Some noteables:Britney Spears on her first tour: "Where the hell is Australia anyway?" Mariah Carey on the death of the King of Jordan: "I loved Jordan. He was one of the greatest athletes of our time." The late Anna Nicole Smith on suicide bombers: "Doesn't that hurt?" Jessica Simpson on her first day at high school: "A teacher asked us if anybody knew the names of the continents. I was sooo excited. I was like, Damn it! It's my first day of 7th grade, I'm in junior high and I know this answer.
AOMORI, JAPAN—At first glance, 17-year-old Misaki Nakajima seems like any other shy and submissive Japanese schoolgirl. She loves shopping, text messaging, and the color pink. But beneath her wholesome exterior lies a wicked secret: Misaki Nakajima is consumed by sexual fantasies involving sweaty, middle-aged American men.
"I can't explain it," said Nakajima, dressed in a pleated miniskirt and pure white knee socks. "There's just something about American men who are at least twice my age a
I've attended a few of the TF events and taken a side trip with some TF members on this visit to Thailand and have been having a heck of a time getting all of the pics uploaded onto Flickr from my hotel internet connection. Well, I finally got that ironed out and have all of my photos up. I haven't captioned them properly yet but I thought I would share them in the state that they are in.Fancy Dress PartyGreat RaceChiang Mai (Part 1)Chiang Mai (Part 2)Red Faces Event Night at Diva Nightclub Here
I'm looking for one or more Thais who can write in English for a website. Specifically, I'm looking to get the Thai point of view on various topics and since the readership is mostly farang the writing would need to be in English.
I'll provide some topics and you would be expected to write an approx 250+ word response based on your personal views.
If you have an interest ping me. .
Quick question . . . .I was thinking about paying some people in Thailand to do some tasks for me. I had imagined that this would run me a few hundred or maybe a thousand baht per job as it is really pretty straightforward. What's the best way to transfer someone money in such amounts? I did a quick search and it seems like PayPal's fees are so egregious that it's not an option (2.5% FX plus 50 baht). Any other options that are popular in Thailand?
I've been buried in work the last few months and haven't posted much here. I pop in once or twice a week to read but haven't done much contributing.Anyway, according to my travel agent I will be back in BKK in a few weeks so hopefully I'll get to see some of the crazy TF crowd while I'm in town.

Dear Professor Millington,
Thank you for your letter of March 16. After careful consideration, I
regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me
an assistant professor position in your department.
This year I have been particularly fortunate in receiving an unusually
large number of rejection letters. With such a varied and promising field

I ran across this guy's website and as I read through some of his journal entries he's got a few that leave me laughing so hard I start to cry. This is one of those posts. When I see people wearing Crocs, I know immediately that we have nothing in common, and that we could never be friends or have any meaningful kind of relationship. They come in every color imaginable yet look bad with every other article of clothing ever created. The only thing that goes with Crocs is social ostracism.. . . F
(19 April 2007, Phnom Penh, Cambodia) Unwanted amorous advaces on a heifer resulted in a man's death at the hooves of the violated bovine. Sounds of a scuffle culminated in the discovery of his naked body lying beneath the frightened family cow. Injuries to his head and genital area were consistent with being kicked to death. Why did he do it? The man's divorce had become final a mere 10 days prior to his fateful final fling. In the divorce, and also a previous divorce, his ex-wives cited h
Today I took a boat up the river and stopped at Wat Pho to take some photographs of the Reclining Buddha.
Before I had left out for the day I had heard that the King’s elder sister had unfortunately passed away the previous night due to complications arising from cancer. Since the palace is only a short walk from Wat Pho I decided to see if it was open or if it would be closed for the full fifteen day mourning period.
As I came up on the river side of the compound I noticed that p
Looks like I'm the first one to document the crazy evening organized by the lovely Aom. Things started out at Paragon, moved over to Central World, and then eventually ended up at Absolute 7. Actually it ended around 3am at a food stall after several failed attempts to find a bar serving booze but that's a story unto itself. What a very fun evening! I got to meet a lot of new TF'ers and learned some things about people I already knew.Anyway, here's my pics:http://www.flickr.com/photos/bill

It looks like I'll be back in the LOS from Dec 22 - Jan 11 (much longer than my 5 day stay last trip). After all that went into booking this trip I'll need the holiday. :-) As I had to be out in India on business in December anyway I thought a trip to the LOS would be a great way to end the year. So I book the flights, hotels, etc. Only problem is my India visa expired in Oct and I need a new one. No problem since the last one only took a week. I'll fly out to London, drop off my passport
Stunningly ugly! San Diego, CA court has a page up on their website featuring prostitutes who have been convicted and what the terms of their probation. El Cajone Police website If anything in the world proves that prostitution will exist regardless of the laws a government may try to use to stop it the photos of Deborah Roach, Colleen Rock and Gladys Roth should drive the point home. The fact that they could be in the profession speaks to the amount of demand out there (and the low standar
A GEELONG Cats supporter wanting a permanent reminder of the team's AFL triumph is ruing his decision to get the tattoo done overseas, after the tattooist wrote the team were "Gay Premiers 2007". In a celebratory trip to Thailand, last week, "Neville", the dyed-in-the-wool Cats fan had 15 cans of beer to ease the pain of the five-and-a-half-hour experience.
He paid $150 for the privilege. And to ensure the Phuket tattooist got it right, he wrote down exactly what he wanted on his righ
Thai police have arrested a hospital security guard who allegedly killed at least seven fellow security guards and seriously injured another 10 for sleeping on the job. Wittaya Jaikhan, 30, was arrested yesterday, ending a five-month-long police manhunt for the serial killer of security guards in Bangkok and neighbouring provinces. Wittaya, who has confessed to the killing spree, attributed his rampage to professional outrage. "I hate guards who fall asleep on the job and don't perform their dut
A STRIPPER performed for a classroom full of British teenagers, spanked a birthday boy and asked him to rub cream all over her after a booking error by the teen's mother. It is believed the mother thought she had booked a gorillagram to rush into her 16-year-old son’s classroom for a birthday surprise - but a stripper turned up instead. The Daily Mail said the teenager's mother had told the teacher beforehand that a “birthday surprise” would walk in during the class and requested that it
HEBRON, CT (NBC) -- It may have seemed like an emergency at the time, but a Connecticut man is now regretting his call to 911.
35-year-old Brian Poulin of Hebron was arrested Sunday after police said he called 911 several times and asked them to bring him beer.
Hebron was charged with disorderly conduct.
Police said he called 911 numerous times and told the dispatcher he was out of beer and asked them to pick up more for him.

I never liked cricket much but I may start getting into the sport.
