Satisficing

I’m actually liking your roof escapades at the Rite Spot On The Roof. What’s not to like? Great view and great company when you are with your main squeeze or your friends. And don’t forget the added bonus of no lady drinks to buy. Might become the new Cheers. You kinda remind me of Norm from the show. I’ll never forget this line from the show when Norm was asked, “What’s going down Normie?” He replied, “My butt cheeks on that bar stool”.(LOL) That definitely sounds like something McCrarey would say. I know, you’ll say you are Cliff Claven, the mailman, but no, you have Norm written all over you. Hey, you had a pretty good crowd the other night. If you need a bouncer for the Rite Spot when you have a large gathering let me know and I’ll send you my resume.(3 confirmed kills in Desert Storm) I’ll get those young-ins off their smartphones And finally, at the next party at the Rite Spot can you please breakout the karaoke machine and sing this for me?

Up on the Roof by The Drifters

When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just to much for me to face
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space

On the roof, it’s peaceful as can be
And there the world below can’t bother me
Let me tell you now

When I come home feelin’ tired and beat
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet
I get away from the hustling crowd
And all that rat race noise down in the street

On the roof, the only place I know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Let’s go up on the roof

At night the stars put on a show for free
And darling, you can share it all with me
I keep a telling’ you

Right smack dab in the middle of town
I’ve found a paradise that’s trouble proof
And if this world starts getting you down
There’s room enough for two

Up on the roof
Up on the roof
Oh, come on, baby
Oh, come on, honey
Everything is all right

They don’t make songs like that anymore and that’s a damn shame.

Peace Out!

Drunkin’ Grownups

Gem and her crew at a party and they are all looking at the phone. Come on guys. Unless you are looking at Long Time Gone, then carry on.

“There is a squatter shanty about halfway up. Hope everyone is okay”. Relax. Got a State Farm salesman buddy. He told me they are fine and have submitted their insurance claim already.

“The party in full swing”. So this was a swingers party?

Sign Christian up for the PI olympic team. Looks like the balance beam is his forte.

“Then the white folk began arriving”. Good thing the mayor of Boston, Michelle Wu, was not on the party planning committee.

“The Filipina table”. So now Buddy identifies as a woman?

McCrarey, you look like you are definitely two sheets to the wind in the couples pic.

I’m digging the Drunkin Grownups tee.

Peace Out!

I got the power!

For a country with a lot of LBFM’s, you sure do have a lot of Brownouts.

The Everything Burger looked good. I don’t know about the cucumber though.

Another lovely sunset.

96 beers. Uh-oh! Some DamnYankee will be singing “i Started A Joke” by the Bee Gees before the night is over.

Peace Out!

A glutton for punishment

“Apparently, I can’t get enough of a hard thing.” Followed by, “I went down on this Surfer Dude sub sandwich”.( sub sandwich equates to schlong in the gay world) Well, you finally came out of the closet. I’m sure that’s a big weight off your chest McCrarey. I am proud of you.

“Our group pretty much filled the entire Jeepney in Olangapo.” For a second there, I thought that was the California Department of Corrections bus arriving at San Quentin. Thanks for clearing that up.

“Yes, that’s me getting getting ass-kicked ten minutes into the trek.” Looks like The Streets of San Francisco minus Karl Malden(RIP) and Michael Douglas.

“A shady spot somewhere.” Everywhere in Chicago is “shady”.

“By golly, Easter Mountain is on Fire!”

“And there’s fire on the mountain
Lightening in the air
Gold in them hills and it’s waiting for me there.”

Peace Out!

Jabbed in the back

Tuesday is gone with the wind and you’re still standing. Showed her, didn’t ya?

“Always follow doctor’s orders!” Is that dude in the mirror David Bowie?

“Early leavers.” Rookies

Swan is looking good in that sundress!

McCrarey, you are a gay magnet. In fact, if I was gay I’d be all over you like white on rice. After you retired from the Hump you should have caught the bus from The Hump to Yongsan and hoofed it over to Homo Hill with resume in hand. With all those lady drink commissions and short-time encounters you’d be living in a penthouse in Gangnam with a Hyundai Genesis and driver at you beck and call.

