A website with before and after satellite pictures of SE Asia and India. It's amazing to see the pruning of the landscape. There are 9 pages in all, make sure to hit NEXT to see the next page.
Thanks Baz .... bloody scarey!
Bloody Scarey hardly covers it..... Amazing what the power of the water was..... looking at the damage and total destruction from this prespective sure can open ones eyes even wider......
One very strange impression ....... the 1st photo of the pack [set 5 of 20] Banda Aceh looks very very eerily like the outline of the continental USA .... hope this is not a scaled omen or portent

well done bbc, maybe this will serve as a wake up call to the thais, they need us and our money more than we need them, maybe toxin can calm down on his xenaphobia, maybe purachai can calm down on his puratanical crusades, maybe the police will stop killing tourists in cold blood, i for one hope the thais have a few years without tourists, it may help them remember where most of the hard currency is coming from, maybe then they will forget about two tier pricing and ripping off the farangs, yep, i for one say keep the bad news up bbc and thank you for that, while the thais continue to kill and maim each other on a daily basis and toxin continues to lie on a daily basis its best to believe the bbc, they have nothing to gain where as toxin does.
Crazy Dave, you really live up to that name, what a stupid posting.
Stupid Posting ???? I don't necessarily agree with the term stupid. While I may not have made the statements in the same way, shape or form, there is a lot of fact in what Crazy Dave is saying...
Each item above stated by Crazy, bears out a lot of truth. Reality is what is not necessarily what someone says it is...... Saying there is no bird flu in Thailand , does not make it so...... Saying tourists have not been killed, does not make it so...
I have seen in my years here many times locals saying what they would like you to believe much more often that what is in fact reality and then getting annoyed [?] when you may question the validity of their statement..... If you question anything they say, than the first thing they want is to sue for defamation.

What about the $5 American in exchange for 250Bt ??
Last time I checked, the US$ was 39 baht, meaning the Thai immigration dept/officials are pocketing 55 baht on every farang who wants an American fiver. But that goes without saying around Thailand.
Oh NO!!!!!!
NoooOOOOOoooOOOOOOoooooooO!!!! Now Now Meadish, be not to hard on the laddie......may be in his blood.....
Now lets look at this now..... 55 Baht Spread
If the Imm Boys are desirous of seeing 20,000 Baht in hand on reentry then lets see 20,000 divided by 55 Baht per trip , that means in only 364 trips, you would have given the exchanger the 20,000 baht..... and one trip each 30 days, so 364 trips divided by 12 months per year..... lets see that means in only 30 very quick years you have the 20,000 paid for and its in their hands..... I think a deal may be able to be worked here for the 20,000 on the installment plan

Ben Jonson and Slim Pickens both were casted in The Getaway. Both were casted in western movies, Ben Johnson being the most famous cowboy whose name people can't remember. Both were in One Eyed Jacks with Marlon Brando.
Ben Johnson movies: including The Wild Bunch
Slim Pickens movies: including Dr. Strangelove and Blazing Saddles
The bad guy who gropped Sally Struthers in the Getaway was Al Lettieri he was in the Godfather also.
Remember Mates Honour System..... No Googleing..... Only Search Engine should be your mind..... but thanks for some memories I had forgotten..... Ben Johnson... Very good actor and aughie I agree most famous cowboy no one remembers

Toopeekaa....that was brilliant.
I remember 'publicity' very well. Flashing one's stiffy around at everyone. I still do in fact, and it still gets 'em laughing after all these years.
Oh Mr. Gazza, yes, yes,,,,,, I too remember those long ago days..... but I must confess, in those days I, oh how do I say it, I'm so embarrassed, but ahhh In those days I didn't have a Mr. Stiffy....... I had a Miss Fluffy..... but I saw the true light and had the operation....... the addadicktome and have never looked back...
In those days, in my youth, I used to look much like the hardhat construction worker of the Village People, if you recall.. I, in fact, became an Iron worker and walked the high beams over the city every day ....... It used to give me such a thrill and arouse me so much that almost every day while walking the iron around lunch time, and when I came to a column, I would whip out my New Mr. Stiffy and bong the Beam so too speak........ The guys all thought it was the lunch bell....
Oh the memories,,,,,,,, I'm tearing up now so I have to go ...... ta ta

Nanny,
There is no rushing needed. Type slowly and be careful with your english. Get a friend to help you if you need. We cannot understand you. Sorry.

