Sorry… I just couldn’t resist using the AI image today. That’s wild– and pretty inaccurate!
I’m sharing this video I made a couple of days ago. It’s the story of how Bill and I went on a beer spa/Fucking themed tour in Austria. Now… it’s not what you might be thinking. In Austria, there are/were a couple of places that have names with the word “fuck” in them. One of those places, “Fucking”, has since changed the spelling of its name to Fugging because of tourists.
Anyway… that trip included a visit to the Starkenberger Beer Pool and Hotel Moorhof, where there is a beer spa. We also visited “Fuckersberg”, which is basically a big field. And then, I had a profound, peaceful experience in a random Italian restaurant, when I ran into a Buddhist monk. I wrote about these experiences in 2015, but I notice a lot of people are interested… especially in Fuckersberg. So, I’m sharing the video, which includes some photos. Enjoy!
And… just as an afterthought, here’s a video I made in which I talk about going to a nude spa for the first time. That is another popular topic on this blog. The video was inspired by one I made about “the right to be ugly”, which I feel like I’ve earned at my age. 😉
Fugging! 🙂
I once tried to read Norman Mailer’s “The Naked and the Dead,” a novel he wrote about soldiers in the Pacific Theater during WWII. (Mailer had been an Army cook during the campaign to liberate the Philippines from the Japanese.) Apparently, it’s a good novel, and Mailer considered it was his most renowned work. But I couldn’t read it because it was published in 1948 and the publisher told the then 25-year-old author he couldn’t use the word “fuck.” Instead, Mailer had to use the word “fug.”
I’m usually able to get behind alternatives to naughty words, but my mind can’t cope with “fug.” Weird, huh?
Great post!
Thanks.
Always a pleasure to read your posts and watch your videos!
