I'm sorry to say but I did it. Don't really want to go into details about it but I figured that I'd come clean haha. I'm out here in Oki and I'm sure that you guys that have been out here know exactly what I'm talking about. Gate 2, same lady been doing it for probably 20yrs. Gives me the chills thinking about it.

No way dude, you nasty. If your talking about the same banana I know about, that's foul. Does she still do the peso show? Is the club "smiles" still open? That might have been PI, but I remember down south outside of Gate 2 in OKI we found a lady that did that also. It was all good until one of the guys busted out his zippo when she was in the back room and then made the stack of coins very hot, very hot. And when she went to pick them up, whew she was p*ssed. That's a good way to remove unwanted hair. Mama san booted us,,,ha ha hahahahaha
I have to go to work, let me think,,,,,

Yeah still the same lady, but it's club presidente or something like that. Don't really remember to much that night. ALOT more happened on that stage but yeah, too inappropriate to share lol. I'm not proud of it by any means. I had to sanitize my mouth with allloooottttt of alcohol afterwards. I still make sure to clean it a few times a week and every weekend thoroughly.

I got my clubs confused, I think it was club presidente or something, Smiles, that was a club in the Barrio in PI. That club, and I'll try to keep it as clean as possible. You sat down at a round table with a table cloth and 8 guys or so, then some girl would sneak under the table and,,,, take care of business and then the guy who smiled first bought the round. Where else can you have that kind of good clean fun? I miss PI and Oki

GOD that stuff is just the worset but its funny because he was our saco but god. after that i stuck to the habu sake and beer never tried anything new after that curiousity didnt kill the cat but sure in hell made him puke and feel like crap the next day.

anyone out there eat any bal-loot? Not sure how to spell it
We used to go to that club and shout bring on the coconut show ... bring on the pineapple show. Covey you aint the first Marine to eat one of those pieces of banana. Speaking of absinthe ... there was a club on the main drag of Kinville from the gate it would be down the hill and on the right hand side. They had a blanket for a door and played music so loud you could hear it on base and most of the inside was wall papered with dollar bills. I can't remember the name of it. Anyway they served a drink called a rainbow and absinthe was the top layer. You would start it on fire then clap your hands to put it out then drink it. Make you numb and dumb in a hurry. I liked the yakisoba more than the fried rice.
thewookie
10-11-07, 12:19 PM
he might be the first guy to admit it on the Internet, the world where everything is googleable, you might not want to apply for the Secret Service, son. Just kidding. Absinthe, that was the stuff, supposedly it had something illegal in it? There was a rumor, I dunno, I know the first time I did that stuff it was at Club Shangri la(sp?), it was that place as you came out of the main gate it was directly or straight ahead down the road into sinville, a real dive. You had to walk across some gang plank and then downstairs to talk to the idiot behind the the slotted door in order to get in. Any way as a nice new cherry boy, I eagerly did a shot of that stuff and right away, I left the table and went straight to the head. I ran/hustled into the head and in this place they had those old 5 foot tall individual p*ssers, the tall ones where you almost can't miss just gotta let it hang. Any way I came around the corner in the head and I spied a peice of porcelain and I just let it go, projectile vomited right into the hopper. I always did well on those target recognition & engagement drills! But being a good PFC and just like after you fall on a bike, I went out and had another one of those shots of absinthe and I felt fine that time, no problem,,haha. We never learn.
How about those chicken leg things they sold just outside the gate, those must have been the biggest chickens in the world, I mean the whole thigh leg bone things were huge, ain't no chickens that big, not unless they're on HGH or CGH (haha)
And the corn dogs, mmmm, good stuff, and the monkey meat (now I'm getting back to the PI)
How about Bull-loot, who had some of that, I did,,,,

I remember the rainbow my buddys face caught fire, he did not clap first to put the fire out. He just shot it fire and all. It was so freaking funny seeing him slapping himself. That was 23 years ago holly crap that was a long time ago. My brother (real brother) would find my buddy and me and walk us back to camp. Man I miss those days.

anyone remember california chicken outside the main gate of iwakuni? took forever to get it i think they butchered and friend the chicken there but probably the best damn chicken, though ive never been sober eating it so who knows.
I remember that club you are talking about wook. They used to have a snake show there. I don't know what kinda snake it was but it was a big freakin snake with it's lips sewed shut and the whole time the girl was dancing around with it it was trying like hell to bite her but it couldn't cause its lips were sewn shut.

