story goes that OU Captain Bridges invited IC Commander Brown to a rodeo
in his home country as a goodwill gesture. Commander Brown brought her 8
year old daughter Elina and let her try her hand at sheep riding.
Reference video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhNKjbKHc8U
Captain Bridges almost busted a gut laughing when Elina got thrown off
the
sheep. And of course Commander Brown took it kinda personal. She had her
aide send Captain Bridges a note, saying, "I take offence at your
behavior
today, and I don't take it litely."
Well, Captain Bridges penned a return note, which said, "I will take it
as
LIGHTLY as I please, Commander."
There was a brief firefight that week on the disputed island of Coconut,
and
both sides took casulaties before the UN could manage to step in.
