TIDBITS "Harry, I came across your site while looking for pictures of pretty filipinas and your website fit the bill. I've read quite a bit about the great personalities of filipinas and their "delikadesa" (sp?). Anyway, I am divorced and the last thing I want is another girl from the US and the attitude that comes with it. So I'm seriously considering trying to find a nice filipina via a dating site or by coming to the PI? Given your experience, am I on the right track?" ( Dear M - Do not use a dating site. Come and visit the PI, Angeles City, and get a feel for the place, get used to the customs and the girls here. After a bit of experience then you can check out dating sites. A general answer to your question, by all means, yes, date a Filipina, they are wonderful women and not age conscious. Just be careful, especially when going out with bar girls because they are very good at the fabrication game. They will say anything you want to hear and many have no honor at all. But, if you are careful, take your time, use your brain and can sift through many words of bullshit you might find that girl you are looking for. Just enjoy the "dating game" first so you can recognize a good lady when she arrives.) I received this tidbit of information from that wandering traveler Jerry Prinz, a fellow VFW member here in Angeles City, last month. I do not get to travel much so I appreciate reports that could be informative and helpful to the readers of this column. It sure would be nice if everything about the ACR-I card is positive and so far I'm a bit optimistic. "Just got back from 17 days in Thailand and no problems at either airport,
coming or going. When I got to Immigration in Manila Int. it was chockablock
with people. Never seen so many. There was an Immigration guy standing at the
entrance and I asked him if the ACR-I card line was still in the same place. He
said yes, you can go around all those people and go to the far right window.
Piece of cake, dirty looks and all. Well, here we go again, an update from Jerry. This goes along with what I had heard earlier this year in that the Immigration folks were thinking about a five year expiration date. Of course, my new card does not have an expiration date so I hope they do not come up with a plan to charge me another fifty dollars to come up with such date. You never know about those creative folks at Immigration.
It looks like Immigration MAY, and I emphasize the word MAY, have finally come up with a policy on renewal of ACR-I cards. Upon renewal, we have been getting new cards back with the Expiration Date block blank. They told me last month that the expiration was INDEFINITE, because they had not yet decided on the length or cost of renewal. Buddy McGuire, our friendly neighborhood insurance man went to Swaggy this month, paid P4200 I believe, since he had already paid his Annual Reporting Fee (The horse paid P5,500 at the International Travel which seems to be the most expensive route to go). He just got it back, and I personally sighted it yesterday. His Expiration Date block is not blank but shows that it expires 12 APR 2012. Five years. Weather this is a typo, somebody screwed up or it is the real deal, I don't know. But just maybe they are finally getting their act together. Time will tell, when somebody else gets a renewed card back. Jerry Believe it or not those vendors on Fields Ave that are selling boxes of Viagra and Cialis are breaking the law and can be arrested or, at the very least, have their wares confiscated by the police. Normally, a foreigner buying a box or two is not hassled by the law but there was one case in which a foreigner was caught in the act of buying approximately 400 boxes of Viagra boxed up in 18 large boxes which kind of made him look like a dealer. He dealt with a vendor that frequents Fields Ave and worked a deal in which he only had to pay P58 a box and agreed to meet him at 9 PM near the Butterfly Club at 9 PM to close the deal. All went well, he paid the vendor P23,250 cash and took possession of the goods. He put them in his car and shortly thereafter had a visit from the police. The police, in this instance, were reasonable and only confiscated the supply of Viagra but it could have been much worse. Fortunately the matter was settled at the Tourist Assistance Center after the PNP Lt. called an ACTA Trustee to come and help settle the matter. I mention this only to alert visitors to this City and even Expats living here that one should not trust these vendors in the entertainment area. When a deal sounds too good to be true, in this town you are about to be screwed. Be careful folks. It was a Saturday night at approximately 2230 hours and she was driving alone, along Perimeter Road. Traffic was heavy and she was brought to a stand still near the ABC Hotel when a stranger jumped into the passenger side of her car and put a knife to her throat and told her to drive. He threatened to kill her if she did not follow his instructions. Needless to say, Ms X was terrified. He forced her to drive on base (Clark) and took her to an isolated spot where he got her out of the car, pushed her to the ground and ripped off her clothes from the waist down. He kept a knife to her throat all this time. He did not