A Muslim story

A Muslim story

In his case he was from Afghanistan.

And he was real smart, too. He would routinely beat me in the game of chess, for example. And he had eagle eyes when adjusting artillery, too.

Now that always hurt my feelings in all cases. But when you get beat, well, you get beat. He beat me.

Now I believe he is now a doctor in New York State, too. How he immigrated here I do not know right now.

And he had several phrases I will never forget.

1)      Having one wife was expensive enough. Having four wives (in his religion) was more than he could afford.

2)      Don’t tell anyone about his eating bacon and drinking alcohol. I didn’t until now, decades later.

3)      He taught me gun drill on certain Russian made artillery gear at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. I like our American gear and methods, by the way. Mostly our American methods are more accurate.

4)      A bottle of vodka would usually get one male laid by a Russian female outside of the school outside of the Moscow school for foreign military training.

5)      Daughters in his time in Afghanistan would never be allowed to even ride a tricycle as it might rupture their hymen.

6)      A male could legally murder his wife on their wedding night if they did not “bleed” appropriately.

7)      All wedding nights required a male in Afghanistan to hang the blood spotted sheet outside their room to prove she was a virgin.

8)      Lots of girls got their hymens restored by surgery in Syria.
