Thai-travellers-mag (1 Viewer)

There's a mag for travellers in Thailand named 'Farang' (speak like: 'Fuck' plus 'lung' minus the 'ck' inbetween!), which means 'foreigner', 'non-Asian'.
In the November 2006-issue there was a page with the 'Top-5-Drinkers of the 20th century' and BUK made it there. One could certainly discuss for hours and nights about their choice for the 'Top-5'. But, anyway - here it is:

Ha! I don't know about this one....BUK was certainly a big drinker, but not to the degree of abandon as a Dylan Thomas or Jack Kerouac.

I realize that this off the thread and maybe should be a new one but ... Modern Drunkard Magazine held a "Clash of the Tightest". Buk and Jackie Gleason went toe-to-toe in the final round. Check it out at : moderndrunkardmagazine.com in the archives.

cheers.

Not the Dylan Thomas
who once defined an alcoholic as "someone you don't like who drinks as much as you do."
