  1. Just make sure you have enough of that. I know a guy who used the rest of his supply to make the final trip as smooth as possible and at a time of his choosing.
  2. Win/win. All those fanboys can go now to that place and wait in line with all the other red-shirts together. And the rest of us can just have an espresso somewhere else if possible far away from the red-shirts.
  3. I just received these. I ordered 22cm and 24cm long - that was the largest. I received 2 times about 23cm long, no difference. I can just about squeeze my hands into the gloves.... So if anybody else wants to order these: Don't do it if you have "farang hands".
  4. I read about that. Let's see how many drug dealers will suggest that they should serve their sentence in their villa on the beach. It will be difficult to apply such a law only to one criminal who until now didn't even spent one day in jail.
  5. Is it up to the government who will be jailed and who not? As far as I know all people who are convicted to jail without possible appeals go to jail. As far as I know there is only one person in Thailand who can pardon him. No government or PM can do that.
  6. I wonder how many girls wear it for cosmetic reasons - to make them look more mysterious or to hide anything in their face which they think is not perfect. I know a hotel manager who I first met with mask. She looked great. Now no mask anymore. She still looks good, but her real face is not as good as my imagination was.
  7. Don't worry about me. I am not a wanted criminal. And I didn't annoy lots of rich and influential people. Will Thaksin ever be able to walk on a street or in a market without some bodyguards around him? I have my doubts. It's so sad for him.
  8. When I was young my friends had an incident with fire in a car. The time from the moment that they saw a little smoke until the moment the car was immersed in flames was very short. Like: get out, now! Anybody who waits takes a huge risk. I hope someone explains this to bus drivers in Thailand. Good luck that this driver reacted fast.
  9. It depends on how high it flies. If I can ride above the traffic on Sukhumvit then it might be interesting. ????
  10. Lots of people still wear masks. But IMHO it's no problem if you don't. Now I only wear a mask when I go to a hospital or i.e. a crowded sky train. I don't wear a mask in shopping centers or outdoors or when I visit restaurants. No problem. I suggest just make sure you have a mask with you if there is a situation where you think you should wear one, i.e. in a hospital. About "dirty looks": I gave up thinking about any looks which I get since I have a pretty girlfriend many years ago. Some people look, some people don't look. Why do they look? Because my belly, my t-shirt, my hair, no mask? I don't know and it doesn't make sense to try to understand why people might look, there are hundreds of possible reasons. Since many months I never had anybody telling me I should wear a mask.
  11. Good that business leaders and politicians talk about that. Maybe I missed the news in previous years, but it seems to me at that time politicians decided about wage increases so that they get elected. And they didn't really care what businesses think about that move.
  12. The business visa is a stamp like a table with lots of lines. In the left bottom corner is written "Category Non-B". The Extension of Stay does not contain a category. Just dates.
  13. I just saw these stories together on the right side. Should they send another cage to Dubai?
  14. A couple of years ago I applied in the Thai embassy in Phnom Phen for a Non-B visa. At that time, I had to submit the documents in the morning. And then I could pick up the passport with visa two days later in the afternoon. I.e. apply Monday morning, receive passport Wednesday afternoon. Now my employment ends and I want to apply for a tourist visa for two months. And then, in about two months, I want to go there again to apply for a new Non-B visa with new documentation from a new company. I have the following questions: a) Is it still the same that we have to apply one day in the morning and two days later in the afternoon it should be ready? Is that the same processing time for business and tourist visas? b) Are there any complications to apply for a tourist visa after having a business visa for many years? If they ask, should I tell them already that I will apply again for the Non-B visa after maybe two months when I have the new documentation? c) I read on the embassy website in Cambodia that I need "Evidence of travel in and out of Thailand (i.e. air ticket receipt paid in full)". I guess that means one return ticked from BKK to PNH to BKK is not good enough, because I have no ticket to leave Thailand after my tourist visa expires. I guess for that reason I have to buy already a second ticket BKK to PNH to BKK for two months in the future to cover that requirement. Correct? d) There is a field permanent address on the application form. My permanent address is my condominium in Bangkok which I own. But at the same time, I apply for a tourist visa to visit Thailand. All this might be a little confusing for the person at the embassy counter. I don't want to argue with them about all these details. Any advice? Thanks
  15. Just some general information: Many Thai dentists work in private hospitals, and they also work in their own clinics. Private hospitals charge double for the same service.
  16. Talking, talking, and more talking. He can just take any plane back to Thailand. He doesn't need a visa. He doesn't even have to think about a hotel booking or enough money to buy food. All will be provided to him, for free, for years. Come on, come back, we are waiting for you.
  17. Wow, so much money. I am impressed. Personally, I use also use credit cards and now online payment. It's so much easier than carrying around a wad of cash.
  18. Nobody should be surprised if more and more people support Ron DeSantis. He seems to be less crazy than others. And he actively does something against those crazies. And I say this as someone who normally would never vote for the GOP.
  19. There was this wonderful time of don't ask don't tell. And then a few very loud people decided it has to be center in our faces all the time. I miss the good old times.
  20. I think it's always funny to read such sentences. If that is a way to make tons of money, then why don't you buy property and make those tons of money? And there is a category c) Farangs who bought their own condominiums in Thailand.
  21. Apple might be interested in suppliers of "used parts". They don't want that any such parts are available for independent repair shops. So maybe they would help to prosecute that shop. It's just an idea. One phone call to find out. Worst case they say (a polite version of): we don't care.
  22. What do you put inside such bag? Hair spray and lip gloss?
  23. This obviously brings up the questions: What is a Pride Man? and What is a Pride Woman? Difficult times.
  24. I am sure they can - if they have some motivation. But then, they are also great in doing nothing. That is often documented in the news. It's all a question of motivation. Now tell us, why would they be motivated to solve this Apple phone crime with high motivation here and now?
  25. I will be dead. The big nothing. And because I will be dead, I won't know, and I won't care. Always Look on the Bright Side of Life I mean, what have you got to lose? You know, you come from nothing You're going back to nothing What have you lost? Nothing
