But Savie's graduation week has inspired me to get back to adding pictures and stories of our lives in Thailand. SAVIE IS FINALLY GRADUATING! She will officially become Dr. Savittree Rochanasmita Arnold on July 23, 2008. They do graduation a lot differently here in the Land of the Siamese. They have a "picture day" where everybody comes and takes your picture in cap and gown for several hours.....and then thousands of students go and rehearse over and over again for the big day. One of the daughters of the King of Thailand will be handing the diploma to the graduating students, so everything must be exactly right. They take this very very seriously and rehearse every bow, curtsey, and gesture down to the last minute. <a href="http://speedyactor.multiply.com/photos/hi-res/upload/SIRA5woKCF0AAD7G90E1"><img class="alignleft" src="http://images.speedyactor.multiply.com/image/1/photos/upload/300x300/SIRA5woKCF0AAD7G90E1/IMG-0002.JPG?et=H1okSr9ypc2nnOPWaI8vdg&nmid=0" border="0"></a>   Sooooo, Savie and our other graduating Thai friends came and camped out at our place the night of July 18th to get ready for PICTURE DAY.

You don't have to walk down a Thai street long to see a "katoy". What is a "katoy"? You can't quite come up with enough definitions. A man who looks like a woman. A man who wants to be a woman. A man who has taken hormones to become half woman half man. A man who has had surgery to become a "whole" woman (no pun intended). There isn't anything NEW about this phenomen.......but Thailand takes it to a completely different level. Homosexuality and Katoys are much more accepted in this society. A famous transvestitie or katoy has his/her own TV show and makes guest apperances and advertisement spots everywhere. He/she is very popular and makes a great deal of money.

My good old buddy, Jeff Evans, asked me to still be a part of this year's Town and Gown Theater Awards Banquet. He and I used to write comedy or participate in someway whenever we could when asked to help with each year's banquet. I am often homesick....but because Jeff included me this year, I was able to do something creative for my friends and theater back home. That helped more than any medicine I could take for said sickness! This year's theme was James Bond 007 because of the year 2007. Jeff told me to be a James Bond character that gets killed in the end....I took it from there. The biggest satisfaction of all was to hear that this simple video made folks back home laugh. That was all I needed to hear....You may not get all of the inside jokes, but I hope you enjoy this short film. We had to shoot it and edit it in 48 hours to get it to Jeff in time for the show.
