The King - Then And Now

Someone in Thailand took some well known photos of the late Thai King and placed them in front of the present day background.

Views Of Bangkok

I've always felt that Bangkok is one of the more photogenic modern cities.  Here are some pics that I've nicked from the web over the last few months.

Life Up Your Life

You have to feel sorry for the copywriters at Ad agencies these days.  I'm sure all the good slogans are gone, and if you want to be original, you simply have to make things up - like this condo ad, where they used the word life as verb, while still using it as a noun in the same sentence.  

Soon, we'll see a restaurant ad that says - Don't Forget to Eat up Your Eats!!!

Champions Of Life

Apparently, the owner of my local car wash is a die-hard Tennessee Volunteers fan and had these creamsicle-colored couches in his waiting room made to match the UT end zones.

New Factory Merit Making

My company doubled the size of the factory several months ago and to ensure good sales and good luck, we had a merit making ceremony this week.

Here are some more pics of the factory.

Tooth Fairy Jackpot

It's been a rough few weeks for cats in our home.  Kittie is chasing the big gecko in the sky, and Tipper is back at the vets.  She has feline leukemia (AIDs for cats), and gets gum infections every month or so.  This time the doctor said some of her teeth were quite bad and she would need surgery, which is a big deal for animals because they must be completely knocked-out.  

This happened while I was in Korat, so Nuch sent me some pictures.  Here's Tipper in her recovery cage.  

Although I knew gum surgery is serious for pets, I was a bit surprised (and as you can see, Tipper is still in shock), when Nuch sent me the picture of all the teeth that were removed.  Fortunately, cats come with 30 teeth because I count about 15 in this plastic bag.

Real Ink BKK

Last weekend, Nuch and I went to one of our favorite Italian restaurants and Nuch tried the authentic Squid Ink Pasta.

Accident Waiting To Happen

Fortunately, the authorities shut this down before the crocs realized the real treats were just a punctured pontoon away.

Seattle Trip Continued

Here are some more pics from Seattle with my Dad and Maggie.

I thought Seattle was supposed to be grey with a constant drizzle
