Pictures from Winston's birthday! (March 10)

Post by **Winston** » March 10th, 2010, 12:04 am

Hi everyone,
Well unfortunately today is my birthday again. Please don't ask me how old I am. After a certain age, each birthday becomes depressing, if you know what I mean. You start wondering if you've accomplished anything in life.

Anyway, check out the new home page. It's revised with new buttons and features and a cool intro!

Happy Birthday to me,
Winston

Thanks everyone,

Last night we celebrated with some friends. And Ladislav was kind enough to treat us to dinner too! Very much appreciated Ladislav.

Today is me and Dianne's anniversary of when we first met on March 11, 2007, so will be celebrating that as well.

Btw, I just got back from Subic yesterday from playing at the beach. I am all sunburned and pink all over. It hurts. While I was there, I met this Dutch guy who was in the construction business. He said that he loved the states cause he did so well in business there. He found Americans to be arrogant and ignorant of the rest of the world though. He also said that most American guys are terrible at saving money. They pretty much splurge everything they make right away. I found that to be true too. American men seem to spend and splurge recklessly, especially compared to Chinese guys at least.

What do you all think? Why do they do that?

Here are some pictures from my birthday at a karaoke. I wish you could have all been there with me.

Ladislav was there too, but he doesn't like to be in pictures, so you don't see him

Why are you complaining about? we are lucky to be men as we can age and keep playing around until we die.. but women dont exist after they get 30 years old ( correction: in the U.S that rule is after 40 years old) ...

She's one of Hy's girls, that Vietnamese guys I told you about. I forget her name, but I saw her with another guy the other day. Yeah her face and smile was cute. I don't know what bar she works at, but I can ask Hy.

As to dano's question, um, well my girlfriend Dianne was there, so I only had one possible choice for dessert

(besides the cake that is)

The look on that chicks face tells me "I already have 2 divorce lawyers lined up". The PI is very feminist oriented, beware!

Divorce lawyers in the Philippines? You need to check things out..divorce is not legal in the Philippines...and guys such as Winston, or myself who have lives in the Philippines tend to have a pretty good idea on just how feminist the Philippines is...which compared to the USA is almost ZERO. There are a few lefty feminist types that hang out at the UP or staff such outfits as Gabriela, but believe me, they are few and far between. You can live a long time in the Philippines before you meet a woman who is a western style feminist. There are a few amongst the elites, but they are few and far between. The overwhelming agenda of almost all girls you meet is marriage and children, and frankly, there are far more decent girls in the Philippines than there are good men to have them. I have known dozens of girls who were decent marriage material...I have rarely known an American man worth an introduction.

A lot of Filipinas here ask me if I could introduce them to a foreigner but I do not know even one who would be what they expect- a responsable husband and father a bread winner, a one woman man. And I would not want to court many such girls here because I myself am not really marriage material.

Come on now Winston!

You created quite an insightful ebook and launched this forum which has helped awaken many (although myself was awakened long ago

).
That is some contribution. Certainly more than many out there. You may think it's not grand or what you had planned for your life, but it's something. Also, good words and insights can live on beyond one's life on earth.

Also, you've at least gone out of the country and had fun experiences and cheered up people along the way. There are a good deal that don't even do that their whole lives.

So, gather some different perspective.

You could be crippled, in jail, in bad debt, stuck in a miserable marriage and locked in the U.S., lead a very bland existence, dead, you get the idea.

Happy birthday, even though a couple months late with my post.
