» Unless you've been living under a rock (or you've just came back from a government attitude adjustment session), you won't have escaped Pokemon Go on your Facebook feed. For those not in the know, this game for iOS and Android devices lets you to assume the role of a trainer who goes outside in real life to virtually capture cute monsters in different places with special Poke balls.
#Traffic

» How has this week's traffic treated ya, now that the Thai kids are back in school? As a parent who has to endure the heart-tearing stress of being stuck on Sathon Road every morning and afternoon, I think I deserve a trophy for my patience, or a year's supply of Vicodin.

» Last week, I read about something really disturbing. Well, three things to be exact.
How to make transit truly for the masses

» Monday is always the source of predicaments. Last Monday, especially, was chaos for many Bangkokians. No, we're not talking about Gen Prayut's birthday, even though it fell on the same day. What happened last Monday was the infamous Airport Rail Link (ARL) incident. And all the news and headlines have already informed you of how over 700 passengers were stuck inside a train for an hour due to electrical problems, leaving them practically suffocated under Bangkok's trapped heat.

» On my way to work I have to pass Victory Monument where I use the elevated pedestrian walkway to reach the BTS station. At the northern end of the walkway, I always pick up a copy of M2F from a newsboy who is positioned there every weekday morning to hand out the free newspaper to passers-by. I need something interesting to read during idle time on the Skytrain and the paper is much better for the eyes than the mobile screen. Besides, I want to check out if the newsboy is doing his job properly.
There have probably been better years

» Well, we've just about scraped through 2015, although there have been a few dicey moments. Most of us will be happy to see the back of the Year of the Sheep, or was it the Goat? I never did quite work that out. It is customary at this time to look back on the past 12 months, although there are some events you might prefer to forget. If nothing else it serves as a reminder that Thailand will always be Truly Amazing.
Bangkok -- what a waste of space

No place for sissies

» There is no way around it. Nothing has occupied as many of my thoughts and emotions over the last week as my birthday. How self-centred can I get?
Old cars aren't the problem on city streets
