Affordable camper van coming to Thailand
pgrahmm replied to CLW's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Really not much more than a rolling bed with small cabinet space....No galley, fridge, bathroom or shower....A/C needs 30-50 amp set up.... No infrastructure to support FHU vehicles here..... Nothing to see here.... I've seen a couple of TTs/caravans for sale here = no A/C.... Imagine sleeping in that..... -
I get cotton t-shirts from Lazada that I wear around the house for comfort ....Their international size chart is accurate....

Basically, if there doesn't seem to be any implied threat or active unpleasantness, I just go on being myself.....If I glance & someone is "looking" at me, I'll smile then go back to what I'm doing..... Why let their problem project any power at me..... I'm not doing anything wrong, I dress approptiately & am not slovenly or overweight ..... If they don't like me on sight = fk'em....

I have 2 here & 2 in the US plus CC accounts with 2 banks.... One time my US bank had a security breach on one account & issued a replacement card - new requirements were a 6 digit versus the 4 digit I'd had....The only problem = they only send the "new" pin code by separate snail mail....If I'd only had the one account I would have been high & dry for about 6 weeks waiting for the pin number to get here - thankfully it did.... The 2nd account + online banking allowed me to move funds around and not miss a beat.... Food for thought....

Our Toyota SUV was about 3500.....I heard of another place at 2000....This was Chiang Mai two years ago.... Not new info, but ballpark....

Does the song & lyric choice come across a little pervy to anybody else? There were a lot of hopeful songs & lyrics from that era....

Bingo - works almost all the time.....

Crime Update: 7 dead in Half Moon Bay mass shooting; Suspect in custody
pgrahmm replied to Scott's topic in World News
Ouch, close to home..... That's my old stomping grounds..... Anytime I wanted to just drive, the coast was about 40 minutes away over the hill on 92 to highway 1..... Never tired of it......Always a cool vibe..... RIP to the victims..... -
Most maskless places in Thailand or ASEAN?

Can't tell you = we avoid them..... -
Lazada has many....If you are going to start from zero then you just dig to match.....?

Looking for good SAFE cycling runs 10-40 km from Hang Dong
pgrahmm replied to nglodnig's topic in Chiang Mai
It only took a couple of bicycle rides to convince me that I don't want to share the road with Thai drivers.... Especially on narrow streets....Not only do the car drivers seem to not care about bicyclists, the motorcy riders squeeze your space - some passing so close they rock you with their airstream.....A a difference in speed of 30+kph there's no doubt of the outcome should the two meet while sharing the minimal space.... I put it at 50/50 on road/traffic conditions & some just want to buzz the tower & intimidate the farang rider..... -
Other than a newsworthy curiousity once in awhile, this is pretty true....There really is no reason to.... Everybody is busy just living their life in their own respective country..... Edit note - the bold is not intentional, it just appeared by itself....

Those were the best days to experience Graceland....They still had the Mom & Pop feel with the souvenir shop across the street & the gold records on display at the racquet ball court.... It's on our next trip to do list, but it's more commercialized like a big convention center built around the centerpiece that is Graceland.... Each feature with it's own price of admission.... My wife wants to see it..... I'll enjoy through her excitement....

MLK was a flawed man that took on/championed some worthy causes that helped better the world.... Admittedly, I am not an art critic.... That being said, in every picture and angle that I've seen of that sculpture, it looks hideous.....

I see this representative of most of the "declared" nationalities and not just "Americans"..... It's a pretty common observation in the expat universe..... There's several from the US on here that contribute without being braggadocios.....

On the your & you're issue.... Predictive text/spell check is doing a very good job of applying these words incorrectly..... In proofing, (attempting to), anything I input I have found this word incorrectly changed and applied about half the time.....

Canada wrestles with euthanasia for the mentally ill.
pgrahmm replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Dangerous ground, leaving the fate of people to the prevailing powers that be - to declare mental illness & euthanasia.... Any dissident or truck driver that's dissatisfied could be legally declared as mentally ill and "removed" or their assets seized (for their own good).... Any group could be targeted - see WW2...
