You've seen some of the goings on from last nights party at Absolute 7, but believe me, there was so much more!! It was a great party and even though the rains came and tried to put a damper on things, the party went off without a hitch!! Everyone came with their happy faces on . . . great conversations . . meeting people for the first time that we only know through this site. Seeing old friends, new friends . . . it was just great!! Some members even took the opportunity to get up on stage
No, I didn't do
the 4 and 1/2 hour forced march from

What great fun!!
Thank you Ghee for being
such a gracious host!!

Time to give credit to where credit is due. Although I take some of the photos, many are taken by my wife, MonKeyPhong. And she does a great job too!! There was quite a large turnout for last nights(thursday) party even though many had to get up early and go to work today. We had a great time as we always do when TFers gather together. Here are some photos of last nights event . . .

UNDER CONSTRUCTION
Have you ever noticed at a
construction site
there may be 10 or more workers
standing around
while 1 person is working??
This may be because they are Union workers.
In Unions, 1 person will handle the shovel,
another the wheelbarrow,
etc . . .etc . . .
Here is a photo of a typical worksite
where all the workers are standing around
watching 1 person work . . .
Have a wonderful day!!!
(don't work too hard)
Yes . . It rained hard last night!!That didn't stop these TFers.Have a look . . .

Have a great night!!
WELL . . .
I know what I was thinking.
A year ago today, I decided to become a member of ThailandFriends.com.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO ME !!!
I thought to myself . . .
"What a great way to make new friends and learn all about Thailand at the same time."
And I was right!!! ThailandFriends has become a mainstay in my life.
I have met so many wonderful people here . . .
I like to call you "My TF Family"
Saturday, My wife Phong (MonKeyPhong) and I will be attending the "M
An elderly Chinese woman had two large pots, each hung on the ends of a pole, which she carried across her neck.
One of the pots had a crack in it while the other pot was perfect and always delivered a full portion of water, at the end of the long walk from the stream to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full.
For a full two years this went on daily, with the woman bringing home
only one and a half pots of water.
Of course, the perfect pot was proud of its acco
Life is great. Such a wonderful gift. There's so much to do and so much to see and so much to learn.
So why do so many people become depressed?? In a word . . "routine". We can not avoid it. In relationships,
jobs or social activities, "routine" creeps in and takes over. Let's begin with jobs. Some jobs are much more interesting and challenging than others. Jobs that require
travell, many different kinds of knowledge or dealing with different people provide a good defence against

SCAM WARNING
If someone comes to your front door saying they are
conducting a survey on deer ticks and asks you to take your
clothes off and dance around to shake off the ticks, do not
do it!
IT IS A SCAM; they only want to see you naked.
I wish I knew about this yesterday. I feel so stupid.
For those of you attending the TF parties this weekend . . .
Phong and I will see you there!!!
Have a great holiday weekend!!

Yes . . . there were three . . three . . . three parties in one Friday night at Livingstones. (Sukhumvit Soi 33) We celebrated Kitty's and Stu_thailand's birthdays as well as I_Love_Som_Tom's return from Iraq. There was a great TF turnout!! And the buffet was excellent!! The drinks were flowing and it appeared everyone had a great time. Here are some photos from this festive occasion . . .
Have a wonderful Sunday!!!
We didn't take too many photos last night, but the ones we did take came out great!!
It's always enjoyable for Phong and I to meet some of the TFers that we've only met online.
Once the conversation gets going though, it's like we've known each other forever.
Join me in wishing Smily and Anna good luck on their journeys to Europe!!
Here are some photos . . .
Here we are with more "Adventures at the Dentist's Office". . . but before I get into that, I just want to say that this past weekend turned out to be an expensive one for me. Friday morning, my computer decided it wasn't going to run anymore. I could get to the Desktop Menu, but then it would just cut off. I tried starting in the "Safemode" . .that didn't work. I kept getting a blue screen telling me that one of my disks needed to be checked for consistancy. Of course, being the great comp
For the 3rd time in less than a month I made my way to the dentists office today. Not my favorite thing to do, but today I was to be fitted for a temporary plate and make it look like I have some teeth in there. lolActually, I still have all my bottem teeth . . . and my two front teeth!! A few weeks ago, I woke up and the right side of my face was all swollen. It was caused by a loose tooth . . but not loose enough where I felt I could get it out myself. So off to the dentist I go. The den
. . . of one of my kids!!! A guy goes to the supermarket and notices a beautiful blond woman wave
at him and say hello. He's rather taken aback, because he can't place
where he knows her from.
So he says, "Do you Know me?"
To which she replies, "I think you're the father of one of my kids."
Now his mind travels back to the only time he has ever been unfaithful
to his wife and says, "My God, are you the stripper from my bachelor
party that I made love to on the pool table with all
WOW!! What a great weekend!! Phong and I had decided to spend the weekend in Sukhumvit. After checking in at "Honey House" on Soi 22, we were off to the Emporium for a meal and to find a gift for Poonie. Then it was off to "The Duke of Wellington" where we met up with Grezzy and Greer. Grezzy couldn't come Saturday night to "Gullivers" cuz she had to work. After some great conversation and a few drinks, it was back to "Honey House" for some freshening up and a little rest before going to
Flyers Beware...........
This is scary for anyone who travels frequently by plane!!!!Actual crack in a US Airways Boeing 737 window frame! Flyers beware
of the sub standard maintenance on the airplanes that you fly on. This
is an actual crack that was found in the window frame on a 737. I'd
definitely think twice before flying USAir.
Had to make you laugh today......Have a great night!!!
Like all of you, I've been spending alot of time watching the little green bars at the bottem of the screen move ever so slowly while waiting for the page to change. In fact, they can be very hypnotizing . . kind of put me in a trance. Some of you may call that daydreaming, which would be true if I was actually daydreaming. It's more like brain death. But, I've had much more time to dissect each page I go to. I always read each profile I go to, but now I check the punctuation, abbreviations,
From time to time my crazy collection of photos builds up. Here are some I'd like to share.Enjoy . . ."Hey Papa!! Where's my cheeseburger??" What happened to the guy that was sitting next to her?? My girlfriend would never do anything behind my back!! Thanks for the warning . . . Let me take this last photo before it starts to rain!! Proof that marriage exists in the animal kingdom. Do you read 'all' the road signs?? Would you buy a romance novel from this guy?? And last . . but certainly not
Sally was driving home from one of her business trips in Northern Arizona
when she saw an elderly Navajo woman walking on the side of the road.
She stopped the car, and asked the woman if she would like a ride.
With a silent nod of thanks, the woman got into the car.
Resuming the journey, Sally tried in vain to make a bit of small talk with the Navajo woman.
The old woman just sat silently, looking intently at everything she saw,
studying every little deta
Memory was something you lost with age
An application was for employment
A program was a TV show
A cursor used profanity
A keyboard was a piano
A web was a spider's home
A virus was the flu
A CD was a bank account
A hard drive was a long trip on the road
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived
And if you had a 3 inch floppy . .
. . you just hoped nobody ever found out!
Have a great weekend!!
