Getting
your ears pierced at this jewelry boutique in Bangalore, India, is
not for the faint of heart.

Barkery
Perhaps this is where dogs from Taipei,
Taiwan go to buy their little doggie pastries.
|

Cinema
It's
hardly a multiplex, but you can catch coming attractions at this
movie theater in Cebu, Philippines.

Coking
In a Panama City hotel room AFTER
Noriega.

Farto
This
Brazilian drug store must do a bang-up business on Pepto Bismol.
|

 |
Indecent
Behavior
Kandy,
Sri Lanka's second largest city, has a romantic, idyllic botanical
garden. Lovers apparently have pushed too far for the conservative
Buddhist taste.

Mass
Grave
This
sign is "withouth" humor at the Choeung Ek Killing
Fields a half an hour outside Phnom Penh, Cambodia. |
|

Nepal
Bumps
They
look like speed bumps on the road to understanding. Just what this
sign in Pokhara, Nepal, is trying to convey is anyone's guess.

Immigration
Trying
to get through Nepal immigration can be an exhausting experience.

Paino
Just
how bad IS the music in this bar in Taipei, Taiwan? |
|

Porn
Bangalows
In
spite of Thailand's reputation in the sex trade, the Porn family
in Phuket, Thailand owns these misspelled bungalows. |
|
 |
Stick
Unwanted
posters and advertising are a sticking point with the city council
in Bangalore,
India. So they've painted these signs on civic buildings.

There's
no modesty with these restaurateurs in Venezuela.

Torture
A
chilling message from the murderous reign of the Khmer Rouge
is posted in a former prison and torture chamber, now the Museum
of Genocide, in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Be sure to read #’s

Yelling
In Taipei,
Taiwan, a dental clinic's pitch for customers is a real scream.

Korean
Duck Signs
Signs
written in Korean, and erected near duck habitat at a Christchurch
golf course, inform the patrons that killing the tame water fowl
with golf clubs, then stuffing the birds into golf bags for a
later dinner, is not a good idea and please stop.

Durian
The
aphrodisiac properties of durian has long been debated. What
isn't in dispute is the tropical fruit's smell. Durian's strong
odor changes little, from when it first enters its consumer until
it leaves out the back end. A hotel room boilerplate in an East
Malaysian hotel, in addition to the typical "no noise after
11," and "no over night visitors," also includes, "no
durians may be brought or eaten in the room.”

Nepalese
Graffiti
In
Nepal, graffiti that says, "Vote for tree" with simply
drawn trees competes with, "Vote for Sun" written beside
rough yellow circles. The democratic party is "Tree," the
communists "Sun." Because of widespread illiteracy,
these basic, everyday symbols are campaign emblems for voters
to know which party receives their ballot. |
