Popular Post jayboy Posted September 8, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 8, 2018 There is nothing wrong with the idea of a racy Bangkok entertainment column.Before his long dull last phase I was an admirer of Bernard Trink"s "Nite Owl" column particularly in its old Bangkok World format.Clearly he was crazy but so peculiar it was fascinating.Modern mores mean that style could not be repeated.Unlike Stickman's tattooed fatties from Isaan, the girls from Trink's Bangkok World days were often genuine beauties. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the Stickman site began around 2001. And yes, we are getting old. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, me too, but back then CompuServe was a dial-up BBS system. not the internet. I'm showing my age, but I pre-date the PC / Mac era of the IT industry.

He's a Kiwi and hasn't been teaching. If you check, he has continued to run the site and comment on contributions to it from his base in NZ. If you are going to write nonsense about someone then at least get your facts right first. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some are easily manipulated and fooled. He wrote a column about Thailand and Bangkok nightlife for 20 years with followers in the thousands sold advertising at a decent rate and made quite a bit of money. Published thousands of stories fiction and non fiction about Thailand. Why would you say dreamy romance. He was Thailand related publisher with a large following who made money. What's wrong with that? Why do you think he manipulated anyone? 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But thanks for your input I met up with him in the flesh on his most recent visit. He was offered a deal to resume the Sunday, so he did. And despite what whiteman wrote, it's exactly the same writing and the same format as before. Why wouldn't it be, when it's the same person writing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
