RETIREMENT IN ALASKA......

[rooter]

Wanna' retire in Alaska?



Tom had been in the liquor business for 25 years.

Finally sick of the stress he quits his job and buys 50
acres of land

in Alaska as far from humanity as possible.

He sees the postman once a week and gets groceries once a
month.

Otherwise it's total peace and quiet.

After six months or so of almost total isolation, someone
knocks on

his door. He opens it and a huge, bearded man is standing
there.

"Name' s Cliff, your neighbor from forty miles up the road.
Having a

Christmas party Friday night. Thought you might like to
come. About 5 O'clock."

Great", says Tom, "after six months out here I'm ready to
meet some

local folks. Thank you

As Cliff is leaving, he stops. "Got ta warn you. Be some
drinking'."

"Not a problem" says Tom. "After 25 years in the business,
I can drink

with the best of 'em".

Again, the big man starts to leave and stops. "More 'n'
likely gonna

be some fightin' too."

"Well, I get along with people, I'll be all right. I'll be
there.

Thanks again."

"More'n likely be some wild sex, too,"

"Now that's really not a problem" says Tom, warming to the
idea. "I've

been all alone for six months! I'll definitely be there.

By the way, what should I wear?"

"Don't much matter, just gonna be the two of us."

You are startin' to scare me Pops, you thinkin' of goin' over to the 'dark side'???

Sounds like the neighbors I had when I worked in Grand Marais, MN. A town of 1500 with a gay bar. Hippies are a scary bunch.

Rooter, that is a GOOD one!

We lived in Fairbanks for five years back in the latter 60's. I got transfered there in the service, took my discharge there, and stayed until the flood drove us out.

A friend of mine at the base, when new to the area, went down to a bar in town and commenced to tie one on. Met a gal there, and got friendly with her. Sitting in a booth, he got his hand on her knee, and commenced to move North from there.
Until he encountered uncontrovertable evidence that she was a he.
He had come to the only gay bar in town.
We NEVER let him live that one down!!

Military Quote of the Day....................


"When I joined the military it was illegal to be homosexual,

then it became optional.

I'm getting out before it becomes mandatory."
