  1. Well by looking at this chart

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_frequencies

    and this chart

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecommunications_in_Thailand

    i think the important one is "3g technology" and "4g technology"

    so by the looks of it, I can have an ATT -> AIS

    or a Verozin -> True Move

    im just guessing on this, but I think its right

    btw... my n3 is a bit beatup and probably not worthy to sell

  2. Heyo, planning on coming over to LOS from USA in a few weeks and I wanted a Galaxy s6 that I could swap between a USA pre-paid and AIS pre-paid

    Right now I have a Note3 bought in Thailand that works on T-Mobile (bad service) in the USA, but not Verizon (best service)

    What I want to know is if I get the Verizon s6 (unlocked) will it work on the Thailand bands?

    Thanks in advance for your answers

  3. I think what the OP is referring to is American style pepperoni which is a mixture of beef and pork and has a fair amount of chili pepper in it. There is also available here pepperoni made by TGF which tastes more like a traditional salami as it is all pork. Not sure if there is even such a thing as pepperoni in Italy.

    If you ask for a pizza with peperoni in Italy you will get a pizza with red peppers on it. (Note the absence of the third 'p'.) A spicy salami is about as close to American style pepperoni as one will find in an Italian pizzeria.

    Ahh. but the Dukes is not an Italian Pizzeria. . it is an "amercain" place

    Love the pepperoni they use at Mr. Chan's. Definitely my favorite pepperoni I've had anywhere.

    Hmm.. would you consider it comprable to "amercain pepperorini"

    Baseline defintion for the internet sleuths and euros for amercain pepperonoi is same same you get at dominos. . :-)

    yes, probably correct. Im reffering to "american peppeorini" I guess, as it is on 95% of all pizzas you get in America. Whatever else is defined as "pepperoni" is not what I am reffering to.

    Now this being thailand I wouldn't actually expect any place that says "pepperoni" to actually be pepperroni, but seeing that the dukes

    is the dukes and there is an (amercain) duke behind it who states that he loves to eat, I would think that "pepperorini" means "pepperoni" not something else. . .

    so. . I guess we will call it salami and continue our quest

    (side question: anywhere in CM serve a real "amercain pepperoni" pizza?)

  5. Its all Limestone around here, Not sure if you really want to be doing trad in that. . but that is your personal call.

    There are hundreds of clean pristine sport routes here

    http://www.mountainproject.com/v/crazy-horse-general-area/106579963

    and another hundred unlisted and chossed up at up around Chaing Dao and some in Lampang..

    Im out of the area for a few months, but you can find partners by asking around at the climbing wall here https://www.facebook.com/ClimbNoGravity

    or at the CMRCA gym in the old city. http://www.thailandclimbing.com/bouldering-wall/ (they have a gear shop there too)

    if you really are set on doing trad in limestone, then, there are some awesome untouched multi pitch lines waiting for a FA up around soopong, if you are on a mission

    drop a PM and I will tell you where to look.

  6. There are dozens of fully functional resorts of all service levels in Pai that are completely empty 10 months out of the year. If you stayed away from December I am sure it would be easy to find a good one willing to hand over the keys... Best way is to show up and poke around. with a bike or car loop around the valley and just stop at one you like. they are all empty.

    and ...if you want Sattvic food, better do some serious supervision and QC and followup in the kitchen... they may think it doesn't taste good enough and throw in some MSG or pork when your not looking. :whistling:

  7. I want to get some decent swords shipped here from USA, nothing antique, but fine steel and blades

    the company shipping them is concerned about customs confiscating the swords as they are actually weapons

    since it would be impossible to get a somewhat realistic answer from anybody official, lets see

    what TV has to say...

    aside from the normal danger of having ANYTHING shipped in... is there any specific laws regarding

    swords or blades that I need to know about?

  8. Just before I moved I discovered Tequila Reef near the intersection. 100% authentic Tex Mex and the best Mexican I've had in Thailand. I used to live in San Francisco so I do know Mexican food (well - at least the variety served by U.S. Mexicans).

    I do need to mention my favorite Cafe in Pai too, the Witching Well. Everything they have is delicious - coffee, cakes, food, it's all great. And chef Anon occasionally makes specials that truly blow my mind. I've never actually seen a raspberry pavlova anywhere else in Thailand, let alone a perfect one like Anon makes. I even took a picture.

    you must have lived in some other San Francisco than the one in California....

    but yeah Witching Well is the bomb! They used to run a posh city bistro in HK and just ported the menu and quality over

    pumpkin soup or the deserts are my favorite

  9. You've got to try Charlie and Leks. It's before the police station on the same side of the street and they have a nice garden area out back and wonderful Thai food. Most of the veggies come from their own organic garden!!

    So are you Charlie or are you Lek?:lol:

    I am sure he is neither. Charlie and Leks is hands down best Thai food in town.

    for the Others, IanForbes Nailed it.

    Though best burger in Asia is at the Burger House.... try the juicy lucy....
