A Shout Out to Some We “Know and Love”

by Hondo••25

A few guys we all “know and love” keep trying to find me.  So I thought I’d help them out.

Here’s where I’m hanging my hat (so to speak) for a while, “guys”.   Come on by and say, “Hi.”

 

 

And as they might say here: “Hé DRG – aller forniquer vous-mêmes, connards!”   (For a rough translation, see this definitely NSFW clip.)

  3. OH OHHH MR KOTTER CAN I PILE ON??

    Since I hear that someone is also under the impression that I’m AWOL, I am here. Here’s a photo of me and a buddy. As you can see, we have PLENTY of extra room. We’re working on our TOP SECRET Chocolate recipes.
    You can come visit.

    2. Yes. We’re fixing SoS for supper, with green beans, dilled carrots, cornbread w/lots of butter, chocolate mousse, and a testy little white wine. (That is testy, not TASTY.)

  4. And here I was, hoping that would be the Ft. Myers airport.

    Christ, he’d blow out his catheter if that were the case.

    And I’m also on my way to Casa de SEA out of Chicago. The TSA guys looked a little confused about the coconuts and drywall screws in my carryon bag, until I mentioned they were for the DRG. That’s when I got the smile and knowing nod. And fast tracked through the line.

    Seriously. 5 minutes to get through security at O’Hare? That’s got to be some sort of record.

    1. The five minute delay to get through TSA has to do with the previous week’s 3.5-hour delay to do the same thing. Too many people missed their flights, too many had to stay overnight, etc., so someone got fired.

  5. Come on! Everyone knows that Hondo is only 40 miles West of Slammintonio.

    What a bunch of goobers….

  6. So, you like viewing the movies in a theater chain in Quebec province, in the United States of Canadia?

    1. Rockford has gone downhill even more since the last time I was here. I can remember when it was farmland from the Clock Tower Inn all the way to Belvedere. Not any more. Oh and for the DRG: Go eat a lemon.

      1. Go eat a lemon? Learn something every day.

        I thought they partied with lemons.

        1. Do NOT Google that unless you have a VERY strong stomach.

          You have been warned.

  9. Can’t tell them where you are because, like, I really don’t know where you are or who you are, Hondo. And I wouldn’t tell them even if I did know either of those things.

    What I can share with them is that you are NOT Alan Shepard and you are not currently occupying the space station. (Actually, you might be either of those, but that discussion is for another time.) You are NOT OWB and you do not live at casa OWB. THAT one I absolutely do know for sure. (Or do I?)

    And you most likely are NOT in residence at 1600 PA Ave.

    1. Most definitely not the late RADM Alan Shepard, OWB. He was a helluva guy, though.

      I’d have loved to have worked/served with or for him.

      1. Completely concur with that, Hondo. Think I met him once or twice, but that rememberer thing is fading in and out today. Or maybe I just think it is. (It’s been a very long week.)

        Heard so great stories from some folks who knew him very well.

  10. I read, recently, of the DRG naming someone, as someone whom they are not. Then in conversation with one of the wrongly named people, I have learned that the DRG is in for a real “Shit your pants” surprise on this. As Gomer Pyle so loved to say: “Surprise, surprise.”.

  11. I am Iron Man!

    I am Spartacus!

    I am Don De Long Dong!

    I am Hondo! Or is it Honda?

    1. HMCS, I (didn’t) serve with Hondo. I (don’t) know Hondo. Hondo is not yet a friend of mine. You, HMCS, are no Hondo.

  12. Holy Crapola… does it ever Fing stop !!!!!!
    LMFAO !!!!!!!

    I AM HONDO !!!!!!
    or is that
    R2D2 !!!!!!!!
