Most drivers/riders in CMai usually obey most traffic signals.

The above post may be in error.

femmi fan, a professor of dermatology at the medical school at CMU has an evening clinic just inside Chuang Pak Gate, on the left shortly before Thai Airways big office.

Same here - can't beat Buddy's, They emailed my passport and visa stamp photos and gave me copies.

The OP wants to limit the scope of discussion AFAIK.

I loved Robin Williams as Mork from Ork and as Mrs, Doubtfire....

Yes, OASDI at 6.2% is an old age, survivors' and disability insurance program. Retirement plans can be private or public. SS is actuarially flawed. Investing the trust funds in govt. securities is an investment strategy that did not plummet by over 50% last year.

Congressional pensions are separate, and they're high wage earners who earn pensions.

Too many issues here.

Serially, I see nit-noi Thai as mai bpen rai. The Mexican ESL/EFL forums use Spanglish. Songtaew, som tam, soi; wat's the matter with a smattering?

I'm gay, with six children. Parents don't say to their minor children, "that's where the whores get screwed."

Where were we? Oh yes, the old SriTokyo hotel, where many gay men lived. I'll bet Lanna Lavender as proposed will not last 6 months.

Since the OP knows Khun Churn, directly across from it is Khun Mor.

What's Khun Mor like PB? I don't like Khun Churn, is it similar?

Much larger menu. Lots of veggies but gai, moo, plah, beef as well. I've been going there recently and get chicken-cashew-steamed rice. Other times, I'm a cowpat guy. I like Kuhn Mor more, frankly.

Edited title and sub-title

Also saw a very well restored later VW (Type 3?) Karmann Ghia in CMai, but that was awkward. i used to see A 1959 Vauxhall Victor Super Saloon and an MG Magnette drophead, but that was in Tapachula, Chiapas, in 2000...

The Yanaha Fino is retro Lambretta, and Thais buy it. May be the exception. Has Tiger sold 11 retro bikes to Thais?

Lanna culture is 1,200 years old; Harinpunchai.

Natee, ChiangMai 51 redshirts, Isaan natives who moved to San Camping, you and I, et al (especially Alfred E. Neumann) cannot speak for others.

My first Thai teacher of English, my boss, spoke English well (when he spoke at all). He said writing was most difficult; yet he couldn't understand an English reading assignment for his master's course.

I've read English drafts written by Thai professors: atrocious English.

On a motorcycle, traffic jams here are extremely rare. Maybe for 5 minutes per month.

To build the Panama Canal, they needed to find a treatment that prevented malaria and yellow fever. US Army surgeons Walter Reed and William Gorgas saved the canal and started a long US Army tradition in public health.

"...Teachers should be trained to educate students."

Parents, teach your children.

Easiest ways for straights to get STD's: assume that only gays and drug users get STD's, and that every straight drunk is careful.

Neither.

Fluently?

Not many alternatives; hardly one. The Ninja 250 is far more expensive; the Tiger Boxer 231 not a sport bike.

One tiny step for mankind.

No, the world's best root canal rooter-outer may have been my specialist in Houston, an older Iranian lady who charged US$550 in the early 1990's. She took two hours and only one sitting. Crowns separately, later. Unlike Cheryl, all my RC's were one-stop; all 15 or more. My first rooter, who sang himself thru dental school and wasn't a specialist, said his technique was the modified Sargenti method. Wow, things remembered from Moore, Oklahoma in the 1970's. I hear the Thais can take 5 or more appointments.

I believe Dr. Greg's last name is Geer. Or Greer.
