We had a run in with a group of South Eastside Tarsiers in the province of Bohol yesterday. We were on a "tour" of the country side when we stopped at what seemed to be a small roadside honey stand. (I mean who doesn't appreciate fresh natural honey on their biscuits early in the morning. To me, this is like a slice of home even while abroad.) The afternoon quickly turned dark as we were approached by the alpha-male of the group who identified himself at Teddy Ruxbin. He demanded all of my pesos, my iphone (so he could keep in touch with his crew more efficiently and listen to Animal Collective), and Jeremy's Rayban Wayfarers. Apparently the Tarsier Indie / Hipster scene is larger than I thought. We did as told and he let us go without incident.
Despite our rough encounter, I still want to bring three to America, dress them in tiny Lost Boys Costumes, take them to the 3rd street promenade in Santa Monica, and have them re-enact the dinner scene from Hook when Peter Pan finds out he still does believe. $$$
