Today in Thailand is Wisakha Bucha Day, one of the more important Buddhist observances that commemoraties the birth, enlightenment, and passing of the Buddha, all of which occurred on the same date (um, but in different years). The country’s sexpat population celebrates the event as they do with all major Buddhist holidays by bitching about bars being closed and booze not being served. Since I covered the Buddhist take on the holiday last year, I thought I’d honor the day by looking at it from the sexpat point of view this time around by commemorating the life cycle of their love affair with the bottle. I should probably also note, while we are on the subject, that today is World Schizophrenia Day. Just sayin’.

Ha! This time I cheated, I wasn’t in Thailand last week and I missed Visakha Bucha Day and the lovely alcohol ban. Time to get wasted this weekend, now that I’m back! 😛

Buddhist Holiday Avoidance!
Brilliant.
You could make a fortune offering sexpat bus trips out of town during dry days!

Not a bad idea, actually, especially if you provide some boys for on-board entertainment as well. But I’ll leave that business opportunity to someone else, you couldn’t pay me enough to deal with that bunch. 😛