10-11-07, 12:36 PM
see that's the thing too, when did you ever eat anything off base sober? Not that often, maybe some TRC, but for the most part stuff you'd eat down those back alleys had to be cleansed with some alcohol.
What the heck was the name of that drink they had that came in a giant bowl with a bunch of straws. From the gate you would not go down the hill but take a right and there was a club right there that served it. It was $40 or something to order and was something like 5 gallons.

Holy cow the purple haze. Club on Gate 2 street served it and mamasan would play cards with you while you drank it. You feel just fine till you try to get out of your chair. Next morning you hopefully were talking to ralph otherwise you and ralph would be best friends at PT.

Was it a Scorpion bowl? I remember that club. We used to get wrecked on that bowl and then walk around being idiots, screwing with the Shore Patrol. Man did we get those poor SP guys mad at us a lot, they used to chase us, we'd yell "Ice cream", imagine that some Sailors chasing drunk Marines around sinville, what were they craaazy. But soon enough the base General got tired of hearing about it and assigned Marines from our battalion to "shore duty" with SP in sinville, to keep us in check, it didn't really work. How I wasn't busted for something back then is amazing to me!

And bigdog, you mean the grass ninja's? We didn't have any mamsans that I remember in the barracks in Oki, but we had a few nice little house mouses in PI. Man they used to put a nasty crease in my jeans right in the front, the cowboys (Marines from down south) loved it but I didn't really like the look. They could spit shine boots like nobody I've ever seen. We used to pour diesel on them to see if they could make them shine (diesel on boots doesn't polish very well, almost never until you find a house mouse:)

Sorry wookie you might be right but all I can remember is calling them mamasan. This is a freaking great sight! Love talking to fellow Marines!
Possibly before your time wook but we had a mamasan and a sew sew lady in every barracks. Mamasan did laundry and sew sew could patch anything and tailor all uniforms ... I think it was a dollar a day for mamasan and 5 bucks for any kind of sewing with sew sew. Somewhere along the lines it was discovered that you give mammasan 2 pairs of blue jeans and get one back perfectly pressed and washed the other one went dissappear. They canked the mammasans soon after.

They did do a hell of a job on the uniforms! Stiff as a 2x4
Sew Sew could even cut the buttons off of your cammie trousers and sew the pockets down as perfectly pressed. Cut the sleeves off your cammies and put a perfect roll on there then sew it down. Dress blues she could put on liberty cuffs. Lift the fold on your sleeve then put an extra button so you could fold it back then embroider dragons or mermaids or EGA or whatever you wanted underneath .... you could fold it back and button to display your liberty cuffs.

You know come to think of it I think I remember them now, they stuffed those ladies or whomever into a small gear locker room in the barracks. And they ran it out of there, yeah I remember. I don't remember the laundry lady in Oki but I remember the sewing lady, they called her sew sew, right? "Go see sew sew Marine and UnFock your uniforms" , I think I heard that!

Our 1stsgt of E co was a mean little cuss. We had a junk on the bunk inspection for our Blt comander who was at the time LTCol Pace. 1st Sgt was on his last tour and wanted to have a little fun with some of his Marines. He was the last one in the inspection line and he stoped right in front of me nose to nose. He said there was a spot on my brass and he wanted to fix it, he fixed it all right. A fist in the gut, not hard but hard enough to get your attention. I did nothing just looked at him and smiled. When the inspection was over he came over to me again and asked if I was OK and like a dumb a** I said yes and sure enough he did it again. He just walked away laughing his A** off!. Hell I miss that 1stSgt!

