Today's English Lesson

Try explaining what 'ass-chewing' means to a Korean general.

My not-quite-daily meetings with BG Lee and 2LT Oh usually consist of story telling - the general goes first, then the lieutenant, then me. Life here isn't terribly exciting, but last night I received a semi-ass chewing from my boss. So I decided to relay that story to the others. LT Oh learned English where proper students should learn - England. I don't think either really understood what I meant by "ass-chewing." It was fun trying to explain it though.

Hi Kiddo, this looks to a fun thing to do! Keep it going. Ahh, American English, it can be a tough one to learn. So what was the "ass chewing for"? (You don't have to tell)and did you get it accross?

I love your blog. You may not think anything exciting is happening there but it's a great way to relay all that non exciting stuff happening in Iraq! P.S. Are you going to let us in on the ass-chewing incident?
