"There's no fool like an old fool"
I'm in a daze. Concentration is non-existent. Food has no taste, while whiskey just disappears.
My son will drive me to Valley International November 6 so I can wait for my afternoon flight to H'town, then Taipei, finally Cebu City, well, actually the U.S. Army-built Mactan Airport at Lapu-Lapu, then a taxi across the bridge to Cebu City.(24 hours of total flight time, but with layovers and adding the 13 hour time difference, I depart November 6, but don't arrive until November 8)

| Castle Peak Hotel, Cebu City |
My home will be the Castle Peak Hotel for at least the first 4 days, then off to Cagayan de Oro to meet Hesel and her parents.
Hesel will be the only woman I meet in the Philippines after sorting through several dozen online. Talking every night till 6 AM on video calls or typing on Facebook Messenger, Hesel and I have covered a lot of ground. We still have much to figure out or make work. "We will see" is on the tip of both of our tongues.
Since I'm already on Philippine time, will I still get jet lag?
"Give my love to Jack," Hesel repeats each night.
When I told her we did a podcast last Sunday, Hesel said: "I watch it every week, Jim!"
Hesel sent me the pic on the left she'd recovered from the archives.
"That's a cool kid," she claimed to believe.
"No one every said that kid or his Hawaiian shirt were cool," I countered, adding: "Do you know what I used to keep my hair sticking up straight? Butch Wax."
These days, I no longer use Brylcreem, VITALIS or Butch Wax.
Have I finally become a natural man or was I just a slow learner?

Those girls are "ladyboys" Barton, cute as hell and better looking than girls, but in the end they're just boys saying what you wanna hear, doing what you want for money. What da hell, uno al ano del enano no hace dano, right?
ReplyDeleteI yield to your experience with ladyboys, as I've had none, and many are stunningly beautiful, as you imply, but they don't seem to be in hiding as many men seem to enjoy going that route.
DeleteTo say that all beautiful filipinas are ladyboys is simply not true, as the 4 who've won the Ms. Universe contest in recent years are likely not.
Perhaps, you just had a natural attraction to same gender beauty.
Pinche anciano calenturiento.
ReplyDeletenot so much. He just knows one genitalia from the other.
DeleteJim, Jim, Jim, come on man! Don't you see this road you're walking? Can't you see where it's going? There's still time to turn the car around, Jim, and do the right thing. Please, come on now, do the right thing. Jim, Jim, I just, I can't, I can't even............
ReplyDeletePlease define the "road I"m walking." I'm widowed, looking for a mate internationally. What, in your view, would be the "right thing?"
DeleteHesel is beautiful Jim. You are a lucky man.
ReplyDeleteMuy bien Jim. Enjoy your life and the pleasures of Southeast Asia. Also, don't just go to Philippines, go to Cambodia,Myanmar beautiful women there, they're still very traditional. Don't listen to the haters. Disfruta tu vida.

What does 'still traditional' mean?
DeleteThey will cook, what you want when you want. They will give you your place as a the man in the relationship. They will focus on you (the man) being happy. They will happily stay at home and be very happy with you just being with them. They’re ok with being weak and fragile. Lots of things that American and Mexican women are not anymore.

Well I wouldn't expect anything less of American women. Everyone alive today is pretty much descended from pioneers surviving through wilderness and wars, native americans who built their own homes and grew their own food, or immigrants with the strength to travel hundreds of miles, fight for a better life and survive illness and exposure. Men and women had to have each others backs for real, the ladies weren't glorified maids or puppies as the men might need to count on them for their lives. There was no HEB back then if you wanted to eat. There was little tolerance for weakness and the frail were weeded out of both sexes. I seriously doubt a lady who has survived the brutal and violent Duterte dictatorship, someone who has put herself out there and willing to look for a better life with a foreigner would describe herself as 'fragile'. That takes balls.
Deletelol you don’t know what you’re talking about. Who ever you are, open your mind my friend and travel. There’s a whole world out there, with different perspectives and different ways of interacting with the world and with each other. Not everyone believes the same things most people here in the U.S. believe. Cuídate y nunca es tarde para disfrutar la vida!!

I think this whole business of your going to phillipines to hook up with a teenage local because you're an old, sad widower es tanto pedo pa cagar aguao and reminds me of the time when Javi Loco went up the El Jardin and said he was going to jump unless El Barril qepd turned on the jukebox so he could dance with one of the girls. To which they closed the joint and went outside to see him jump. Se agüeyo
ReplyDeleteYou may not need any butch wax to keep it up, but have you considered purchasing Viagra? At Garcia's you can get 15 100 milligram tablets for $50. You want a firm bat in your hands, so you can whack a home run. And it looks like this gal has a pretty good fast ball. And, by the way, does she have a sister or a cousin? I don't hit the ball quite as far any more, but I do get my bat on the ball. Bon voyage.
