18 FEET is still one heck of a sight bigger than my pet gator that I had as a child. That was back they sold them on Fisherman's wharf in Monterey. Never did figure what we would have done with if it hadn't become ill and died after 18 months. Even the it was between 18 to twenty two inches long with a mouth full of sharp nasties.

Spent a little time in Darwin back in 82 83 time frame. The best people I ever met were Aussies. If I had a job I would be down under in half a hart beat.. We were invited to a party and our host said what ever you do, don't mix your labels. The Capt said don't try and keep up with the Aussies. I started on white label, they ran out... Green, they ran out.... Blue, you guessed it ended on Cattlemen s XXXX. I think I did anyway. There there was loud banging and my head hurt really bad. We were in the barracks at Darwin. It had a screen door and as each went out they let it slam. I opened my eyes and could not see anything. Oh the blanket is over my head. "The next SOB that slams that GD door will be dead after I feel better" I says. They all cheered, "Don's not dead" they said. I felt like I should be. It took 8 hours and a beer to feel better.
