Postulates for Positive Travels

Another aspect of the se asia trip that made it so enjoyable was that i was consciously applying past lessons to enhance my travel experience. the ninja and brandon would be happy to see me independently developing and successfully implementing these tactics for happy endings. or call them guidelines, givens, or postulates. i call them good advice.

1. don't get attached. we're all traveling for fun. so keep things fun. it may mean something, but most likely not. much in the following list are closely related to #1.
2. don't say anything stupid. especially anything that alludes to breaking #1. in fact, the less you say, the better. just listen, and if you have to say something, keep 'em talking about themselves.
3. girls are like buses: if you miss one, there's another one coming along.
4. there's no such thing as players. postulate: girls will decide whether or not they'll sleep with you within the first 5 minutes of meeting you. while people are entitled to change their minds, it's rare in this case and not a good idea for a guy to bank on it. if you've been put in the friend zone, drop it. if you're on the good side, there's only 1 thing a dude can do: don't screw up. girls: it's not possible to be a "player". there're girls who put out, and girls who don't. simple as that. a girl that thinks she's a player is delusional. it's like giving a starving man food, or a thirsty man, water; he's gonna take it!
5. don't let them set precedents. not unless you like your pride being used as a door mat. #5 can be used to counteract people in breach of #4, but is generally good advice for all occasions.

obviously, each of these 5 topics can be discussed until we're blue in the face. but the trick is to know the essence of each, and then coordinate them all into a single plan of attack.

Beer, doesn't hurt, either. Bintang time was always a good time. Here's me and a Bintizzle on Poppies 2 in Kuta. Thailand left me in an 80's pop-dance frenzy, with Cyndi Lauper, the Human League, the Bangles, the Cars, Tears for Fears, the Outfield, Modern English, A-Ha, and many more embarrassing my pizzle.
