OK, so here we go...I'll take Anne and Dave's word for it...we're in India. We had a really shitty hotel last night...we've upgraded...like, we've hit the jackpot here! I have no idea what it's called...they barely speak English here, and they call things funny names.......whaaatEver! First.....Anne, for reasons unbeknownst to anyone, decided to feed her glasses to a monkey! WTF Anne...
The minute she did that, she decided "hey, those are my f'n glassed............WTF????" OK Anne...look at the nice birdies over here...
This guy thought I was flipping Anne the bird, and I was, but not like that...
Then my buddy Dave "Casanova" O'Neil decided he wanted a second wife, and asked this woman...
She was a little pissed that she got stuck with my buddy Dave "The Machine" O'Neil instead of TLD, and started to whine...
Her chai buddy didn't try to console her much...
She took my buddy Dave "Boogie Nights" O'Neil into the alley to try him out, and in a few minutes he came running out squealing like a little piglet...she gave back the twenty rupees Dave gave her! Anyway, most of that happened I think...I'll get back to you on that. At some point we were hanging around a temple...or was it a Starbucks?...something..........and I think this guy was taking tickets...
I guess they weren't paying him enough, and we just walked in and immediately met the Indian Santa Claus...he was there with a very drunk elf...Alphonse!
Alfonse was singing "Hello, I love you" just like Jim Morrison...that surprised me because I always thought Jim had teeth...maybe not. This kid waiting for Santa wasn't impressed...
...but these kids were VERY impressed with Alfonses dancing...
I was into my 14th beer when things got a little fuzzy...we must have been here...wherever that is...
...and this guy said he could tattoo a Spanish Galleon on my ass for $14 US...
...my buddy Dave "The Illustrated Man" said he bet me the guy couldn't...this woman volunteered to be the judge...
...and we went to her house...
...I got a little nervous when he said he'd never seen such a nice ass....hmmmmm...oh look at the time...gotta go! I thought this looked like a good place to get a drink...
...but I got distracted by my buddy Dave "Diane Arbus" O'Neil having the time of his life...
My buddy Dave"the nasal cavity" O'Neil likes to get REALLY close with a long lens, and shoot nose hair...he's funny that way! Anyway, I got this shot just before Anne found me in my usual place...the gutter!
What the hell kind of trip are you on??? Oh, right....the one beside us. Wiggling and scooting around, with some leetle camera, hussling innocent monkeys, trying to be invisible. People keep signing at us....what the hell is that guy in a mask doing bending & twisting around?
