No.... but I was part of a 20 Mule Team (they needed another @ss).

TPBM likes to sing in the shower....

Yea.... About the time (April 2, 1961) I walked off the side of the hanger
deck of the USS Essex, at 0210, on a moonless night in the Caribbean.
Got picked up by the USS Barry and was held for ransom ! My skipper
coughed up five gallons of ice cream and I was helo'd back in the morning.

TPBM doesn't like to swim in the ocean

Charles
 
Isn't that some kind of tradition in the USN, to kidnap a sailor from another ship and hold him for a ransom like ice cream?? But please, do tell more....

TPBM can do magic.
 
I gotta plead the 5th.... But, the Navy has a tradition..... not of kidnapping,
but of pulling people out of the drink (especially airman) and getting a
reward of ice cream for their services. It's usually considered paying a
ransom, All tin cans did it, donno about subs during WW-II.

TPBM can't wait for the week-end to get here.... has BIG plans.

Charles
 
Yes.... I did..... in Tripoli..... and have pictures to prove it.

TPBM will tell us what they were doing when they heard a plane crashed
into one of the Twin Towers, this day in 2001.

Charles
 
I was working, heard it on the radio. We thought it was a small accident, but unfortunately it wasn't so.

TPBM and everyone else will pray for all inocent souls lost in terrorist actions
 
I was working as a tech for Perry Buick. The Service Manager called all
of us into the customer's lounge to watch it on TV. Nothing was done in the
shop for at least 30 minutes. My first words were, Holy Sh!t !!!

TPBM has moments of flatulence......
