Slim "Jim" Shady

Samut Prakan, Thailand

I met a lot of "characters" in Thailand. Though from the "land of smiles" the people
I met had distinct personalities and strong opinions.

Here's a man I met in Samut Prakan, a province near Bangkok. He said he was happy
with his retired life and spends his time with wife and his friends. He enjoys whiskey with
club soda, and a good smoke in between.

His life lesson for me was:

"Son...you better lose yourself in the music, the moment, you own it,
you better never let it go...HO!" :-)
