It is the hour before midnight, on the harsh, gray flat asphalt road along the banks of one of the Great Lakes . A truck races by like a shadow, the moon glowing behind a small house. The car swiftly goes on by, the dim light from the fogy night: --moon penetrating through the fog onto the tuck and house, where a man is standing by the road; -- music is heard coming from the car, Rock & Roll, as this stranger standing by the road, a man in a red plaid shirt, he stands erect, as if he was Paul Bunion; standing in-between the road and the house as a truck races by. Anyhow, I took the sergeant up on the deal he offered. After three months with the 101st in Dak To and Tuy Hoa, I was sent on a temporary duty assignment (TDY) near the DMZ to learn field station operations from the 8th Radio Research Unit at Trai Bac Station in Phu Bai. From there it was off to Pleiku where we worked first in support of the 25th Infantry Division and later the newly arrived 4th Infantry Division.

He stutters a bit and is silent as his truck slows down to ten miles per hour. Amery hands a knife to Skip, who puts it next to his groin area. The car stops, they both are thinking, looking at one another, their eyes are not blinking, you can see the hairs of their eyebrows as if the eye is attached to it, the lower lip of the eyelid is almost stuck to the eyebrow from staring, --they're listening to the waves, for that is the only sound now that is optional, except the humming of the truck motor, the waves of the of the Great Lake Superior seem to be upon them . http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/victim-no-11-sniper-probe-as-woman-shot-dead-5360016.html It's no secret that Jay Leno beat out David Letterman when it was time for NBC to replace the retiring Johnny Carson in 1992. But, did you know since the six foot tall comedian started hosting "The Tonight Show" that he rarely takes a day off? One of his many cars can most always be seen parked in his reserved "#1" parking place at the NBC Studio in Burbank. And, on top of doing the show, Jay Leno still manages to perform more than 150 standup comedy gigs a year. Skip: "See? That is all you needed." Skip has small glasses on, like Ben Franklin, as he speaks he looks over the top of his glasses at Amery. He notices Amery is more settled, and therefore, allows himself to lean back more into his seat. I had just started on another beer when someone dropped a few coins in the juke box. The music was bad country. To my utter disgust the first song that played was that "I want to stick a boot up your butt" super-patriotic, ultra-jingoist thing by the guy in the buy direct truck centre commercials. The people around me began to sing along loudly. Jumping off the back of the deuce-and-half truck, brushing through the crowd of peanut girls, I headed to the bar. It was a beautiful day with sunlight dappling the shaded roadway. The West Palm Beach Motorsports Examiner will be on hand for the event, and will provide insight into the longest day in professional auto racing; the Rolex 24! Visit the NTX web site to learn of classic auto shows and swap meets that are held periodically in the parking lot.
