I admit that my big mistake was forgetting that most people have never been on Okinawa and don't know just how wide spread and troublesome "the crabs" could be even for people that never interact with the local populace.

Again, I do apoligize and I will try to not let it happen again.

Scrawl I read on a bathroom wall at the enlisted men's club on Coronado Island:

Please don't throw your toothpicks in the toilet. The crabs here can pole vault.

I remember that night well to a point, I spent the night in the long bar hotel for...uh unruly behavior and allegedly throwing several beer bottles at a group of Marines. The only reason I'm here to type this today is the Shore Patrol got me before the Marines did. The young lady I was with that evening never spoke to me again. Women are SO unreasonable.

BTW, many public figures are in fact vomit.
