Is the Baht next?

Educated guesses? Rampant rumors. Who knows. The point is I think the Baht has to move. There are some rumors floating around that depreciating the Baht is actually one of the ideas the current government is proposing as a fix to the economy. The only reason they are waiting is to give the rich people some time to move their Baht out before they do it.

Think about it. Helps the export market, encourages tourism and boosts the loan packages for the coming infrastructure projects. It is also one of the most dramatic moves the new government could make that truly moves the needle in short order.

After X-MAS Day Cheer!

I must say that this is the gloomiest Christmas I have spent in Bkk. My guess is it must be related to the WWFF and the effect it is having on people. That or people just hate Christmas. Not really sure but just seems a lot of people are down this time of year. All I can say is things do feel a little crappy but I am hoping 09 will be better than 08.

No matter how you are feeling though a little partying can’t hurt?

Reminder(Pre-Party Announcement for Proper Pre-Party Planning)

It’s party time folks. My job is to remind you of the events so that you don’t miss them. For those of you not in Thailand there is no better time for you to come on over. Mango parties, great weather and now specials from TAT. I have sent the TAT an email asking to add a few “partner” specials to the package:

  • Discounted barfines at the Mango
  • 2 for 1 specials at Poseidon
  • All breakfast coupons can be exchanged for a Lolitas coupon

Back to the party schedule.

Lucky VII, GFs & other random shit!

Life is strange. A lot of my life in Thailand has been displayed on the blog. Maybe not so much in black and white but the essence of it all is here. However my own time line living in my head tends to have milestones tied to my girlfriends. Not sure why but it is how I tend to look at things.

A hard month, stupid marketing ideas & the calm before the storm…

It is Saturday folks. This time of the year is rough on the sleep patterns and the liver. Last night, for those who made it, was the Mango manager’s birthday party at the Mango and it was insane. I don’t know what I was forced to drink - I think it was Pernod - but damn I don’t feel well today. Anyway - an insane night and I am sure there are some serious hangovers today. Thanks to all that made it.

Never fear though - Christmas, Ghost Bday and New Yera’s Eve is coming. Lock up your livers.

Pre-Party Announcement for Proper Pre-Party Planning

It’s December folks. I had a nice lunch today with a friend and he said we should get a large carafe of white wine. Drinking during the day puts me out of commission so of course I balked, but he said lighten up it is December. Time for the holidays. Time to party. I forget with the weather what time of the year it is. It is December. It is time to party. So to help you get ready for it here is the parties we will be having at the Mango. My suggestion is to head to the hospital and get them to snip a piece of your liver out. Freeze it. Re-grow it in January and have them put it back in. Respect.