Aahhh Come on guys,,,,,, nothing confusing about the new poster Ninny.....
It is obviously from a new and young poster approaching the time of life here in Thailand where every person must make the decision on which gender to be. At this point as the poster is using a femminine name[ Ninny] I will address the young lady [so far] as she or her...
Yes my dear, I know it is a very difficult time in life to become a teenager and reach the age of publicity and declare which way you want to go.....and naturally you reach out for help and ask would it be better to be a boyfriend, or girlfriend....
Really I think only your hairdresser should know.... I can remember when I was your age and use to feel that I was a Klingon trapped in a Usepps body. I just didn't know where to turn for advice and who I could trust with such a personal secret.
But you can and should feel no shame or fear, with your family here at Thai Visa. We are all with you and are there for you at any time...... If you should decide on the rotor-rooter job, please just post it here and I sure we [all your TV Family] can find the best and most economical place for the job... and remember your decision and information you post will be kept in the strictest confidence. No one will know but your family.... Just keep in mind that if you do decide that the rotor-rooter job is not for you, you can always reverse it with an addadicktome, and you may even gain.
and the rest of you guys who couldn't understand what was being asked,,,,, shame on you and I would ask you to show some kindness and compassion and open your hearts so Ninny can PMS you.
I hope this helps you dear.
Call me any time

Has anyone seen in CM a copier made by HP that is able to take your old videos, and even old 8MM home movies and convert and burn them onto CD's
I saw an ad for it about a year and a half ago and then nothing....
If memory serves me it was a HP 3000 something.
Has anyone bought one or used one and would you give a recommendation Pro/Con on the device ...
I have quite a few of the old "Cheers" "Faulty Towers" , "Billy Connley" etc VHS Tapes I would like to preserve..
Thanks

And Pablo, sometimes the best defense is a strong offense...
Aaahhhh the mind does wander...... Does anyone remember [maybe 30-35 yrs ago there was a movie, with one of the leads being an actor named Robert Morse, he did a lot of Broadway shows, and I think the co-star was Walter Matheau.
The general gist was that Walter M was thinking about having an affair, and Morse was the real man about town with many affairs under his belt. Morse was giving Matheau the education on how to go about the whole thing... and the main education point was if you were caught ' in- flagrante " just and always DENY, DENY, DENY.
One scene sticks in my mind, where Morse's wife caught him in bed with another woman and he and the woman just ignored the screaming of the wife; calmly got up and dressed and walked out of the motel room without even acknowledging the screaming wife. Just Deny, Deny, Deny. Later at home when he was confronted again by the wife, he didn't even acknowledge the motel scene had ever happened and the wife then thought she was going nutso.......
So Ajarn your advice is spot on, when a woman calls and your GF or wife gets the call, Deny, Deny, Deny

Can you imagine what twenty years in Thailand would do to you? You've seen them walking around LOS with that baggy look all over their face pleading sanity. Hanging outside 7-11 drinking cheep liquer. This poor blighter went home alone and found a new life selling tickets touting around britains football grounds. He's looking quite good considering the price of the beer back home.
What kind of people suprise you most around Town?
Does anyone you know resemble this young man?
George..... use the photo as your new avatar and the former whingers will be asking for your blinking eyeball back..... Looks like a relative of ET if you aske me....... looking for some coins to call home

Over the years I have lived for different periods of time in 7 different countries.
In Thailand now for a goodly number of years.....
Is it my imagination or what..... but do Thais dial more wrong numbers than other nationalities ?????
I have 4 different telephones in my home and its not exclusive to any one number.
Living in other countries, including Asian Countries, it would be unusual to get a incorrectly dialed number maybe more than once per month. In Thailand I consistently get 2,3, 4 or more per day. Today alone, I just a few minutes ago recieved the 6th for today. And then to beat all, as if not believing they could have the wrong number, they use the re-dial to call again.
If I am not mistaken these wrong numbers do carry a charge [to the receiver] if made from a handphone.... What is it, the ego trip to have everyone see you using a hand phone and be danged what number you get, thats not important, the important thing is that everyone knows you ae very important because you have a hand phone...
Ok, that is now out of my system, now I can get my blood pressure down with a good cold Chang.