cover his face so the victim was sure that he intended to kill her. When he mounted her, before the act of rape could be accomplished a noise was heard that indicated a guard was coming and the attacker was distracted. At this time the victim was able to throw him off her and scream for help. The rapist ran for the victims car and drove off and managed to get out of the Friendship gate just as the guard was being notified. He did notice that the car made a left turn onto Perimeter Road. Later, the vehicle was found abandoned in front of a Club on Perimeter Road. Now, this low life was a foreigner and by his accent the victim feels that he is a New Zealander (Kiwi). I was hoping to have the artists sketch of this guy for identification purposes but it was not forwarded to me as promised. There are many things that this lady could have done to get assistance, i.e., she drove the car through the Friendship Gate where the local PNP have a station. She realized that she could have just swerved to the right, into the station and screamed for help but like most victims, she was terrified and did not think of all this until after the fact. This is a terrible experience for a woman to go through and it makes me very angry that it was a foreigner who is still walking the streets somewhere. We are not sure of the Nationality, the Kiwi part was only a guess but will this person surface again and maybe kill someone? The impression of the victim was that the police did not really care that much since it was a foreigner attacking another foreigner but there are a bunch of motorcycle riders that are after this guys ass but I suspect that he will never be caught. Priscilla the Horse has told me that she always drives with her doors locked but now she will be even more alert. Thanks to the gutsy lady for reporting this to me and wanting to get the message out, maybe a lot more women will be extra alert and stay safe.
American Legion Post 123 now has free wireless internet service available for your use. Just bring in your laptop computer to avail of this service. You don't even have to be a member! This will give you something to do while waiting for your drinks and meals. Drop on by and get on the internet, thanks to David Butler (who set it up). (About time, but I must mention that the Hotel La Casa and Blue Boar Inn has had this service for over a year now and, smile, we have better looking ladies to serve you) Be careful with your bill when enjoying a late night or early morning at the Doll House. Double check to make sure you are not being charged for some items you did not drink or in the case below, charged for services you did not agree to. It should not take a police presence to get management to see the errors of their way. "A certain Mr. Dean H, 30 years old, presently billeted at the Wild Orchid Resort appeared personally at this office to complain that the mamasan and manager of Dollhouse forced him to pay the amount of Php2,400.00 for an EWR that he did not commit to. On his statement, he just drank beer and he did not go with any girl. He did not want any argument with the bar personnel, so he paid the said amount aside from the beer that he drank. After that, he immediately went to the PNP Tourist Assistance Center office to report on what happened. Police Aide Oliver Longga accompanied him to PNP Station 4 along with two other Police Aides. Police personnel from Station 4 accompanied Mr. Henshey to the Dollhouse at which time the amount of PhP2,400.00 was returned to him by the mamasan and the manager of Dollhouse." In your April newsletter you requested info on Cambodia. I just made a trip there in February to visit a fellow Nevadan and I wrote up something for Go2phil. I would rather you don't mention my name, but feel free to include as much as you want. I was pleasantly surprised on a recent trip to Phnom Penh this past February. I arrived via Bangkok Thailand on an Air Asia flight. The tickets cost only $60 but the taxes were $65! You can get a tourist visa upon arrival at the airport in Phnom Penh for $20, but you have to have one passport sized photo to attach to the form. Oh by the way the economy is based on dollars so there is no need to exchange any money if you remain in Phnom Penh. You will even receive dollar change down to the pocket change level where they will give you local currency (Riel) for the remainder, which comes in handy for tips. Phnom Penh is a pleasant city sitting on the shores of the Mekong river. The streets and sidewalks are wide, and it is relatively safe to walk the streets at night. I stayed on Rue 172 and walked three quarters of a kilometer late at night for four nights in a row with no mishaps whatsoever. There are many expat bars and restaurants. Typical meals cost less than $10. Local beers are $1-2. There were three different ranges of hotels right on Rue 172. A fan room with cable TV and cold water shower is $4, right across the street from Shanghai Bar is a hotel with Aircon, Cable TV, and hot shower for $6, and my hotel had a brand new remote control AC, remote controlled cable TV, hot water shower, and minifrig for $10. From any of these hotels you could walk to most downtown bars in less than ten minutes, or take a omnipresent “moto” or