....sweetwater XXXXXX ...I redacted the last name to protect the not so Innocent.
This just reminded me of a happening 50 years ago.
50 years ago, 1960, it was graduation time of the year for the local high school...jr. sr. prom weekend and all that. A group of teenage guys went to the beach for the weekend after the prom Friday night. They rented 4 $2 rooms at a cheap beach front motel. The rooms had 2 single bed cement slabs with a mattress on it. 2 people to a room for a total of 8 people and a single bathroom at the end of the 4 room wing (quadraplex?) thingy.
Well they were drinking beer, a lot of beer. The drinking age then was 18 way back then you know. The bathroom was staying pretty busy and this one fellow couldn't wait any longer and so he pissed in a couple of glasses sitting on the table table. The guy that had tied up the bathroom so long came out and the first thing he did was pick up a glass of pee and drink it....then exclaimed, "My. That's some mighty sweet water."
So, that's how Sweetwater XXXXXX came to have and to carry to this very day the nick name "Sweetwater" XXXXXX. Most people that know and call him that don't even know why.
Mystic Conn. 1969 august.
A bunch of sub sailors had rented an apt that they called a Snake Ranch. They had raided the barracks on base for mattresses and had wall to wall placed them together in all rooms but the bathroom and kitchen. The walls were painted with pictures of naked woman that lit up when the black lights were turned on.
Big time party at their place, somehow I was invited to attend. The sailors had just one TV. in the place and about 3 dozen people managed to squeeze in to watch Man first step on the Moon.
Plenty of beer and hot buttered and salted popcorn-----Just one bathroom and 36-40 people and all eyes glued on the TV.
Such an amazing time in all our lives, none of us wanted to miss a second of the landing.
All that beer and salt caused most of the sailors to go off into a corner where they could still see the TV and piss in empty beer bottles.
We woman made a dive for the bathroom so fast we had our panties down to our ankles 10 feet from the door, and that we kept open as from the bathroom one could see half the TV screen.
What a night that was for us, for the last hour or so we just held it in not wanting to move or miss anything.
After the program was over most everyone made a mad dash outside to pee in the bushes. The neighbors were not amused to have dozens of people peeing on their lawn ornaments and called the police.
What fun, man walks on the Moon and Vesta almost got arrested for peeing on a bush.
