Dear fellow free-baller,
We must unite! ..for the time may be short for those (myself) who find it difficult to reside in this place. Anyway, here's yet another spew...bleah! blargh!
Heard of Etsy ? It is the handmade zone for eBay/amazon-like activity. It could be the next place to sell your work, and create a steady stream of income to finance your more artistic endeavors. We both understand the need for such a stream. It is more focused than eBay, with seemingly high selling prices, as it may tap into that 'love artistic different stuff that mass manufacturers don't make in the USA, and I'm a little indie too, and have money to spend' crowd. Despite the omen's of $200/barrel oil and recession, people buy style.
Seriously though, there are some dopey folk selling crap-o-la on here... you could bust that out in approximately 15 minutes, including a wizz break. Just don't use your real name... then they'll never know. You could even make it seem like it's your gf who is creating everything. Could be fun, and more importantly in these dire times.... PROFITABLE!
Gimme some truth! (and some money, please).

Oh yeah, MAMA kicks Ramen's dehydrated ass!

Go Home!
Dear all single foreign men over the age of 45 currently in Thailand.... Go Home! Yes, you were rejected by your own society for being extremely deficient in social awareness of any sort, but that does not equate to a ticket here.... well, unfortunately, it does. Money is king for some, but it gets stupid when they try to approach the normal Thai folk with this demeanor.
My day thus far: Happy Mother's Day to my mum in the USA! I walked to meet K for lunch at a little kitchen restaurant, conversed with a Burmese friend, as well as a taxi driver. M, the Burmese man, is living in Thailand illegally, working without visa or work permit, as well as paying the police off $32usd each month to stay around. He works about 75 hours a week, and pulls in (after police tea money) $159usd a month, equaling around $2.11usd/hr. Kind of small, but it's more than he could pull in Yangoon, Myanmar where he holds a university degree in Chemistry. The taxi driver also pays the police $32usd a month to solicit tourist business in this touristy area. The cops make around $220-320usd a month, so I can understand why they do this (despite it's corrupt nature).
I thought I would record the events of my life in Krung Thep instead of letting them pass through my own memory, as they often seem to do.