motorcycle for a buck. One must mention Martini’s since it is such an institution. It has moved three times, so its present location is rather far from most of the other bars. It is in the neighborhood of S-21. To get there traveling south you turn right from Monivong Blvd onto Rue 360 and take the first right on Rue 105 its only one block north. It is a large outdoor bar with no roof over the center. There is a large TV/movie screen where recent movies are projected on one wall. This is the best bar for an early freelance rendezvous. Girls here will go for $20 all night, but some may start the negotiation at $30. The girls are also known to want to leave after a short time when you paid for a long time. But as I said before, I suggest you just pay them. One of my favorite restaurants was California 2. My favorite item was the Baja Fish Tacos, which don’t have the creamy white sauce but are quite tasty at $3.50 for three tacos. They also have a bottomless cup of coffee here, which was the only restaurant that I found with one. Another bar with great food is Rose bar. They have an extensive menu. My favorite item was the fish filets with saffron cream sauce. The food at Martini’s and Sharkey’s is of average quality at an average price. Sharkey’s has a much bigger menu than Martini’s. If you want a beach vacation also you might want to check out Sihanoukville, which is about four hours by bus from Phnom Penh. The Expat hotel and bar area is up on a hill, Victory Hill, about a km from the ocean. The nicer beach hotels are on Ochheuteal Beach, which is about 4-5 km away, so if you want to get around you would probably need a vehicle there, although there are many motos available to transport you. So in closing I heartily recommend a trip to Cambodia. A question for a good mate of mine, Andy Odell. Is it true that you have gotten back with one Adel Lusang who made your life so difficult while you were here?
A couple dining at the VFW encountered a difficult situation. The girlfriend of the veteran ordered a chicken salad plate. When it was delivered, after one bite she discovered they had served a tuna salad plate instead. Regretfully, the lady is extremely allergic to tuna fish and became ill. She was rushed to the hospital for treatment. When the customer complained, initially, the waitress and supervisor were indifferent and their attitude upset the customer. The VFW manager was not present at this time. The next day was a different story. The customer wrote "The VFW committee met this AM - discipline taken against those determined not to have followed procedures - medical expenses reimbursed plus some $ for pain and suffering - extremely apologetic and expressed determination to avoid re-occurrence - all-in-all: very quick redress of grievances - kudos for way this was handled." (This incident was regrettable and the initial response was out of line but the professionalism, concern and response by the VFW committee and the manager the next day was outstanding. Well done guys!) When that Subic-Clark toll road is finally open to traffic one of the first places I will visit is the Ocean Adventure in Subic. The reason I am so interested is because I met two very interesting guys, Tim and Scott that together were instrumental in putting this place together. They visited the Blue Boar Inn for a few drinks one night and the conversation was interesting, fun, entertaining, informative and full of great stories. These guys train whales, porpoises, and other animals and have worked with movie producers which over the years have provided them the ability to relate many hilarious and interesting stories. I was not aware that the Ocean Adventure site in Subic also provided hotel accommodation right fronting on one of the best beaches in Subic. I won't dwell on this anymore because I want you to check out the website www.oceanadventure.com.ph which will provide all the details you need. My recommendation, visit the Ocean Adventure but make it a two or three day holiday and enjoy the entire facilities available. TAPS I was informed that one AKC Bergh, from Sundsvalls, Sweden, 63 years old passed away early Sunday morning, 1 Apr 07. AKC had lived here in the Philippines for 20 years and had made many friends in that time. Regretfully, he fell down the stairs at the SM Mall and never fully recovered. He became weaker and weaker until the gates of heaven opened for him. I was saddened to learn that Edward W. "Bill" Dunlap of Ocean Shirts fame passed away on 14 Apr 07 in Houston, Texas. He lost his fight with cancer and is survived by wife Lorna and daughter Laura, he was 62 years old. Bill came to the Philippines in 1986 and founded "Ocean Shirts" in 1987. I remember sitting with Bill quite a few years ago and enjoyed his stories of how he came to create "Ocean Shirts" and the hard work he had to put in to get it off the ground and make it such a success. That damn evil disease of cancer just takes too many good folks away from us and I pray that medical research eventually finds a cure for most forms of cancer but I fear that it may not happen in my lifetime. Bill Dunlap did good and he will be long remembered through his wonderfully created shirts. (Will, thanks for passing this sad news on to me).
