Before I get started I must apologize, sincerely this time too. I know there are some of you out there who didn’t join me in my adventures on this blog only to be neglected and ignored in the very end. I had good intentions of delivering a final story or two, but too often we think intentions are good enough when they are not. I’m guilty of that.
Here are a bunch of photos from a recent trip to Laos, as well as some other random ones that have been sitting on my memory card for quite some time. I decided not to write a real post for this one, as its already been forever since my last post. All I really did in Laos anyway was just hang out, relax, and watch Friends at the restaurants. All the restaurants show reruns of Friends or Family Guy from when they open until they close.
Firstly, Happy New Year! I also hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. It was certainly a strange experience being here for the holidays. And although they were enjoyable, it also just made me miss home a lot. [..]
Aside from daily/semi-daily twitters (found at the bottom of the front page) I’ve been neglecting the whole outside world. And I have no doubt that you’ve been waiting anxiously for the release of Act II (more than when you waited for the release of Lord of the Rings 3, Harry Potter 7 (I haven’t read any), and the next great Vin Diesel movie (the first of which has yet to exist).

After a good number of uneventful weeks (note lack of blog posts) I’ve finally done something that was exciting enough to warrant an update on my adventures. August has a been a pretty lackluster month due to the lack of breaks and money- working permits and entry-visas are expensive items apparently. So traveling had, for the most part, been confined to the limits of Bangkok, primarily bars, bowling, the movies, and the sketchy water/amusement park- of which I am now a year-time member for a cool $30USD. The day pass was about $17, so why not pay the extra bit and come back at least once. [..]
Well that’s a complete lie and fabrication, but Boba Fett was the only thing I could think of that rhymed with Kho Samet. Also I think if he had the choice, he would’ve totally liked to have come from there. What’s that you say? Oh right, Kho Samet is the magnificent gem of a little island about three hours south of Bangkok. [..]
