You've got to be much more wimp-wristed than a Thai ladyboy to not handle a CBR150.

However, no work permit is needed to be Surpreme commander - you needn't even spell it right.

Being over 60 didn't make me more respectable - they treated me worse than Thais. I had twice the energy and stamina of most 40-year old Thai teachers. And related well with 12-to-18 year old Thais. And taught better than the Thais.

I never saw the sense in getting O-A issues. Expensive.

I have always found the staff at Buddy to be great.

Actually I could say the worst customers were Shittish, but I try to say nice things.

Actually, the only two verses that forbid male-male sex expressly bless Jewish males who put their penises inside the mouths and anuses of all their wives and sex-slaves. Those verses require the same-sex men to be put to death. Yet not one verse mentions the same-sex men being put to death. I bet they never put them to death. The Law of Moses is dead. No such law exists for Christians.

I created nine fetuses heterosexually through heterosexual intercourse, and six were born alive, which I ended up raising single-handed. The only people who have out-created me made ten or more fetuses. Everybody else is a straight underachiever. They have no right to pass judgment of my sex life. And seeing that Thais don't even replace themselves any more, they have no right to criticize Thais about their adult sex life.

I'm your worst example. But maybe I'm your best example. I didn't try twenty words the first four years. Becker was worthless. The small beginner's class at the YMCA was teached by an MA in Thai who couldn't teach Thai to farang. Neither could the teacher at CMU. Worthless. Now I can't write Thai letters. Nor if I could learn spoken Thai after five years of successful study, would I have substantial conversatians.

Fewer than a million Thai natives are fluent in English (and they don't run in our circles).

Heterosexual anal and oral sodomy was perfectly fine for Jewish men to commit with all their wives and all their sex concubines. And probably with all their female non-Jewish harlots. Majority rule does not determine law. Thai men and women do not kiss in public, let alone do sex in public, even heterosexually.

Americans do irony, too.

Does your Thai wife have a MEd in education? Can your wait at least 1.5 years to be approved?

Declining birth rates for 35 years, and now well below replacement rate. Not enough babies, and the seniors are very sick. And I bet too few Thais will do anything healthy about it.

I got full face "Nolan" replicas at Pridi on Chiang Moi for 1,500 baht - no stickers. And a full-face Avix AX-32 for 500 baht with Thai DOT stickers.

We get our laundry done for five hundred baht per month for two people, including pick-up and delivery. We wash our own linens.

From my novel about a Maya woman who understood men. "it is about the love of one good man for another. Your grandfather was such a man. We married a month before we were fifteen years old, and Mariano already loved his friend, Manuel. In those days, some men had two lovers, his wife and another man...Mariano was a hard-working, devout Christian. Some husbands were drunkards, with other wives or girlfriends. They did not have enough money for all the babies they made. But men do not make babies when they lie together. Mariano never wanted another woman.”

Thanks again to all the well wishers. Don't use the walker now.

You can probably buy something for 30K. And worry about losing it the first week. Or buy a decent full face at 2K. I can't see out of one side; I always wear full face and turn my neck.

There are a few fairly good English programs out there. But they are few and far between, and they are managed by Thai's who don't know a hod carrier from a teacher.

It's a shame. PB, I know you have kids and know a lot about teaching in Thailand - if you had young kids here where would you put them?

I would only consider an international school. Or never bring them here or have kids here.

I don't mean your American kids. Do you mean if you moved here and married a Thai woman, you wouldn't have kids because of the schools?

I've experienced international students who have forgotten their Thai roots, which is a shame.

I know an American married to a Thai for over 16 years, all of it in Thailand. No kids - and the stated reason is that the social system and educational system stinks.

18 months old. Traveling with NZ and Thai parents, both ways. Does she need documents to leave Thailand, enter NZ, and return, besides her Kiwi passport?

I didn't come here for the food, either.

It's easy - you just get the million people who paid a million baht for the Thai Elite Card... that was 1500 people.

My error. The first sentence meant he wasn't in Kansas any more, and we ride under-650 cc bikes here.

The second sentence meant that before 2008, the only legal 650-and-over bikes cost over 500,000 baht.

///Added: the only over 200 cc bikes.
