Ah, but that's the beauty of exceeding your loss of all personal dignity threshold - you won't remember that you forgot the words!

Yes, but what if you also forget you had fun?

My GI doc that can't remember me because I was wearing pants in the doctor's dining room gave me 8 mg of versed. That is party time for an African elephant but I can't remember a damn thing until I woke up and Stalker Girl was laughing at the pictures.

By ra way, about Admirah Yamashita's secret pran...I just hope for his sake that Miro is being paid on commission because it won't work. I actually tried it.

Hmm... gotta be an optimist. No memory = must have been mind-blowing fun!

So those were the colon pictures she was laughing at? Damn, what did you eat!

Karaoke is a Japan-mens invention but those Koreans are just karaoke nutcases. We have a big Korean contingent at work. Pretty damn good singers, too.

See, that's my problem. Karoake rook rike great fun but you either have to have a good voice or THINK you have a good voice to enjoy it. I suppose you can drink until you exceed the "loss of all personal dignity" threshold but then how are you supposed to remember the words?

I have the same problem with dancing. I am pretty sure I make Mitt Romney rook rike MJ.

Koreans have mastered the art of exceeding "loss of all personal dignity". All it takes is a bottle of soju and a dare. Then all bets are off. In the interests of full disclosure, the Koreans in the establishments I frequented would just as happily get drunk on Jim Beam, which could be bought tax free at the Class VI store for $2 for a fifth. Jack Daniels was more expensive, it cost $2.80 for a fifth.

Fully fermented sour-mash vs partly fermented cabbage.

Not much of a decision if you ask me.

Air losses from the 3rd. Some bench players were substituted in some ground attacks over Burma...and got the stuffing shot out of them although some hero managed to shoot down a Corsair.

Ground losses from the cruiser bombardment at Naha were overstated...as usual.

Interesting story in Time or Newsweek (whichever one still exists) about the rise of Japanese "militarism". Japan is sparring with the Chicoms over some isrands in the East China Sea. Japan now has a radar installation on Ishigaki (we know where that is, right?) with 160 guys. They also surged 70 F-15's to the civilian airport at Naha. [X(] That a rot of F-15's..even better that P-47's.

Do you keep female slaves, Admiral Lord SPrior? What kind of operation you running there in Kandy House?

'Course not. On the other hand a recent conversation went like this:

Moving house this week, off to Portsmouth. Got a house 50yds from Southsea sea front.

Oh! I do like to be beside the seaside
I do like to be beside the sea!
I do like to stroll along the Prom, Prom, Prom!
Where the brass bands play:
"Tiddely-om-pom-pom!"

Ohhhh...THAT Pompey! Do take lots of sunscreen and don't forget to have a new neighbor hook you up to the internet. [:)]

I think a sou'wester is more in order at this time of year.

Got a jolly nice ISP who will have us hooked up on Saturday morning. This time we're going cable.

The Senkaku Isrands in the East China Sea. I don't think they are even on the AE map.

The PRC claimed the airspace was an "air defense identification zone" so the USAF send a couple of BUFF's over to yank their chain. [:)]

What size airfield you think could be put there?

[witpqs]

Obviously you've never seen James Bond movies! [:D]

Isn't that a little close for comfort mate? I mean, what about when Ze Kaiser's battle cruiser squadrons come to pay a visit?

That was Hartlepool and points north. We've got Southsea Castle to protect us. And those strange forts out in the oggin. Plus Palmerston's follies.

Hory crap! That is really cool. Judging from the brick that must date to the 19th century or earlier...and then perhaps retrofitted with concrete? Also, according to the video the women there are fairly attractive.
