Thanks for your comments, Basil, we agree about your comments on their versatility; they work just about anywhere, day or night. On the squaeking issue, please note that the comment was about the old Timberland 32026, which we eschewed, and not the 30003, which we reviewed.
Thanks for writing!

Comment on How to avoid excessive phone charges when traveling in Asia by Steven

Steven — Sat, 14 Apr 2012 00:22:29 +0000

I prefer an inexpensive, unlocked, Android phone. I bought a prepaid quad-band AT&T Avail (ZTE990) for $100 and unlocked it (free). I synced my Google contact list before I left home, loaded music, loaded travel information, and loaded foreign maps. In Asia I buy a prepaid SIM card. The Wi-Fi on a smart phone is very useful.

I also forward my landline and cellular numbers to my Google Voice number which in turn I forward to whatever new phone number I get in Asia. Google Voice charges very little for international calling, so it doesn’t cost much, only a few cents per minute. The only problem is getting calls at odd times.

I agree with your good article about the shoes. I got my first pair in 1989 for touring in Europe and used them all day and everyday. The only shoes I took with me. You can wear them anywhere as they have a classic style and the aggressive rubber soles work well on all surfaces. Very comfortable and made for wearing without sox. They are also springy when you walk on solid floors when the rubber soles are still new. The shoes also attract a lot of attention and complements from other people as the classic style and the very aggressive rubber soles stand out when you are waiting at the airports or walking in the hotel. When I come home I use them for everyday wear. You mention about the shoes squeaking. The rubber soles may squeak on some shinny solid floors when walking, mainly on hotel floors and airport waiting lounges, but should never be problem and does not bother me at all.
I will always recomend these shoes to anybody who will be touring. On my next tour I will get me a new pair or two before I leave. The burgandy color for day wear and the smooth brown for evening wear.

Comment on Beware underage girl and Bar bill padding scams in Angeles City, Philippines by Magoichi Saika

This is why prostitution should be legalized:

1. Prostitute has full rights, priveleges, self-respect, and health incentives as a working professional.

2. There is no more secrecy and fear.

3. Government gains more tax money.

4. Religious/Conervative sectors will now shut up.

5. Prostitution as a profession can now be organized.

6. There are more good reasons but I’ll stop here.

7. While we’re at it, we should lower the Age of Consent coz whether we like it or not, know it or not, young people are still fucking each other secretly.
