[QUOTE=WyattEarp;2226788]Your Vietnam Visa says Single Entry. You went all the way to Vietnam for one SOG???[/QUOTE]Astute observation, my friend. But, bear in mind that one can find an image of just about anything on the internet. Google the phrase VietNam visa, and look under the Images, and you will have countless images to pull off these here internets. Its easy to grab some image on just about any subject and download it off the internet. I gave that a lot of thought myself and I realized that it would be a different story to post an image of your visa or passport stamp laying on a sheet of paper with your screen name on it. But, to get down to what I'm really getting at, I have posted all my passport stamps that relate to all my numerous field reports on this site.
Now if you notice, my passport is laying on a piece of paper with my screen name on it. That is something that you can not just pull off the internet. Your screen name physically laying next to the image of your screen name, not digitally printed onto the image is something that makes the image unique. For example, I Googled the phrase "Vietnam Visa Wyatt Earp" and you know what I came up with? Lots of images of Wyatt Earp and lots of images of old time firearms. And that's why I posted my passport stamps for my field reports for my trips this past year to SE Asia and to Bogota over the Labor Day weekend. There are too many charlatans on internet forums posing as experts. Thanks to the plethora of info about anything on the internet, its easy for anyone who has never been 50 miles from home to portray himself as a man of the world on internet forums. Consider this example of an impressive young man who convinced experienced travelers that he was an expert on adventure travel. Problem was, he was a con man.

I hope that clarifies my quest for veracity on this forum.

Five and a half years ago? I have sensed that you usually make a very positive impression wherever you go. Women seem quite taken by you, often eager to pay their own way and yours as well. Five and a half years is a long time, considering you could have raked in dividends many times from the positive impressions you presumably created.
Yes I'm back again, I tend to come back when I see the prices drop to see what the climate is in Rio.
It just depresses me to read and see its dead in Rio. I know, I know. Brothels and prives. But that's just not the true Rio.
With flights from Atl to Rio $748 round trip non-stop Delta I don't know if I can pass up on a trip even if the scene is not popping.
I know ill finally have to go to 4 x4,. Monta Carlo etc. To find some quality. But did I read correctly the one post the poster spent $300+ USA Dollers in 4 x4 for a hour or so?
Iis there any quality to be found in some of the other spots that have seen mentioned like Mariuzinn or the spot near Mabbs?
Reading some of the post for a club to work it has to be in the Copa area walking distance it has to be a large nice club, not just some hole in the wall place.

One SOG (shot on goal), Single Entry visa. Well, it seemed funny when I wrote it. Don't drink and post!
Verify trip-reports with passport stamps? What will be the next? Photos of used condoms to verify sessions?
Since I've mentioned numerous times my first time in Rio was 1980 here is a pic of my 1980 Brazil Visa.

That's impressive! I wish I've seen Brazil in 1980 (but not as a kid).
Considering there were a lot of hairy (not meaning small Chaplins) girls in Brazil 1991, how was in 1980? Big bushes?
[QUOTE=RioBob;2227133]Since I've mentioned numerous times my first time in Rio was 1980 here is a pic of my 1980 Brazil Visa.[/QUOTE]Wow 1980! I'm going to say it that's LEGEN. Wait for it. DARY.
I've been visiting Brazil since the early 90's. It was amazing. A young, foreign guy could pursue pros, non-pros and civilians very easily. Civilians were actually happy to be seen with a tourist (ymmv). The stigma that set in over time increased year by year as more and more men discovered Rio thanks to the internet.

Just curious, after your visit in 1980 did you have a Brazil-pause until 1988? Were there big changes between these visits? Brazilians hardly wants to comment the time during the military dictatorship

I actually remember the first girl I ever met in Rio, can picture her face but what was between her legs? I don't remember, probably manicured somewhat but not bald LOL. I was staying at the Rio Palace which is now Sofitel in Copa, the Cafe next door Pigalle must have been 25 girls sitting there. I had no idea they were hookers, I told my friend something is up with this place all these beautiful girls are looking at us. The rest is history.

From 1980 to 1987 I went to Rio 35 times, I worked for Pan American airways at the time and flew everywhere. To be honest I had no idea about Military dictatorship, I was young and having a good time. Copacabana was packed with girls in every cafe, Franks bar, Barbarellas, Club Erotika etc. Help didn't open until 1984 but really wasn't a monger destination. I frequented places like Regines in the Meridian hotel, Crocodile in The Rio Othon Palace and Hippopotamus in Ipanema where Barronetti was. Girls were cheap and next day they would show up at your hotel to go out again, many times money wasn't even discussed but paid anyway just to set it straight.
