  1. They must have thought they were crossing the US southern border.
  2. Same experience at Swampy last week. JAL 777 packed in coach from NRT. No lines at immigration late evening.
  3. This space junk probably came from a wet market in Wuhan.
  4. And today the Baht strengthened—but I’m not complaining yet…
  5. And Walking Street, I might add. But only for the music and Turkish ice cream…
  6. In the USA, you can check a hand gun and rounds when you fly domestically. You need an appropriate gun license, and you must declare the items at check-in. Not sure what’s legal flying domestically in Thailand.
  7. Who needs western tourists, anyway? Got plenty of spenders from Laos, Myanmar, Maylasia and India.
  8. This begs the question: isn’t our beloved T.V. parent company owned by the Chinese now?
  9. Good thing we have a crack police outfit working on this.
  10. Sad news, sorry for the poor chap. With all the new highway construction projects—I avoid night drives. Street lighting, reflectors and painted lane lines really help—but they’re typically the last installations in each project. And too many motorcycles have no visible taillights.
  11. I just checked my wallet—seems I’m a little short of 40 mill. Guess I’ll have to stay in the house I built for my wife a bit longer…
  12. Russia, China, North Korea, Iran—birds of a feather…
  13. To your point, it’s curious how the government frets about a high USD, but when the Pound, Euro or any western currency tops out—they don’t have too many concerns.
  14. Will Big Brother (the world’s #1 polluter) attend this conference?
  15. We need photographic evidence. Will the police demand a re-enactment of this crime?
  16. Relax. It’s just my theory—mainly for conjecture and some amusement. No need to get hot and bothered about it. Besides—it worked perfectly again today. US Stocks up a tad—Baht up on USD a tad. Let me have some fun…
  17. USD up nicely, but the formula holds. When US stocks tank—Baht follows down. Would love to sell stocks to convert to Baht—but this small time investor only sells stocks when they rise.
  18. Go to any mall on a weekend. Parking lots full with late model cars and trucks. Where do they get the money? More from credit than cash.
  19. KGB Putin—things not going so well, so he plays the nuke card. Why don’t his countrymen stop him?
  20. I believe currency fluctuations are much greater in Thailand. Corporations don't want to worry about future exchange rates. Vietnam's currency seems more stable.
