But your story dates you; post 9/11, you have to exit the ferry and wait a half hour for the next one. On the other hand, they have a nice, big fish tank to entertain you for 2.5 of those minutes. I thought people would be asking me about P4P in Haiti. It costs a dollar, don't wear a condom, wear a space suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw him at a pier show. He claimed to be older than most of the pebbles on the beach. Of course it was a pebble beach. That's why people go to Benidorm -even without the Ken Dodd draw.

Hey, I used to do that too! They don't call it Richmond anymore, do they? I remember when they named it that, but I can't recall hearing anybody saying it. Somewhere in the middle of it is this Buddhist museum, I think it was private. Made for a interesting day-trip date. Also the Statue of Liberty island. I realized everyone gets off the ferry, goes directly to the statue, then comes out and gets back on a ferry. NO ONE (in 1970s) walked around the island, not even the park police. So I'd find a peaceful spot on the edge of the water, smoke a joint and take in the view. I did that a number of times. The Narrows bridge took forever to build. In the distant future, when all we have has turned to dust and a new civilization emerges, archeologists are going to find what's left of that bridge's foundation and find all those human remains the mobs threw into the cement, and they are going to puzzle over the strange funeral practices of the ancient peoples. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
