Shakespeare used soliloquy in Hamlet, Macbeth and elsewhere...'Big Brother' and 'Survivor' use on-camera soliloquies...so why not ThaiVisa? Makes me think of this near 30-year old 'Saturday Night Live' routine:

Jane Curtin: Well, the 1970's are in their final month, and with some thoughts on this

decade and the one we're about to enter, here's Weekend Update's Social Sciences Editor

Al Franken.

Al Franken: Thank you, Jane. Well, the "me" decade is almost over, and good riddance,

and far as I'm concerned. The 70's were simply 10 years of people thinking of nothing

but themselves. No wonder we were unable to get together and solve any of the many

serious problems facing our nation. Oh sure, some people did do some positive things in

the 70's - like jogging - but always for the wrong reasons, for their own selfish,

personal benefit. Well, I believe the 80's are gonna have to be different. I think that

people are going to stop thinking about themselves, and start thinking about me, Al Franken.

That's right. I believe we're entering what I like to call the Al Franken Decade. Oh, for

me, Al Franken, the 80's will be pretty much the same as the 70's. I'll still be thinking

of me, Al Franken. But for you, you'll be thinking more about how things affect me,

Al Franken. When you see a news report, you'll be thinking, "I wonder what Al Franken

thinks about this thing?", "I wonder how this inflation thing is hurting Al Franken?"

And you women will be thinking, "What can I wear that will please Al Franken?", or "What

can I not wear?" You know, I know a lot of you out there are thinking, "Why Al Franken?"

Well, because I thought of it, and I'm on TV, so I've already gotten the jump on you.

So, I say let's leave behind the fragmented, selfish 70's, and go into the 80's with a

unity and purpose. That's what I think. I'm Al Franken. Jane?

Ummmmm...

I'm going to try and read the OP later today after consuming a quantity of Archa.

ermmm.... who's al franken?

Oh! Never mind. I don't really care.

Now, where's that thread about me?

'so-LIL-uh-quee' is the common way to pronounce it.

It means – to disclose your innermost thought (whatever they are) regardless of any hearers nearby, or talking/revealing any of your inner thoughts and secretes as if you’re alone.

Well I don't have any right now, as mine is usually pop during showering!

Just in case it went unnoticed with all the baby doings on ThaiVisa, Princess Kiko had a baby too. The baby boy is now third in line to the Imperial Throne of Japan. 'Guess the Imperial publicist didn't get around to the Isaan Forum.

Mother and baby are both doing well.

great... wonderful.. anywway!!! BACK TO ME!

Mr. Kayo -- 9 posts a day average for over 3 years on Thaivisa -- that qualifies you for [email protected] and you can start your own thread about you with all the world's adolescents

BTW Al Franken's website is http://alfranken.com/ One of his best-selling books is "Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot and Other Observations" so he may have a title ready for you

Ummmmm...

I think I know what you are on about, a touch spiteful though.
