Time in Thailand



Bangkok

Walking the streets of Bangkok.

Walking along the streets of Bangkok make you wonder why these people would sell the items they do with such little profit. Poverty in America cannot hold a candle to Thailand. Yes Dalton, I found some silk boxer shorts for you. 500 Baht for 3 pair. You can find a worship spot around every corner and they are kept very tidy. FYI: I was at the doctors office today and read an article on anesthesia. There is a saying we use in America: "Saved by the bell". This comes from the early days of anesthesia when it was feared people were not dead at the time of their funeral and burial. The families would run a rope from the casket being buried to a bell on the tomb stone. If by chance the person was only in a coma or under anesthesia and awoke after burial, they would pull the rope and ring the bell to be removed from the casket. It occurred on many occasions according to the article. I had thought is was a boxing phrase.
