Weighty matters
According to the bathroom scales, my jersey weighs only a pound. It hefted like more than that. (My keys, etc. were in the pockets.) Then I weighed my wallet: two and a half pounds. I thought I was overstating it when I said that I carry a pound of coins! But of course it weighs more now that I can't get dollar bills and do have a pint of quarters. -- Joy Beeson joy beeson at centurylink dot net http://wlweather.net/PAGEJOY/ |

We used to have prices in single "baht" and/or fractions there of. Like 1 baht 50, and one had to carry coins. Now with all the "progress" here prices are now in multiply bahts and what used to cost 1 baht 50 stang (coins) now cost 20 baht and we can use paper money :-( -- Cheers, John B. |
