There's a Chinatown, a lot of "shoppes," beautiful shoreline vistas,
interesting flora, mountains, ferries, according to my wife.



I'm sure it'll be beautiful. They supposedly have an awesome place.


Forget that Chinese food and get over to Hope, about 100 miles east.
That's where they filmed "First Blood" which introduced Rambo.
And where Trautman said to Teasle,
"Vagrancy wasn't it? That's gonna look real good on his grave stone in
Arlington: Here lies John Rambo, winner of the Congressional Medal of
Honor, survivor of countless incursions behind enemy lines. Killed for
vagrancy in Jerkwater, USA."

Not that it's really Jerkwater, just saying...

Are you using the internets again or did that come from the deep
recesses of Vic's past?

I looked up the quote to get it right, but I remember it well enough.
Good flick.
I remember a lot of movie and poetry lines and often relate them to
current events.
Right now I'm thinking of "Go on home to your kids, Herb."
