I drew this for my Chinese teachers. I think it's cute when I get pictures from my students and I'm confident my teachers will be similairly elated, not to mention impressed

In small cities people will go to great lengths to entertain themselves. Who recognises this scene?
When I wore this suit 2 Chinese people asked me, "Tom, what's the matter with you?" I'd just taken a big dose of 'Cool Tonic', that's all. Check out this guys teeth
"A good opium den? OK, you want to go straight up here and take a left...
Just wearing this singlet gave me a sore arse. I think maybe I look like Serena Williams
If you were to ask me, "Are those tassles?" I would reply, "Yes"
Could you ask for a better Christmas present? You would think not...

Oh- hey. We've all left America now. We had a wonderful trip and highly recommend it as a travel destination. I got drunk (on 40s, of course) and lost my camera on the last night of our stay- so no more photos. Oh well. We hope you enjoyed the site, and even if you didnt, I enjoyed putting it together. We love mail, so once again Tom b0tt0m@hotmail.com (0=zero) Tonamu tonamu@paradise.net.nz and Roy nigroy7@hotmail.com I am now living in China- write me an email- or better yet come and visit.
Good bye and all of my love

In the states you can buy these things called 40s. They are 40 ounce (1.186 litres) glass bottles of malt liquor- which is high alcohol beer. They taste pretty good and usually cost less than $2. It's a six pack in a bottle. We have fallen in love with them. They are the greatest things in the world. They are often sold in brown paper bags and hobos drink them.
Good morning Martin. Put on some clothes. We stayed with Martin in Toronto.
This made Tonamu's day. In fact it was by far and away the highlight of his trip
This is Brian and Mihr. They hosted us in Vermont. They are rad
This is me with my fancy Italian made sunglasses. That's right mum- your not the only one with trendy eyewear
We went swimming here in Vermont. It was real sweet. No that isn't a girl with no top on- it's tonamu

This is me in my new kepi. It's the kind of hat that was popular during the civil war. Im directing canon fire on those godless yankee bastards
this was in richmond viginia. Tonamu was so excited he ran a red light in front of a cop to turn around and get a photo. totally worth it
We've been to some more cool places. We drove the tina turner highway to get to nutbush here. Tonamu got a hat from goobertown. The fantastic woman in the photograph worked at the grocery store, in front is her grandson caleb

Tonamu is very short of money
and is looking for ways make some. But they didn't want his foreign blood

Wow. Arrrrkansas rules. We saw these three righteous places- all in one day. First Prattsville, then Bald Knob, then Weiner. Ace
This additional chap is Drew. He introduced us to Jenna outside the pub. He is tops. This is them saying goodbye. They werent really as delighted as the picture suggests. I managed to lose our only car key the night before (plonker) and having paid US$65 for a replacement we were off. These are our 3 favourite Texans- after the family of hill-billies we met while swimming at the lake. They are my favourite people ever.
Then we went to Nacodoches, East Texas. We meet these two fantastic girls- Jenna and Valerie and they let us stay at their place for two nights. They like drinking and partying too. The other guy is their cowboy landlord Earl. He was real sweet.
We visit Palestine and see Gay Ave. Could this be the best day of our trip yet?
We head east from a town called Alpine. We realise we could make San Antonio by the evening and see one of our favourite singers Ozzy Osbourne perform at Ozzfest. We arrive there after about six hours driving and pay US$35 to get in. We suffer through Disturbed and an especially poor performance by System of a Down to see the stage being packed up and to be told that Ozzy played much earlier in the day. San Antonio is gay
Then we went to Texas and immediately visited the towns of Kermit and Wink. But for their names, these towns were shitholes
We visited the Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico. This is pretty sweet and there were heaps of formations that were shaped like doodles.
This is Roy departing Las Vegas airport. Good bye Roy.
Having trimmed the fat Tonamu and I are more dynamic than ever. We go East and Roy is quickly forgotten.
Then Roy and I wound up the night by singing the Spice Girls hit- 2 becomes 1 at an outdoor Karaoke bar. We recieved applause.
This was our theme song for the trip while Roy was here. Now he's gone and there is just two of us it's become a bit gay. So we have changed it to In His Kiss from Cher.
