The best price quotes I'm getting for travel to Bangkok from the U.S. are on airlines like United and Northwest. I didn't enjoy Northwest to Bangkok as the entertainment options were more like you'd see in the 1980s, i.e. no AVOD or even video display at each seat, just a movie screen at the front of the compartment. Horrible, in this day and age, I think. But how about United, do they have AVOD (personal video in the seatback in front of you where you can watch your own channels, movies and shows on demand and a pause/play button) on their Boeing 777 to Tokyo and from there 747 to Bangkok? Anyone know? Talking about economy class.

How's the service on United in general?

I just checked and it looks like Northwest has brought back the A330 on the NRT-BKK route. The last time I flew on their A330, there was a AVOD system so I presume that it is the same as now.

Is not the Air bus A330 the one with the problems with the speed sensers?Wich could be the cause of the crash off of Brazil just the other day.I myself enjoy flying with Korean Air from the US to BKK.I have never had a bad flight and that includes with the kids.The price is always competitive with other airlines.The food is good,as long as you get the Korean meal.The other meal sucks.They have a good selection of movies in the seat back and they do seem to care about you when you ask for something.The one thing that I have noticed is the people that like to drink alot of alcohol will have a problem.They do not like to let you get drunk.That is a good thing though.

Unless you are planning on cashing a LARGE amount of money,travler cheks are not the way to go.The fee will eat up any savings.Unless you think getting a satong or two more for your money is worth it and the hasle of finding a place to cash them.You will also find that many banks will not cash them and almost no money exchanges wil.

The http://www.rabbitresort.com/ in Jometin is just great.Has a pool that you walk into for the kids and another pool for the adults.It is right on the beach,great place.

Never ever try to change THB to Dollar in the US.You will get RIPPED off compared to what you can get in country.

Blue eyes,

Tex Mex is not the same as Mexican food. ...which is it?  Best Mexican food or best Tex Mex?

That is why I said "let me re state this"It was an edit to say that it is not the most authintic Mexican food but the best Tex-Mex food.It is still a very good product that they turn out if you are looking for something other then Thai food.

Sunrise Tacos about soi 12 and Sukhumvit.Has the most authintic Mexican food in SEA.They opened antother one in The Siam Paragon but never been to it.Let me re state this.

The best Tex-Mex food in SEA.

Thanks - that's right in line with her price.

I do not think so.A half acre is about 1 rai.So that would be 1 mill per rai.

Amsterdam come on.....that video is a fake and will do nothing but make the anti gun idiots say, see I told you those gun people are crazy.One thing that rixalex is forgeting is that no mater where you live in Thailand, is that,if you are a "farang"you are a "target".You are perseved to be "rich" and even if the area that you live in is considered "safe" you are the one target for the crimanal!This I can attest to as fact.As back in 1969 we were targets and we lived in a safe area in Bangkok,right next to the milatary base.Now it is in rural Issan and we know just about everyone in the area.But that is not the problem it is the crimanals that drive down the road and see the "farang" home.If they know you are armed they go elswere or they get shoot.

Happy and on target shooting

Which one of these are you thinking about building?Or is it something else?

i never bought drinking water

wait is beer considered drining water?

I tried the beer as water and no drinking water and ended up with heat stroke.Not fun

I need to send a letter to my gf's house near Mahasarakham and I was wondering if I should put the address in Thai as well as English. It just seems a bit presumptuous (not sure a big word like that fits with my normal limited vocabluary) to assume that whoever delivers the letter will understand English, even though they probably will.

When we send mail it is always written in English.Only 1 time has anything gone missing in all these years.

The somtum looks as if there is no suace or chilli....

I would take a guess that is because it has not been "pounded"yet.Som tum always tastes best right out of the "crock".

I'm looking for a hand Lime Squeezer in Bangkok, but only seem to find the same product available at every store, Emporium, Carrefour, Central Chitlom level 5 homewares, BigC etc

This is what I see at the stores :

Im looking for this design:

Any ideas?

I really like the one that you do not want I have used it for years.I have never seen the one that you are looking for but it looks like it would work much easier.I hope some one can find for us.

If your wife's skills at cooking aren't really up to par, why not encourage her to go to cooking school or picking up a cookbook. Make it a team project and have fun!

I collect cook books so there is no shortage of that in the home,a couple of book cases of.She has taken to looking on different Thai web sites to see and read recipes.She has a journal that she copies the recipes into that she wants to try.We have a very large garden so we have many herbs,vegtables and fruits.It is really great to walk out the door any time day or night and have what you need for to eat in the garden.

If you are joining me on the side of the chickens it is unlikely that you will be entitled to a zinger burger - my personal fight is to get the flavouring changed in the zinger as the Thais seem to make it a bit too dry.

pay me and i'll fight for what ever you like

Which would you prefer breasts,legs,thighs or wings or a combo with that as payment.Oh forgot ,regular or extra crispy?

Sorry my bad "double post"

Last it was the yellow shirts now the red shirts.I guess if we mix them it will be the orange shirts next.The wife was telling me that the red shirts are being picked up by bus in the villages and are getting paid to protest.For just a body to stand around to make the crowd larger they get 200thb.To really particapate carry signs scream and yell 200-500thb.If you are a leader of a large group about 2000thb.Supossadly the money is from Toxin.Not much different then the yellow shirts before.

No she is not the greatest cook around.I do most of the cooking,I enjoy it.Over the years she has been able to get better and find a few things that do taste very good.She has been studing the internet for recipes and it seems to be working out for us.

We just ordered a Honda Jazz a couple of days ago and delivery will be in about 8 weeks. The dealer did have one in the showroom that we could have taken immediately but it wasn't the color we wanted so decided to wait. So it is possible to get a new car without the wait if you happen to like what they have avaiable.

Do you know if your Honda Jazz is being built in India,Japan or Thailand?

Just soak in enough warm water to cover them.Put a plate or something to hold them under the water,because they will float.Depending on the mushroom and how old they are will determane how long to soak,from 10-30 minutes.Yes squeeze out the excess water and use it in the reciepe.

MZurf,

No it is not mumbo jumb if you are the one to see the ghost.

Howdy 1up,This one is a bit different then the one in your photo.

Oh the delicacies of Asia Photos of a meat market in Hanoi Vietnam.

Not exactly on topic, but has anyone who has had a breast augmentation heard about the necessity to daily massage the breasts, or more precisely the implants, so that no scar tissue is built?

(and NO, I don't need anyone to do this massage )

Yes my ex had implants,after the divorce,I hate them natural is the only way,you must massage them.She thought it would help her self esteem and to get a man.Did not work.About 4 years later one of them broke,She had no money or a man to help with the cost of fixing it so there she is with one 36D and one saging 32B.With scar tissue all around the areola.Not because of faluir to massage though.Because the areola was removed and then replaced to help with the raising of the breast.The part about massage has to do with keeping them from getting hard.They are placed under the muscle and if not massaged often,wich you can do yourself by the way,the muscle will get very hard and also the implants will not stay in the correct position.

I would imagine that if you tried to stuff a whole duck down your throat at the same time as breast feeding or not,you could possible die a slow death.But then again the positive would be on the other side,IF you tam boon on a reagular basis you would be reborn a happier and better person.