Paper Moon.
Ronald Reagan was married to that woman from Dynasty.
Hey toopeekaa 1 when you set a quiz isn't the quiz master supposed to know the answers already. Unless of course it's the pub quiz at the Irish Pub.
Well Lamphun, I'm sure you are correct. But quiz ??? What quiz, H*ell all I was trying to do is get an answer to a question ....
The whole thing started when I commented to another thread, the jacka** who got cheated at the Bkk Airport and WON.... which made me think of the Steve McQueen movie; which made me root for the bad guy [McQueen]; which made me want to donate to the cause of the bank teller at the airport to hire some guy to kick the jacka** in the A hole; which reminded me that I didn't know the name of the movie; which made me ask the question, and the ###### thing just got out of hand from there .......
Now what Quiz ?????
I have no idea if Ronald Regan was getting it on with Jane Wyman or Bonzo ......
or both ..... Aids had to start somewhere .....

Speaking of Slim Pickens' movies - wasn't he the Air Force guy in the Peter Sellers movie about "Dr. Strangelove; and How I Learned to Love the Bomb" who rides the bomb down to the target bareback, waving a cowboy hat?
And didn't Ryan O'Neal father Tatum O'Neal, and didn't father and daughter play together in a movie as father and daughter?
And wasn't Ronald Reagan formerly married to the more famous movie star, Bonzo?
and the common link was each was having a love affair with the other.... Oh Doctor Strangelove ... indeed

Final Countdown was the film!
What was the male lead's name ,,,,, the guy who got old with her >>?//

I was asked along with about half the others last Sunday, to show money. Same drill in December & November.
See separate thread about oranges from Burma.
Oranges in U.S. have been dyed to make them look nice for a long time. Little health risk unless you're making candied orange peels.

Mali, it looks like, from your post that you do the run monthly,.... this is what may be and probably is the cause for the individual checking. It seems that most with a longer term visa, or Non Imm, are the ones not being checked. If you plan on a stay for a longer period, it may be wise to look into getting some type of longer term and more appropiate visa, rather than just he 30 day. You will only have more and more problems in the future if you continue this monthly run.
-
Constable,
Nice try but not quite.
Mali is not a competitor.
Mali is one who is owed money.
Somewhere I think I read once ....... " Never a lender or borrower be ........
Don't fret Mali, this is not an attack on you, we have all done it, loaned money..... many times we wish to help a friend, who may turn out to be, and should have been classified as an accquaintance, then turns out to be neither... Sorry to say I've done it before and more sorry to say I will probably do it again......
However I don't count this party in that grouping..

Yes the Getaway. Ali McGraw was married to a big producer by the name of Evans, but dumped him for Steve McQueen during the filming.
Whatever happened to Ali McGraw ?
Alec Baldwin did a remake of it a few years back.
Re Ali McGraw.... I think heard some years back that she had died of cancer.....
hope I'm wrong,,,,, always liked her ... making snow angels w/ Ryan O'Neal, or maybe thats where she died of cancer....... remember " a mind is a terrible thing to waste" or if you can't speak "a Mime is a terrible thing to waste"
I think it was her who starred with [ now I can't remember whats his name] James something maybe McArthur , in the movie where the nuclear Aircraft Carrier went back in time to WWII and then returned and the two stayed and got to be old folks by the time the carrier showed up again..... with Kirk Douglas I think...
Anyhow I think it was about this time or shortly after that she passed away

No Cheating..... want to hear from someone who still has his memory about himself..... Using Google is the same as someone else telling you...
Steve McQueen Running for the Mexican Border with the loot from the heist..... Was the girl Ali McGraw, I think they were befriended by an old Mexican guy in an even older pick up truck and gave him part of the loot
What was the name of the movie ?