Not sure if they used to call it something different or not...but right now their called party bowls. Something like 14 different types of liqueurs in the bowl. First time I did one I was done for, now it's just fruit punch lol. Gotta love kin.

Beer machines loved those beer machines!
The beer Machine in the barracks was stuck on Dr. Pepper ... if you didn't know ahead of time about this and started shovelling quarters in you were getting a Dr. Pepper no matter what. The trick was to hold down the miller lite button while stuffing change in then you got a beer instead a can of carbonated prune juice.
That reminds me ... that same machine if you put a single nickle in and pressed a button you got a drink ... beer pop whatever. Put a quarter in and you had to put 3 more quarters in to get your beverage of choice. I think it had been rocked one too many times and was finally bolted to the floor.
Back to the Philipenes ... if you watch closely in Full Metal Jacket during the scene where the guy gets his camera stolen you will recognize downtown Olongapo city. They replaced the statue with a traffic cop for the movie.

That was Ma sigh sigh Blvd (sp) right? I remember, when you walked across the sh*t river and took a right you were on Gordon Street, if you stayed straight that was Ma sigh sigh? Won't ever forget those streets. Some of the back alleys I couldn't always tell where I was, but on those two streets it was like I was back on the block. Man I love being able to remember some of that stuff with people. I can't really talk about that place much around here, except my buddy Josh who was there also. You had or have to be there (and I still don't know if it's the same place with the base closed in Ologapo, is something in Manila still open?) I know the ships pull in but,,, well you have to go to really understand. I always said I was like Donald Trump with $20 bucks in my hand. $20 bucks was a lot of pescos that went a long way!

I have a great, well, it's really not great but it's a conversation starter when I'm in shorts. I got tatotoed in PI by Dom David, supposedly he was a big time artist/celeb during Vietnam, maybe some of the older guys remember the name? It was suppoosed to be a 10" dragon, but I was sha-hit-faced and it ended up looking like a Gecko, it's on my upper thigh. But the best part or the braging right is in the fact that he did it with bamboo, one by one, dot by dot, that was his style and the "legend". (or so they told me) I can't begin to tell you how much it hurt but I was slamming down Sam Miguels and by the time he was done I was bleeding and so drunk that I could care less. My buddy Josh that I've mentioned before he got BFD on the underside of his lip, so when he flips his lip down it reads BFD- Big Fuzking Deal His wife loves it when he shows off that one, good conversation starter for boring family events!

However in my defense...I had run out of money and needed cab money to get back to base and the crowd got together $50 for me to go up on stage...Went broke that weekend taking out a Marine who didn't have any money and all he did was watch movies in the barracks.

No! Say it isn't true! ;) I am smiling, but think I threw up a little in my mouth as well....
lol at Purple Haze...the main ingredients are opium and embalming fluid are they not? I didn't participate!
I think it was absinthe and fermaldihyde. Couple of them made you feel like superman and as said early the next day you felt like your brain had been ran over by a truck and replaced with scrambled eggs.
LeonardLawrence
10-12-07, 12:36 AM
Formaldehyde...
Used in embalming fluids, making particle boards and veneers, etc, etc.
I remember we were warned away from it, because it might cause a urinalysis issue, but can't remember if the warning was the Formaldehyde...or opium now. I tried to do a google, but only came up with warm and fuzzy drinks, that do a disservice to the Okinawa drink.
Thank Bulkyker for jogging the memory.
One ice cube of questionable origins in it . Tasted like black licorice.
I believe the OB beer in Korea and the Redhorse beer in the Philipenes both contained Formaldehyde. The warning was that absinthe was made using some kind of opiate but I never saw anyone pop on the pee pee test from drinking it.

