I can’t give a comparison, first time here. Sure hope, the traffic can’t get any worse That was the first and only time I got chumped on anything related to Tết. Hanoi seemed to be more crowded because of Tết because there was massive, and I mean massive amount of Tết merch for sale. But that was a week ago and Tết is on the 22nd. At airport now, first trip to Asia was mind blowing. Memories of a lifetime. But my mind has turned to enchiladas and a cheeseburger.

Just kidding Chopper, I appreciate the recommendation. Traffic in District 1 can be a beat down and my Airbnb is close to District 4, so I chose this place. It was good! I was the only westerner around but the peeps were cool.

@Chopper well you mother fucker…

Yep, the bunker was pretty cool

Saigon…shit. I’m still only in Saigon. Well, I figured this might happen. Mixed emotions about today. Went to the former presidential palace, scene of the iconic last chopper out of Vietnam in ‘75. today… Now it’s called the Reunification Palace. Fascinating visit, lots of interesting history of the events leading fall of South Vietnam. Then I went to the War Remnants Museum. Pretty sobering and graphic, war truly is Hell. Felt a little awkward being an American even though I wasn’t old enough to be a part of the conflict. So I get outside and a double amputee (arms) comes up to me and asks me where I’m from. He probably was old enough to fight but certainly could have been a child during the war. After I tell him I’m from the US he invites me to shake his nub. I do and then the sales pitch. He wants me to buy two books from him, I don’t want to. I offer to give him some Đóng (money you sick fuckers) but he says he doesn’t want my donation, he wants me to buy the books. So I give him $20 US (he wanted $40). I need a beer at this point so I go to a craft beer joint about a six minute walk away and sip on a pale ale. Time to go back to my Airbnb. So I book a Grab scooter (Grab is Vietnamese Uber). Now unless you’ve been to SE Asia, it’s hard to appreciate how insane the traffic is. Most people travel by scooters and conventional traffic laws here in the US don’t mean shit in Năm. Red lights? Stopping is only a suggestion. Driving on the sidewalk? Sure, why not! When I got to Hanoi last week and rode on the back of a scooter for the first time, I was scared shitless at first. Driver said “Wait till you get to HCMC!” He was right… I get on the scooter, holding the books I didn’t want to buy in one hand, and grabbing the back of the seat with the other hand. The helmet is too effing small and I can’t fasten it properly. After two minutes of starting and stopping abruptly in Saigon traffic, my driver t-bones another scooter and I go flying off. How I stayed on my two feet, I’ll never know. Wasn’t injured, just a mild boo boo on my right knee. My driver learned some English curse words at that point. The two drivers just sat on their scooters, staring at each other for about 10 seconds, nary a word said. Then we continued on. I didn’t leave a tip…

Sài Gòn be crazy…and

Huề

Thanks Chopper! Will keep that in mind.

So in other words, he doesn’t have enough votes… https://www.businessinsider.com/mike-lindell-says-he-has-enough-support-ronna-mcdaniel-2023-1

Train from Hà Nội to Huề…

In Hanoi, very cool place. Traffic is crazy, but I hear worst is yet to come when I get to Saigon.

“I want to apologize to all North Carolina fans…”

Hope a blow job comes with the Don Fulano...

She didn't mind "sexuality choices" being crammed down her throat when she was in the Merchant Marines.

She's got more polymers than a Formosa Plastics Plant.

I thought ANTIFA was behind the 1/6 insurrection??
