...I could tell you how an irate factory landlord connived to get me thrown in prison for 5 nights in Bhopal...but I won't;
Or,... I could tell you about being caught on the Temple Mount in'69 when a Christian fundamentalist (an Ozzie, BTW) tried to set fire to the Al-Aqsa Mosque...but I won't;
or... I could tell you about being repeatedly threatened by armed bandits while participating on a dig in northern Iraq...but I won't;
or else... I could tell you about how I became possibly the first white boy to play in all Balinese orchestra on stage during the Arts Festival in Denpasar in '97...but I won't;
then again...I could tell you about my own illegal visit to Myanmar..but I won't;
...I could even tell you about working with war orphans in Mostar..but I won't tell you that either;
...I could also tell you that while I personally think it's perfectly o.k. to publish your life on a public internet forum, you should learn to roll with the punches and stop behaving like a frustrated adolescent who isn't getting the kind of attention he wants...but I won't.
