I'm not a fan of watching TV but Tik's been compaining that she doesn't get a chance to follow Thai news anymore.  She's been keen to get a TV for a while ... http://www.pavion.net/our-new-wii/ Tik and I went to see 'We Will Rock You' last Thursday at the Muang Thai Rachadalai Theatre in Bangkok. This was a live musical with the international traveling cast.  The theater is, from what I understand, Thailand newest (and possibly only) proper theater and opened less than 12 months ago.  ... http://www.pavion.net/we-will-rock-you/ I'm keeping my business affairs seperate from my personal blog for many reasons. If you are following my progress and don't see updates too often on this blog, its usually because work's keeping me busy. I'm finding that our True Potential Group Inc.

Tickets cost about 1,500 baht each and included a comprehensive buffet dinner before the show began.  We'd have not known about this at all if it hadn't been for ... http://www.pavion.net/expat-blues/ I'm a proud atheist, and whilst I apologize if this article offends you, I really felt it deserved some publicity. It's a very eloquent summary of why religion fails us. Kudos to Steve Pavlina, the article writer. The article is perhaps a little over-confrontational but it's refreshing to see a ... http://www.pavion.net/10-reasons-you-should-never-have-a-religion/ It's about time I updated this site a little so today I've upgraded Wordpress, added a flickr widget, added links to my flickr account and I've revised the theme a little.
