You know what? Never ever bother with polls and surveys. They're a complete waste of time, pure nonsense, and sheer self-indulgence. Unless of course you've landed a spot (and if especially you've snatched the top notch) in the flattering ones!

SURPRISED
Much to my surprise and, of course, delight, Bangkok ranks No. 3 in this year's Travel & Leisure Magazine's best city list. I was convinced it would fall out of top million after what had happened last December & this April. What is it w/ this metropolis?
What is equally surprising is Chiang Mai is back in top 5 after it was nowhere to be seen in last year's list. Not that this and that poll really matters. Well, it doesn't matter when you don't make the final cut!
If you notice, you will see that I last wrote in Jan 09. I was too depressed and ashamed to bring myself to brag about this city. I thought Bangkok was done, over, finished, kaput...forever. The chaos in April further confirmed my conviction. But now this stupid poll?
