The Jpost brings us this story about raging hormones and how to impress a girl. Answer: get her to be locked up at the base while you’re also confined. Here’s the story:
A soldier who reportedly tried to impress a female soldier by sending an e-mail to [IDF Chief of Staff] Ya’alon was confined to base for 28 days as punishment for his hutzpa.
The soldier apparently located Ya’alon’s e-mail address from army records and e-mailed him a message saying, “What’s up, dude?” The soldier, identified by the NRG Web site as a computer operator in the IDF’s C4I unit, used the female soldier’s palm pilot to send the e-mail message. Ya’alon’s office quickly traced the pair.
The female soldier was also punished by being confined to base for 10 days.In a statement, the IDF Spokesman confirmed the incident and said that the two soldiers had behaved inappropriately and were punished accordingly.
What’s up dude? How do you say dude in Hebrew?
Thank you for every other informative blog.
Guts, and hopefully a semblance of intelligence.
From what I hear there is no work involved. Everyone has simple access to his email – they just need the guts to send it!
My guess is that he went with “Ma kore Gever?” – I wonder if he got any play in between sending the message and getting caught? I have my doubts!!
