| 30th April 2008 Sophat | - From: Cambodia on a Dime Just as a point of clarification, Phnom Penh is the former "Pearl" of French Indochina, but it is Angkor that was the capital of the Khmer Empire. |
| 27th April 2008 Fayette | Happy birthday Cory! - From: Tiger Trifecta: Three Asian Cities, One Week Hey Cory, Excellent blog! I particularly loved reading your take on your adventures in Bangers. I laughed out loud several times. Your description of the Soi Cowboy strip clubs were spot on. The chili crab splatter on your t-shirt is a sad (and hilarious) tale. I hope you found a good stain remover spray back at home. All the best, Fayette in Kuala Lumpur |

| 13th April 2008 the soul cultivator | True..True & True - From: The Hefty Mid-Section of Vietnam How true your entertaining words are....I too am now in Hoi An and its ruddy hot. I also have another temperature and rotting throat, this is unbarable. The doctor here asked me did I come through the boarder from Cambodia then spend more than 4 days in HCMC. I said yes. The air is riddled with upper respiritory disease apparently...you did very well to fly. Enjoy Phnom Phen. (visit my boys in siem reap!!!) |
| 9th April 2008 The Sushi Cowboy | If at first you don't succeed... - From: Back When I Was In 'Nam I greatly admire your persistence in entering Uncle Ho's mausoleum. I'd have done the same thing and it's quite fun indeed, irritating underpaid military security by pushing your luck. Cheers for not getting shot or beaten for being a smart ass! |
| 4th April 2008 The Sushi Cowboy | Flicked Thumb! Vrrrry naaaace! - From: The Wonders of Borneo Corn smoothy? It seems you found a little pocket of Japan. At the very least, you can gauge the speed of your digestive system. |
| 4th April 2008 Ellie from KL | Cory will eat anything - From: Burnei's Bandar: The Cleanest Town in South East Asia Cory, the green stuff you are eating is call "ketayap" in Malay, it's a rolled pancake with coconut stuffing. The thin pancake is made of flour and coconut milk, mix into a batter. The green color is from the "pandan" (screwpine) leaves, which is also use to give the aroma to the food. The stuffing is made of grated fresh coconut cooked with brown sugar. This dish is a common breakfast dish for Malay people. If you like the pancake you should try a savoury one call "roti jala". The same ingredients are used to make the pancake but the color is yellow and it looks like shredded pancake, this pancake is eaten with curry. |

World Studies 3 is to be a year long course next year. Come back Maestro and bring your bull whip!

| 19th December 2007 anticrisps | - From: Croatia - Where Dalmatian Is Not Just a Good Mascot I've been cycling around Dalmatia this summer and I remember staying an hour or so in front of the exact picture you sent of the bosnian farmland. I remember, it was a pretty steep road and it was the time when the ray of the sun is giving this special magic things to the landscape. I must say I deserved it.Amazing we have the exact same picture u can look on my blog http://estoni1.spaces.live.com/ Take care buddy and remember : NO CRISPS AFTER DINER |

| 29th July 2007 Saskia | Mini Cory - From: Road Trip! The Left Coast of America You remind me of Binklebonk the tree gnome from Spike Milligan's epic fairytale 'Badjelly the Witch'. Track it down and read it, you'll see what I mean. |

