Indian Men Get Hit Where It Hurts
A recent article by Damian Grammaticus of the BBC began with a heading “Condoms too big for Indian men”. The opening paragraph then stated, ”A survey of more than 1,000 men in India has concluded that condoms made according to international sizes are too large for a majority of Indian men.” Since that apparently wasn’t clear [...]

I Dream of Genie
Yesterday, I opened up my closet to find it full of clean, freshly pressed clothes. “Hey,” I said to Jan, who was standing nearby, “look at that – magic!” This is a long-running joke between us. “Yes,” she said, “and magic make bed and wash floor and clean bathrooms, too.” “I know,” I said. “It’s [...]

Episode 37: The Allowance
She woke me by sticking something pointy into my ribs. “Get up, ya sleazeball,” she whispered in my ear. “We’re takin’ a little ride downtown.” “Uh-huh,” I said, rolling over the other way. We’d been watching a lot of 1930’s and 1940’s gangster movies lately, and I assumed she was just fooling around. “Whadda ya?” [...]

Massage Emasculation
As I’ve mentioned a few times on this blog, I love getting Thai messages. I’ve also been amazed at the physical strength and athleticism of the local 100-pound female masseuses, who easily bend and manipulate me despite being half my size. Last night, I found myself ass-to-face with a 250-pound female masseuse, and it wasn’t [...]

Movie Buff Marriage Talk
There's no denying it: Jan and I are movie buffs. We watch every new movie that comes to our local cineplex, and if there are no new movies, we buy DVDs. In the 2o months we've been a couple, I estimate we've seen at least 400 movies together. Lately, I've noticed her focusing almost exclusively [...]

Have You Pooped On Your Patch of Sidewalk Today?
Let's face it: everyone is seeking that little patch of life we can call our own. Most of us seek it through family. Others try to carve it out in our careers. Still others are more literal and build beautiful homes. I, personally, have had many patches of life along the way. Indeed, I'm what [...]

Women, Barbie, And Me (Part 2)
It took me a week to find a new Ken, Barbie, and suitable dollhouse. When I got them home, the first thing I did was sit Ken down for a little heart-to-heart. "Ken," I said, "I know you're a young, strapping guy desperately in need of getting some. But there are stages to these things. [...]

Women, Barbie, And Me (Part 1)
After reading a great deal about how mercury from my dental amalgams was making me stupid (I'd been searching for the cause for years), I finally went to a dentist the other day to have my four amalgam fillings replaced with porcelain composites. I haven't been to many dentists in my life, so this was [...]

Call of the Wild
Feb. 04, 2012, 9:43 a.m. I don't know what's wrong with me. Ever since I got home from my trip to the immigration office and saw all those Thai women getting permits for their men, I've been feeling a bit strange. A few minutes ago, I had to go pee, but standing over the toilet, [...]
