Two reporters went to a pub to unwind after work. A group of teenagers attacked one of the reporters for, supposedly, looking at “their” girls. The newsmen apologized. However the unruly teenagers chased and shot at them. One of the newsmen sustained gunshot wounds.
A third reporter, Mr. Nathaphol Namajak (28), a colleague of the two injured men, told police that they had been covering the Honda Motor Sport 2007 at the Pira Circuit Racing Grounds. After work, they stopped in at a pub in the vicinity of Petchkrakul – North Pattaya Road. While in the pub, a gang of over ten teenagers approached them because they believed that the reporters were looking at their girlfriends. The men did not attempt to confront the gang of teenagers.
The reporters left the pub, but the teenagers were waiting for them in the car park. The teens approached their car and pulled Mr. Nathaphon Phaojinda out of the vehicle and attacked him. The other reporters did not want to fight and apologized for their perceived transgression. Mr. Arnon Srisukhee, the driver, drove away in the car, but the teenagers got on their motorbike and chased the car. One of the teens pulled out a gun and shot five bullets at the car. Two bullets lodged in Mr. Arnon’s leg and the teenagers rode away. [via Pattaya Daily News]
Ed. This is Thai on Thai, I dread to think what would have happened if the reporters had been farang. Crimes involving guns are being reported on a regular basis so keep that road rage under control and your eyes on what's yours !!!!!

- The Royal Household has yesterday issued a second statement on the health of His Majesty the King.

- The Chinese Juggler used The Limo Pattaya service to get to Pattaya from the airport and he liked the service so much, he booked them to take him from Pattaya to Bangkok yesterday. The cost for both trips was a reasonable 1,200 Baht with a couple of beers thrown in on the airport trip. He got a new car for both trips and said the driver was very reliable averaging around the 100kmh, not racing like other drivers he's had. Tel: 085-7394949
- Verify Email Address - If, for whatever reason, you need to verify someone's email address, try Verify-Email.org, a free email address verifier. Just enter in the email address, click "verify",and go. The format, domain, and user are all checked by actually connecting to the mail server to see if everything is active. Somewhat disconcerting, but sure to come in handy in some way.
- The women in New Zealand are the most promiscuous in the world according to a new world-wide survey of sexual acti vity in humans. They have an average of 20.4 sexual partners, according to a survey by condom-maker Durex - well above the global average of 7.3. The Durex Sexual Wellbeing Global survey, which questioned 26,000 people in 26 countries, found that Austrians topped the male list with 29.3 sexual partners, more than twice the global average of 13.2. Businessmen all over the world are planning their next business conferences and meetings in New Zealand at this very moment. Ed. Are they talking at the same time or in a lifetime? If it's lifetime then putting Austrian men on top with 29.3 is having a laugh. A lazy monger could beat that in a couple of weeks !!!!!! I reckon my mates Snake and the Chinese Juggler have topped 1,000 and that's just in the time I've known them. Dread to think what numbers they could have achieved if they'd only been single......
- Jeep - The collar and Pinkie & Perky looks as though they're painted on but she has material in her hand which makes it look as though she's pulled the shirt tight. Clever illusion. [via Asian Sweetheart]

- Three guys die and end up at the gates of heaven, talking to St. Peter. "So," Peter asks the first guy, "how many times did you cheat on your wife?" "None. I had a perfect marriage." "Great," says Peter. "You get to cruise around heaven in a Mercedes. And you, how many times did you cheat on your wife?" "Only twice, I think," says the second guy. "Okay. You get to cruise around heaven in a Cadillac. And you, how many times did you cheat on your wife?" "12 times. Maybe 13," says the third guy. "Okay," says Peter. "You get a rusty Ford." Later that day, the guy in the Cadillac sees the guy in the Mercedes crying. "What's wrong?". "I just saw my wife." "So?" "She was riding a skateboard."
