A leap of faith

Happy Leap Year, everyone! I’m not sure if that’s even a thing. I’ve not even heard this 29th day of February mentioned in passing. Oh well, only four years until the next one.

I celebrated Leap Year’s Eve with a night out on the town. I wasn’t feeling like playing darts, and with nothing better to do I changed things up by attending the SOB dance contest. This week’s venue was Man Cave and there was a full house:

It’s been a couple of months since I last attended one of these dance competitions. I declined the offer of being a judge and just chilled out watching the show from the back. I did concur with the decisions of the panel on the top three finishers though.
Alaska did their usual costumed show and earned third place.
The Wet Spot team took second place. This gal is my favorite. I don’t barfine (pay to take a girl home) these days, but if I did she’d be the type I’d go for.
The Rum Jungle girls did an old school sexy dance routine, and that’s what I enjoy most.
This Rum Jungle dancer was red hot. Couldn’t take my eyes off her while she performed. I was surprised to learn later that she is a cherry girl (virgin) and not available for take out. I’m sure she was very tired this morning because she was running through my dreams all night!
And as you’ve probably surmised, the Rum Jungle gals earned this week’s SOB crown. Well done, ladies!

The man on the left in the photo above is Dave Fisher, a legend here in Barretto. He owns several of the bars and at least one hotel that I know of. At the Aftermath event in Rum Jungle, Dave joined me at my table and we had a very enjoyable chat. Dave’s a licensed physician who prior to retirement worked for a large pharmaceutical company in Europe. He still maintains a residence in Amsterdam and splits his Philippines time between Manila and Barretto. The guy is in his mid-seventies and shows no sign of slowing down at all. Had a great time hanging out with him.

I did pretty well with the raffle prizes as well. I also had my name drawn for the “Find the Joker” contest. There were about 35 cards left in the deck to choose from for a prize of P17,000 ($340.) Alas, my good fortune did not extend to this event, I pulled an 8 of clubs.

All that activity kept me out later than normal and I’d been drinking SML’s (Zero was out of stock again). I had intended to walk home, but a few steps down the highway I thought better of it and summoned a trike. I’d spent enough time walking that damn highway the past couple of days. Why push my luck?

Today’s “interesting” photo comes from my afternoon walk yesterday:

When it comes to litter, I suppose it all adds up. Coincidentally, that may be the number of beers I drank last night. But who’s counting?

The good news is I can probably mark myself safe from the Wuhan virus:

Whaddaya mean fake news? I believe it so it must be true!

Speaking of the worldwide epidemic that is bound to kill us all, still not much happening here in the Philippines. Or at least, nothing much is being reported. They have however banned entrance from Korea now, so if any of my old friends from there were planning a surprise visit, you’ll need to change your plans. For now at least.

That’s it for now. I’ve got some walking to do.

  1. The girl who’d be “your type” seems to have something in common with the blonde chick who deep-throated the ice cream in your previous post.

    Happy Leap Year!

  2. As for the girl who’s more my type: fourth photo from the top, bottom row, farthest left, pinkish bra strap visible. She’s a cutie, even with her loose belly. I prefer a woman with a slightly flabby tummy to a woman with Schwarzenegger-style six-pack abs. Only caveat is that she’s way, way too young.

  3. I’m wondering if, perchance, Dave Fisher NEVER EVER MARRYING whilst holding down a professional job he loved and a range of friends and business interests across the globe contributed to his rude looking levels of health and happiness…

  4. Kev, well the ability to swallow a lit candle does intrigue the imagination. Actually, what I like about her is she looks more Asian than most girls here. The one you like is definitely a cutie! As far as being too young goes, I’m sure she would tell you what I hear all the time: “age is just a number”. Some of them I think actually believe it!

    Dan, oddly enough Dave DOES have a wife. She’s European (Dave is from Ohio originally) and spends part of the year in Holland and part in Manila. She apparently never ventures up to Barretto where Dave maintains his business and other interests. He’s living the life of Riley, that’s for sure!

  5. Ralph, I’ve never asked her directly. The bars here generally don’t set a price, so the girls ask for what they want, subject to negotiation. My guess is the going rate would be P3000 or thereabouts…
