A Dingo Ate My Baby!

Sitting here at work in the wee hours of the morning, I'm doing what every other red-blooded American does to kill time between eating & masturbating...SURFING the INTERNET.   (and doing a little studying)   woot.
Well, I'm not quite sure of the thought process that led me to look up the origin of the phrase "A dingo ate my baby!" but here I am, filled with even more useless knowledge, passing it onto you.

To keep it short, the phrase has been used comedically in Seinfeld, The Simpsons & countless other one-liner situations but sadly enough, it was actually derived from a true story in Australia!   A couple had been camping with their children, the mom left the tent unaccompanied, she comes back to see dingo running off with baby in mouth, never to be recovered.

Hmmm...  How such a tragedy ever made the funny pagers, I'll never know.
But I can't help but laugh when I even just hear the word "Dingo", let alone being followed by "ate my baby".

In other AMAZING news for me, (all you military folks can appreciate), I found out yesterday afternoon that I'm eligible to take the E-7 rating exam in January!   Double-woot!  hell, Triple-woot with naked booby jumping jacks!

I can't wait..   I only put on E-6 a year ago but since I've received 3 years of consecutive 'Early Promotion' evaluations, I'm being given the chance to move even further up the ladder.   Exciting stuff...
Wish me luck!

Last but not least, I leave YOU with a very insightful question, to help me to learn a little about ya..
So without further ado:

Pirate or Ninja?
