There's a couple of pictures I'd wanted to post in the last entry, but Cambodian internet cafes being what they are, was unable to at the time. The first one is apropos of nothing; I just like it. It's a street shot of Phnom Penh.
This next one... Well, all I'm saying is, dude, if you have to advertise this about yourself, then there is something severely wrong with your environment.
But I think that this is a sentiment behind which we can all stand... I'm not going to get any arguments there. At least, not any tasteful ones, and you know who you are. Sex tourism, and especially child sex tourism, is a very real and bizarrely evil occurance which of course as anyone knows about this part of the world, is in fact notorious for that sort of thing. Well, at least they're taking some steps in the right direction. T-shirts are a HUGE deterrent, as proven on laboratory mice who, after being shown the T-shirt logo, failed to molest any children.
doooood!! Britney shaved her head!!

That shirt is missing an exclamation point and a smiley face.

Britney who what?
And that shirt is missing someone named Heather wearing it to her child sex awareness class, if she thinks such things are amusing. [gets all unreasonably huffy]

I meant the shirt is amusing for the reasons you mentioned. It's like the least they can do. I think empty gestures are funny.

Kind of like when people get mad about something and then go funnel their tourism dollars into that economy.

That sounds rude. What I meant was, Christy's the one joking about Rwandan ass-rape. Go get on HER case. Damn!

I said I was unreasonably huffy. Anyway, tourism dollars to Cambodia=good, because that's a huge source of income for them. Tourist dollars do not support sex tourism... sexual predators and dirt poor Cambodians who give their children up for such things do that. Actually, the Cambodian government, as corrupt as they are, are actually taking the problem seriously, or so I understand. They realize that it's a bad image to have. I think the exclamation point and smiley face are due to be added next year, so, they're on top of it.
And don't you worry about Christy... I'll be taking care of her sweet ass later.
