I just got my as kicked in pool. Go figure. After 20 years of military instruction, could I win? Actually the girl I play is gonna give me a lesson. She has pretty good English etiquite (pool). God, the misinterpretations in the R.P.
I'm watching an argument. Not the kind you think. Not a "Lady" for sale. But some cat and his wife. He's sounds Italian. What the hell is he doing here?... I don't know. What the hell am I doing here, more importantly. This couple they do not argue over price for sex or "comfort", so much as what will we do this week ,baby. Will they go home? and I mean HOME.
I'm really looking for the cohesive element necessary to this place. Dream on. Perhaps Angeles used to be Tiajuana on steroids. No more. The tech here is better than Manilla, with its provincial dominated public.
OK kids its 540 am, some German just threw his bill cup @ me. He is insulted that I asked him if he was Suisse or German.
After he asked me about California surfing!
Can the Deutsch be as ugly as the Americans? Of course, assholes are International.
So I am a tough son of a bitch, right? Been to 121st and Normandy -South Central LA, home of the bodybag. - Not any more, this guy just bought all the girls in the bar drinks. My "style", or status just took a major hit. So I ask if he wants some? Now this guy doesn't know me. Its all show here, for the "status" and the prestige of a threat. In Ermita, Manilla I would get a response. Not Angeles City; Locals only and they know the score.
Shower and off to Margeritteville. Probably THE safest place in Angeles, well @ least for me. It has that Santa Barbara kind of feel. No one is pushing anything...Hell, no one's pushing anything in Angeles period! Seriously, just watch the world and what's left of Pinataubo go by.
Finishing my beer at Margaritteville. Notice, my friends, the girls or "ladies" are not easy or stupid. The American serviceman is gone. You gotta be charming, respectful, the girl has got to like you.. Getting married and going to Jersey, or San Antonio is not a priority. Things are actually Quite normal here. Maybe Pinataubo's eruption cleansed this place." Back to the bowels of the earth and all that." 
Angeles former home of the " Clark AFB". The jeepney parking lot is full, its the weekend and there is no traffic. Pinataubo ash is still under your feet. And in your clothes and your pores.
How many Camaro's? Thats right Z28's. Straight chevy 350 V-8's. Maybe [left by] some officer before the pullout and the eruption. Hurst shifter, great mags. Haven't seen any racing...YET. Plenty of BSA's toting sidecars for transport. And a Triumph just passed us. A 750 Bonneville no less. Gimmee great British bikes and I promise you I can make them into delivery [vehicles] for Pizza hut. Utilitarianism is not lost here.

Hello! Use The Message Board
The mgmt/owners, as per usual, filter you heavily. In an economy built on an 80% human work-force exportation, the flow is from contract workers abroad. Hell, if all the Philippinos came home at the same time the island would sink. Everyone is hustling, no offense, its just the only way to gain a stand.