Peace Out!

Ass kicker

You are doing great for 68.(hey that rhymes) Can be your political chant when you run for mayor of Barretto. Vote McCrarey, he’s great at 68! I’d vote for ya!

“The high life”. Lunch? Looks like the buffet at Golden Coral. I get baloney on Wonder Bread and stale Lay’s. Well, l I do get mustard on my baloney so there’s that.

“Gathering at the trailhead”. Please tell me the dude wearing the Fauci mask is joking. Right? Please.

“I welcomed Missionary Grinder back with some cookies for her KIDS”. Ya let me down McCrarey. Should have welcomed her back with a box or Trojan’s for her while you held the box and smiled for the pic.

Peace Out!

» Posted By sojuHoncho On 31/January/2024 @ 9:39 am

Goodness and light

McCrarey, here’s an idea. While your main squeeze is handing out cookies to the kids maybe you could hand out condoms to the parents. Why are dirt-poor folks having so many kids? It happens here in the States too with the encouragement of Uncle Sugar who gives more taxpayer money the more kids you have from numerous baby daddies who don’t pay a friggin dime.

Yeah, the bridge people is sad. Got all kinds of sadness in the States too. Walk around LA or San Fran or Baltimore or any other liberal-run city. All the great empires have fallen and we are witness to the fall of America.

I’ve heard of Rosy The Plumber and now we have Teri The Plumber. This gal does it all. You have quite the gem there McCrarey!

That Korean bar girl is a cutie. What bar was that and when did you give up vaping?

Peace Out!

A sweet walk homeward

Rite Spot On The Roof. 18 to party, 21 to drink! (Is there even a drinking age in the PI?)

“Apparently, school was not out like we thought”. What! Alice Cooper told me that school was out forever!

Those trike drivers ain’t playing around when it comes to smoking.

The bulgogi looks legit.

“A full moon was rising”. Watch out for those PI werewolves McCrarey.

“Swan chatting with the neighbors”. I think the conversation was something more like this: “And tell your Yankee boyfriend the next time he sings I Started a Joke by the BeeGees on the roof, we are calling the Po-Lease!

Peace Out!

» Posted By sojuHoncho On 27/January/2024 @ 9:38 am

A good one

“Climbed up this hill only to find we had taken the wrong path”. I can hear Homer Simpson now, “D’Oh!”

“Just the way I like it.” You and me both!

“I found this pretty irrigating.” I see what ya did their McCrarey. Quick-witted.

Ya can’t go wrong with Fish n Chips. Always my go-to when I can’t decide. Remember Arthur Treacher’s Fish & Chips from back in the day?

It wasn’t that long ago you were singing Linda Ronstadt’s song, “When Will I Be Loved”. Look at ya now McCrarey. Good things come to those who wait.

Beer is the glue that holds my life together.

Peace Out!

Plenty of fluids

Addendum: I forgot to add.

Go ahead and take Weiner Cutoff road McCrarey. You know the old sayin, “No Pain , No Gain”.

» Posted By sojuHoncho On 18/January/2024 @ 10:01 am

“Well I’m joking, of course”. Hold on their one second McCrarey. Your helper Terri looks like she is ready to start bawling. That seems like a very real and reasonable response upon hearing you’re not leaving us anytime soon. I’m siding with Teri despite the years of enjoyment you have given me via your blog.

“I’ve been in the 140’s and 150’s since last month”
Here’s the deal Sir John. I went to public school in New Jersey back in the 60’s and 70’s. I didn’t learn much about History and definitely not English(fuggedaboutit). I learned about the mafia and gambling. I looked at your numbers McCrarey. Looks like you are “running numbers”. And so I must adamantly add that I would like to place 50 dollars on the Lakers to win.

“My companion” Your companion is lookin sexy.

Peace Out!

» Posted By sojuHoncho On 18/January/2024 @ 9:39 am

Day is done

“Going home, Sir John?” I’ve noticed a lot of these trike drivers call you Sir John. So apparently you’ve been Knighted by the Queen and failed to disclose this, “I’m better than you now”, bogus Knight title(Sir John) to your readers. Anyway, first it was Elton John who was Knighted and now you McCrarey. Where have the standards gone to become a Knight? Probably lowered in the name of DEI or LGBTQ+++++++++++ in the case of Sir Elton John.

