Many professionals learn massage in Wat Po. They learn a very much in detail step by step massage session which takes two hours. Maybe they changed it now but at least years ago that was the only session. Do you want 2 hours or 120 minutes?

Rick Beato explains in one of his videos on YouTube how software is used to correct the bad singing of some artist. And this software corrects it but by doing that it makes it all equal. Many of us will remember the times when there was no such software and no music videos. The artist had to be good, otherwise nobody would play them. Long time ago. And about making your own music. That reminds me of Coyote Ugly. The music was obviously the important part to watch that movie. ????

It seems most people in my building obey the rules. What I don't like are Airbnb rented units. There are big signs that this is illegal. But it seem people pick up keys at the official condominium management counter as if it is a hotel. It seems the big problem is that the main owner allows it. And it seems he is the one who would need to instruct the management to enforce the rules. He doesn't tell them so they don't do it. And then, this being Thailand, it is understandable that ordinary security guards and office staff don't want to tell those on an upper levels of that hacking order what to do. Better keep quiet...

No daddy, it was only 2000 per month. ????

I try to be not too judgmental. I can hear music from almost any time and lots of music genres. Some I like more and some not so much. Music changes over time, it changed a lot in the past, and it continues to change. And now a big part are obviously music videos. With some pretty girls and good videos almost any music can be sold. 169 million views on YouTube...

Once I looked a 150cc bike and they offered something like 2% finance. I thought: that sounds good. 2% per year is a good rate. But then they told me it's 2% per month... That was many years ago, I have no idea about current rates and prices.

In theory you are right. But in real life: Who cares? If the police stops riders and they don't have a license it cost often 100B without receipt. And even if you pay 400B at the station I don't think the police insist that you have to show them that you have a license. TiT! P.S.: I never had an accident and I don't know how much they care in that situation.

That would be logical. But since when do (Thai) women act according to logic?

If you are innocent then I guess not much will happen. How do I know? I don't. But I am pretty sure if it would be very easy for Thai women to create trouble for their boyfriends and husbands then it would happen more frequently. I don't think it happens frequently. Stay cool and don't let her provoke you to do anything which could compromise your situation. Good luck!

Just round them all up and put them for two weeks in quarantine.

Is he guilty? I find it always interesting and sad how many people are sure accused people are guilty. With the information from the article obviously I don't know if he is innocent or guilty. And I guess most other people don't know. Why not take the approach: We have to watch this guy and the police and make sure the case is not forgotten. Is there evidence? If yes, prosecute and possibly convict him. And if there is no evidence then there is no evidence. Why is it that many people are always sure about lots of things even if they have only little information?

I have to admit I am good enough to do the math (I know it's not so complicated), but I never ever thought about doing that. I just bought in a shop a size which I thought might be ok. And then I tried it. Fine, it works. And then later with another container I thought a smaller bag might work. I bought it, I tried it, and it didn't work. So next tile I will buy the bigger size. Problem solved - and maybe 50B wasted. But I am sure I can use the smaller bags for something else.

Just think it's breakfast time. And depending on the breakfast beer is a necessary part of that. ????

If you are happy with your situation that is obviously great. For me, since many years, including the time when I was back home, family was mostly headache. And if family members are already headache in good times then I am pretty sure things won't get better in bad times. At an early age I asked myself: Would I chose this and that family member as my friend? For some of them my answer was: "no". For other family members the answer was: "No way, never!" and only for few of them I would consider them as friends or even want them as my friends. Unfortunately many of us don't have a happy family - anywhere in the world.

Make sure to tell your bank to send the money in AUD so that it will be exchanged within Thailand to THB. Don't any bank exchange it before it arrives in Thailand! That is the rule for buying property in Thailand. There are also a couple of websites with detailed information. Just search for them.

Thaksin was ultimately responsible of the killing of about 2500 suspects. Please don't pretend he is no criminal.

The way I understand it those multi zone systems are perfect if not all indoor units are used at the same time. I.e. one unit in the office, another in the bedroom. Normally only one of them is on. Perfect.

So the voters could at least try. When did the majority vote for a not obvious corrupt politician the last time? And before some people answer with some names: When a new face supports a well known corrupt politician then the new politician is also corrupt - otherwise he wouldn't support a known corrupt politician.

What do you mean by no improvement? I didn't see any red-shirts on the streets for years and hear little about the criminal fugitive and his family. That is a huge improvement.

The biggest question for me is why Thai people don't vote for some honest competent people. Maybe things would get better...

I would love to see democratic elected honest and competent people to run the county. I think they should also get a very high salary. But as long as there are only the option of the criminal Thaksin and his family and the military I prefer the military. Obviously they are far from good but IMHO not half as bad a Thaksin. I didn't see any red-shirts in the streets for years, wonderful!

So it seems you have no evidence. IMHO almost all Thai politicians are corrupt. Some a little and some more. And if that happens somewhere in the background then that is bad enough but more or less unavoidable. When Thaksin was in charge he did a lot of that corruption in the open. Like: See, I can do that, and there is nothing you can do about it. Because there was nothing what realistically could have been done while he was in charge. Nobody dared to prosecute him and no judge would have dared to convict him. One of the prime example was Thaksin as PM giving a huge loan to Myanmar so that they could buy a satellite from Thaksin's private company. Thai loan to Myanmar helped Thaksin business -judge | Reuters I still think Thaksin could still be PM if he wouldn't have been so greedy. If he would have made some money in the background and let others do the same everything would have been fine or maybe I should say: Thailand as usual. But Thaksin wanted more and he thought he is invincible. He wasn't.

I was out for lunch yesterday in Sukhumvit in Bangkok. I didn't see anybody with water pistols or buckets of water. I was surprised by that. Wonderful!

How do you know they are more corrupt?

Maybe we can make a survey another day of how many guys actively gave money to their darling and how many gave her money because she demanded it. Lots of guys do thinks like: He: Darling, what can I do that you don't work in this horrible place anymore? How about if I buy you a house and support your parents? She: Sure darling, that sounds like a great idea. Win/win, both of them are happy. But maybe not happy ever after. ????
