Get this on your chest.* Do not wear a shirt or keep shirt unbuttoned entire time you are there.* Tell all you meet that tats are your life.



They will remember you.* Also if asked, make up your own translation for the situation.* That should just about do it.

Tats are pretty common now so that wouldn't be much of a transformation. I would think the way you dress and act would have the biggest impact, especially if it's opposit of the neighborhood.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Hummm even wearing a tinfoil hat wouldn't look out of place. This could be a difficult task.

I jumped three feet just looking at that picture. I could almost feel the cold nose!

Bald. Clean Shaven. All in white. Orange clogs. Multicolor fuzzy socks. Big gold earring in one ear.

Mr. Clean with a twist.

Kind of a gay twist, but a twist.

Go ahead and look chinese. Just tell everyone you're Korean or Thai or something. Nobody will know the difference. Except Koreans and Chinese people. But you will offend them anyway.

Re: I need transmorgrification help

OAP, remember the thread on men in skirts, kilts, and other un-bifurcated garments?* http://early-retirement.org/forums/i...p?topic=4442.0
But in SF, there might be nothing outstanding with skirted men.* Besides a skirt, what about adding "flowers in your hair", well maybe behind your ears with your short hair? Sorry, no better ideas.

And I just bought crocs a couple of months ago.* I like them; they're comfy with or without socks, but I just wear them around the house.* Mine are dark blue.

I've enjoyed your posts on getting rid of stuff and getting ready for your journeys.* Good luck and good health to you!

Re: I need transmorgrification help

I'm fairly offended that its the "ugly shoe of TH"

My shoes are very nice.

See Mario Batali for orange clogs...