I STILL to this day have no recollection of how I got all the way to MY room in the barracks that night.
Memories.....................or lack of - HAHAHAHA!

There was this one bar in town You had to go up some stairs it was on the left side and down the hill a little bit. They had this large bottle and I meen large bottle on the floor behind the bar. I asked the mamasan what was in it she said it was stronger then sake and that it was not for me. WHAT THE! So yes you guessed it told her to give me a shot, you talk about fire holly crap that hurt. An hour went by and my buddy tells her to get another shot. Don't know how we got back but the fire watch was not very happy with us. Seems that my buddy and I missed the bowl a few times when we where tried to get that stuff out of us.

That's it opium, they said don't drink the absinthe because you'd pop. And my first drink was absinthe. They told us the first night in Oki not to go off base because we didn't have a SOFA brief, so I was off base by sundown that night drinking absinthe,haha
My 4th and final trip to Oki I went out on the town one night and returned to discover my door was locked and I had no key. I vigorously and loudly pounded on the door shouting at the top of my lungs Symcheck you better open this door before I stomp a mud hole in you. I made more noise than a herd of elephants in there and the duty came down to see what the problem was. I was angry and stupid drunk and raising enough hell to wake the dead. I finally went around back and took the screen out and got in my room. No Symcheck in sight. No wonder he didn't answer the door LOL. Hour or so later I'm awakened by some guy pounding on the door kicking the walls shouting at the top of his lungs Quinn open this ****ing door or I'm gonna pound a mud hole in you. You guessed it .... Symcheck. We kept the duty very busy that night.
The next morning .... maybe 3 hours later in formation headed for training in Guam the plt Sgt said you march em and then the lieutenant said sing cadance too. There is no way I had slept off that much alcohol but ok. Yo righty Lo ... I said your left your left your left right left. Brain is freaking pounding. Put us on a C-130 and gave me a bucket.

While I was in PI the only real rule was to be home in time and ready to make the daily pt, usually a run from the lower to upper MEF camp. No cinderella libo or anything stupid like that, just be back in the AM to make the run, simple. Well, let me tell you what an azzkicker those runs were, plus the smell that came off the back off the platoon was horrible. Wow. I remember many times when I didn't think I could make it, and then I'd hear someone yell, "get in the vehicle and you get no libo tonight", and somehow, I would make the run, everyone did. I was there right after Mt. Pinatubo went off, a month or so later, that was crazy, the soot/ash was 2 feet deep in most area's. And then I made the bonehead move of volunteering for JEST. When the mountain blew the soot was so deep in the jungle that it had dropped all, or a lot of the triple canopy jungle above because of the weight of the soot and ash. That made that school even more hell. But the libo was the best! It was all worth it!
I have to go to a bar and get sha-hit-faced and watch my Red Sox whoop some Indian tail! Go Sox!
Reminds of a term maybe only used in infantry. Swoop .... when you got a swoop it was early libbo.

Who the h**l needs a buzz to do that? I always thought it was just a natural thing to do to have more fun! Besides, as long as it wasn't Suzie Rottencrotch it is always worth checking out! :evilgrin:
By the way Bulkyker, we were using "swoop" back in 69 to describe a long distance liberty run from Cherry Point!

How many piles of salt where on the doorsteps of the bar you inhabited in Kin Ville? Were you ever told why? Question is for all who were there.

I hope I didn't offend anyone with my comments recently with regards to the pilipenes, any wives :angel: girlfriends;) ,dependants:beer: , or other family members who may be of that fine ethnicity. My comments were wrong and inappropriate and I do not condone, nor do I still engage in wild sex parties and 3Somes and casual sex with unknown participants, or for that matter, frankly, (and I NEVER did this) pay for sex with any females met in other countries while serving my country. I black out a lot when drinking?
I have no kids, zero STD's, none, because I always made love with a glove.
That's all
