Happy New Year 2008 to you all

Hi all dear friends. Happy New Year 2008. Another new year again. And another year. I don't know what is awaiting us in 2008, but I am hoping for the best for all. Well, anyway, 2007 indeed was a pretty exciting year for all of us.

Yesterday, I was greeting 2008 in Nakhonpathom, that is a province 56 Km from Bangkok. Quite a large town. I was staying in my wife's house for the New Year night. I didn't go out, just stayed at home, as I was not so keen to go out at night, especially around New Year as people are more or less drunk.

Although I was staying at home, the surrounding was quite noisy. There were fireworks all around the town, and many fire crackers. As the midnight drew near, there were more and more fireworks and fire crackers. There were even many gun shots too. Not firing at each other, just fired into the air. People in Thailand can have guns if they have a license, so some people when they get drunk fired into the air. It was really noisy. Our dog Pink was really scared and wanted to stayed close to me the whole night. She wanted to sleep with us in our room, and tried to get into the room. So we had to let her in and made her calm down until all the noise died down. Well, personally I don't like a noisy New Year although I don't want to tell other people how to behave. For me, I greeted 2008 at home.

Anyway, Happy New Year 2008 to you all.

How to insert images and pictures in Gmail

Gmail is cool, really cool and I use it as my primary mail. I used to use other emails before but now I use gmail as my sole email. I even assess my office pop mail using gmail's pop collector. However, there are a few things that I like to see in gmail. 1. You cannot insert images and pictures into gmail message. You can send them as an attachment but you cannot insert them into the message body. 2. You cannot format the message using html. That is too bad. OK, they are too bad but you can still do these, and it is not difficult. Very easy indeed. To so these, first, open a google document. Write your message with message in it. Just write anything you want and insert any picture or image anywhere you want in the message. After you finish, just select the whole page and copy. Then go to gmail, open the compose window, and paste. Done! It is that easy. Now what if you want to do some html formatting? Go to google pages, create a new web page (no, you don't need to publish it),
