Finally...
...some photos from Thailand that I didn't take. Sara's a much better photographer than I, but these are relatively low-res photos. Included (in no order that I seem able to take charge of) are photos of us en route, in Surathani (sp?), on Koh Phangan ("Happy Shakes" totally give me the happy shakes), in Bangkok (that's a hookah in a fantastic Arabic restaurant, FYI, not a bong), and returning home. The photo of the two guys wading through the water is the closest thing I have to a picture of Tim's huge fucking octopus tattoo all over his left shoulder, which is totally bad-ass. He used to be in the navy, and is really fun and easy-going for a guy that looks really effing mean. The old Thai guy on stage, and posing in the picture with Sara, has been a staple at this really great bar in Bangkok for decades. He can wail. The Sikh guys in the bar with us are the tailors who made us suits and then insisted that we go out drinking with them at their expense. Ridiculously nice guys, whose sweatshops crank out some of the slickest-looking suits I've ever had the pleasure of wearing. (The whole process, including sizing, cutting the fabric, re-sizing the cut pieces to my body, assembling the pieces, and finishing the detailing took three days, and each suit-shirt-tie combo cost about $150. One is cashmere, one is linen. Jimmy got roughly the same thing. HOT is what we look like.) Some of the photos at the end are from the company holiday "party" and our subsequent much better time out drinking afterwards. I work with really cool, really good-looking people.
So yeah, this will amount to a slough of images in quasi-chronological order, but I'm not aware of any way of sorting everything that isn't really tedious. (Or perhaps I'm just e-tarded. Either way... same-same, as they say here.) You can always inquire as to the subject matter of a photo if you want to know, of course.

Wonderful pics! You look great (and very happy) Matt. Those tailors are doing fabulous work..
ps - my fav pic is you with the clarinet type thing. are you drunk there? you look very skilled.
You're making me crave beaches... bastard. We had a snow-day in Waterloo today. Jealous!?...
sigh.
oh it's a hookah!!! I'm such a moron. Now I'm even more jealous. luxury!
Jealous? Yes... if by jealous, you mean "happy to be warmer than you". Wait, that can't possibly be what you meant...
Snow days are fun, though. We only had two in my four years at Laurier. I almost killed myself driving to school, where I learned that the school was in fact closed. Good times...
