Hi Andy,
Sounds like youre having a nice time in Philippines - my favorite Asian country.
Nice people and great beaches.
I am now attending THE annual National Hobo Convention at remote Britt, Iowa. Surprisingly large attendance, with many genuine train-hopping hobos providing entertainment. Around the traditional hobo campfire: free food, free music, free beer:
http://www.hobo.com/convention.htm
August 6 to 9 - two more days left, you might want to tell your old friends in nearby Indiana to drive over.
At the big stage, this years King of Hobos asked if any special announcements or questions from the audience. Anybody youre looking for, etc.
I put our a call for you, Andy, as we thought you might attend the Hobo Convention:
King of Hobos: We have a question here from Mobile Mac - is Andy the Hobo here today?
Long pause, no answer.
He repeated: ANDY the HOBO....
Some scattered laughter, but no one recognized the name.
Hobo King looked back at me, looking a little puzzled. - and upset.
Somebody shouted, Never heard of him - Wheres he from?
I told Hobo King what to say, so he shouted into the microphone:
ANDY the HObo from IndiANNA !!
Still no answer from crowd. They looked puzzled.
Confused, the Hobo King made one last try, adding a bit of humor:
ANDY the HOBO from INDIANA, YOUR MOM IS LOOKING FOR YOU !!
That got a good round of laughs from the hobo crowd.
Anyway, I tried. And at least your name got mentioned at THE Hobo Convention, Britt, Iowa. Nice place.
Glad to read youre at Pagudpud.
I once had a girlfriend from nearby Laoag, thats a good place too.

Dear Andy,
What an exciting development! Best of luck during this charming engagement time.
At which transient room or bedspacer are you and your girlfriend lodging?
I always trust that you do what you say, and follow your own advice...
So which transient room did you pick?
Marriage might be good for you, help to cut down on some vices weve noted:
Poor diet choices, Coca-Cola (poison), lack of proper chiropractic care, avarice, envy, a strangely misanthropic view of our world...
a Thai wife cold help eliminate all these.
My wife is betting you end up doing the right thing, marry the poor girl.
My bet is on the other aisle, so to speak - youll soon fly the coop.
Time will tell the tale.

Dr. Motley looks like a speed freak, but dont worry about that.
Probably a very knowledgable fellow too.
While at Baguio, be sure to visit Chaparral Inn on Marcos Highway, gateway to several pubs.
At establishment named Spiders Web, ask for Baby.
No worries, they serve Near Beer at the Spiders Web. Quite affordable.
Masseuses there are said to somehow remove nodules on hip joint.
I repeat my question:
Have you even attended National Hobo Convention at Britt, Iowa? Kindly comment.

That was an interesting entry on Manila. Nice statue, was it a likeness of Ninoy Aquino?
L.A. Cafe looks pleasant also, though Ive never been there. Same location as former Firehouse?
Andy, as a real hobo, will you attend this years National Hobo Convention? Its August 6 - 9 at Britt, Iowa. About 500 miles west of Elkhart, Indiana.

I expect you have visited this annual event before. What did you think?
As readers of the Hobo Traveler Journal, we are interested in the Hobo Convention.

Howdy from Havana, Looking for freight trains.
Youre in Metro Manila - gateway to some of my favorite places.
Dont forget EDSA Extension International Entertainment Centre -
might do your back some good. Relax.
There, please enjoy one glass of Near Beer - Ill later reimburse.
From 1986 to 1989... I lived and worked at Morong, Bataan. North-west of Manila, sorta. There was a regugee processing center - I was an administrator, worked hard all day, best time of my life.
Each evening we would sip San Miguel Beer.
Good thing you werent there to glare...
Anyway, when youre feeling better, consider a trip to someplace different in the Phils. Such as Morong, or Segada, or wherever.
And remember: Cannabis Cures! You need to relax, amigo.
It is often written that half of all back pain is stress-related.
To the Entertainment Centre,

How much for one beer in Kenya? Do try the local cannabis yet?
But seriously.... what are these NGOs you keep mentioning, and how can I find a job with one. They sound wonderful.
Dont be so bitter! - set on a barstool and order a Near Beer. Relax.
