Grind. Travel. Repeat.
If people had been wondering where I was all last week, I was up in Phetchabun for the Songkran festival. Songkran is a religious holiday but over the years it has sort of developed into a three-day nationwide water fight. I prefer the Phetchabun type of Songkran because it’s civilized. In Bangkok, Pattaya, or any…
Someone told me there were cars there too. I think I missed that part.
You would think that in a competitive market space that people would actually get better at what they do. Instead they just stay the same level of FAIL. Here’s an email I got earlier today. Hello there, Team/Owner of billrini.com! My name is Stanley and I deal with promotion for my casino-related website. I am…
I’m always surprised that anybody has any interest in reading what I write but you guys and gals do and the numbers just keep increasing. The latest milestone you folks have helped this site hit is having over 2000 RSS/Email subscribers. That means over 2000 people, in addition to those who just run across the…
My dad just sent me an email asking if I was doing anything special for Christmas. I was just thinking about this topic the other day and had been considering writing about spending holidays overseas so I told my dad I would go ahead and write the blog post as I think it might be…
People often ask me why I go out of the limb and make predictions (which seem to come true). Here’s why: I subscribe to magazines that are able to publish their February edition in December. I know the future before it happens 🙂
Ran across this on Information is Beautiful and even though it doesn’t have anything to do with poker I thought it was interesting and wanted to share. Click on the above pic to enlarge.
Awhile back I wrote a post about the implications of Facebook and noted how Otis had busted my chops because I had been a little harsh on how people use some social media platforms. Well, I think my line of thinking has caught on and Jimmy Kimmel has announced that November 17 will be National…
Was looking for some audiobooks and saw these being advertised on iTunes.
Tired of having to go down to immigration every 60 days, paying 2000 baht and requesting a 30 visa extension, and then having to leave the country and sit around in another country waiting for another visa – always unsure if they’ll approve back-to-back tourist visas – I decided to sign up for another year’s…
On Sunday, about 30 members of Thailand Friends went up to the ancient city of Ayutthaya for a little outing to take pics and check out this very beautiful city. Â I’ve included some photos from the trip. \ This was why we were in the Fun-Vee. Â Ok!!!
I know I’ve been a little silent lately. I’ve had sort of a case of writer’s block. I’ve had some ideas for blog posts percolating in my mind but I can’t seem to find the words to get them out there. I’ll be working on some of those this week and hopefully have some really…
We drove up to Phetchabun the day before meeting Sa-ard (Wanphen’s mother). It’s about a four hour drive from Bangkok but takes six when you factor in all of the bathroom and food breaks. We spent the night at Ked’s place and in the morning Ked called Sa-ard to remind her that we were coming.…
