TULUM OCTOBER 1974 After I left San Cristobal I passed a few hours in a very small village in one of the little valleys in the hills and there was a big fiesta going on there that took over the whole town with a marimba band and costumed dancers with bizarre colorful animal masks, the […]
read moreSAN CRISTOBAL OCTOBER 1974 Dear Doris, I got the itch again, so I left Oaxaca and hitched a ride south about halfway to the Isthmus of Tehuantepec where all the women were exceptionally tall and wore long colorful gowns like gypsy princesses. It was very late when I got there. I was still several miles […]
read moreOAXACA SEPTEMBER 1974 Dear Doris, Finally had my fill of idleness and solitude. I packed up my little bag and hitchhiked a ride about 50 km south to Pochutla where the road goes inland to the capital, Oaxaca. I couldn’t get a ride out that day, so I spent the night right there by the […]

read moreTwo girls from the hotel just came in the room to change my sheets while I was writing this and while one of them is changing the sheets, the other one is just standing there staring around absently and PICKING HER NOSE, neither of them saying a word and I’m certain that when they go […]
read moreGoddamnit this port town, I realize, is just another Central American town where customs like the Holy Church are a straitjacket to the people or at least to me because I am very certainly an outsider and don’t have the background to deal with or get around the taboos and such here. Everywhere ya go […]

read more10-11-74 This is a great product. I have totally eliminated gas and bloating by using this product in conjunction with Viagra . You can buy branded and generic medicines. Why worry anyway?

read morePort town, Honduras 10-10-74 Listening to classical music on the little transistor radio I bought yesterday. Sitting in candlelight darkness, my lonely pants hanging from a nail by the window (the same pants I wore when they took me to jail in British Honduras- but that’s another story.) Outside it’s pouring rain and I’m thinking […]
read moreSt Patrick’s Day 2010 Times Square Fact: Saint Patrick banished the snakes from Ireland. Why then do they all come slither about on his day of honor? Fact: Holy days are meant to venerate Saints. Last time I checked, vomiting at their likenesses fell under the ‘desecration’ category. Good and fairly cheap product. ! We […]
read moreThe blogs that you are about to enjoy in this series have been transcribed from various corresponding napkins and small scraps of waste paper, Mexican product labels and cigarette wrappers that I came across while uncovering new (old) material for Scabvendor. The first entry was written by a frustrated and bored young junkie named Jonathan […]

read moreI’m thinking of the secret life of birds. All around us they exist, like beings of some parallel universe. One sits just behind me right now, like a ghost in the window sill. It’s one of those cuckoo birds, coo-cooing right there by my head. A cuckoo bird, living right behind me here. And as […]
read moreThis week my beloved city by the sea is infested with all manner of bad creepiness and ugliness from the 4 festering corners of hell. Carnaval, a demented specticle of mass debauchery to make the likes of Joe Coleman and Heronymous Bosh cringe in revulsion together. Me, I’m planning to hole up at home and […]
