Oh crap, wait...that wasnt the first time I met a poser!
davidhmd's reference to "SEAL" just reminded me of a LONG while ago. I was strapped for cash and in between jobs so I did one of those weekend pharma studies (one where they test a drug for effects...crap like that..) for 1500$...long story, not proud of it, but when rent is due, it happens.
Anyway, one of the guys doing the study, probably around 40 some odd years old. His waist was about the size of one of my legs. Probably one of the most scrawney people I have ever met in my life. the guy wasn't more than 5"4...and about 120 pounds. The guy walked around with a SEAL cap on, telling stories about his times in the NAVY SEALS.
What struck me as funny was, a few weeks before, there was a special on TLC about some operation where the SEALS were in South America, and took some airport at night. Cant remember exactly where, or what the mission entailed, but the guy must have seen it because he was going on and on about the operation, how hard it was...etc etc.
At the time I wasn't in the forces yet, but this guy had bull$hit written all over him. What was funny was, one of the doctors who was in charge was talking with me and my buddy and says "this guy is full of crap...he's a frenchman from Verdun"
Not that we needed it to seal the deal (no pun intended
), but it was funny none the less.
