Heinz (or any) tinned soup
My soup is basically a Thai soup or 'Gaeng Juut' which excludes the potatoes. I also make a type of chilli con carne and tuna mornay for 'soft eaters', which is also good for freezing. -

Taking pics bored farangs
During the years I lived in Pattaya, I did a lot of street photography with my trusty Canon EOS DSLR camera. It was a pro-am model (70D) but a lot of farang figured I was a photo journaalist or pro photographer of some sort. I was asked too many times to count why I was taking photos. I only did "legit" street photography in areas where there was no expectation of privacy. I never took shots of individual farang interacting with girls. I still got plenty of "why" questions, often asked in an angry tone of voice. I gave one of two answers, depending on circumstances. First answer: "I'm on assignment for The New York Times to capture a photo to illustrate a front-page story on the hunt for pedophiles in Asia." Second answer; "I'm the advance ground producer for Dog the Bounty Hunter TV series. Dog will be doing a special on the estimated 10,000 farang with active warrants hiding in Thailand. We'll be filming a lot in this area." I usually said that about New Plaza, Soi Buakhao and parts of the Darkside and Jomtien. Reactions ranged from peals of laughter to outrage I thought wiuld turn physical. The U.S. sense of humor is difficult for many Pattaya residents to grasp. -

Why do receipts cost so much?
The 2000 fine comes with a receipt so the money is added to the office 'pot' and the IO probably gets a share (much less than1000). The 1000 goes straight into the IO s pocket. -

Tourist Van Accident in Prachuap Khiri Khan: 8 Injured, 1 Dead
You are correct of course - to proportion driver fault in this individual incident we need to ignore all the other observations we see on a daily basis... such as... ... Speeding Mini-Van ... Mini-Van being driven erratically ... Many vehicles with poor tyres (low / missing tread) As you point out, its easy to jump the obvious conclusions that this van was being driven very poorly by a lunatic driver but there is no proof of that. ... Thus - we can only make assumptions and discuss.... we could be wrong in assuming this van was being driven very poorly - my guess is the driver was driving like a complete ayhole and the reason I guess that is that this accident fits the pattern of so many others... Just yesterday I saw a number of dangerous things on the roads. - Pickup cars - speeding swerving - Vans being driven erratically and tailgating - Big Trucks with no tread on the tires (observed on slow moving traffic) So... why we can be certain - we can throw out a good guess and those who are suggesting driver fault are more likely to be correct than not, IMO. -

Schools Advised Trans Teachers Must Share Showers and Lavatories with Female Colleagues
The only positive thing about katoeys is that they don't regard themselves as women nor do they insist that you regard them as such, they are just katoeys. I remember once that a katoey approached me in a cafe/bar when my wife went to the toilet, he took great delight in making me feel uncomfortable, asking me whether I thought he was desirable and if I would like his phone number for some sex, he knew I wasn't interested but liked to watch me squirm with embarrassment as I tried to stay polite, he disappeared quickly when my wife returned, laughing as he went. -
