Jack-Fruit Thorn Kiss or 1735 km

I was in Hoi-an, Vietnam, last year feeling sorry for myself because my adventures were drawing to a close. Just I was reaching the depths of the Long Dark Teatime of the Soul a head popped through the window of the cafe I was in. Its regular Vietnamese face asked in a strong American accent if I wanted to be an extra in a film. Well, I admit I declined but upon reflection I realised this was the kind of random event I had left Australia for. So I went looking for that head. I found it just around the next corner. It had acquired a body, a full film crew and crowd of on lookers. I sat on the opposite side of the canal waiting for my scene. I had to pretend to apreciate and buy some drawings from the lead actress. Her name currently eludes me but I'm told she is a great Vietnamese beauty. Anyway you decide; here's the trailer Jack-Fruit Thorn Kiss aka 1753km

Damn straight, and then we can go poke an anthill with short sticks for no reason other than that we want to poke an anthill with short sticks.

using sticks sounds a bit gender biased. Maybe we should just use generic, length challenged, items?
