We were drinking a couple Singhas in a bar on Pra A Tit Road in Bangkok Thailand when we saw these Ninjas across the street working on the lines.

But I also believe that all laws are regarded as optional in Thailand. Music is Always Crush Me by Guided by Voices from the Alien Lanes ablum. [More] [Less]
