An uncensored westerner in Asia. For my main weblog. Sunday, October 31, 2004. From an email conversation with a friend who reads my blog. He knows both the boy and me:. I am worried. Your blog sounded alarming. I have been kind of alarmed these past few days.things have been overwhelmingly intense. I regret leaving the Guinness.
