Sabaidi all,
sabaidi ma...@UFOmail.net, there's no Mak Khee Hum, but there's Mak
Khi Hum, and only the know-all thai guys eat it. he said it tastes
Preao-Preao (sour). do you want to know the story? it was a real story
happended in Paris during the late 60's. each time we lao people tell
this story in the presence of thai people, we have a fight as soon as
the story is ended. if makmo or any one want to know the story, i'll
post here the next time.