I was looking at that pic of you from 50 years back. Look like a roady for Marshall Tucker Band(MTB) Were you? Spartanburg not that far from Columbia.

Hey McCrarey. Those guys that operate the floater from shore to bar. That looks like a shitty job, as in floater. I hope you throw them boys a couple coins.

Nada much

Every day is Halloween when McCrarey is in town!

Probably wearing a Che Guevara t-shirt under that suit Lefty. I’m certain the general contacted military intelligence after seeing the photo. Star Palace under surveillance.

Peace Out!

A party was brewing

“head honcho” Let me be clear on this. This honcho does not give head! (Not that there’s anything wrong with that)

Peace Out!

» Posted By sojuHoncho On 14/January/2024 @ 8:37 am

“What a lucky girl”! I was thinking more along the lines of,” what a lucky guy”! Your main squeeze is looking sexy in that pic.

“The saddest thing I’ve seen in a long time”. If you really want to be saddened, take a walk through LA or San FranSicko or any other liberal city. Block after block after block of homeless. At least you don’t have to dodge human waste and used needles.

I knew it, I knew it, I knew it! From the moment you raised your left arm in a photo-op at the US embassy in Seoul, I knew you were a lefty. Drinking a dark beer even though dark beer sucks. All in the name of diversity, equity and inclusion. When it comes to beer McCrarey, I believe in meritocracy not inclusion. In fact, I penned these words last night:

“I have a dream that one day I will live in a nation where my beer will not be judged by the color of its liquid but by the content of its character”.

Peace Out!

Feeling like Royal tea

Are the groceries really duty free?

Why is the wine priced in US dollars and everything else pesos?

Turn around McCrarey, the chips and cheetos are right by your ass. I’ll take a bag of chips from the Top shelf, thank-you.

They sell bananas? I just figured you go outside and pick your own in that tropical paradise.

That receipt looks like your bar tab.

I enjoyed grocery shopping with you McCrarey. What I really enjoyed was that we didn’t have to dodge the motorized shopping carts like here in the States. The people that use them are usually grossly overweight. The very people who should be walking. When they are in front of me at checkout the cart is usually loaded with non-essential fattening foods like Yodels, Ding Dongs, those chips you had your ass all over and YooHoo, to name a few. 9 times out of 10 they pull out the food stamps credit card to pay. Which reminds me of a little tune some dude from Virginia sang:

“We got folks in the street
Ain’t got nothing to eat
And the obese milking welfare
If your 5 foot 3
And your 300 pounds
Taxes ought not to pay
For your bags of fudge rounds”

“Headed for the floater”. I have a floater here at the house. It’s been sitting in the guest bathroom toilet for 2 days.

Food looked great.

Got a good laugh from the dying guy joke. With Dementia Joe running this country into the ground I can always use a laugh. Thank-You McCrarey.

Peace Out!

Hey, a Shakeys in the PI. If you have a Der Wienerschnitzel there, I’m headed your way.

Good and sweet

Yer gettin better at that fake smile McCrarey, keep it up.

Cockfight? I’m in the flyweight division. Just once in my lifetime I want to see a vagina fight. Ringside, preferably.

“If it holds me, it will hold her”. Hold on their pardner. Maybe when you crossed the bridge you compromised the structural integrity of it. From now on, ladies first.

“After a quick pee, I had to play catch- up”. Hell, for a second there, I thought that was you laying in the grass.

Would have been funny if the sign said, Ben & Jerry’s Eatery.

My Korean sucks but i do know Unnie means older sister. Is that a korean-owned corndog stand?

If you were Dementia Joe, when you came through the front door of the bar after going to the rest room you would be forgiven for getting lost. Anyways, your main squeeze reaction made me think of this ole Elvis goody:

Suspicious Minds:

So if an old friend I know
Stops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?
Here we go again
Asking where I’ve been

We can’t go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can’t build our dreams
On suspicious minds

Thank ya, thank ya very much. Soju has left the building.

Peace Out!

