TOUTS N' TOUTS

I'm exited about the internet for a few reasons this morning. Here's why.

Skulljuice has posted a new Justice track. Who ray.
It's totally slammin' (this one grows on you like a bad fungus) and the good news is that this track, called Phantom, is actually the B-side of the upcoming D.A.N.C.E. (their periods, not mine) EP.
Fucken A.
Can't wait to hear the A-side.
Next up, some interesting comments from Egypt's Minister of Tourism this week, who warns that aggressive touts and scam artists scare away more tourists than the threat of terrorism.

Indeed, he said that many tourists leave Egypt with a bad taste in their mouth and vow never to return.

Yikes.

These comments are pretty on it, methinks. Anyone who's braved the Giza crush just to get a glance of the p.y.r.a.m.i.d.s. (my periods) will relate.

Check the article here if'n your interested.

Other good news from the world of travel writing. The Star ran a piece on Dahab I wrote a couple of months ago. I'm not sure what it looked like in print but whatever. Check it.

Other than that, I'm planning a trip to Germany with my little sister, where we plan to check out some dancefloors, peruse boutique sneaker shops and eat some sausages.

Stay tuned.

1) When living in Portugal, I was so hungry for cash I accepted a job as a tout for a kareoke bar. W.H.O.A. (my periods)
2) Congrats on selling the travel piece. Let's hope "cousin" doesen't mistranslate into "gay lover" and you get a tidal wave of emails from potential lovers.
3) You're litte sister must be a righteous dude.

...and what about coming to Amman to check out Iraqi prosititues, enjoy Bedouin sing songs and peruse the anti-Zionist artwork?
Surely that beats any dancefloor in Berlin....right?

Dr. Bob...what a slim-ball. Speaking of "gay lovers" you should re-tool this into a gay-travel article, and sell it to "Out Snorkelling" Mag. Dahab could be the premier gay-snorkelling destination in the world. 30 guys to every one girl. Utopia.
