"the Green Frog" I forgot about that place too. They said I had a great time in there too.

Ah yes the Green Frog! Here's my quick Frog story. I hadn't been to the Eglin area since I had retired 3 years earlier, the company I worked for had a tdy so I jumped on it. I stayed at the Radisson Beach resort, used to a Holiday Inn until a huricane or something forced some changes. Anyway, I was within staggering distance of Sammy's and the Frog, I slogged my way across the highway and sat down in the "Frog" ordered my set up and took notice of the fine lady wiggling to some bad music; She was the Ex of some guy I was stationed with about 5 years before. Sure was glad to see her! She made my two week work sabbatical more recreational! Ah yes, the memories!

We used to call the Green Frog "Full Metal Jacket" for obvious reasons! If you've been there you know what i'm talkin about

Every now and again, I'd have some luck in the beach bars, but all too many times, it was jailbait drinking on a fakie, some chain-smoking, 48 year old hag who needs to lay off the crystal meth, or some drunk chick with 6 teeth and a spare tire.

Then again, I was never really counting on meeting the future, "Mrs. TC" (whoever she is) in one of those places, so it didn't matter much anyway, I guess.

...and Alamo! Picking up what a buddy left behind! Laughing Ok, I would've gone for it too. I'm not gonna lie. You were just living the dream, that's all. Cool This Bud's For You! Beer
