sorry, but your Challenge application clearly said that you could find hardcore porn.

foxholeatheist,

That is the most desolate motorpool I've ever seen in my life! That vehicle looks so lonely out there. Anyway, the hair is fantastic. Do you have to do it yourself?
The hair! The hair! I meant the hair! :p

I hope the cover on that mag protected your DVD. :duck:


PS
Glad to see how well you are coping with your deployment, some soldiers would lose their sense of humor. You certainly made me laugh today. :)

Well plastic coathangers are going to find plastic, silly (I meant the dvd box, not the actess)
Great pics, gave me a laugh.

Well, if I may direct your attention to my groin area you can clearly see that I have no such active biological device. That came later. Oh, the puns never stop!

Yeah... you'll get the occasional terrible movie like Baby Geniuses or something. Keep trying!

I'm sorry, but your Challenge application clearly said that you could find hardcore porn.

Define hardcore. I merely call it softcore because this film has no males.

Yeah, that is a pretty desolate motor pool. All moon dust too. Knowing some of my NCO's I am surprised we haven't yet been on a sweeping detail yet. Weapons must be cleaned daily. We work out there from about 2:30am to 11am to avoid the heat.

The vehicle is deadlined and thus deserves to sit out there all by itself. The working tanks get to hang out together because they have the good sense not to break.

Wait ... isn't that a copy of "The Girl, The Tent, And The Camel's Nose"?

No but that sounds like one I should keep my eye, er, coat hanger out for. This one is called "I Touch Myself Solo Interviews 5". How it got there... who knows. They don't call it divining for nothing.

Hmm... well next I should devise a leather and latex dowsing rod. I think those results would be more befitting to my tastes.

I am thinking of opening a porn mine but I need to keep it quiet lest the Iraqi's get wise and start flexing their mineral rights on my patch. I think I'll park a tank over that spot and covertly mine whatever remaining porn might be there.

Going to Baghdad for the next few days. See ya'll later!!
