Went with the Wife to see the play "Miss Saigon" a week ago. I was amazed at how realistic the bar and girl scenes were in the play. I was single and young then, and chose not to tell her "it really was like that."

I could say a lot more, but anybody who spent time in Saigon back then knows what i am talking about. You could be on the roof of the "Ramada", with girl number 22 on your arm, looking outover the distant 122 mm rockets impact, the occasional Spooky fire assaults, and here i was, up about every two months from the Delta, watching this. I used to think that it was just an unreal, surreal experience.

This is a "G" rated forum, i'll stop now.

But i could write a book......
