Hi,
We're back in Chiang Rai, it's late and this will be short. (now we'll see what happens) Those of you who knew the song can pat yourselves on the back. It was "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) by The Eurythmics. This next one should be easy too:
"I know a man ain't supposed to cry, but these tears I can't hold inside. Losin' you would end my life you see, 'cause you mean that much to me..." Clues: This song was a hit by two artists from the same label. Name both and you're on the 'Cool Squad'. Name one or the other and you're still cool (you just don't get a jacket). There's a plant in the title.
We spent the day back at Paragon. First, at the Apple store, where they diagnosed my battery problem and sent us to the service center. The service center was in Siam Discovery. To get there, we had to travel through Siam, a slightly lower budget mall building. So, to recap, we went from Paragon to Siam to Discovery. Ended up with a new battery.
Back at Paragon, we found things, saw things and were generally awestruck. We priced a Porsche bicycle. Only $10,000 USD. You had to be there. We also saw a Lamborghini, a Stryker, a Lotus, and other exotic sports cars. All for sale. I have no idea how they got them up to the levels they were on, but there they were. There were elevators and escalators in logical locations. At the elevator locations they had T.V.s on the wall. No big deal until we realized that they were 3-D and certain things would actually float from the screen. Hmm.
After lunch Lisa and I went to Pantip Plaza. John calls it the 'Den of Thieves'. He's close to right. This is the place where you buy discounted computer hardware and software, movies, appliances and virtually anything that plugs in. August would love it. We got a hard drive for our entertainment files and a closed circuit T.V. camera (CCTV) at an alarmingly low price. Now we can see who's at the gate at the new house.
More reflections tomorrow. It's been a long day. Time to have a Wacky Wednesday.
Peace,
Danny
