Pulling A Jim Thompson


Does this man look fed up with modern society?

Jim Thompson was a former OSS/CIA agent turned Thai silk baron that mysteriously disappeared into the jungles of Malaysia. No remains were ever found. Was he abducted and cannibalized? Or did he say fuck everything and bail out on modernity?

I often contemplate my ability to relinquish the confines of modern life. And each time I venture into the jungle, forsaking everything except my primal instincts, I wind up mortally wounded or horribly disfigured.

Fortunately, my plan to 'pull a Jim Thompson' has never come to fruition, other than in the dark recesses of my mind.
