Fortunate Son Guitar Intro...

I just realized something the other day. While reading "AK47: the Story of the People's Gun" by Michael Hodges (not that good and in desperate need of an editor who speaks English) I came to realize something. The Vietnam War was fought in the jungle. I know, right!

Don't get me wrong. I knew that the Vietnam War was fought in the Jungles of Southeast Asia long before picking up the book and even before Pvt. Gump went back for Lt. Dan. What caught me off guard was when I put the book down after reading an interesting passage and then staring off into space from the bus which was taking me Nakhon Si to Surat Thani. It then it me like a ton of bricks.

I live in the middle of the freakin' jungle! I then put on my iPod and began to listen to some CCR, proud of the knowledge that was just gleaned from this book.

Paranoid, I turned the music off after about 30 seconds and went back to reading.

I live in the middle of the jungle.
