FLASH HOLD THE PRESSES FLASH

My friend, Derek ... the man who created our immensely popular left-margin sidebar; the one so loved by THOCBDC fans all over the world ... has designed something else for us. Tailored especially for THOCBDC, this Hero Of The Soviet Internet (HOTSI) award will be only given to site owners who richly deserve it. The first person to receive this highest of Internet honors is Mr.Don Bull of Bullworks.net.




Letter to the Editor

James Quality Jewelers

If you been following the quest for the Siam bar set source, you may find this proposal from our Bangkok correspondent of interest:

From: Corkscrew@aol.com
To: corkscrew@bullworks.net
Sent: Thursday, January 15, 2004 7:21 AM Subject: James Jewelers Dear Don,

After reading the message from Peter Bird in yesterday's edition, we attacked the problem again....by visiting the location and by phone searches: James Jewelers may very well have been at 542/13-14 Petchburi Road during the 60's and 70's but it is not there now. That address is now the home of "Dream Club"...which is, according to my Thai associate, "a place where men go to eat and f**k."

As you can see (if you can read Thai), the place advertises many beautiful ladies and it is always recruiting for more. The closest thing to a corkscrew that you will likely find (for sale)...is one without the cork. The BKK operator has no listing for any other James Jewlers. There is a James Gems that is a government shop on the edge of the city.

Would you like us to penetrate the current shop at 542/13-14 Petchburi Road to see if it is but a front for a jewelry shop? We will do this for you.
