I asked previous, did you “find” your daughter at an….. old gun emplacement ?
was the moon painting/drawing, yours..?
HellHathNoFury
Yes, some of the graffiti is mine. That’s a very unique place called Fort Warden in Port Townsend, Wa. It’s over 100 years old, and it’s a beachfront war fort converted into a state park. One of three protecting the nuclear military bases in Puget Sound. Not many places you can sit on a 12-inch disappearing gun on four stories of bunker while watching the seals play on the beach. There are mazes, hidden rooms, dozens of separate bunkers and endless paintball battles and people getting lost in the woods, petting deer and feeding raccoons. Ooh, they filmed Officer and a Gentleman there. it happens to be located in a very strange little town full of artists, internet moguls and hippies living in multi-million dollar Victorian homes, worshiping Mother Earth. Seriously, the stores and buildings are the same as they were in the 1800s. And I happen to live on the property behind it.
Next I’ll be showing off my varsity jacket and bragging about my school, haha!

Thank you…
Love that sort of info, takes me out of this boring place, Adelaide South. Australia, a place so boring, not even the rain wants to come here, if god was going to give the earth an enema, this is where he would stick the tube, into somewhere nice.
Can you really pet wild deer, and feed raccoons.? have you taken pics of same..?
Submit them here..? Would love to see… Have you been/driven on that underwater bridge..?
I was fascinated by it when I saw pics many years ago..
You typed, a long time ago, that you worked in a shipyard, that and the fact you horribly disfigured, in fact nearly burnt right off, your face, I am presuming you work on navel vessels..?
Are you really truly a welder..? As in flashy dancer…? Gosh 2 film references..
Understand if you don’t answer… Didn’t/don’t mean to get too personal, but… now about that varsity jacket..? ( What’s a varsity jacket..? )
HellHathNoFury
A varsity jacket is given to football players, with the name of the school and their last name and player number on it. It’s almost guido status.
Haha, don’t worry, we get all the rain you don’t get. Yes, I’m a Boilermaker at a few military bases. Not an attractive job at all, but it brings money in. Hm, underwater bridge? I feel stupid now. We have a floating bridge, the Hood Canal, and part of it separates and floats off to let submarines through. it’s quite a sight, but it gets old fast when you’re waiting to cross. Yes, we have plenty of raccoons that come onto neighborhood porches to be fed grapes, doughnuts, cat food, etc. Deer as well. The people here make way for them in traffic, so they feel comfortable. we have several raccoons that can be pet and loved and invited in. Emily posted pics of our spotted deer a few days ago. He’s a celebrity around here, and lets people touch him if they have potato chips. They’ve posted pics of my raccoons as well. In today’s awesome kids post, there are two pics of my daughter and her friends up at Fort Warden being weird.
Haha, I’m not horribly disfigured, but for someone who never had bad skin, I sure have big funky blotches all around my chin, cheek and eye now. Hot slag is not our friend when overhead welding.
I’ll shut up now.

Firstly… I am glad you have said it was slag.. read that you have worked on n. subs and I was starting to worry it was THAT kind of burn and that my crack about your face falling off might have been a bit too close. Then, a silver cloud appeared,and I thought maybe the new head you were going to grow might have a lovely face on it.. Keep your uncomfortable mask on…!
Oh… that jacket… thought that girls only got them from their football playing boyfriends when they gave IT up.. congats to you for having one. Your house sounds like a menagerie..( Your spotted deer sounds like me.. same thing…! )
Your neighborhood a drive through zoo, I envy you even more. I live in Tiger’s ( she is a cat..) flat/apartment on the roof top, 8th floor,of a building in the middle of the CBD. She is the only wildlife I get to enjoy, oh and bloody pigeons, cooing and shitting all over.. I will have to go back and check out your pics.. perhaps you could put a letter in the corner of each pic you submit in future..? The bridge I was thinking of is a bridge, then goes underwater as a tunnel under the shipping channel, is that not yours..? ( I smoked dope a few years back…! ) This is going to read strange.. What do you sound like, your accent..?
We get a LOT of American TV. shows here, is there anyone I might know that sounds like you..? Don’t laugh at me… I picture ( and hear) you as the girl on myth buster’s.. The lately pregnant one.. Have tried to ask you before, (but was ignored, or not seen..) about Torch Wood.. Did you see/watch it…? You once made reference to Capt. Jack.. Is it still on your TV… It has just finished here… strange, strange ending..
Thank you so much for responding, I realize your time must be limited.. I have a thousand Americana type questions, not personal.. like do students pay for food in school cafeterias…?
Please never shut up if you have things to say…
I’ll shut up now.

About my accent. My parents moved me to Uganda for missions when I was a year old, and we lived there til I was 14, so I’m the only one with a very strange British accent in my family. Most English-speaking people in Africa have French or British accents, due to the missionaries and teachers being European. So that’s how I got used to speaking. I try to cover it, since I get made fun of constantly. think Hermione Granger and Gerard Butler had an angry baby, it’s me. *no, I’m not British or Scottish, no my parents don’t talk like this, that’s the only way I could communicate aside from Luganda, and Swahili. Thanks for the mockery*
we don’t get Torch Wood anymore. I know alot of British shows from TV in africa, but I watch Faulty Towers, Black Adder and Monty and all that crap here.

Made the mistake of typing in my E address in my response to ^ awaiting moderation is the result…! Didn’t want you to think I was ignoring you, hence this.. Never mind, something exciting to look forward too…
jeff in Australia
Don’t know either of those people, so I will just imagine that you sound a bit like us here, with a twang… Guessing there are not that many Ugandans, or Bantu(?) in your neighborhood to keep up your language skills.. Can you read either of those tongues ..
Knew/thought there must have been something that made you stand out from the ordinary.. Haven’t you found that people only try to make fun of you, is when they are jealous or are just trying to make you smile..
Travel and life experiences certainly do make for a more all rounded person.. And NO, I am not saying you look fat..! Saw the pic of your daughter and her friend… left a comment.
This is the 4th time I have tried to answer you.. I typed out a long and boring story about my wild wildlife experience with a possum, also about the end of Torch wood, how they teamed up with Dr. Who to fight the 456 aliens, I asked you several questions, then realized they were probably personal on some level. I have read some of the moronic comments you have received, I don’t want to be thought of, by you, as one of those people..
My insecurity bug started to bite, so I scrubbed them.. jrj8@live.com Still have lots of American questions in my head, you didn’t ( ouch) respond ( ouch ) to my hints ( ouch )
so you will please take note of the lack ( ouch ) of them in this res(ouch)ponce to your much more interesting reply… cheers mate..
