Title: A Jarhead Koan Post by: Menard on October 18, 2008, 08:10:05 AM I did this last night ~ it looks great. Unfortunately, due to a slip of the fingah, I now have the Billy Jack theme as my ringtone and the "We got the law here, Billy Jack" line as my message alert tone. :buggedout: I was driving with a colleague this morning, someone sent me a message, the guy heard "We got the law here, Billy Jack" and put his hands up in surrender: he thought the police had pulled us over. :teddyr: :teddyr: It's good to hear, but certainly a fortunate accident. This has now become my favorite quote to use. I'm sitting here wondering how that fits with what Trevor wrote and I realized that it is more like a Zen koan, but in this case it is a jarhead koan. I have realized that this statement fits with everything. For example: "I just stepped out of the shower and the hamper lid fell on my penis" It's good to hear, but certainly a fortunate accident. "I could not find my rake this morning until I stepped on it and it smacked me in the nads" It's good to hear, but certainly a fortunate accident. How would you use the jarhead koan? Go ahead, give it a try. Remember, this is all in good fun, Andrew. :tongueout: Title: Re: A Jarhead Koan Post by: Andrew on October 18, 2008, 08:16:58 AM Generally the use of "jarhead" from someone other than a Marine or Marine-assigned Corpsman is not a friendly term.

If you prefer, you can edit that out and insert 'Hillbilly'.