Bitch walk

Addendum: “Ee” becomes “We” and “Yonsan” becomes “Yongsan”. Sorry, I started the New Year festivities early.

» Posted By sojuHoncho On 01/January/2024 @ 8:01 am

Very good on the punctuation McCrarey, cause I believe “Bitch, (comma) walk”, has a whole different meaning then “Bitch Walk”. Then what do i know, I went to public school in New Jersey.(don’t tell anyone)

That’s a nice snowy Korea pic. Whereabouts what that shot taken?

Are we going to have to start calling you Richard(Dick)McCrarey instead of John McCrarey? Ah, it happens to the best of us. I’ve been a Richard so many times I’ve considered legally changing my first name.

Your 2024 resolution is no resolution. At least you’re honest. Ee could use an honest guy like you in Congress. For me McCray, in 2024 I will drink no more. No less either.

Happy New Year John! And Maligayang Basong Taon to your lovely companion and your support staff. Hey, its like you’re still working at Yonsan, you still have a staff.

Peace Out!

Being neighborly

Come on now McCrarey, you left a little tidbit out on the caption below the pic of your new table with your buds. I think you meant to say, “And after the hike Gary and Ed help me initiate my rooftop table with some beers, chicken nuggets and a game of strip poker”(not that there’s anything wrong with that)

A fly on the muffin. Hell, I thought that was a raisin. If you had offered me a muffin, that’s the one I’d have picked. In my defense, at my last eye exam the doc said I was developing cataracts. It sucks getting old.

McCrarey’s getting one of them music machines for his rooftop and I’m your neighbor, I’ll be sleeping down at the Greyhound bus station.

And lastly, you mentioned at the beginning of your blog how you traversed through the slums in yer neck of the woods and everyone was friendly. Try traversing through the inner-city slums of these not-so United States. You’ll leave in a body bag. So isn’t that interesting. I live in the land of the free but really I cannot travel freely. I remember my time in the ROK. Anytime, anywhere, drunk or sober I was not afraid to walk around. There are places in the city I live in here in America that I wouldn’t go in the daytime. And it hasn’t gotten any better under Dementia Joe. Oh well, i got my 9mm and I live in a constitutional-carry state, so there’s that.

Peace Out!

That’s the way I like it

When a white man flashes the peace sign in a photo it’s a clear indicator he’s been in Asia too long. Richard Nixon loved it though, didn’t he?

“Easter’s ass side”. Baby got back!

I don’t know why but every time I see Waltermart I think of Walter Matthau. I see that they were tryin to get something close to Walmart but weird to me.

Well, what’s your verdict on the newest culinary experience in town?

“I always give the boys a few minutes of leash freedom”. Kris Kristoferson said, “freedom’s just another word for nothin left to lose”.

Peace Out!

Candy is dandy and liquor is quicker

Not a bad view from the grilling outpost. What is that mountain or ridgeline in the far distance?

Aunt Pat’s salad. Every year at the holiday McCrarey has the Aunt Pat salad and that’s how I know it’s super -delicious.

The Walrus and Jee Yeun. I actually remember when you originally posted that photo. A number of moons ago. I do remember Jee Yeun having nice legs as well just like your current main squeeze.

“Such is life, but it still hurts to think about it”. I’m not a big country fan but there are a few country songs from a few country artists that resonate with me. One of them is a song called The Dance. I leave you with this McCrarey(get your tissue box).

“Looking back
On the memory of
The dance we shared
‘Neath the stars above

For a moment
All the world was right
But how could I have known
That you’d ever say goodbye

And now I’m glad i didn’t know
The way it all would end
The way it all would go

Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I’d have to miss the dance”.

Have to go McCrarey, I was peeling onions and I’m tearing up.

Peace Out!

Just another town along the road

You just effed-up McCrarey. Never do you reveal a woman’s age. Looks like I won’t be the only one jacking-off all this week. I got a used BlackPink poster for sale if you need it McCrarey. A couple of wet spots on the gals head but other than that, pristine condition. Make offer.

Peace Out!

» Posted By sojuHoncho On 24/December/2023 @ 9:59 am

So it looks like on December 28, 2003 @ 0600 hours, you will take on your new persona as The Hamburglar of Barretto. A role you were born to perform. Make us proud McCrarey.

