can you put me back on your ignore list? It was so cozy, peaceful, warm and fuzzy there w/o you. beside, I have a new stalker named "Somebody". ????

Hence the last statement. It would, however lessen the requirements for trips to the IO and the need for annual spending.

If he has the funds (selling everything back home perhaps) he could get an Elite Visa. God bless him if he lives to renew it.

This isn't the 1st time they've done this and it worked just fine in the past. My wife knew about this 2 months ago and is already making plans to visit her folks and get them set up for it.

The newest government party to be announced for the next race perhaps? ????

I know a few foreign English teachers that can't speak English any better than some on here. ???? Bob, so the rumors are NOT true?? You DON'T dress the misses up in a schoolgirl outfit, slap her on the butt and make her call you "Daddy"? ????

Immigration doesn't issue work permits, only the dept of labor does. Even then, they won't issue it until the IO issues a non-O or a non-B visa/extension.

is a farce unto itself. ????

I was "farmed out" by the school I taught at to another school 2 days a week. I still received my full salary from my school but understood they also received some funding from the second school. It was my understanding that the law was changed so that as long as you were being paid by school "A" they could "farm you out" to another school as long as you didn't get 2 salaries.

Look around Victory Monument and just follow the "Lines" out from there in the direction you work at.

The Bible says "...Ashes to ashes, dust to dust..." so it would seem cremation kind of speeds that along. As humans we tend to think about things in a different perspective than the "Hereafter" beings. A man asked God "How much is a million dollars to you?" and God replied "Just a penny." The man then asked God "How long is a million years to you?" and God replied "A second." Then the man asked God "Can I have a million dollars?" and God replied "Sure, just a second.".

Good to know I'm not alone in my youth experience: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=Ra-Om7UMSJc

OP - Is BKK your only option? My dad lives near White Rock (<-name?) near Rayong right across from the beach in a 2bdrm condo/apartment. It's around 125sqm (?) and pays about 10k. He bought an electric cart with a 50-60km range per charge for around 20k. If BKK is your only choice, a similar cart might be the way to go for rolling around instead of walking.

This should clear things up - made before hippies or social groups or even the internet - just government and science at it's best:

Just show up - stay 30 days - visit Laos for a week - come back - stay 30 days and go home.

For the hotel, your wife can use hers to check in - the airport?? you may have to hire a driver and car if not.

Have you thought about hiring 15 local villagers with large umbrellas? ????

How old are you? I ask because there's a nice retirement community on the outskirts of Chiang Mai that you could rent from (if you know your approx date of arrival) that is 100% full service including rides around town. The CM residents on here probably know the name off the top of their head. You could book them for a couple of months.

circumvent the process correctly?

My 1/2, step, adopted brother is full Thai. My dad married his mother and adopted him. They moved back to the states. He joined the marines then took his college benefits and studied engineering and now works for NASA. (He was part of the design crew for the Mars rover). He wouldn't go back to Thailand if you paid him. ETA: He's not mixed race, just mixed cultural upbringing - seems Thailand appeals to the old with money and not so much the young.

TT&T and TOT own most of the high speed rights in BKK. The True store people probably just sell service w/o ever checking if it's possible. Many condos don't want dishes planted on their property as it detracts from the look. As stated many times, just check with the condo before ordering anything. We ordered TT&T and had service the same day.

Why don't a couple of you Brits volunteer to go down to the beach, drink a beer and have a pee so they could authorize a "crackdown"? Can't justify the funds for only Thais - No photo op.

I use my mouth - does everything you mention and cost nothing. Only drawback is you need to wait till the next morning for the "smoothie" to come out. ????

People are more excited at night because the bargirls sleep until noon. ????

I would work on getting everything out of the US and into Thailand or 1 of the offshore banks while you can. Those morons in DC are getting the IRS to track transactions above $600 and another moron is pushing for a 59% "Death Tax" to override current inheritance laws (not taxed below $1.2m or some such) If 1 of your close trusted friends is a single female, maybe marry her if you think she'll outlast you.
