Life in The Land of Denials. Gay retired American living in Thailand. February 19, 2013. It is not for me to judge the conduct of another culture. My only interest in sharing this with you is to point out that things are not always as they appear, in the land of denials. February 14, 2013. I do have to ponder what actually goes on behind closed doors, as a large percentage of kathoeys are tops. It’s a question that is sure to go unanswered, in the land of denials. November 9, 2012. That nice gentleman th...

The Two Faces of Pattaya | Gay Thailand Blog

https://gaythailandblog.wordpress.com/2012/10/27/the-two-faces-of-pattaya

Life in The Land of Denials. The Two Faces of Pattaya. October 27, 2012. That said, the reality is all Thais, to some degree, are two-faced, toward us and each other equally! It is an integral component of their social order. Anyone who lives here must come to terms with it, or go mad. But in places like Pattaya, it’s at an intensity that’s extremely difficult to live with, if you want to establish genuine relationships, of any sort. Newer post →.

http://inspiringisaanphotos.blogspot.com/2011/02/about-chanthaburi.html

Sunday, January 19, 2014. Same Same, But Different! Pt 15: Civil Disobedience Here (And There). The "I have a dream" speech crowd near the Washington Monument 50 years ago. During the decade of the 1960s - a bit over 50 years ago - the United States had its share of unrest. Not only then, mind you, but it's been the most influential and progressive time during my.

Thursday, June 19, 2014. Through My Viewfinder Pt. 2. And Some Thoughts On Time. Mist on the morning river in the Chonburi area. This is the second post of a series that will more than likely be another herky-jerk affair; Part 1. Being some miscellaneous pictures from days spent in Bangkok proper; the enormous sprawl of city itself that easily covers over 600 square miles, and some of the outlying metropolitan areas that are almost another 8,000 square miles. Bamboo scaffolding on a. There's comfort in f...

Monday, March 17, 2014. Same Same, But Different! Pt 16: Spring Cleaning And Home Repairs. Would you walk into the front room and tell me what the weather looks like today, please? It's March 17 - Saint Patrick's Day in many places. There's the first hint of corned beef beginning to rise from the slow-cooker here in my home; the warm aroma of peppercorn, bay leaves, and mustard seed leading the pack. That means there will be a fine dinner tonight. Regardless of how grand or how humble your home is in man...

How many does it take? | Gay Thailand Blog

https://gaythailandblog.wordpress.com/2012/10/23/how-many-does-it-take

Life in The Land of Denials. How many does it take? October 23, 2012. Living in Thailand I’m reminded of an old ethnic joke, typically targeting Polish people. It goes something like this, “How many [ethnic] people does it take to screw in a light bulb? 8221; The answer is, “One to hold the light bulb and five to spin the chair he’s standing on.”. In America I had a man come to my home and replace a broken window. One person! In Thailand I observed the same task being accomplished by five. You are commen...

Thursday, October 31, 2013. Yes, Thank You. I'm Still Around! If your month has been as good as mine has, you've been extremely fortunate. I'll hold that hope for you all. Even with. Losing a couple of favored people from our spinning blue marble I've had a wonderful October. As I'd mentioned a while back: I have a life that reaches far beyond blogging, and for that I'm eternally grateful. And I apologize. I do appreciate you asking. I'm also asked to speak every so often on travel in Thailand, and that ...
