More drugs November 8, 2009

I can’t get over how the Dutch government is full of Christians who want to cut down on drug use. How can you be Christian and NOT condone drug use? What do you think Moses was doing when he was talking to God? The burning bush is the bush he was smoking. And Jesus looked [...]

Mushrooms November 7, 2009

Amsterdam. For a town that professes to be the Drug Capital of the Western World, it can hard to find the stuff. Start with the hash bars. As John Travolta said in Pulp Fiction, “It’s IL-legal for the cops to search you. That’s a right the police actually don’t have.” Well, they sure do now. [...]

Regularsweirdstraat November 5, 2009

Took a wrong turn into a street called the ‘RegularsWeirdStraat’ or something like that. Only in Amsterdam is Weird regular. And, boy, were those boys weird. Sorry, I should say QUEER. And I mean that in the most politically incorrect sense. (For more on Hank’s flirtations with homosexuality, tune in to Season 3 Californication.) (Sorry [...]

Red Light District part II November 5, 2009

As promised, today we discuss Natascha (not her real name), the most attractive prostitute I found in my tour of the Red Light District. And – by attractive – I mean not disgusting. As are many of the pros in their windows downtown. Don’t get me wrong. I am not referring to any specific women [...]

Red Light District Part 1 November 3, 2009

“Natascha – the only pro in whose window I’d dare to go…”   Yes, Dear Reader, Hank Moody visits the Red Light district in Amsterdam. How could I not? There is something deeply comforting knowing that a place like this exists in the world. Not just prostitution – which exists everywhere, even Utah – but [...]

Redhead November 3, 2009

Shy she was, and she was called Irene – the redhead at reception. She laughed and avoided my gaze when I asked her for a room. She blushed when I asked for cocaine. She turned and bent down to do nothing more than show her ass. She handed me my room keys: “I’ll bump in [...]

In Holland November 1, 2009

Ouch! What a flight! British Midland is cheap but the stewardesses are horrible. Tired now, but already love Amsterdam! Where’s the minibar? Better ask the redheaded lobbychick, liked her Dutch shy conversationstyle anyway…More to come. I’ll update in the evening and on my twitter.
