    Good to see you once a-gain Mate from L.A.California.You both looked so fresh. Wait till that heat hits you once a-gain. Hard to get a-way from that. Loved your video at the airport in Thailand. It did look very busy Think it was very smart of you to stay there.Tell Wendy I think she would make a wonder-full customer service lady. So pretty and soft-spoken. Cracked me-up when she said if you had any questions please do not ask.Great when she told you to remove your smelly shoes from your capsule. What did you say? Yes mom, funny stuff. I like her accent Very nice.So she does not like birds. That was a-lot of pigeons my-man. Some-times people here call them flying rats. HaHa. In 1963 Alfred Hitchcock made a movie called THE BIRDS. A real classic.If you watch it now the birds look kind of cheesy. Back then, big hit.She would love that.Ha.Ha. Talk a-bout cheese, that 7-ELEVEN blue-me away. Could not belief some of those sandwiches. Looked pretty good ti me.I just knew Mark was going to have a hard time letting you go.I like those tuk-tuk Grabs. Pretty cool. Wish we had those here in L.A.I saw that man with the cart of coconuts right-away.I love them my-self. Had them almost every-day when I visit Asia. That white fish Wendy had looked good. I like curry but may-be not with fish in it. I am waiting for you to hit 50k even 100k soon my-brother. You really deserve it.Really entertaining. I know you will. I would like to give a shout-out to people watching David to consider buying him a cup-of coffee. 5 or 10 dollars is not going to break you i am sure. This is a good man we have here folks. Help him out if you can. Thank-you. Tom the Cali.cat.

    Dave, the first rule you need to learn in Cambodia is ignore the tuk tuk drivers, because they will ALL rip you off, no matter how friendly they may seem.
    If this guy has spent time in Australia, he should understand what it means when you say "Go fuck yourself mate!". That's exactly what you should have told him the moment he approached you for the first time!

I hope you will make it to Hong Kong then you could visit Macu. Very nice. Right up there with Las-Vegas. I liked seeing there currency. I have some brand-new Thai baht from the 1970s. One of them is 1-baht. Thats worth about 1-penny now, What is the lowest paper money now brother? That coconut you had for one dollar was good deal. I like the Chinese gold they sell over there. 24k. Funny when Wendy copied you and said , are you out of your god-dam mind. Had to laugh. Liked it when you caught her posing for her camera. Safe travels my friend. Tom the Cali. cat.

    The truth history about Cambodia is not what you get from your Tuk Tuk driver. In 1802 after Nguyen Phuc Anh become an Emperor of the Nguyen Dynasty, he invaded and expelled the Thai overlord with the exception of Siem Reap and Battambong remained under the Thai controlled. The rest of Cambodia were under the Vietnamese controlled. The Nguyen classified all Vietnamese as HAN Nhen and inaugurated the Chu-HAN as the national administration language which was know as the Mandarin. When Ang Chan II died in 1834, the Vietnamese placed Ang Mey to be queen of Cambodia. By this time the entire administration in Cambodia were filled with Vietnamese official including Cambodia region of Prey Norkor (Saigon). Ang Duong with the Thai help failed to expelled the Vietnamese from Cambodia but end up with the joint suzerainty between the Thai and Vietnamese and he had to paid tribute to both the Thai and Vietnamese. The French slowly making inroad into southeast Asia and Ang Duong had the idea of seeking the French help to protect Cambodia territory integrity. Ang Duong died in 1860, the Thai released his eldest son Norodom to be crowned as Cambodia King in 1860. With Khmer Prince Sisowath help, the French captured Prey Norkor (Saigon) in 1858 and made it a French colony 1862 called Cochin China because Saigon was filled with refugee from the dying Ming Dynasty in the late 1700th century and Khmer. Followed up with his father idea, Norodom made the entire Cambodia the French protectorate in 1863. Rebellion against the French happened as soon as the second year of Cambodia become the French protectorate. All anti-French rebellion were put down with the help of Prince Sisowath from his base in Prey Norkor (Saigon). For his help, the French rewarded Sisowath and crowned him as Cambodia King in 1904 instead of Norodom eldest son Norodom Duongchak. If all anti-French rebellion in Cambodia were put down with the help of Prince Sisowath from his base in Prey Norkor (Saigon), then the entire Mekong delta was still a Khmer territory before the French Protectorate. It was the French import of the Chu-Han (Mandarin) to run its administration in Cambodia that caused Cambodia to loose the Mekong Delta to the Vietnamese. The Brevie Line in 1939 become the de factor border of Cambodia and Vietnam. For Khmer reader, the three competing princes after Ang Duong was Norodom, Sisowath and Si Votha.
    Norodom Base was in Phnom Penh, Sisowath stronghold was in Prey Norkor (Saigon) and 10 years after Norodom crowned as King, Si Votha stronghold was in Kratie, Cambodia. The pro-French was Sisowath and the Anti-French was Si Votha. The Chu-Han (Mandarin) remained the administrator Cambodia officialdom and most rebellion against the French were waged by these people. It was during the 10 years rebellion waged against the French by Prince Si Votha that Pol Pot's grandfather killed by the French trapped because he was help organized supplies for rebellion.
