siampolee Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) Paradorn Srichaphan is a former Thai tennis player that was ranked 9th in the world in 2003. He had bagged 5 championships during his career before suffering from a chronic wrist injury that forced him to retire in 2010. A chronic wrist injuru !!! Let's be fair about it that ''chronic wrist injury'' will put Paradon into the main club of members of parliament of all parties many of whom suffer from ''chronic wrist injuries'' caused by parliamentary business. it's rather like a palsy in its actions and often at 99 shakes there comes a personal relief for the member from the palsy type action.

chainarong Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Generally sportsmen don't make good politicians , too much is expected of them right from the start , they are also pretty good sorts of people, it is very intimidating being shouted down twelve hours a day , with the odd deformation charge , threats against himself and family and some gentle brow beating from the staunch leaders in the community , may stem much interest after six months.

Popular Post ginjag Posted December 30, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2013 Paradorn said he would try with no STRINGS attached and be of good SERVICE to the people by COURTting with a party. He would SLAM anyone and fire a VOLLEY of lead if they prevented his ambition. So A-FORHAND he is swatting, The BASELINE is he is new but will LOBby others who would LOVE to help. Starting at GRASS roots, he will only get NET income. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My apologies I have a stupid northern England sense of humour, In Linclonshire it is a way of life to us humble people, We use this silliness on most days. I think the English have this twist of words, puns keeps us going at times, has to do when you have a tory government with a wet flannel leader up front. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tx22cb Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 With the Dems not fielding candidates, Bangkok seats are up for grabs. 'suppose Paradon has a good chance as any. However, Dems politicians must vote on 2 Feb - I think there's a law whereby a person cannot be an MP if s/he did not vote in the previous general elections.
