THAILAND

  It's best to start Thailand off with a few weeks of kickboxing in Bangkok.  Ouch.  My body still hurts.

We went to see actual fights at the Lumpinee stadium, Bangkok.

 

Ouch. I'm helping oil the fighters.
Relatives and friends of a Lumpinee fighter, i.e. gamblers.

 

Right by the gym, there was a school to defile. Steve + She So Horny, the prostitute that gave me a "Thai massage."  Jealous?

You're in Thailand, so read up.  Human reproduction a la Thai.

 

I don't read Thai, hence the grandbaby.  The lady in the skirt behind me had no underwear and wanted everyone to know, except my camera.  :(
Holy shit - that's me.

 

Holy shit - that's me. Holy shit - that's me.
Holy shit - that's me.

 

A film crew came to the gym for a day.... ...and the katoi (transvestite) actor loved me. 
The tuk tuk driver that Bangconned me.  My Thai breakfast of crap I ate AFTER I got sick.  (Krabi) Fortunately, I didn't eat these - barbecue bugs (Bangkok)
Nothing says I like your religion more than a Buddha crotch shot.  (Sukothai) Buddha float (Bangkok) Why oh why do Europeans do this?!?!?!
I wanted to bring shark head keychains for everyone. Buddha + tree (Sukothai) In Thailand, old nasty white guys get all the girls.  Fortunately, the ones that I don't want (northern Thai hills).
     
Northern Thailand was gorgeous.  I had the pleasure of exploring it by bike, boat, and elephant.
I have no idea what country this was. Hilltreking in the north. Me + Mekong River (Laos)
     
 
Ha, ha, stupid tourists. The paradise hotel of.....BURMA  
     
Malaysia and Singapore
I don't feel like putting many Singapore and Malaysia pictures, so you only get these.

 

I convinced the owner of this turtle soup shop to take this picture of me in his kitchen.  (Singapore) Steve + largest shark fin in the world (Singapore) China owns Malaysia, which explains why there is a Buddhist temple with eyelash vipers that people play with.
I can't read this sign without laughing, but they're quite serious (Malaysia) Do I want to eat this? (Singapore) REAL Chinese food (Singapore)
   
Snake temples are far more interesting than Kuala Lumpur.  (Malaysia)    
     
CAMBODIA
Cambodia serves 3 purposes in the universe:

1.  Angkor Wat

2.  You can shoot a bazooka at a car for $20, or a cow for $100.

3.  You can find out if your medical evacuation insurance is any good.

I only did Angkor Wat, but came close to all 3.

     
ANGKOR WAT
     
My country is cleaning up landmines in the Rohka?  That almost makes up for bombing them. You'll never see a double-decker truck outside of Cambodia. Steve + the Cambodian girl who sold me a pancake and I ended up paying for her to go to school for a month.  Watch out for the line ladies - she wants to marry me.
YES!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!! View from the temple entitled "YES!!!!!"
     
I told you I defiled it. Angkor Wat in the rain Guess what I FINALLY got to touch.
     
the evil stairs (not pictured)
Tomb Raider temple.  I stood in the same place as Angelina Jolie.  I am cooler than you.  And her.  Gate to the main Angkor complex. I almost broke my toe on my hotel stairs and would've needed a medical evac.
