Guys, this is the actual last broadcast of Jane Dornacker (The nurse in The Right Stuff) as the helicopter she was broadcasting from, crashed into the Hudson River. She had survived a previous helicopter crash just a few months earlier...

Rooster, the magnificent, so great to hear from you my friend....I have not been posting very much lately...No definite reason, just my biorhythms (dated term) have been directed elsewhere.

In the late 90's, 7 good friends and myself, went on a 2 week golfing adventure into Baja California, and other areas of lower Mexico......We had a small caravan of SUVs' going down the long black highways of Mexico.

A couple of the guys were married (no wives allowed on trip) so I spoke to their wives and assured them it was just golfing....It would give them a chance to miss each other, and when they returned it would be an epic romantic reunion....

We played a variety of gambling games, such as Nassau, Triple 6 Nassau, and a couple more. Also, on every par 4 or 5, each of us was in for $10 for longest drive, and 5 bucks for shortest number of putts....If a guy couldn't long drive too well, he usually could putt, so it almost always balanced out......almost that is.

Our fail safe system, so no one lost too much money each day, was each days winner had to pick up the bar tab and pay the (big) tip at dinner.....Some days it paid not to win....LOL.

The only negative happenings of the long trip was a couple of the guys forgot about the hazards of Mexican water....One guy swung very hard to get his drive out for the bucks for the longest drive, but "Montezuma's Revenge" took hold and he made a mess on himself....He could not stop[ passing gas...Of course, we could not stop laughing at his misfortune....He was easy money for a few days after that...

GT, I have spent many moments reading your stories and I just wanted to say I enjoy them all. So glad you started this thread, it’s a great excursion from everything else. Always wishing you the best, I’ve often thought If I could sit down with any of the posters on this site and get to know them better I think I would enjoy my time with you. Maybe one day, in the meanwhile I like your style dude.
