You Are What You Drink !!

Bartender's Psychology: Before you order a drink in public, read this! Seven New York City bartenders were asked if they could nail a woman's personality based on what she drinks. Though interviewed separately, they concurred on almost all counts. The results: Drink: Beer Personality: Causal, low-maintenance; down to earth. Your Approach: Challenge her to a game of pool.            Drink: Blender Drinks Personality: Flaky, whiny, annoying; a pain in the ass. Your Appr

Drunk People and Airplanes ??

I have always enjoyed beer, wine and spirits etc… but this week I have been traveling a lot and have seen 3 people refused boarding on flights because they were too drunk ?? I don’t mean happy or light headed drunk – but can’t walk or speak drunk…  Wow – If I paid lots of money for to fly anywhere and I knew I had to travel I might try to party a bit and squeeze out the last bit of fun from a vacation – but I am amazed that with these guys that the brake lights didn’t come on and they realized t

Bangkok Bar Hostesses ... The World's Greatest Used Car Salespeople ...

I recently said good bye to some friends who had come to Thailand for a visit...These folks had explored the seedier sides of Bangkok and had alot of fun...When they finally left they said they could not believe how much money they had spent and how much spirits they consumed .. They needed a holiday from their holiday ... I explained that in my opinion that Bangkok Bar Hostesses were in fact the worlds greatest used car sales people....  My observations is as follows ... My friends (Casanova

Questions I ask myself as my mind wanders ...

Sometimes as I sit in traffic, wander the streets of Bangkok or have a beer at a street-side bar my mind seems to generate questions .... I don't know if these are things others ask themselves when their far from home .... but I do ....  1)      I wonder if that was a cat or a rat ?2)      I wonder at what speed this taxi flies apart leaving my parts strewn all over the pavement ?3)      I wonder what that street vendor is BBQ’ing ?4)      I wonder where this taxi is taking me…have I been here b

Love is in the air .... ooooooo

Sooooo I went out with a friend for dinner then suggested that we would go out for a romantic walk around our street and check out the vendor wares... Dinner was wonderful and off we went for our late night stroll.....all was well until we got to a spot on the sidewalk between a bus shelter and a construction site...My date noticed a fellow taking a pee....then I noticed the fellow taking a pee....then she did a "double take" and I "double take" and we realized that this fellow was relieving h

Shoppping in Thailand !!

One interesting phenomena that I have been able to observe is that all my friends and family who visit me in Thailand, despite best their best efforts are attacked by the shopping bug!! I want to warn these poor unsuspecting individuals - “ABANDON ALL HOPE FOR YA HAVE HIT THE LAND SHOPPING !!” - People seem to start slowly then - WHAM !!! - they have melted their credit cards, mapped the fastest routes to over 1,500 ATMs and started to look for those shady clinics that will buy your blood !!!

Golfing !!

Golfing..... Golfing in Thailand (as well as around the world) is a significant social event, and also an important business tool.. My friends and colleagues know my unique golfing skills, which are highlighted by my complete ability to get every dime's worth in greens fee's by shooting in the low 160's - I have been reluctant to discuss my "handicap" around the board room table, but I was finally dragged to the course this past weekend...boy what an adventure... 1) Tee of times are negotiab

The Wailing Wall of Bangkok Airport

(Watching the world stumble by ...)A well known and engrained business in Thailand is prostitution. In some parts of the city you can't turn a corner without numerous young women, and men, seek to sell some sort of service. Apart from the challenging moral questions that this raises in North America, this is still the worlds oldest profession, and it has been perfected in Bangkok.  The scenario is basically this - some foreign guy arrives in Thailand and proceeds to be "picked -up" by the women
