 Another little one from the Buffalo Gap paper, December 2007 issue, Vol XII, No. 7, submitted by Adrian LeLoche

A large group of Iraqi soldiers are moving down a road when they hear a voice call from behind a sand dune: "One Texas soldier is better than ten Iraqi".

The Iraqi commander quickly orders 10 of his best men over the dune whereupon a gun battle breaks out and continues for a few inutes, the silence.

The voice once again calls out: "One Texan is better than one hundren Iraqi."

Furious the Iraqi commander sends his next best 100 troops over the dune and instantly a huge gun fight commences. After 10 minutes of battle, again silence.

The Texas voice calls out again: "One Texan is better than one thousand Iraqi."

The enraged Iraqi commander musters 1000 fighters and sends them to the other side of the dune. Rifle fire, machine guns, grenades, rockets and cannon fire ring out as a terrible battle is fought . . . . Then silence.

Eventually one badly wounded Iraqi fighter crawls back over the dune and with his dying words tells his commander, "Don't send any more men . . . it's a trap. There's two of them."

 When I first read this I really wanted to add to it by having the dying Iraqi soldier say "It's a trap. There's two of them, and one of them is a woman."

Does that sound mean and ugly?
