When I was in The Basic School Colonel Smith recommended that we read the book "3 Cups of Tea" in order to understand the Afghan culture prior to deploying there. I did read it, and once I was in Afghanistan I was glad I did, because I had 3 cups of tea with the Afghan Army Company Commander, Major Jalwal, every day.
We sipped tea and spoke about the patrols that his soldiers did that day, he would come up with excuses for why they didn't patrol in the most dangerous areas, I would pretend to care, I'd wink at one of his chai-boys hoping to catch an OTP-HJ, and then I'd eat as much rice as I could before leaving their patrol base.
It was nice.
Unfortunately, I never got the chance to have 3 cups of tea with the Taliban. If God had given me the opportunity, I would have gotten at least 3 knife kills, I would have used one of their mouths as my urinal, and made an ear necklace, in addition to politely supping my 3 cups of tea.
So, this photo shoot is about what I wish I could have done, and I'd like your input.
I'm going to have myself a little tea and ear party with at least 3 dead Taliban in a dungeon. This will likely take place in the abandoned Griffith Park Zoo, in LA.
Just imagine a cross between an Afghan Shura, and the movie "Weekend at Bernie's," with me in a cheerful and lighthearted mood, and my pinky held out as I sip my chai tea.
And if you don't want to comment, then EMAIL me your ideas to make these photos even better.
If you don't like dark humor, it's because you're a pussy.
