Isn't it funny how we all remember the guys in the dorms not by name, but by habits (good and bad, weird and adopted), and sometimes by the skanks that came and went, so to speak?

I was LMAO when you described the guy down the hall.

Edit;

I don't know if that is the name of the bay in Sint Maarten. We always stayed on the Dutch side, the French side was really dangerous to go out at night. They had a different view about the poor Frenchmen that had to earn a meal ripping off the tourists at gunpoint for a living. Funny thing, the Dutch had a law and order regime in place. No crime on that side of the island.

The only other place I have ever seen such a dichotomy was Singapore. No crime. Hangings every Friday at Changi Prison. Time from arrest to swinging from a rope? 2 weeks tops.

300 feet across the straits was Malaysia. Rampant crime. Plan on getting mugged or worse. Islamic justice, but no police to speak of.
