LizardKing Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 As a UAL pilot friend was fond of saying about flying there from the States: "14 hours of boredom followed by 5 minutes of sheer fuckin' terror!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted October 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 I had a friend who was jumped by several Zeros and shot down when flying a P-40 over Hong Kong in 1944. (Fortunately, the Chinese got to him before the Japs did.) He told me he returned to HK for the first time almost exactly 50 years later. Seeing the waterfront looking exactly as it had - followed by that landing - brought it all back to him. The way the airline pilot was flying, he kept looking out of the window to see if more Japs were on their tail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous God Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 I almost "retired" to Christchurch at the old age of 31, great job offer, great very small "Uni" city to live in, but I knew that I would never do anything after moving there other than eventually retire, hopefully with a Maori wife I would have had to import from the north island. Thanksfully I didn't take the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coss Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Some of the skinny islanders are gorgeous! There's a joke - Why do pretty island girls have a rip cord between their legs - for when they get married - you pull the cord and they inflate like a life raft. 555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted October 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 I knew a fellow who married a gorgeous Samoan. He told her, "If you ever get fat, I'm divorcing you." Whenever she'd put on a bit, he'd say "... watch it, you've been warned." She'd immediately diet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
