Sometimes exercise is not necessarily good, quite a few people have died suddenly after they started exercising...so if you have not been exercise, best to have a body checkup first before starting any exercise...
Hehehehe. Last full medical was almost 10 years ago. Last check I did was just BP test when I was experiencing 'some blackout' when trying to stand up from the sitting position. Doctor told me BP is slightly on the high side.

at least maybe keep the head intact on the corpse...
Thanks for the warning and the pic and will remind myself. Usually, will wear helmet if going to the main road. Another thing is also laziness.

Nowadays, also driving very fast on the motorway, think just have to remind myself to slow down.

BTW, the license plate of cars in the pics doesn't seems to be LOS which uses white background but have to admit it could happen anywhere. Just last week, a 15 year old boy was mutilated when he go head on with a 18 wheel lorry. He was racing with another 2 bikes. Read news here.

A souvenir from a Russian friend who just returned from Moscow. A little bell but quality is quite good. Think one of these days, will pay a visit to Moscow.

Talking about road side stalls, this is a real road side stall, not the one you see in Sinkee Chinatown. Notice the tables are barely 1 feet away from the road.

Some good news! Just read the news, Pump price is dropping tomorrow! By how much, I don't know. Just manage to catch the ending part of the news. Another good news is the price reduction also include many household items and daily necessities which in the past increased due to oil price. For example, detergent used to sell at THB 145 is not THB 120. Some new laws on profiteering by greedy businessmen during disasters such as last year's flooding.

Hehehe. Went to Tops to top up my Chang Beer and past by MacD (Easy Point) along Sukumvit Road. This one is a Drive - Thru. Never try before so went in. KNN, think it's slower than parking my bike and going to the counter to order the food. Anyway, good idea for those who lazy to get out from the car.

Remember there is a drive-thru MacD at East Coast Park. Is it still around?

Sawasdee krup everybody.

Just woke up. Its almost 9am now here in LA. We got into LA last night. Today will go Chinatown and the Hollywood strip. Take it easy today. Tomorrow will fly back in 1pm flight and arrive Bangkok about 11pm (Monday).

Past few nights drinking and eating a lot during dinner as their Californian wine is very very good.

Pii Chon, I know this outlet. Once on my way back to Bangkok and in a hurry no time to sit down so drive thru and buy. So this is a good idea along Sukhumvit road especially for this situation.

Hehehe. Jia Hong coming to an end soon. :*: But Hey! you jia hong how many times a year har? Enjoy LA, man!

Confirm 100% Made in Russia. Though not famous for manufacturing, Russia now also competing with China for such small items, supplying mainly to EU nations.

For me long jia hong at least twice a year (long = 2 weeks), short jia hong many times (short = 3-7 days). But this one quite jia-lat because of shopping past 3 days. Also US makan quite expensive averages US$350 per day, breakfast, lunch, dinner this is because I love to do the nice restaurants la. Hotels are cheap because I choose mostly motels plus some hotels so averages about US$150 per day I think.

Oh since you havent done full medical test for so many years, maybe good to do one before starting any exercise regimen, that was what i read somewhere before that a doctor recommended, especially when your BP is above norm...Anyway, Thailand Medical check up should be much cheaper than SG...
