Siamese twin gravesite
Here are some pictures I took at the grave site of Chang and Eng Bunker.."THE" Siamese Twins.
Historical marker on Hwy 601:
The headstone:
My son, JP, on the "Chang side" :-) (I also have one of him on the Eng side):
I suppose I don't have to tell those of you who speak Siamese (Thai?) that Eng and Chang mean left and right. Here's a link to more info: Siamese Twins

I'll bet you didn't think there would be any of us who spoke Thai but I can say SawadiKa.
Wonderful! Through work, I have communicated with someone who lives near Bangkok and she told me that the word is pronounced like this:
Sawasdee!
but she did not spell it out for me.
And she said it is like "Aloha" in Hawaiian, in that it is used to say hello, goodbye, how are you, nice to see you, etc.
That's right. I think adding the Ka at the end is a greeting to a female.
Hi Tim.. like the gravesite pictures...it is a hobby of mine. You should see my office!
Hope you are well. I see you are the author of the Opus X BONUS... I shall look at it more closely tomorrow. Hints? Hints?