They look like the tangello we used to get in New Zealand. More juice in them than two regular tangerines.
Great on a hot day, and its nice to find something Burmese that's edible.

Oh I don't know...... I found something Burmese very very edible..... heh, heh. heh
And Ajarn 35 Boxes !!!! Man where is your shop??? I want to come and buy some or are you trying to corner the market ???? They are great though.

So, it landed on one engine? Glad I wasn't on it!
Bangkok Post 2nd Dec 2004
He said TPC now had ample cashflow of around 17 million baht per month, and had not sought further government financial support.
Have I missed something ?
How does it generate a monthly income ?
17 new suckers per month

After seeing the first message in this thread, I didn't return until now.... Kinda figured it would end badly for him here- at his own hands, too....
Too much medication, or not enough, Granny used to say...
Oh, you're just too smart (and loaded with the patience of Job) for us poor unfortunates who do run into problems occasionally, and have the disgraceful tendency to get upset now and then; you superior specimen and master of condescension -- thanks for your wisdom, Your Excellency!
You're welcome, my son
Ajarn...... you are just going to have to get a better class of subjects....... Some of them are starting to get a little lippy,,,,,,,off with their lips..... preferrably just a wee bit above the shoulders.
"for us poor unfortunates who do run into problems occasionally" Most, I say most of the time caused by their own piss-head-iness paying too much attention to the bottle and not enough attention to their own image and actions.
Now to the his *ssholiness liberlipmore...
yeah offcourse $100 is not abig deal to me...But let me tell ya something..Ive never been cheatedbefore..So this is my first ...Well i did all this just forthe sake of revenge to that old piesce of shit exchange cleark...So that he will learn his lesson not to fool around with any foreighner here....I am doing all these for the foreighner so that this old bastard will not cheated any single souyl anymore...For every1 info that guy have been axe...good day
Don't know about the rest of you, but I think that this jerk [liberace or whatever] has been putting us all on from the beginning.... go back over his posts and see where he can spell certain words in some cases and where in a later post he screws them up... the same as someone with an sub-normal mentality, writing and screwing up purposely... does sound familiar though, perhaps I read this work before....
Forget the fact of what he says as being just a big crock.. The only reason big daddy would come to his rescue for $100 would be because someone was picking on a 'retarded' child who somehow got away from the sitter. [sorry I forgot Royalty, make that minder] As well may be the case.
No, I think the poster is an imposter..... 'the imposter poster', just having a go at all of the members, because no one, no matter how much of a bubble head writing in a language other than his native language, could or would want people to read it.
However, it does put me in a frame of mind that I haven't been in for maybe 30 or so years. Those somewhat older may remember an old Steve McQueen movie, I think with Ali McGraw, where they got their hands on some bank money and were trying to get to Mexico...... I cannot remember any time since where I was so rooting for the bad guys to win and get away.
Thank you IMPOSTER POSTER, for giving me those good thoughts and feelings again, because if I see another post of your drivel, I will send some money to the so called bad guy so he can use some of his contacts to come and kick your *ss.
Look at the bright side ego maniac, at least you generated 4 pages of comment even if you wrote half yourself.
OH WHAT A GREAT MORNING ...... JUST TO BE ABLE TO EXPRESS ONE SELF... GOOD MORNING THAILAND

Oliver Hardy to Stan Laurel, "Well, here's another nice mess you've gotten me into!", many shorts, movies they made together.
Robert De Niro, ""You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? Well, who the ###### else are you talkin' to? You talkin' to me? Well, I'm the only one here. Who the <deleted>> do you think you're talkin' to?" , Taxi Driver.

Dirty Harry, "I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya punk?"
In Casablanca, people reckon Bogart said, "play it again Sam", but did he?
There are plenty of threads on TV which are not related to Thailand in anyway, seems P1P just doesn't like people taling about movies.
Didn't they say "Play it again Sam" Krup ?
