Hunting Parts for a Kujira Crown
After owning a 1971 MS60 for a few years now, I can tell you one thing: It’s been pretty damn near impossible to find spare parts for it. After spending countless hours trying to find parts overseas on the internet (because there were almost none advertised in Thailand even last year) that I could afford to have shipped here, we lucked out. Parts sellers started advertising in Thai forums. So to start with, I’ve ended up with a shipment sold as a set: My car is not missing any of these parts, but these are in better condition(the guy who sold me the car aptly described it as “faded glory”).…

Specifying a starting point in YouTube’s Flash 5 Player
In my previous post, I set an embedded video to start from a determined point partway through. The video was embedded with the new iframe tags (specifying HTML 5 instead of a Flash player, which is usable by a broader range of devices, but hasn’t been fully accepted by big developers like WordPress and ebay due to inherent security concerns). This is the new parameter, which is to be appended to the end of the video link in the embed code: #t=5m55s (above, m equals minutes and s equals seconds) ——————————- So in my previous post, the embed video code looks like this: <iframe title=”YouTube video player” width=”560″ height=”349″ src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/VLuHMB438gc#t=6m17s” frameborder=”0″…

This album contains explicit lyrics. Note: I set the video above to start playing midway through (to the part relevant to this post’s title); you can of course watch it from the beginning by adjusting the slider.

Why the newspaper died
At first I thought this was an early April Fools thing, but it wasn’t. The Bangkok Post was/is the widest circulated English language paper in Thailand (possibly initially funded by the OSS/State Department!), and printed a half-page article on how to properly shovel snow. In Thailand. Apparently, somebody sent a complaint to the editor that was printed in a subsequent issue. This was addressed by claiming that this article was pulled from a partner news source, which is just a ridiculous defense… They really should have claimed it was an early April Fools thing.

Food Dreams (CUTTLE FISH THE WATER)
Quite often, Max awakes from a deep sleep craving certain foods – strawberries seem to appear in his dreams quite often, as do hot dogs and toast with jam. Just now, I carried him from one room to another after he fell asleep, and he woke up kicking and screaming saying, “NO! I want to eat it! I want to eat it!” It was quite hilarious, except that he woke up Mina, or to be more specific, my laughing woke her up. Nam glared at me for a while, so I dove onto the bed next to Mina until she went to sleep again. ———————– The photo above was taken…

Thailand’s Got Talent
—————– A few years ago, I had a conversation that went like this: LostSoul: I accidentally slept with a guy, I thought he was a girl. JY: Yeah, I hear stories about that all the time. LostSoul: The thing is, I can’t get her our of my mind. I want to see her again. Does that mean I’m gay? JY: It doesn’t mean you’re gay. It just means you like fucking guys.

Jammin’ solo
Max was so jazzed about playing his toy guitar, we broke down and ordered a real one off the internet. It’s called a Plum Blossom, if I remember correctly. I arranged for one of my second year students to come give him lessons once a week, but it’s just too soon. He won’t play when we want him to, and often just ignores people he doesn’t know. Ah well, at least I got some photos, and the guitar is being kept safe for if he shows an interest again. —————— I’m posting a bunch of phonecam photos in the coming days, so please forgive the craptastic quality.
