No, he was serious. He was very concerned that "so many" Americans
were going to such a "small island." I lived on Guam for 6 months.
There were more Americans on Guam during Vietnam than there now will
be. Google maps Guam and look at all the housing that used to be in
the north-east part of the island. You can still see the "Elephant
Cage" (Wollenweber Circular Display Antenna). It's the big round thing
between Anderson and the west coast.

Are you sure? I mean, a trusting sort might think they are "Americans," but are
they real, good ol' fashioned _AMERICAN_ "Americans"...? I mean, before ya know
it, some of them Peruvians, Hondurans, and GOD FORBID, MEXICANS are liable to
sneak in on ya...

HTH,
R
....and whoo-doggies, if them AFRICAN-"Americans" manage to get in, well...there
goes the Guamihood....

I know it's a U.S. territory, so technically, yeah. But when I was
there ten thousand years ago, everyone referred to the locals as
"Guamanians". It wasn't a racial slur - they referred to themselves
that way.

It is now a big tourist stop-over for wealthy Japanese. When I was
there in '57, there were still Japanese soldiers left over from WWII.
One turned himself in just before I arrived.

Nice place....... to visit.

Ah...so that explains the need for all those Marines...

Then why not give those Japanese tourists...wait, screw "give" - they're
"wealthy," so make 'em each rent a rifle while, um, Guaming and tell them if
anyone tries to invade, hang on for at least 12 years...or until you and Brian
Keith arrive, whichever comes first...

Sheesh,
R
....and hold on a sec, here, Frank - when these tourists show up, they give 'em
citizenship? Oh, man, Lou Dobbs is gonna **** a kitten...
