A couple parts of houston when I was buying dope seemed fairly dangerous. Luckily most of the bangers and thugs i was getting my shit from adopted me as the token white friend,  as i was a former marine and metalhead and I didnt even try to pretend to be one of them or throw down with them like the poser wiggers they all ripped off and took advantage of, and flat beat a couple of them because they acted like bitches and the thugs picked up on it.

Probably helped that I also told one of them as long as we did business, if he did right by me, id take care of him and bring him lots of business,, but if he fucked me id kill him. Looking back I certainly wouldnt have, but he believed me, and it helped since they all thought I was slightly crazy anyway. They got a kick out of this crazy white guy that strolled right into their neighborhood and kicked it with them like nothing.

I remember seeing one wigger kid get his ass robbed and beat because he was trying to act all gangster and throw down with the black dudes, they called him all kinds of shit and beat his ass while I was sitting on the couch thinking "fuck, man im glad these guys like me".

I asked one of them about that one time, he told me that they wouldn't do that to me because I was straight up and I was who I was and didnt try to act like someone I wasnt, and they respected me for that.

Crazy shit.

Thats one of the biggest reasons I laugh at people like joey Swoll, I wonder if they have any idea how the people thwyre imitating would react if they showed up in their 'hood.

Seeing as I am the most dangerous man in the world means anywhere I'm currently at is the most dangerous place.

My son-in-law did three tours in Iraq and one short one in Afghanistan over the past 15 years. He doesn't talk about it much. I'm guessing he was in some pretty dangerous situations, much more so than most of us. Likewise, my son visits installations in various African countries several times a year where he and his team are provided military escort service for safety purposes. Not much sightseeing going on during these trips.

- Was bracketed and nearly detained by a Muslim group in east Africa.  Got back to the tourist area through side alleys and backyards.

- Frequent travels through Little Haiti and Liberty City in Miami, as a bail bondsman trainee and jewelry transporter. Gawd!

- Jackson, Mississippi.  Had to swap Uhaul trailers while transporting my classic Corvette.  The swap occurred in front of a housing project.  You could actually SEE the shift in movements as the inhabitants got more and more curious seeing the white guy furiously securing his car to get the fuck outta there. 

- post-Katrina New Orleans, boots on ground a week after the hurricane happened as private security detail.  Did a month of duty for a decent paycheck.

We was comin' back from the island of Tinian to Leyte. We'd just delivered the bomb. The Hiroshima bomb. Eleven hundred men went into the water. Vessel went down in 12 minutes. Didn't see the first shark for about a half-hour. Tiger. 13-footer. You know how you know that in the water? You can tell by lookin' from the dorsal to the tail.

What we didn't know, was that our bomb mission was so secret, no distress signal had been sent. They didn't even list us overdue for a week. Very first light, sharks come cruisin' by, so we formed ourselves into tight groups. It was sorta like you see in the calendars, you know the infantry squares in the old calendars like the Battle of Waterloo and the idea was the shark come to the nearest man, that man he starts poundin' and hollerin' and sometimes that shark, he go away ... but sometimes he wouldn't go away.

Sometimes that shark looks right at ya. Right into your eyes. And the thing about a shark is he's got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll's eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn't even seem to be livin', 'til he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then ... ah, then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin'. The ocean turns red, and despite all your poundin' and your hollerin' those sharks come in and they rip you to pieces. You know by the end of that first dawn, lost a hundred men. I don't know how many sharks there were, maybe a thousand. I do know how many men, they averaged six an hour.

Thursday mornin', I bumped into a friend of mine, Herbie Robinson from Cleveland. Baseball player. Boson's mate. I thought he was asleep. I reached over to wake him up. He bobbed up, down in the water, he was like a kinda top. Upended. Well, he'd been bitten in half below the waist. At noon on the fifth day, a Lockheed Ventura swung in low and he spotted us, a young pilot, anyway he spotted us and a few hours later a big ol' fat PBY come down and started to pick us up. You know that was the time I was most frightened. Waitin' for my turn. I'll never put on a lifejacket again. So, eleven hundred men went into the water. 316 men come out, the sharks took the rest, June the 29th, 1945.

Anyway, we delivered the bomb.

People really do pass gas when they use crack cocaine.  Almost nonstop.  I think they should teach this to kids - although "butt burps" are funny to kids, so it might be more of a selling point for the use of crack, who knows.

So, one more selling point to the use of crack/recreational drugs: epic flatulence. Terrific.

Yeah, I have a really strong sense of smell, so I always pick on scents like that.  I'll never do drugs.  that path isn't a good one.  I can't imagine crackheads get laid all that much.

I saw those pictures of the burnt remains of our soldiers hanging from the bridge in Fallujah and it about gave me PTSD, and that was in the safety of my own home on a little laptop screen. I can't even imagine being there.  :-X

My son-in-law whose MOS was forward observer was stationed in Mosul where the mess hall was blown up. Fortunately, he was sleeping at the time and not eating or he'd probably be gone. Unfortunately, he helped clean of the mess of body parts of some of his comrades. I don't ask him for details. He doesn't need to relive that experience anymore often than he probably already does.

Best part of the movie.  However, I was very surprised that Speilberg did not catch this mistake... it was July when this happened, not June.  Also, 317 men survived, not 316.
