Apparently this lady is all over YouTube and the world. She has like 300,000,000 views just for one of her videos! That’s sick! I have seen her name over the last few years I’ve been in Thailand – but, like anything in the mainstream media – her name never occupied my head for more than [...]

Climbing down the mountain today I saw two butterflies locked in a lover’s embrace and flailing around stupidly, crashing on the steps 15 feet ahead of me. I watched them as they disengaged… and then a thought hit me. HOW do they know WHAT to have sex with? They don’t know what they look like, [...]

In a small recording session in France… In a concert – a much more subdued recording… his voice is so mellow and smooth… I prefer the first one. Brian Molko is god, I do believe.

CEO of Godaddy, Bob Parsons, worth billions of dollars is showing off on his blog – a video of him doing something really heroic… Shooting an elephant dead in Africa. The video is live today, but he’ll probably yank it to save his company, if he has any common sense left – http://www.video.me/ViewVideo.aspx?vid=380843&ci=23763 Now, if [...]

We’re another hour or so of heavy rain away from being flooded out of our house (it’s rented). I shot some video – will show on youtube when I can upload it. Crazy – it has rained for 5 days straight. All the southern provinces in Thailand are flooded. We have a river in back [...]

You know how, when you’ve had enough – and just want to get something over with that is ailing you? For me it was warts on my knees. After a couple years of that as a child – the ridicule, the loss of friends… the pure hell I went through for those years. I decided [...]

I’m not sure other people have this – I suspect you do. Not everyone has it – but, there must be a sizable portion of the population of the world that does. I’m never really that fucking happy. Sure I have great times… times where I lose myself in what I’m doing – usually watching [...]

I wonder how many writers are lamenting what they think is the fact that they can’t write as much as they want or need to. Are you? If I was in the USA with the myriad stressors hammering me one at a time, all day, everyday… I know I’d be in a weird spot. I’d [...]

My wife’s family got us a car to drive around. It’s a 2004. It’s decent. It has some issues we’re taking it in to get looked at for, but, all in all – quite decent and it will be a lot safer to be in that than 3 of us on a motorbike. I think. [...]

I can’t remember my first bad experience with a nurse – but I remember the last. Just about 10 minutes ago. She burst through the door talking about (in Thai) which medicine to squirt with a syringe into our 15 month old daughter’s mouth and dropped off a cup of 3 syringes for us. Thought [...]

I have a sneaky suspicion that a lot of writers are reading this blog, and not many readers of my books. Well, writers and those that happen to look up “vulture eating starving child” – because I do get a lot of visitors from Google on that query. The problem with authors writing blogs is [...]

There has been backlash to a crazy degree over the pat down procedures at airports before passengers are allowed to get into secure areas. First it was the see-through clothing scanners – heaven forbid someone see that you look just like everyone else on the planet – you’ve got two flaps covering the goods, or [...]
