Ive been planning a trip to Thailand and Bali early next year, so todayI got this package from my mom today full of print outs from the department of defense saying how bad these places are.
And another one on diseases in SOutheast Asia. The CDC recommends I get about 15 thousand vaccinations from the Pharmaceutical company that pays the director the most. Horrible diseases...

I'd have replied in my own journal, but I doubt you'd see it again. 
Annd, nooope. I've always been open-minded and gay-loving. (Literally.) I was talking about someone from San Francisco - imagine that! Also, I do wish that my girlfriend were from SD. But, alas, she lives a thousand miles away and is younger than me, soo.. long distance for now. Sorry, now! I'll stop babbling in your journal. ;x

I replied to your enquiry on your journal entry from 11/29. ooops. I was browsing the xmas resistance site & when I got back I forgot that I was not on you current journal entry.
Happy American Gluttony Day Everyone!!
I did my part, I shouldnt have to eat for two days.
Now, here comes all that christmas shit... I was never a pumpkin smasher on halloween but this year I think I might start smashing plastic santas and all that other shit people put up.
Xmas Resistance
azura:
hmm that xmas resistance sounds like it might be a good idea....
lunabelle:
Right on. Xmas resistance!
I have been faithfully resisting Xmas for years now. Thankfully my family is as anti-consumer/establishment/corporate takeover as I am so we all just gave it up together. I like the site tho. Always nice to be able to print out posters/stickers etc. to spread the merry word.
My comic book site is not up yet. I need to settle on a name for it and buy the URL. I'll let you know when it is though!

Guten tag alles! Brand new boy here.
I saw many of you are from Portland--I may be moving there soon for work so I thought this may be a good place to meet some people.

or maybe you were talking about the rain??
Rain, maybe thats why there are so many goth boys n girls around. No sun=pale skin, depression. its a natural progression.

I was in Bali last year and it is incredible beyond imagination. Go to Ubud for sure. I stayed on the rice paddys there and fell asleep to the sound of singing from the mosques, woke to the sound of birds & insects chirping at dawn. I think of returning there every day.
I didn't get any vaccinations before going, and don't believe that thay are acually necessary. Rabies might be considered a danger because of all the mangy stray dogs running around the steets there.
I miss the smells, the gado gado, nasi goreng, the little offerings placed with care all over the sidewalks, the late night wayang, ketchek, the people...
Thailand & Vietnam are next for me.
It doesn't seem like you are phased by the doctors or you mothers warnings. Thats good, because the most imortant thing is that you GO! Have you ever heard of Grapefruit seed extract? Thats what kept me well the whole 3 weeks I was there. You can get it at the "health food" store. Put a few drops in your water or juice and it will fight off any bacteria or parasite. Load up on Vit C too. As long as you have a strong imune system you will be fine.
Salamat malam!
