Jamie Parker and I were sitting on Pattaya Beach yesterday. The breeze off the water was cool and the beer cold. Neither of us dared to challenge the sun, although every farang around us was slathering their pasty bodies with sun oil, as if they were the Sunday pig roast.

“You know I don’t believe in […]

Marshall McLuhan, the Canadian philosopher, said that US motorists would never car pool, because the commute to work was the only time they were ever alone, however the coiner of the phrase ‘the medium is the message’ never foresaw the invention of the cell phone, which allows drivers to reach out and touch somebody, although […]

Semi-Fiction from Peter Nolan Smith I spent 28 years in the East Village of New York. My apartment was at 256 East 10th Street. I worked nightclubs. CBGBs, Hurrah, Studio 54, and The Milk Bar. I had two motorcycles; a 1964 Triumph and 1970 Yamaha. Dmitri from the East 6th Street Bike Shop introduced Rick, […]

President Bush courageously maintained his mismanagement streak by condoning the Iraqi central government attempt to oust the Shi’ite militia from their traditional strongholds and then compounded this error by A-OKing US military involvement in this ‘defining moment’ of the long conflict in Mesopotamia.

These young boys are convinced that ridding themselves of their testicles will soften their masculine features […]

I haven’t received a spam from Africa for quite some time and I wrote that they might have abandoned bilking witless westerners of their assets, but this morning they were back at it, although from Ghana instead of Nigeria.

Ghana is a thousand times more trustworthy.

When I worked on 47th Street selling diamond we had several women working for our firm. Each one had to sign a waiver absolving us of sexual harassment. Not that we physically touch any of the women, but sometimes our conversation verged past the bounds of decency. If they told us to shut up, we […]

John Holmes hailed as the white hope for Caucasian XXX fans throughout the 70s suffering Black Panther penis envy. 12 inches of white thunder and I always wanted one day to unzip my zipper and have a woman say, “Not with that, you don’t.”

I even contemplated a penis transplant.
Donkey to man.
Only for one day.
Just to […]

Rice crop failures in Indonesia, Viet-Nam, and the Philippines along with stalled exports from India have doubled rice prices throughout Asia. Thailand has profited from the increase, as China’s appetite for the dietary staple shows no sings of slow-down.

Price hikes should be good news for Thai farmers, except the upward trend has pushed rice out […]
