In order to keep out of trouble, let me clarify this a little. I am no longer in the Navy, this is not about a port call, we are not at Crazy Eddie's in Point Loma. I am after that thingie that swims and lives in the water and comes up river for what ever reason. I am just glad somebody did not suggest Dupont spinners as they are rather hard to come by. However if I could get by for as little as I used to in the past I would really really be happy. In Olongapo a good night was about $5 and a rip snorter with all the trimmings could be had for around $20. I must admit that night down in Panama at the west end of the canal was a bit on expensive side and no "strripers" around, dang cab ride was $40 just for a mile but oh was I sick and left him a present. 18, Rum and the last one I chugged was a bamboo style glass with no coke and no ice. Still cannot stand the smell or taste of rum and that was back in 66. Getting hammered in the afternoon in an air condidition bar in the summer down at the Panama Canal, not a good idea.
