Was browsing Citysearch.com, looking for a restaurant for Mom's birthday (we'd planned to go to CT, but had to cancel), when I came across a small list of national restaurants which had recently gotten good reviews (the top 10 or whatever). In the middle of the list...

Phuket Thai Restaurant

I'm sure that means something good in Thai. But when I read it, I just get a word I'd rather not have echoing in my head. Do they not realize this? Has no one told them? Or is this some subtle form of advertising?

Oddly enough, Phuket (pronounced poo-khet, I think) is a province of Thailand. I always have to think about the pronounciation when I see it written out.

I've seen a Vietnamese restaurant called Mo'Pho. Makes me think of this! :)

I'm sorry you won't be able to go to CT! I hope you guys can find something fun to do for your Mom's birthday :)

I had a lot of fun with this when I discovered it...

Thai airways flew me to Phuket in Bankok.

... Of course, I was 15 at the time.