THE GARFIELD GANG
For such a small bar Garfields, on Perimeter Road, has a hell of a lot of ladies working for them. Every once in a while they like me to show off their latest crop of sweet waitresses. I don't mind doing this because I kind of like this bar, even though it is off the beaten track for Fields Ave punters it has the distinction of being right in the middle of the action for Perimeter Road. This bit of a pub does not have dancing girls but their waitresses are very, very friendly. Of course, not all the ladies pictured here are beauties and I do spot a couple of chubby rice eaters but all in all the selection is very admirable. Garfields does most of their business in late afternoon and early evening so a lot of tourists may miss out but it is a very popular place for the local expats to gather. They have air-conditioned comfort, cold beer and hot women so take the time to stop by and get acquainted. WHERE IS T-TIMES KEVIN? I wrote about T-Times Kevin last month and now, as so often happens in this town, more information comes to the surface of how one man took advantage of so many. I have no regrets in providing this information for one and all to read so that it will be a warning to those who live and invest in this town that it is not always the Filipino that may try to take advantage of you. Beware of that fellow expat with a smile and smooth tongue who is really a rattlesnake in disguise, ready to bite you in the ass and your pocketbook. Over the years I have met and heard about many of those rattlesnakes and do not think for one moment that Angeles City, today, is rattlesnake free. Talk to some folks that recently, were bitten by the well known "Mr. Ticket". Horse, I notice from your last issue that Kevin from T Times bar has left owing Mo P60,000...well he isn't the only one. Kevin has disappeared owing personal money loans ranging from P20,000 up to P400,000. My own being nearly P100,000. He managed to spin us all a sad tale and abuse our kindness and willingness to help. His tales of woe were all a pack of lies. He borrowed money from different people around Angeles and managed to keep the loans a secret from each other. Legal advice has been sought as to the finding of Kevin and hopefully the pay back of all his debts. The Office Of The Lupong Tagapamaya has written up the Certification Of File Action against Kevin. The files against him are numerous and his name at the Malabanias Barangay Council is very well known.  After numerous appearance summons from
all the complainants, in which Kevin evaded every appearance, Kevin sold his
bar and fled with the money, leaving behind some very angry people. It has
also come to light he is wanted in Guam for monies owing and also fled the
US owing over $100,000. We found the money he borrowed was spent up on
his craving for female company, drinking and the front for a fake picture
of being able to pay us all back. Even when he gave us the story he was flat
broke, he was spotted in several bars surrounded by girls with drinks, drunk
out of his mind. He was evicted from the Wobbly Boot Hotel due to the fact
the owner was fed up with guys turning up looking for Kevin and their money. So Horse warn everyone if approached
by 'Kevin the Con-Man' , you will have more luck taking P100,000 and putting
it on a roulette table and getting your money back than placing one peso
in the palm of this man's hand. I hope the people that are owed money get to
bring this man to justice as he just crawls around the world looking for his
next prey. He can't hide for ever!!!!!!
I am pleased to report that the NBI from Manila visited Angeles City to inspect some clubs and they did follow proper procedure by coordinating with the City Director prior to making the inspections. They visited the Pink Lady Club in the Oasis Compound and also one other Club, Filipino owned. At the second location they did take some ladies to Manila for further investigation. If they inspect an ACTA member Club in a future visit there should not be any problem because of ACTA's scheduled monthly inspections in which compliance with all City requirements are closely looked at. THE 24 HOUR MASSAGE It used to be located next to T-Times but Alan Schlaadt (Kiwi) sold the rights to the building to the new T-Times owner but retained the name for his use. I guess that means we can expect an expansion of the T-Times Club but have not checked that out yet. Anyway, Alan will relocate the 24 Hour Massage to his new location on Zepplin Street, Hensonville, across the street from the old Silver Bullet Bar. Alan is doing it up big time as in addition to the massage operation he will be offering a Club in which you can play pool (He will be in the Friday league), restaurant with a full menu, darts, cable TV, home deliveries for food, trike for free pick-up and delivery to his place but it will cost you P50 for the return trip home. Local drinks will be P45 and draft beer will be offered at P40. Oh yes, he will be employing some dancers and GRO's as well. Long and short communication sessions will be offered at a reasonable cost. I do believe he will be opening some time in mid-May but that is not definite. Alan told me he had a lot of regular customers for the 24 hour massage and he definitely wanted to get the word out as to where it will be located. MYSTERY FACE
