Thanks SeaJay, I've gotter earmarked. You know, there are publishing companies out there that will publish what you bring them for your own private use as you see fit. You may give them away, sell them, whatever you wish. I have an old friend that collected all his stories and experiences, had them published, and sold them for $10 ea.; which is what it cost to print and bind.
Reading your "stuff" has kept me up to the wee hours of the morning (three bells for you)many times. Thanks again!

It's late and I'm heading to bed, but I'll give that all a read tomorrow!

Hilarious! Laughed so hard I cried and other watery things.

[JimM68]

Well that was totally not fair....

Seajay,

I'm glad you've put your "sea stories" in one place. Now I know where I can go when I need a chuckle or two. I love your sense of humor!

i would like everyone to know that my Blog with most of my posting off of IRV2 are TRUE TO MY MEMORY. You guys should remember that I was in the Navy from late 1958 until 1962 and I am now 71 years old and to be honest, things can get a little foggy over that many years. I will say this THEY ARE TRUE AS I REMEMBER THEM because they burned into my mind as they happened. Virtually all of them were FIRST PERSON, FIRST TIME EXPERIENCES and they really stuck in my mind. I want everyone to understand that they may be ''slightly embellished'' to a point for more fun reading but they are all based on truth as I remember them.
The story of Katy O'neal does not contain all the personal stuff because it would not be worthy of print here on IRV2 and I would guarantee it would not pass the sensors if I had put in all the '' good parts ''......lol..... That was one of those things that happens to a man ''once in his life'' and you remember it the rest of your life like watching a movie in your mind. No, it was not my ''first time'' but it was my ''first time'' with a lady that really knew how to please a man and how to show a man how to really ''please her'' and NO she was not a ''lady of the evening'' as it were, she was just a lady that I happened to strike her fancy for some reason and I thank the good Lord for that experience ..... Nuff said on this because I would guess someone is reaching for his ''delete'' button.....
The other sea stories are from the Uss North Hampton CLC1 while I served aboard her for about 30 months and my service in Cheltenham MD while on shore duty. I am sure more will come back to me as I sit and think about my service to this nation in the Navy.
All of you should remember that others have posted in the ''Sea Stories'' and a lot of them are really good reading.
I hope everyone will go to my blog and enjoy the stories. One word of caution...... If you read a post and you see (cough cough) in the text or at the end of the post ........ IT IS WRITTEN FOR SATIRE..... It is from a real happening but I have highly embellished it to a point of satire and that is the way it is meant. It is for ENTERTAINMENT and should be taken as such.
Again, I invite everyone to go look, and read, and enjoy my blog at
My Life as I remember it and other boaring stuff and please leave a comment so I will know you were there.......

Remember this ..... A veteran put his life on the line to guarantee our freedom of speech. When you see a veteran always say thanks for your service.......

Oh! No! Another four hours on the computer. I'll never get the dishes done, or the housework completed. DW is not going to like you much.....hee hee, but i will.

[Wayne M]

I'm going to have to pause. This is going to take more than 4 hours.

Remember, I read real slow, and I have to convert the big words to small words of 4 letters each so I can understand them.

Shux!