Hey, there’s a Santa Monica in California too. Does the Santa Monica subdivision there have a fishing pier with a ferris wheel also?

“A dirty road”. From what I’ve seen, that describes most roads in the PI.

“We call it Black Rock for a reason”. I get it. Is there a Punk Rock anywhere around?

I don’t think the fishmonger previously worked in a bar. I mean, she didn’t ask you to buy her a lady drink at the fish market did she?

“Thank You You Are Now Leaving Subic”. You must have really pissed them off that they are thanking you for leaving. Not judging. I’ve heard “soju, get the hell out, thank-you”, a few times in my life. Usually at a relative’s house.

Next time you see the basket seller can you ask him/her if they have sex baskets. If so, get me his/her business card. Asking for a friend. His name is Peter.

And finally McCrarey, I would be remiss if i did not mention that your main squeeze looks absolutely lovely in the pic at BarCelona. You don’t look too shabby yourself but no way your legs look that good.

Peace Out!

» Posted By sojuHoncho On 24/December/2023 @ 8:55 am

Remember when

Relax McCrarey, I like how “drank” sounded in your sentence as well. As for me, last night I “spank”ed my monkey while looking at a poster of the gals from the K-Pop group Black Pink sounds way better than “spunk”ed my monkey, don’t ya think? Either way, I had a great time.

Eve shouldn’t be trash-talking Adam about his short-comings. I mean ,she ain’t got no rack. My tits are bigger than hers.

Loved the Walrus pics. Long Live the Walrus!

Peace Out!

Up, up, and away!

“That’s all I’ve got for today. More to come tamale”.( LOL) First thing I thought of was South of The Border in Hamer, South Carolin just before you enter North Carolina on I-95. They have their billboard signs alongside interstate 95 as you travel. Here’s one of the sayings I’ve seen on their roadside signs as I’ve traveled north from Georgia. “Pedro’s Weather Report!”” Chili Today—Hot Tamale!” Then the bottom of the sign shows your miles to Pedro’s South of The Border. On my many travels I’ve never stopped but its on my bucket list. It’s lit-up like Christmas when you go by there at night. Hotel, dining, shopping and attractions. Been there since 1950.Quite the institution. Anyway, if your daytime job doesn’t work out for you, it looks like you can get a job with South of the Border as a digital nomad and write witty Mexican-themed quotes for the company.

What do people in Idaho say when they touch something hot?
Hot Potato.

What do people in Mexico say when they touch something hot?
Hot Tamale.

What do people in China say when they touch something hot?
Hot Dog.

And Peace Out McCrarey!

You can count on it

McCrarey, I always enjoy your walk-along with me (steps) posts. I wish you would do more of them. I feel like I’m with you on the walk. In fact, I can actually hear the conversation we’re having as I tag along with you on the walk:

4,200 steps:
Soju:” McCrarey, did you fart again?”
McCrarey: “Soju, you know whoever smelt it dealt it.”
Soju:” McCrarey, you are wise beyond your years.”
McCrarey: “Tell me something I don’t already know Soju.”
4,800 steps:
Soju: “McCrarey, can you slow down, you know I’m a disabled vet.”
McCrarey:” STFU Soju, if i wanted to listen to bitching all day I would have stayed married.”
Soju:” McCrarey, you are wise beyond your years.”
McCrarey: “Soju, tell me something I don’t already know”

StarTrek, now we’re talkin!

Mr. Spock: What is the formula for pi?
Cherkov: Apple or blueberry, sir.

Peace Out!

Back to normal, see?

Duly Noted, McDouble.

Peace Out!

» Posted By sojuHoncho On 17/December/2023 @ 9:27 am

I had to chuckle when I read your response to Kevin. “so resisting temptation shouldn’t be too hard. At least when I’m sober.”(said the man who drank ten beers in one sitting). LOL You’ll be on a first name basis with the Mickey D’s crew. You’ll have 20 million McDonald’s Frequent Flyer program points. Mark my words McCrarey, by the end of 2024 the Barretto Mickey D’s will have renamed the McDouble to The McCrarey.

Peace Out!