Now, you are wondering, how old is she, what is her name, what is her educational background, does she have a boyfriend and where can you find her? Ah, that is the rub - if I tell you all that then she is no longer a mystery. I can assure you that she works in Angeles City and does not have much free time for a social life. Is she available for courtship? Hee Hee, I have no idea mate, that is another part of the mystery! FATHER AND SON
KLUB CLASS
But, my suggestion to Richard was that I would prefer the GRO's in mini-skirts and not in their normal street clothes in which many were just in shirt and Jeans. The GRO's, the night I was there spent a lot of time on the dance floor and I would have liked to have seen some nice legs instead of seeing some dressed as if they just came from the farm. Richard said he would consider this suggestion so I will try to make it up those stairs again to see if he changed anything. By the way, the GRO's on board were friendly, as were all the staff and it is a comfortable environment. I never did like the Pick-up as it was just too cavernous for me and regretfully, I did feel a bit old there. At Klub Class I still felt old but in a comfortable way and nobody seemed to notice. For sure I will visit this Club again as soon as my arthritic knees allow me to make the climb up and also allow me to reach the safety of the street without falling on my ass. For those of you in better shape than me, please make the effort to check out this "Klub" I sort of think you will like it. Oh yes, before I forget, the local drinks are P85, Ladies Drinks are P150 and that other item is P1,300 which I guess is in line with the rest of Fields Ave. I WOULD IF I COULD I asked them what age bracket would they accept if a serious contender
appeared on the scene and they indicted a 45 to 50 year old would be acceptable.
But of course, they told me they would make an exception for an old 69 year old
horse. Now guys, seriously, what American or Australian 21 year old women
would would even consider going out with anyone over 50 years old without
calling the police first? Ah, Nine and Teresa, let your imaginations go
wild. It would be like consuming a double ice cream cone on a very hot day
or even sitting between them and enjoying their attention and smiles would be a
treat as well. These two sisters would be worth whatever ladies drinks you
bought them. Remember though, get to Cherry's early or get in line.
TOURISTS OF THE MONTH
10th ANNIVERSARY FOR THE VFW
ANGELES CITY BUSINESSMEN'S LUNCHEON
THE ORCHID INN BOYS DO IT AGAIN!
They put their heads together, held a brain session, then someone came up with a bright idea. Let's do something with the front parking area! Then, bingo - the "Wild Delicatessen" and Coffee Shop was born. Man, I was surprised all to hell as I walked down A. Santos Street heading to the Wild Orchid to partake of my favorite fried rice with pineapple meal and suddenly I saw this new Deli staring me in the eye. Wow! I had to check it out even though it was late. I went in and did not want to leave, not only because it was rather unique but because the air-conditioning was pumping out some very cool air. Outside, they had put some nice tables and chairs in a relaxing garden environment. I plan to go there one afternoon or night and relax with a cup of coffee and check out all the action across the street. By the way, I have to talk to Ron W. and find out what the plans are for the area just behind the Wild Orchid pool area heading down the street towards Johnny's. If you remember that warehouse style building housed the short lived Platinum Club and the Ministry of Music owned by Big Bill of the Winchester Club fame. It did not last too long but the picture to the left showed two employees of that club and I sure do wonder where the hell they are now. Man, Subic is getting one hell of a face life with Mo there building his hotels, Wild Orchid Group building a class place, the Arizona Hotel upgrading, and so much more. There are more and more expats moving to Subic to get away from Angeles City. But, not me, I don't care, Angeles City is the place for me but I do look forward to when I can drive to Subic in 40 minutes but maybe not as early as Dec. I read where the Japanese have fallen 15% behind the completion schedule and the President Gloria has told them to get their act together.

This month should be an interesting one, not only because it is "Mother's
Day" time again but because it is election time and here in Angeles City we
will be waiting to find out who will be our new Mayor. You might say,
"who cares" as many of you are tourists who do not stay here on a permanent
basis and many who do live here permanently might think the same way.
But the outcome of this election is important to all residents of this City
and to any tourists that might be coming here. You see, the Mayor is
the one that that sets the tone for this City and he or she will also have a
great deal of influence on the businesses in the entertainment district.
Which direction Fields Ave, Perimeter Road and Friendship entertainment
establishments go in the future will be subject to the overall objectives of
the new Mayor. We, of course, hope for a positive and cooperative
future for all concerned. Now, any folks running for political
positions anywhere in the world there is one common denominator for success
and that is MONEY. It is no different here in the Philippines where
there is now a feeding frenzy for money for all the different campaigns.
