Remember what I said about problems cropping up at the last minute? Well, guess what. Nam’s desktop pc broke this week with most of our wedding planning data on it – irrecoverable. Then just as I finished loading all of the necessary stuff on my laptop last night, the hard drive failed – unbootable.
Dammit.
Gotta figure something out.

Denim is the proud uniform of the Thai working class
And also isn’t allowed in the imperial palace, if I remember correctly. So for those who were going to pack jeans, pack khakis or something else instead.
Giant Catfish
I know fishing parks are kinda wack, but check out what’s in the stocked lakes at the Hua Hin Fishing Resort.
UPDATE: The owner of the park states specifics about what’s been stocked here.
Prince on SNL
You gotta see this.
Nacho Libre
After seeing this trailer, I have some hope that Jack Black’s next movie will KICK ASS.
Last Minute
It’s funny how the day before you leave for an extended break, problems have an uncanny way of popping up all at once.
I am in evasion mode…. Just call me stealth ninja, baby.
I will be picking up a cell as soon as I hit Bangkok and will post the number here and over at the airset site. Nam already has one so we’ll send out that info at the same time.
Four hours before the end of work. Time to wrap things up.
Proper Recourse
So a newspaper prints a cartoon depicting your god/deity/religious figure in an unflattering way, and you’re like all indignant and enraged like the Iron Sheik, right? What do you do? March and demonstrate? Ban the newspaper? Burn down the embassy of the offending country the newspaper was printed in, plus a few others for good measure?
No, this is a perfect chance to utilize the Muslim Man Complaint Box.
Two days until departure…
It’s getting very hard to concentrate.
Thoughts on Google Video
Exploring the depths of Google Video is kind of like flipping through a giant record collection. 99% of what you find is chaff, so discovering the occassional gem is exciting. Word of mouth about good selections gets around quickly so certain works become popular overnight. It’s a lot more rewarding, somehow, finding that one work that really tickles your own fancy, even though it might not appeal to other people.

Is the name of the song. Check out this video someone laid down to it:
The creator says this is “footage from local library of international driving instructions.”
I really like looking at instructional videos and cars from that era. I remember we still had “What to Do in Case of Nuclear Attack” (duck and cover!) posters on the wall at my elementary school. Even back then, I knew they were remnants from another time.
