"Oriental" = rugs and stuffI was at the 4 Corners monument thing out West one morning at dawn. Totally alone !
Decided to do my morning run doing the 4 State circle for 45 minutes.
A Oriental couple , think Chinks , finally drove up. Both all masked up , in the middle of the desert. Every time I got closer than 50 yds. they got in their car.
According to their epicanthal eye folds above their masks they was Chinks , Full Blown Rice-A- Ronis !
Peanut butter whisky, Godiva liqueur, and half and half will make a believer of of any pessimist (even Sirhr) and in one recent experience, a female friend, (whom I thought was out of my league) excused herself and what appeared to be a thong was seen in her purse when she went for her phone.
I put the PI on my dream sheet when I was in tech school. First duty station was Kadena AB, Okinawa, Japan. Got close.
Claven,
Being of asian decent, I find that hilarious!

After all the time I spent in Asia I can usually tell "country of origin" for people, just by looking at their face. If they still speak their native language it removes all doubt.No harm intended ….I have been all over SE Asia and I can usually tell the nationality of the people….especially reading the eyes . Always was on the lookout for the occasional and rare round eye.
Have you ever tried the Bigfoot challenge? Drink 6 bigfoots in one hour. Good luck.Do you mean this?

Looks like heaven to me!!!! You did good!!!! Only have 15 acres here in Texas, but our little piece of heaven!
I stayed with them all weekend, caught the COD back to ship. They asked what would I like to do ? Told them a LONG Hollywood shower and some fruit ! Took a hour long soak in the whirlpool like tub , and drank LOTS of fresh squeezed Orange juice …heavy on the Vodka.
Had a blast and made some future memories. I saw him a few times after we both got out.
I would have been proud to have served in your commands !!
Good stuff. Thanks for your service, and Welcome Home. We had hundreds of people show up at the airports to welcome us home from the sand boxes; you had hundreds of people show up at the airport(s) to protest your service. Hopefully one day soon our real history will be shown to the masses.You were there way after my time. My Cousin was the Base Commander at Kadena from 71 through 73 I think. His name was Tom Benagh. He passed away in 2018.
When I was on the Constellation (CVA 64) we left Yankee Station in Vietnam heading home via a Yokosuka Japan port call on our way. I was a E4 at the time and I requested flying off to Kadena on Ships business. Had the chit denied at first and I told them I had kin folk stationed there. When the request went up the chain , I explained my cuz was the BC. Once that was confirmed, it was OK’ed and I flew off on the COD and landed at Kadena. I was the lowest rated person standing at the terminal with some Officers , who flew off the same time. Standing there when
when he and his wife my cuz too.. They
drove up in his Air Force blue sedan and that got there attention.
Everyone couldn’t figure out why …until she got out and hugged me. Then I saluted him, then he hugged me ! I Got my bag in the trunk and drove off. Had lots of head’s shaking wondering WTF was going on ?
Some great times looking back !
Yes, Yes I have.
Yeah, the Narwhal is good, just can’t find it at local retailers.Do you mean this?

I understand it was liquid dish soap but Dawn didn’t cause that burn.
Jalapeño and pineapple are delicious together on a big juicy burger.Actually, my comment was meant to imply that a jalapeño either negates a fruit or enhances it.
I never figgered on it being a berry.
Thanks to the Hide, my IQ has gone up 2%.
Well, 2% added to my outstanding ASVAB score...
Congratulations!
I spent 6 months with an A4 Marine squadron at Kadina some were 1982-83.........a couple of things I remember well were the SR-71's, and the food at the chow hall.......the AF has by far the best facilities in the military............
