I've a friend who just came back from Phucket.

She went, anticipating to see a complete wasteland. Amazingly enough, the place is thriving - new hotels going up on the beach, throngs of people everywhere, great nightlife.

Appears that the erotic-tourism industry is so hot that it was able to rebuild the area in weeks..... Huh? Imagine that. Horney forieners from Europe, Australia and the US pumping the economy to a full head of steam. Blue Balls are a force greater than nature.

There's a lesson to be learned there. Disaster recovery in New Orleans and Mississippi should start with the legalization of prostitution.

Yeah, but who knows how many underage kids are funding this whole thing. Really sad but people are PIGS! We'll never change....just a flaw in our DNA, an experiment gone way bad.
So how have you been? I'm kinda crappy because i'm getting divorced...

Nice post. Made me laugh :)

Evangelia has a point though.

The women of the world have got a bad deal.

I know too many that were abused and expoilted as children and far too many spend their lives getting it.

Still, I totally agree that prosititution should be legalised. A lot of the abuse that goes on, and part of the reason women get trapped in the cycle, is because of the legal issues and stigma attached, and the power wielded by men and others who know the truth and threaten, or are able, to reveal it.

yeah, I thought the post was funny in light of the "Gods punnishment" stuff from the time.

Its not really funny. I went to a thai brothel. I didn't partake. It wasn't funny.

I'm sort of crysalising at the moment. All this celebration of black humour has made me into a bad person. Stopping this dope for a few days and meditating is making me face myself a bit. The MDMA helped too. Got me into a state where I could look at my bad side without freaking out. Scared me into doing something about it.

Sorry to hear about your divorce Evangelia. I've got some tough love lessons to learn myself. I hope you are OK inside you. You seem to be able to express yourself about it all OK. Hope the kids are OK too, cheers for dropping by again.

Dave, I have no idea why I am leaving this comment. Maybe I sense that some of what you claim to have experienced may actually be true. Maybe I wish that it were true. Maybe I am just drunk. Who knows.

Anyway, I am going to suspend disbelief and look at what you write. I can't tell whether you are mystical or just pretentious. I would have to meet you to know the difference. Looking beyond the cheap dope references, I would like to think that you are offering an artist's view of events. If you are, you have my rapt attention. If you are not, you are bullshitting us and should be ashamed of your insecurity. Why don't you cast off the veil, at least momentarily, and declare yourself so we will know whether to take you seriously? If you don't, we have every reason to lose interest.

Hello du monde,

I'm not exactly sure why I'm replying to you, but I don't think Dave is mystical or pretentious. He is just Dave, a nice and friendly human. He is real.

Dave is not making anything up, just openly expressing and sharing his experiences, feelings and emotions with the world.

What exactly do you not believe about what he writes?

DAVE BONES said...

Its just a diary Mr. Du Monde.

I keep a diary online called a blog. This is it. You should try it.

I'm interested what you think makes a reference cheap or expensive?

DAVE BONES said...

why does categorizing me as an artist justify what I write in any way?

DAVE BONES said...

no really- what would an expensive drug reference look like?

Dave, in this country, a diary is considered to be private. For example, reading your sister's diary is a hanging offense. You, on the other hand, make your vanities public. I'm only interested in selective publication of my vanities by responding to folks like you.

A reference is cheap if you are unwilling to make it without exaggerating for humorous effect. An expensive reference is one that, seriously made, can expose you to personal loss.

Artists make statements that are unusual because they are revealing a unique perspective. Sociopaths make strange statements because they have no perspective at all. How should I interpret your strange statements?

This is an expensive drug reference Dave: I am Prime Minister_______, (or I am President________), and I love to smoke pot. Your references are cheap because they produce no consequences.

Your questions indicate that I probably should not take you seriously.

Cheers Mr. French dude, nice of you to come back.

In any country these days, a blog is a blog. A "Web-log". Logging events.

In my case a blog is an open diary which isn't a secret. There are secret blogs, which a lot of people also keep. For instance, I know a very popular blogger whose blog is a secret from her immediate friends and family.

I decided to keep this blog at first because I was not sure if anything I was doing in Finsbury park would get to a wider audience, so I thought I should record it all.

I have since taken to blogging as pure blogging- open expresion of my thought, on my blog for whoever wants to read them.

whether you "publicise your vanities" (whatever that means) or don't is entirely up to you. Whether you take me seriously or not is entirely up to you.

I do not require anyone to take me seriously to "validate" what I choose to write. I need neither categorization as "artist" or "sociopath" you are welcome to categorize any of my statements how you wish.

If a Politician talks about drugs and people won't vote for him it is expensive, but if I blog about it here as me it is cheap because I loose nothing?

SO FUCKING WHAT?

what are you saying here? What do I fucking care about politicians?

Why should I exagerate my drug references for comic effect? For you? Because I'm not a fucking politician?

As I say, take me seriously or not- I don't give a flying fuck- and I seriously mean that.

Do stop by at any time, nice to hear from you. Hope you are well.

DAVE BONES said...

Isn't blogging just great?

DAVE BONES said...

seriously though, what the fuck did you think I'd say?

Oh please take me seriously mr. rich Frenchman?
