It wouldn't be particularly hard to make me look like a total dickhead, especially after a box of free beers. However, if I should agree to have a role, my plan is thus:Hello there Pedro,
I've read a few of your khmer440 articles after I briefly met you in Battambang 5 years ago. You were hanging with a Welshman and a 25 yo Aussie.
Currently I am making an independent documentary series on interesting expats.
Would you be intetested in getting a beer? (If you're still in Cambodia)
Cheers,
a) Really exaggerate my position with in the local community.
b) Wear a suit and hat like the man from del Monte, tell them I are a hero who the locals call 'Big Bong Thom Don Pedro'.
c) Pay the nearest villagers to all stand outside their houses and cheer as I drive past, perhaps waving flags.
d) Tell them how I earned the locals eternal respect by hunting and killing foreign pedos & drug dealers.
e) Sit on my porch in the twilight and wave a machete across the horizon, explaining 'This is my hunting ground and I can never leave because I need to protect the local people, good people, my people.'
It's either that or
f) Get my face pixelated out and my voice changed to Darth Vader as I drunkenly ramble on about drugs, whores and guns.
Would you bother?
