..and it's business as usual in Thailand.......


Dancers gather on stage in a nightclub area Monday, Jan. 3, 2004, at a popular tourist area in Patong Beach, Thailand. Thailand continues to collect dead and clean debris along the beaches near the popular resort area of Phuket. More than 4,500 are listed as killed by the tsunami that struck Thailand more than a week ago. (AP Photo/David Longstreath)

Look out!

This also could explain Colin's grinning from ear to ear. From the first press conference a week ago I have never seen anyone so happy and jolly about a catastrophic natural disaster.

4. Mourning the dead doesn't put food on the table, underpants...
Yeah, it seems disrespectful to me too, but then my livelihood doesn't depend on a tourist industry. Theirs does.

5. I know
When this initially happened I was thinking what so many Americans were doing there over the Holiday season (my old fashioned self rearing its ugly head) and sadly the second thing I thought of (after surfing) was sex tours.

Yeah you are right but let me add a correction
Yeah, it seems disrespectful to me too, but then my livelihood doesn't depend on a SELLING MY DAUGHTER INTO PROSTITUTION industry. Theirs does.
