    I submitted an application a few months ago as advised by a high-ranking military official. I got the letter today and they have accepted me into the Armed Forces Entertainment program. I will be performing for troops all over the world specifically in Iraq. My family is a little concerned as am I, but with risks that the troops are taking everyday it would be less than cool for me to pass up the opportunity.

    Keep AB in your prayers as I take a little Clutch BBS love where they need it most.

    He won't come back the same. He'll have flashbacks of jokes that bombed.

    Awesome, dude! If anyone could use a smile or two, it's a soldier serving in Iraq.

    Good luck! :)

    Wow. Good for you, man. Best of luck!

    I'm not sure if I should say "break a leg" or "I hope you kill 'em!" Either way, knock 'em dead, AB. :D
