If Thailand is good for one thing, it's 'interesting'
expats, and Greg and Ed keep it light with a humorous discussion
of some of the crazy characters they've met over the years in
Bangkok. All names have been changed of course, but Greg recounts
a few stories of 'Chandler', an out-of-control, heavy drinking,
motorcycle riding, jacket busting, wrecking ball of an expat, as
well an African refugee who recounted stories of civil war that

Ed counters with a few stories of a chap who couldn't open
his refrigerator door lest he be electrocuted and spent his
evenings dropping acid and watching his pet turtles race, as well
as a Swedish friend who ended up getting deported and
incarcerated back home on the continent.


There are always stories to entertain and lessons to learn
if you ask a question and listen, and Bangkok is a fantastic
place to mine for stories and lessons. And remember - if you're
bored in Bangkok, the problem ain't Bangkok. :)
