You have to give your buddy a little leeway on the bananas, with all he and yourself have done for our country. I am still scratching my head about a special forces guy being "cold", but Vietnam was a few years ago. I am a believer in the curse. Last year Salty and I were fishing with another guy quite a while, with unexplicable negative results. Finally in dispair, I asked if anyone had a banana? Sure enough, there was one on board. Salty did an emergency exorcism! I don't know anyone who can do an exorcism like Salty. Oh yeah, the exorcism included Salty sodomising a salmon with the banana. We immediately started catching fish. You should be aware that the curse often times persists! If that is your case, I strongly reccomend that you contact SALTY! Many thanks again for your service in Vietnam.
