    95% of the time, we are both in the dark or light.

    I spent a month on East Africa time last year and will do the same this year. That's an 8 hour difference from EST and a 7 hour difference from EDST. You want to re-work that percentage?

    I'll just re-work the geography. I spent two weeks last year in the Philippines (11-hour time difference) and three weeks in Thailand (12-hour time difference), during which you and Jimmy were both on Eastern Standard time ... in the North American winter ...

    Fatal error: Assuming that me and Jimmy can occupy the same space at the same time. Part of your 11/12 hour TZ difference I was on Atlantic time and Jimmy was on EST. I crossed the International Date Line a half dozen times before the 70's were over. In the nets of a C-130 with a TSW-7 Tactical ATC tower on a mobilizer and 6 months of WRSK strapped onto pallets. Oh yeah and the 40'antenna mast on another mobilizer. "A" bags, "C" bags, MRE's, LSR's, rifles and ammo and a .38 on my hip. The .38 wasn't for shooting back, it was the KBC order.

    What you call "mongering" we used to call R&R and in the exact same places but before the gott daam civilians got there and fucked it all up.

    Did the OP ever get his necessary advice yet? Nearly 100 posts in, just asking.

    Maybe at least he got a bead on where to go for a slice of pepperoni and sausage?

    We can be on opposite sides of the world, yet standing in the same spot.

    I don't think the OP ever came back. Can you blame them? They're probably in Midtown Manhattan right now, chowing down on a slice or two thinking "dafuq is wrong with those guys?"