It doesn't matter how, where or why they get the money, as long as there is
enough. Favors are called in, alliances are made, and pressures build
up. Secret deals are made and it is all interesting and exciting.
Most folks would want nothing to do with it but it takes a lot of guts and
dedication to run for office here for all too often one might end up dead as
emotions build up. In this country it appears that one only need to be
an actor or actress to win office. One can be a communist leader, a
rebel, or some have made a fortune illegally such as being a drug lord at
one time or even been a kingpin in the illegal numbers game called jueteng.
Hell, even the "Pacman" Manny Pacquio wants to run for Congress with
absolutely no political experience at all. Variety is the name of the
game! who should one vote for? It is as hard to figure out as it is to guess
who will win American Idol this season. The important item to remember
during this month of May is that the heat is up and the beer is cold.
All the clubs are running the air-conditioners at full blast and the beat
goes on. As for me, I think I will just chill out at the "Klub Class"
the newest Club to open last month, located over the Bunny Ranch. More
about that later.
True Story - short version - American lives in Thailand
- builds up good bank account there - can't find the right girl - comes to
Angeles City with intent to find girl to marry - After one week finds girl in
bar - meets his criteria - makes friends with a Filipino who can help him get
married - six weeks later - married by some Mayor in Province - Mayor tells him
to come back in one month for final whatever - American gives new wife (by the
way, she was not very good looking) the pin number of bank account in Thailand -
open joint bank account here - stupid husband comes home one evening - no wife -
no Filipino friend around either - they both skipped out - bank account nearly
drained - joint account here nearly drained - husband mad - searches - gets
police assistance - files case in courts - gets help from CIDG personnel -
nearly the end of story. Late March - Tourist Assistance Center personnel
contact me - American has problem with Immigration on 7th St - they kept his
passport and were talking about putting him in jail - Who is the American? - the
stupid husband returns! Needs my assistance - he tells me he was upset
because the Immigration folks charged him the P500 express fee without telling
him before hand - he argued with them - all for a lousy P500. Stupid me, I
go to Immigration to try and help - am in shorts - no entry - went home, changed
pants - went back - talked to the VERY nice, gentle lady in charge who was very
patient - I was told that the stupid husband was yelling, arguing and accusing
the Immigration folks of being corrupt. Stupid is as Stupid does again!
I talk with the officer in charge for 30 minutes and explain how stupid this guy
really is and the situation with his "lovely wife" that no doubt affected his
mental state. Nice lady agreed to think about it over the weekend and
would not send the guy to jail, which the Commissioner in Manila had already
given her permission to do. She would be ready to talk to him on the
following Monday. I go out feeling that I have done a good deed here and
tell the American, let me call him "Bruce" that the lady in charge will not send
him to jail but will be willing to talk to him on Monday and all he had to do,
really, was be a bit apologetic and I was sure he would get his passport back.
Good old boy Bruce did not thank me for my time and effort, hell no, instead he
is pissed because he had to wait until Monday. He stated "hell Monday, now
I can't go to see my wife in the Province" - I am shocked - "what, you want to
see your wife, the one that ran away with a Filipino, stole your money and you
have a court case against her?" Bruce - "Duh, yeah, well I talked to some people
and they told me that she was probably under the influence of the Filipino guy"
- "OK fine, do me a favor, do not go to the Tourist Assistance Center again and
please, forget you know me, do not call again, here is your stop, get out,
goodbye and good luck!" By the way, the nice lady from Immigration called
me on Tuesday and our friend Bruce had not shown his face yet and his visa was
running out. I have no idea what the final outcome was and I don't care.

The Angeles City Hash House Harriers are hosting their 1500th run on
Saturday and Sunday, 5-6 May and this will be a biggie. I have been
told that the famous "Kalbo" will be here for the event along with his Mrs
and twenty odd kids or so. Kalbo was the owner of the Birds of
Paradise and was a pioneer of the AC Hash. The cost for the two day
event will be P2,000 for the men and P1600 for the ladies which in this day
of equal opportunity I can't understand the price difference. I have
observed many Hash events and found that many of the women outrun, out drink
and out sing the men and when the opportunity is there, out eat them as
well. I do not know the times these runs kick off so contact the
Anchorage Inn at E-mail:
