  Hoi Ann, Vietnam
Tuesday, September 19, 2006

So yesterday my mummy sent me a message asking me to tone down my entries on my blog. She said that I might turn off a lot of readers by my harshness and profanity or actually, "I WOULD HATE FOR SOME PEOPLE TO GET OFFENDED AND STOP FOLLOWING YOUR TRAVELS!" I have really been thinking about this over the last day. And I came to my decision on it. I wanted to just take a second and apologize for "not" being sorry for anything you read on this site. I am using this blog as my travel journal. Anyone and everyone who is interested in the world as I am seeing it(the beautiful/confused/fucked up place that it is)is more then welcome to follow along with my journey. I am lucky enough to see life from a perspective that very few people ever get the chance to. I counted today and Vietnam is my 59th country that I have traveled through. Not many people ever get the chance to see that much of the world. And I am using this space to write an uncensored/unapologetic log of my adventures. If you are turned off by a few curse words and graphic stories that is more then understandable. There are plenty of other things for you to occupy your time with on the Internet. My site is not for everyone! If it comes down to me having to sensor what I write and say I am giving up the cause!

3 Things you will never see me write on this site:
1. Party stories about how wasted I got, or how many beers I drank the night before(that shit is lame!)
2. Tall tales about all the "bitches" I pulled (no one really cares or would believe me anyway!)
3. Pointless details about all the pretty things that I visited and seen (I travel because I am interested in people and culture. No one cares about how tall I thought the Efile Tower was!)

I cannot promise you anything other then I will give you my honest opinion and thoughts on: traveling, the world, religion, politics, love, life, and facial hairs!

I know that some of you are new to the whole "blog craze" but that is what a blog is about. It is a space for people to write their thoughts and feelings down without having to answer or apologize to anyone about the way they feel. Blogs are online journals! I linked my blog to a .com so that I am not intruding into anyone's lives with pointless group emails. My site www.johnnynomad.com is an easy way for anyone who would like to find my site and follow along to do so.

The world is not a fair place...
...people dying daily in this day of age of hunger - is not fair
...Croc Steve dying from a wound inflicted by a Stingray and not getting eaten by a Crocodile - is not fair
...12 yr old Asian girls forced to sale their bodies for money - is not fair
...countless numbers of people dying daily in Iraq over a war that was started for selfish reasons - is not fair
...the fact that Tom Cruise went from playing Joel Goodsen in Riskey Business to becoming an "evil sorcerer" in real life - is not fair
...me growing up and being persecuted/picked on by other children because I was different - is not fair
...me undeservingly having this "golden ticket" in life and being able to just bum around the world for 4 years - is not fair
...me not sharing the realities of what I am experiencing and learning because I did not want to offend a few people - would not be fair

I am not sure where I lost my mummy? Was it the amputee picks, was it my "How can you shoot women and children" quote, was it the story about my college roomy "touching himself?" I just don't know?


"I am nothing more than a little boy inside that cries out for attention
though I always try to hide 'Cause I talk to you like children,
Though I don't know how I feel, But I know I'll do the right thing
If the right thing is revealed" ~Staind (Epiphany)


No more on this..................
Smufet was a "hussy," there was a reason you were always picked last in gym class, your life is ending one second at a time, SAVE YOURSELF!!!!... I love you! ~Nomad
