Out of the country (again)

So I’ve been in the following places in the last 72 hours: Colonia (Uruguay), Buenos Aries, Washington DC, San Francisco, Hong Kong and finally Shenzhen. 32 hours of flying, 6 hours of layovers, taxis, boats, trains, planes, ugghh. I feel greasier than the guy in the movie Coming to America that sold Soul Glow. I don’t know how Diddy & Jay Z do all that jet setting pimpin shit - must be the private jets.

BA was totally sweet. I expected a dirty Mexico City thug vibe. D$ even told me to be careful and bring a gun or something. So I was totally surprised when it turned out to be more like a European Manhattan in South America. Tons of culture, food, shopping, history, architecture, etc. Great weather only added to the overall vibe of the place, since its springtime there. Some pics will be posted later for your viewing pleasure.

Typing this on the boat from the HK airport to Shenzhen. KK is scooping me up there and we’re headed to the “Canton Fair” for a half day tomorrow to patrol for knock offs. I think everything in house wares that’s on a shelf form WallMart comes form here. A bulldozer could push the junk sold there into a land fill and we’d all be better off. Some fat fucks looking for the “hawt itemz” at the Canton Fair are sitting across form me. Golf polos tucked into pleated pants, white tennis shoes and cell phones on the belt. Both about 50 or so lbs over weight. So USA. So beat. Thank god for the iPod and Les Savy Fav. I don’t have to listen to their banter about if the cheeseburgers are better at TGI Fridays or Red Robin.