| 18th July 2007 Dee | - From: The End of an Era: Curtain Call for "California Cory" Loved reading your very interesting discussion of the Yanks and their weird patriot games. |
| 18th July 2007 PMUsh | - From: The End of an Era: Curtain Call for "California Cory" dude! Cricket!! wow !!! |
| 13th July 2007 Pete | - From: Reno: Lucky 7s in the Biggest Little City in the World I thought it was a fake silver refinery? Lol, whatever... it's still fake either way, but they won't let me drink there like they do here... HUZZAH! Australia is great... I'm not sure if I'll ever leave... well, probably I will, but still. Did you check out the car museum there? 'tis awesome |
| 13th July 2007 Sarah T | - From: Reno: Lucky 7s in the Biggest Little City in the World I love your new slogans for the state of Nevada. Right on! |
| 13th July 2007 Ross | A Street Downtown - From: Reno: Lucky 7s in the Biggest Little City in the World I always see this sign and it cracks me up! I'm glad it's finally getting some picture recognition. |
| 11th July 2007 The Sushi Cowboy | Dysentery is cool - From: Follow the Trail of Beers Through Redwood City, Whose "Climate Is Best By Government Test" I'd call that colour "Bag-Your-Face Baby Sky Blue" or something along those lines. Props for going hard, I can attest to your "balls-to-the-wall" mentality. |
| 10th July 2007 Dana | Guess what - From: Follow the Trail of Beers Through Redwood City, Whose "Climate Is Best By Government Test" Technically Redwood City doesn't have the best weather; it tied with 2 other places. One being the Canary Islands and the second being North Africa's Mediterranean Coast. Redwood City is just trying to sound special. ^_^ Anyway, did you visit the new theatre? It's so pretty inside and it's humungous! |
| 10th July 2007 Feiko | trivial detail - From: Follow the Trail of Beers Through Redwood City, Whose "Climate Is Best By Government Test" Hey man... we'll look at seeing you soon. but in looking at the picture I can see that Curious George found some Ether?!? is this what a teacher wears in California? |
| 10th July 2007 Pattusa | 4th of July - From: Follow the Trail of Beers Through Redwood City, Whose "Climate Is Best By Government Test" And I enjoyed my 4th of July in Progreso, Yucatan, Mexico! What a hoot! Just as good as one in Texas! Enjoy your blog. Mine's at pattusa. |
| 1st July 2007 The Sushi Cowboy | Gin & Tonic - From: Pride Weekend in San Francisco You know what they say about people who drink gin, right? And you always sucked at chess. |
| 30th June 2007 Vanessa Vosseler | - From: Pride Weekend in San Francisco I can´t believe you are in san francisco i´m back in melbourne and flying home on the 12 july shit |
| 30th June 2007 johnnybones | - From: Pride Weekend in San Francisco Your photos are awesome. Makes me now regret that I didn't spend more time in San Fran. Yes, I said it, San Fran! But I'll be careful not to say that next time I am there. |
| 29th June 2007 Maestro the Vagabond | Real? - From: A Return to the Land of the Giants I'm not sure if Johno's comment is real or a joke. |
| 29th June 2007 ILoveMyCountry | pomme frites - From: A Return to the Land of the Giants Johno's comment is so funny because he's fat. |
| 21st June 2007 Michty6 | Urinals - From: A Return to the Land of the Giants Love the comment about the urinals, something that I have also thought it hilarious... I, however, am a maverick and would choose no.1 or 3 to deliberately flaunt the rules... Also the comment from Johno is hilarious! |
| 20th June 2007 Saskia | - From: Palo Alto Is My Kind of Town Palo Alto sounds wicked. I spent 3 weeks in the Bay Area when I was 19, and loved it. (Except the tax that gets added onto everything AFTER it gets rung up at the checkout.) I get really annoyed by people who make sweeping generalisations about America and Americans, particularly if all they have to go on are the actions of the current administration and loud tourists abroad. Last time I went to the States I was in Austin, Texas - not perhaps indicative of the mindset of all of Texas, but it was fantastic to have my preconceptions of the state (rednecks, JR Ewing, etc) well and truly challenged by this open-minded and welcoming city. Think I might add Palo Alto to my 'To visit someday' list. |
| 20th June 2007 cammy | - From: Palo Alto Is My Kind of Town you have a very small world.... |
| 20th June 2007 Danny Chavez | - From: Palo Alto Is My Kind of Town Hey dude are you still In CALI? Coming to LA? Let me know dude! By the way im the danny from Granada. |
| 12th June 2007 Pete, again | Also - From: A Return to the Land of the Giants the Man Law that states that we must have at least one urinal seperation is void if there are dividers, I quote: "6. Every man shall allow one empty urinal of separation in a bathroom with three or more urinals; law is void if there are dividers in between each urinal." |
| 12th June 2007 The Sushi Cowboy | Urinal - From: A Return to the Land of the Giants You would use #4 of course. But the real question is why the lone man would take urinal #2. All men should know that in an unoccupied bathroom you always choose the end stall. FACT! |
| 12th June 2007 Johno | Typical Canadian - From: A Return to the Land of the Giants Your lame, half-witted and typically Canadian comments about the US are pathetically unoriginal. To say that California is "No Canada" is to pretend that the world at large actually has any interest in whats happening in Canada whatsoever. With an entire population equal or lesser than California, how can you even draw comparisons with the great Golden State. Not to mention that the entire eastern half of the frozen land of Canada is filled with pompous, arrogant, self-aborsorbed French-canadians, so... arragont that even the real French won't even take them back. I understand that it's difficult to be hidden in the opulant shadow of such a great nation, but just look at the bright side of things. If it wasn't for the US, most of the people in the world probably wouldn't know that Canada even exists. |
| 12th June 2007 pilla | mr. maley - From: A Return to the Land of the Giants I love that the advertisements that head your blog are for "big beautiful women"; or is that the browser catering to my tastes? Hmmmm.. . .. Well, when and IF you're ready, holler at a {backgammon} player. I'd like to crush you, before or after Iran, your pick. -pilla (pillazee@gmail.com)- |
| 11th June 2007 Feiko | #4 of course (or use a stall) - From: A Return to the Land of the Giants well duuhh. Welcome back to the land of the Tall and the Tall loving women. If that theory were true I'd be a lot luckier, but since it is your joy to point out humanities inconsistencies and odd belief's I'll let you deal with worrying about height. Welcome back to high calorie intake land. |
| 11th June 2007 Pete | Man Law!!! - From: A Return to the Land of the Giants I choose number 4, the next male then has to choose 1, for it is the lesser of two evils |
| 11th June 2007 Jon Honneyman | Welcome home Homer - From: A Return to the Land of the Giants Well so it ends aye! What a grand adventure indeed. You have taken me to places I'll never be and shone me the lives and cultures of the people you've met. Welcome home young man, welcome home! Jon |
| 11th June 2007 LeAnn | Go Sluggers - From: A Return to the Land of the Giants Corey, Since you are back in CA, why don't you head over to the fields Tuesday and help out the Sluggers? 6:45. And if you can get some ladies to join you for 1 last hurrah, that would be great! Just throwing it out there, just throwing it out there... |
