Lactose Intolerance , by Jason .. This is not for those without a sense of humor or a strong stomach. Keep in mind that amidst the boredom, anything could be entertaining.
From a letter dated 4 June 2003: All, .Life if good and bad. I am now living on a roof in Al-Kut. Its dirty and tile. And yes, just as hard as the cement downstairs, but we so lucky to live on the roof must watch out for the tar that lines the two foot square tiles that melts at a cool 90°..in the sun. So never mind the 120° + that we can get here. Everytime I get up from lying or sitting in the daytime I nearly blackout as does everyone else. It is the heat combined with dehydration. …. You see, when it drops to the chilly temperature of 85°at night, I can rehydrate, but the sun just wicks it away before noon. I should have to let Poseidon know about this.

Now that I think of it there is something odd about that ice cream, its not really so much like monkey-snot but.. …. I cannot entertain that thought any longer lest I be sick. Yes, that is right; the ice cream did make me sick. Just a little indigestive trouble. The first movement was welcome, the second was not. …. When you are eating MREs for 50 days straight despite the warning not to exceed 10 days without real food, your movements become very far between, a matter of days perhaps a week in the case of some, and your dropping very firm, nay hard. The kind that if you had a porcelain toilet filled with water would not go ‘plop’ like they should at home, but ‘plop-tink’ when they break the placid water and then strike the bottom of the bowl as marbles would sound dropped in a glass...
