Pattaya - The Ultimate Trading Location

Quote from acronym:

Heard it's nice. An old guy I know was looking into moving there, checked it out for him online-I said yeah, sounds fine, only 150 thou odd people. He was a bit surprised, and dissapointed-when he was there in the 60's, it was just a village.
More...


Tell him, where I live is also a sparsely populated village, no karaoke bars, no noise, just wide open spaces. Action is 23 klicks away; that's how I like it.

Show him the following 2 poems that will describe the plight converted to happiness for so many of us .....
 
"Even my best friends, they don't know
That my job is turning Lead into Gold" :) :D

-------------

Out on the highways and the by-ways all alone
I'm still searching for, searching for my home
Up in the morning, up in the morning out on the road
And my head is aching and my hands are cold
And I'm looking for the silver lining, silver lining in the clouds
And I'm searching for and
I'm searching for the philosophers stone

Even my best friends, even my best friends they don't know
That my job is turning lead into gold
When you hear that engine, when you hear that engine drone
I'm on the road again and I'm searching for the philosophers stone.

By the mansion on the hillside
Red sports car comes driving down the road
And pulls up into the driveway
And a story does unfold

And they shut him out of paradise
Called him Lucifer and frowned
She took pride in what God made him
Even before the angels shot him down to the ground

He's a light out of the darkness
And he wears a starry crown
If you see him, nothing will shake him
'Cos high summer has got him low down

Checked in to the tiny village by the lakeside
Settled down to start a new
Far away from the politicians
And the many chosen few

Far away from the jealousy factor
And everything that was tearing him apart
Far away from the organ grinder
And everyone that played their part

Brazil versus Portugal ...... rivalry? you ain't kiddin. "Port Wine versus Copacabana Beach"

Cristiano came out on top - agree completely with the "Budweiser Man of the match award"

Lucio, Brazil's captain looked sloppy in many instances.

Dunga (Brazil's coach) is in a fckin daze; if he don't wake up, Brazil could get knocked out next round. In fact at one point in the game I really felt Portuagal would steal the game. Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal) was awesome throughout the game

Portugal:

Portugal versus Korea .... 7-0

great for goal lovers, but it really was no contest, so I didn't take the result too seriously.

But after Portugal put on such a great show against Brazil, they are now in my "choice" category .....

Argentina, Germany, Portugal, Brazil, England, Japan (could surprise)

Can't rule out England. they've had badluck for decades - could reverse anytime and if so, could be the winner. Just don't know.

Japan:

What a beauteeeeeful team. Stunner of a goal against Denmark.

I wouldn't mind for this team to take the trophy - they work hard, great team spirit and passing. Still a young team. Can't rule them out either way.

Japan is IN!

(fellow workout buddy from Japan has a unique style - in his gym bag he brings each day about 6 different exotic wines that he has me sip each time after workout to get my opinion on the best. They are not available in Thailand. (tell me where he gets them from? Not a chance. :) :)

We skipped a light fandango,
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor.
I was feeling kind of seasick,
But the crowd called out for more.
The room was humming harder,
As the ceiling flew away.
When we called out for another drink,
The waiter brought a tray.

And so it was that later,
As the miller told his tale,
That her face at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale.

She said there is no reason,
And the truth is plain to see
That I wandered through my playing cards,
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast.
And although my eyes were open,
They might just as well have been closed.
 
Uruguay vs Korea .... 2-1 .... good game

next up

USA vs Ghana

don't think either game matters much anyway .....

tomorrow the real fun begins
