Photos not from ohio
when i got my cushy computer job last year it allowed me a lot of time to hang out and travel to places that look nothing like ohio, although england looks suspiciously midwestern. in november of '99 i went to hawaii with sean the friend and in february of 2000 i went to london to visit another friend, elaine. much fun was had on both trips, although i doubt ill ever go back to hawaii. too much old people business, not enough surfers.
everyone in london looks to new york and everyone in new york looks to...im not from new york, im from ohio, so i dont know where they look, maybe baltimore. i do know that everyone in san francisco looks to new york (the more crunchy look to seattle or portland) also. that's a lot of pressure for new york, huh. anyway, i thought london was sweet but i had more fun in the little seaside town of brighton, which rests a short train ride south of london. brighton is really where it's at and where it is freezing (in february anyway) and everyone should start leaving new york alone and looking there. it #rocks# as they say and it's as close to san francisco as anything i saw in europe, but i really havent gone anywhere yet so that doesnt count for much.
in september im going back to ohio for a week. ill be sure not to put up any pictures here. in october i will visit my german friend, sabine (not to be confused with sabin, who's a boy, who's from santa barbara, which i assure you is nothing like ohio, even though i havent been there) and her mom and her 'master' who's name i can't remember. sabine is a goldsmith and a tall girl. she taught me a little german when she and her mom and myself went strolling through muir woods in april. du bist blurt, which for all of you who are not from ohio or germany or austria or some other countries near eastern europe that might still speak german, means you are stupid. i will only be in berlin for a week or two. after that, i will transplant myself in prague for one year where i will teach young children to curse and swear in english and in german (with the help of sabine). i have many talents being from ohio, my greatness knows no borders so i figured prague would be as good a place as any to stir things up overseas.

Hawaii is for suckers
that's what i got out of my five day adventure with sean the friend. we both got lucky too, but not together mind you (im sure), and the postcard perfect sunsets with frilly drinks emptied into hollow pineapples was a treat for sure, but after a couple of days you begin to realize why people warn you of waikiki. the place is littered with ABC tourist traps that sell the same things, but in different aisles. luckily, we met two boys who had a jeep and were from LA (boo hiss). they own one of them queer country western bars, which i would know nothing about coming from ohio and all. by way of the jeep the boys toted us around the island and showed us some neat stuff like waterfalls and other beaches where people dont wear their clothes. i think them gay boys like to take their clothes off a lot.
that's sean the friend to your right, proud to be holding a back scratcher. that's a mini-me in his drink drinking my drink, which was never as sweet as you'd think it might be.

down the tube
to your right you will find 'the tube' (which for you yankee, non-ohio types is the london metro underground mass transit thing - quite efficient, that tube). the tube and me got real friendly, like it was ohio or something. the tube took me to soho (which almost spells ohio) where i had pints and got pissed, met a cute viennese type. we took the tube out and the V-type showed me where george orwell lived and where people shag in the bushes. we, mind you, did no shagging in the bushes. the tube also took to me to jungle parties where i met cute academic types who asked me about san francisco. london looks to new york, but it has a sweet spot for sodom by the bay. i guess we like a lil pokeage from time to time. |
