To say that Patts is NOT a shithole totally ignores the facts. What other beach resort has a strong raw sewage smell when you walk down certain sois? It isn't Cabo or Cozumel or any other place I've been. It may be getting more non-monger tourists, but that is only because they can't afford a first (or even second) world beach. That said, it's still my favorite shithole. I love the temples and the culture....of young girls sucking my dick to send money home to mom (who taught her how)

This LOS addiction may be the most powerful on earth, worse than drugs, at least for me. At 50, I can't even bear the thought of hanging out with, and especially, having sex with a woman my age. So what will the rest of my life be like ? I suppose it will mean being alone mostly. And paying for trips with all my spare money. If you have a good woman, get over this LOS fantasy !

Shekou closed down...that's bad news, as I was hoping to make it back there. Did you happen to hit an expat club called the Snakepit, down near the ferry terminal ?

My China experience is limited to HK, Macau, Shekou, Shenzhen. Shekou (near the ferry terminal) was awesome! Not like Patts, as there were no gogo's or discos. But little bars everywhere with plenty of fun young ladies. Walk in and there might be 5 girls and you are the only customer. After buying a drink or two things start to get FUN. I did one LT back at the girl's apt (was sharing hotel with a co worker) and paid about $50 USD. HK and Macau were out of my price range, but many stunners available.

If all of the counterfeit Viagra (worthless ingredients in real packaging) is indicative of all drugs available in pharmacies......buyer beware

The idea about being a 100% defensive rider is spot-on. By that I mean believing that nobody can see you, and not trusting anyone to actually obey stop signs or red lights until the actually stop and make eye contact. And sometimes that isn't even enough! Riding like this has kept me from ever being involved in a collision with another vehicle. But I admit to many spills while pretending to catch and pass Kenny Roberts (if ur old you know who) while on my Ninja
