With the high value of the Baht and the decline of the Dollar – I am feeling the pinch, tightening my belt and staying home more. Thank God for DVD movies and plenty of friends who love to watch them.
Thailand – I hope will try to slow down the climb – it is hurting their exports – Damn, when I came here it was 40 Baht/Dollar – NOW almost 30 Baht/Dollar
Getting hard to survive.
Hey Obama – get your shit together and stop the decline.
Vote out the self-serving bloodsuckers and vote in Representatives and Senators who want to build a strong America and get our Dollar back in line –

WOW EXCELLENT, (especially the food) – That sums up my stay at Fang Lagoon - Khun May, Kla, Aew, and Emy were wonderful. 
I opted for the overnighter package – 3,500 Baht ($100) which included 2 massages, full time escort, four meals (check in lunch, evening dinner, breakfast, check out lunch) and private hut for sleeping.
These guys were great – I was pampered, pampered and PAMPERED. After the each massage, I was given an outdoor Roman Style bath to remove the oil – lovely – I got a quick shot of them after they finished my shower – what a way to end a massage.
But then there is my favorite – FOOD – I have never tasted Thai food as good as what was served here – for example – dinner included:
Tom Ka Kai soup – a blend of galangal, lemongrass, ginger, chicken, banana hearts and other spices in a coconut broth. – Amazing – every item was harvested that afternoon to make the dish – fresh, fresh, fresh – and so tasteful – All the herbs melted in your mouth and everything was editable – everything – even the galangal – which has always been like wood and un-editable – it has a wonderful taste. Khun Emy is a excellent cook – Wow again – I will be back.
As I said almost all items are grown on the farm – coffee, fruits, herbs, and they also produce their own coconut oil for the massage.
Here the the oil is separating from the milk.
You have to make reservations and try at least a overnighter –
And the country side is so relaxing – farming country – quite evenings – wake to the distant crow of a rooster. Only to be pampered again by your devoted escort. – Just imagine a 3 day stay – tour of the area and local National Park – check out the pricing – you’ll love it.
Ciao.

The following is an actual question given on a University of Arizona chemistry mid term, and an actual answer turned in by a student. The answer by this student was so ‘profound’ that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well :
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?
Thanks Jim for this excellent theory – I turned it into a JPG to reduce it’s size – hope you like it.

Pad and Bird sent me some shots of the Opening Show on the 17th – I thought you would like to see some of the boys – I think these are the dancers and Lanna fashion show – not sure if they will be there when you visit – but I am sure there will be some great looking young men when you do – I plan on visiting next week sometime and will let you know what I find – anyway here they are:
Well that was just the show – imagine what will be there during normal business hours and I am told special student pricing – WOW
See you there: !!!

Just attended the Grand Opening of Club One Seven Chiang Mai and what a great setup. Guesthouse and Spa-Gym. wonderful for relaxing, meeting someone special, or just enjoying the special rooms and facilities.
Located on the banks of the Ping River, 1km from the city center, is one of Chiang Mai’s hidden secrets. This 130 year old, Thai Teak Wood Guesthouse, newly refurbished, is off the usual tourist track, and is ideally positioned as a refuge and a base from which to discover the riches of Northern Thailand.
“Bird” of Bird’s Asian Tours is the manager – and guess who is working on the front desk – Tasanai. Haven’t seen him since we split up in 2007 – it was really a surprise to see him there.
Check it out is you get a chance;

I haven’t really mentioned this in the blog before but I guess now is the time. Jerry sent me this graphic – reminds me when I was in San Francisco and was a member of NoCirc – not as a flag waver but to restore. It took me about 1 1/2 years to get some resemblance to normal. And I am very glad I did – not the original but I sure feel more natural, comfortable, and have gained more sensation.
If you are interested in more information, “restoring” or joining the cause here are some excellent sites:

Just got back from a short trip to Chiang Rai – stopped to get something to eat at Charin Garden Resort at Mae Suai and this little fella ( about 12 inches long) – err I think fella – was eating ants next to me. Apparently it liked to pose so I got these shots:
Colorful isn’t he – I also got some great shots of rice planting and I will post them with the full story about planting rice shortly.

This week started out with little or no rain in the actual forecast for Chiang Mai –
but my water bills were climbing each month, and I wasn’t watering the lawn or using a lot of water – checked out the system and found the underground pipe from the water main was leaking and getting worse each day – called the contractor – and great – he installed a bypass and stopped the problem – cost 600 Baht $20 —
Such a savings – I decided that it was time to install a A/C unit in the photo studio – too damn hot this summer to take any shots – I’m sweating, the models sweat – not good. Found a used unit for 5000 Baht and had it installed – working fine so I can start inviting models to the studio now – lets see what happens.
Went upstairs to the computer and find the little monitor has stopped working – just spent the money for the A/C – NOW I have to get a new monitor – Damn – could have waited on the A/C – cannot wait on the monitor – there goes my extra spending money.
Gon’a be a tight month – but I should be able to start shooting again and have more photos to post – hope so.
So this is Saturday – tomorrow July 4th celebration, going to party and if I’m lucky will have some images to show you – rain expected – weather cooler – wallet lighter – future hopeful.
Ohhh Ya I did go see Pea – I’ll write the whole story in a future post: Orange and Green very striking – that’s new rice shoots
