    Bangkokbois

    Members,

    Moses has restored the Bangkokbois site to where it was before Russ passed away.
    Some you mentioned you wanted to search the site for a photo of Noom.

    http://bangkokbois.sawatdeenetwork.com/

    I would like to think that Noom knows what happened and leave it at that.

    I approved a back-log of comments today, that was me.

    I may post a final post on it, before I lock it, to let those that didn't know, that Russ is gone.

    http://bangkokbois.sawatdeenetwork.c...e-bangkokbois/

    I very warm thank you to Moses! And a fond adieu to Rush, Yet Again

    Re: Bangkokbois

    I was looking for this link:
    http://bangkokbois.sawatdeenetwork.com/ ... ass-award/

    Some found Rush's writing offensive I didn't as he was a brilliant saterist in a virtual world.

    Re: Bangkokbois

    That is sad to hear. I corresponded with him quite often for a while via comments on the blog and PM here. The blog lost my attention eventually and I hadn't tuned in for a long time. RIP

    His article on The Turtle Ass Award for 2013 (to GayThailand board) was also quite invigorating. http://bangkokbois.sawatdeenetwork.com/ ... ss-awards/ Unfortunately Rush has kicked the bucket, but GayThailand is still as sanctimoniously twee as it was before 2013.

    Rush didn't give the Turtle Ass Award to Sawatdee because, as he put it, ' ... hovering over 'That Board' like a Damocles sword one always felt the possibility of blood on the streets in any given post ... ' :-? He liked that.

    Over the years other noted Turtle Awards were handed out to Herr Gaybutton, BAHT STOP, Air Asia, Beachlover, Kobe Bryant, and Jim Thompson's House. Eclectic for sure.
    Not sure if any of them they collected theirs.

    Moses,

    I really appreciate your efforts in restoring Rush's blog-thank you very much. In my opinion his blog will go down as one of the very best on the Internet.

    Thank you Dax. I have plans to return to Rush's blog in 2-3 months: to tune it theme for reading from mobile phones and a little bit tune colors to make it more easy readable, but without big changes, just tuning. it was just a quick fix few days ago - just for to restore blog itself "as it was in past".

    Hmmm. Seems I am the only one that thought that Rush (RIP) was full of himself and wrote like a mummies boy who rarely actually visited Thailand - but instead decided to attempt to satirise those that did!
    Give me beachlovers blog instead any day!!
    Buffalo me die! Send Money!

    Re: Bangkokbois

    Beachlover has a blog? URL please ... I'm a masochist.

    'Rush...' not visiting Thailand? Not so sure about that. His sly wit far out shone Beachlover by a country mile, and talking about being full of one's self ... Beachlover was the absolute epitome of the ego-driven message board posting machine. If in fact Beachlover actually has a blog it would be quite appropriate: a hefty 87% of internet blog owners suffer from Deadly Vanity Syndrome.
