Yo Kevin,

Paying 38 cents for a coffee this morning, I heard the best stories, man. At chichi places, social distancing has always been the norm.

That sexy chick got enough of your attention. What a combination, rambling crone and peekaboo flesh! When Gypsies robbed me in Berlin, I got no eye candy, and that Indian who drugged me in Pakse, Laos was an ugly creep.

At least you got robbed at the end of your trip, when there was less cash in your wallet.

38 cent coffee! That's some cheap writing fuel. Does it come with free wifi?

Yeah, that gypsy pair had it down. Normally you would think the sexy one would distract you while the crone robbed you. Go figure.

Yo Kevin,

Yes, Mrs. Seven has Wifi. Coffee comes with free hot tea, too. This morning, the coffee wasn't hot, however. As the day's first customer at 4:05AM, I was served what she had from the day before, probably. Couldn't be bothered to heat it up properly. Whatever, man. She's a sweet lady, and I love her tailless dogs, too.

The day's second customer was an old security guard who once crawled over a landmine in Cambodia. Thailand is suddenly at war with Cambodia. Most people suspect it's really USA vs China. I will write about it.

Kevin. What an INCREDIBLE story. Brilliantly and patiently told. Yes, one must dart away from sprigs always in Spain. So glad you're home safe!

Thank you, Celia! As I enjoy my 3 euro toast & coffee breakfast in Melilla it's a nice surprise to find the top two comments here are from two of my favorite writers.

I would like to comment here...but Kevin won't print my replies?

Kevin Barrett's avatar

Hi Kathy, great to hear from you! I normally don't censor anything here. Your reply has indeed been "printed." So...comment away!

Kevin, did your "politically incorrect" tour of Amsterdam include a pilgrimage to Ann Frank's hideout before she was removed to that "humanitarian city" Auschwitz?

Kevin Barrett's avatar

Stay tuned for the tour! I will be posting it before long, presumably this week. Spoiler: I did NOT visit the museum that exhibits Ann Frank's miraculous ball point pen, nor did I see the hundred-foot-tall Ball Point Pen monument.

Got to admire the set up.

I got robbed once in NYC crossing a street. Someone banged into me while the other stole my wallet. By the time I reached the other side of the street, my purse was physically lighter and I knew. That was 50 years ago. I then bought a soft material zippered flesh colored bag that could be tied around your waist, cross-over one shoulder or around your neck. Completely invisible under clothing. Let's get with it, dear. Your wife could make one in a flash, I'm sure.

Learned your lesson, eh? I do have a money belt but am generally too lazy to use it. But may have to reconsider.

Kevin, don't forget the time in May, 2024 you and I (and Cat and Bonnie) were harangued by a pack of gypsy girls in Zagreb on the train. They got nothing from you but my wallet was empty of cash. And the suspicious man clandestinely supervising them gave you my flashdrive that somehow got mysteriously flinched in the chaos they created to pull off their crime.

Kevin Barrett's avatar

I thought of that, Colleen. It was actually a similar set-up. One person or group distracts, the other picks the pocket or purse. And the young one in the fishnets in Malaga vaguely reminded me, in retrospect, of those girls who helped rob you in Zagreb. I wonder if it was the same one, or her cousin.

Kevin, have never known known you to ramble on about anything. Obviously the Gypsy with the fish net stockings scrambled your processes worse than I scramble eggs

Gracias amigo, pero no entiendo tu arabe!

Kevin Barrett's avatar

Wow, that is weird. So the Spanish guy who seemingly targeted the German with fake bird poop was another pickpocket. They are out in force in Malaga!

My true loyalties lie with truth, justice, beauty, and people who reflect those divine qualities. I could care less what ethnicity they were born into or what nominal religion they profess. Comprende, Pinche Perro?

Well, Paulo, let's face it, ethnic stereotypes and slur language (to "gyp" = to "jew") do have some basis in reality ; - ) Since that's so politically incorrect to say, it's what needs to be said. And yes, I know Hitler supposedly gassed the Gypsies alongside the Jews, which is why we worship Gypsies and build Gypsy Holocaust museums and monuments in every city and pay them trillions so they can completely dominate media, finance, and politics, and "return" to their alleged ancient homelands of Romania, Egypt, and India and commit genocide against the natives and set up an ethno-supremacist Gypsy State from which they plan to rebuild the Gypsy Temple and rule the world (as soon as their Gypsy Messiah arrives).

So I apologize for my politically incorrect language and white skin, and promise to do everything possible to make it easier for Gypsies and Jews to rob me blind ; - )
