Trends

When I was traveling this fall if I liked to play the "where are they from" game in my head. If I saw a yellow "LiveStrong" bracelet it was an easy answer: American. But now the Thais have adopted this trend and are running with it. About 10% of teenagers I see, even out here in Uthai Thani, have a LiveStrong bracelet. They sell them at all the open-air markets, right in between the exotic fruits and hammocks. You can get them in any color you can imagine, but the price is not cheap. Always more than the equivalent $1. And sometimes they come in a small size, to better fit the asians. Just like the condoms do....
