Things I Learned While I Was on Liberty in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and Really, Really Drunk - Part 1

(A Guest Post by Harvey of Bad Example)

Since T1G is concerned that he's not posting enough to keep his site traffic up, he asked me if I could toss up a few little somethings to keep the readers coming back.

Blogfathering is a LOT more responsibility than I thought it was gonna be.

Last time he asked me to do this, I told a bunch of sea stories about the wonders of Pattaya Beach, Thailand.

So I thought I'd stay with that theme.

I figure since T1G was a Marine, he shoulda hopped on a Carrier like me to see these exotic sights himself, but since he missed out, I owe it to him as a fellow veteran to bring him up to speed.

After this, he'll be able to lie his way through a good sea story as straight-faced as a natural-born Navy man.

Now, some of these are pictures are a bit... spicy... in which case I'll slap a warning on it and put it in the extended entry. If anyone is truly offended, I'll hide it behind a link to protect the innocent.

Nothing dirty, it's just that Brazillians were 15 years ahead of the curve on skimpy beachwear.

Anyway, I'll start you out gentle...


LESSON 1:

If you forget your beach towel, don't worry, because within 10 minutes of sitting down at a cafe, some street vendor will wander by with an armload, and you can talk him down to $10 American.

Yes, I still have it.

Zonker - Who says I didn't? :-)

Eric - Ya know, Rio was actually several months after Pattaya Beach, so I wouldn't be surprised if he turned up.

Possibly using a Portuguese-sounding name...

Christ, it looks like a bad tattoo.
