    How do I get this angel to come by, and does she carry tools to work on ones that go in?

    Gunny, what happens in Olongapo, DOESN'T stay in Olongapo. Every Marine that went through the Phillipines learned that. The bar in Episode 4 of Starwars would just be a nice family inn, there.

    You people are all missing the main point here: where does Nighthawk find this stuff?

    That's the funniest thing I've ever read.

    Anne, could I get a recording of you telling this story in your "broad northern accent"?

    I also Olongapo but I don't remember anything of that nature. Gunny, if that was part of your doing, why would you ever confess to being a part of it?

    The original picture does look strange, but having had a careful look I am pretty sure the person on the gurney is in fact female.
    She has a large tum, scarred down the middle with what looks like a cæsarean cut. But that is definitely not a backside.
    Heaven knows what the Oompaloompahs and the bunnies were doing there, but I feel sorry for the woman.
    Regards,

    Hey Chief, I never said I was a part of it. But you guys know, there were things seen over there that would be unbeliveable to a lot of folks.

    Now that I think about it, that man(?) in the picture could have been in the beauty contest crossing the equator aboard ship.

    After working Fire-EMS in a San Antonio Metro Dept for 10 years all I have to say is-You can't make this stuff up. I think I transported his/her sister at one time. For humanity's sake I would have covered him/her up with a yellow blanket to spare all.

    an old school Shellback ceremony would go a long way to explain the oompaloompas AND the bunnies...

    Yes...yes it would.
