    I read it too fast. I thought it said a 365 year delay! Probably more accurate.

    The pittance that the police make from these rodents to ply their trade is hardly worth the irreperable damage they are doing to the image of Thailand for tourists. No one wants to see their streets or neighborhood overrun by these slimeballs, yet there they are. Typical Thai short sightedness. Make a few baht today with no thought about the future consequences.

    Undercooked chicken or bacon and overcooked beef...you bet I will send it back. Especially, in upscale places where you're paying real money.

    Soi 11 has been blissfully free of these rodents for the last few weeks.

    The Chinese started the whole thing 40 years ago when they force fed a couple of million ethnic Han Chinese into the Uighur homeland of Xingiang, effectively making the Uighurs a minority in their own country. Uighurs are Turkic people who have inhabited the Western steppes for centuries before the Chinese occupation. Get your facts straight.

    My condo in Jomtien was the epicenter for low class yahoos of every stripe on a short term rental until the crackdown a few years ago. Its a lot better now, but some jerks still manage to get in occasionally, especially in high season.

    Gourmet Market in BKK carries Q brand frozen shrimp that are quite tasty and reasonably priced. Instant shrimp cocktail...just defrost. Deveined, cooked and ready to go.

    You want heat? Either way, I never expect a cooldown until mid June.

    Whoever it is, I like the writing style; he's got some witty metaphors and, as Spock said in Star Trek 4, some coloful adjectives.

    Does the Pattaya bus go to Jomtien?
  11. LALes
    Jomtien blows. Take it from someone who has lived there for 17 years. Boring, bar infested nothing. Beach water ain't clean, either. No mall, one supermarket. Most things you need you have to go in to pattaya for. If you don't drive, that means public transportation. That means hot sweaty overcrowded.Baht busses that take thirty to forty five minutes to get into pattaya. I try and spend as much time as possible away from there.

    Did he have to forfeit his signing bonus?🙃

    I muted the sound and took a dump.

    Old bartender's joke. What's the difference between a bartender and a proctologist? A proctologist only has to look at one <deleted> at a time.

    Its called sarcasm. Look into it.

    So, its not enough to be a good driver and know where you're going. Now, you have to be a raconteur, as well. Sheesh.

    Arrest & Deport!

    I remember camping in the high Sierra of Yosemite National Park in the early 70s. Looking up from my sleeping bag out in the open was a very humbling site. Hard to get that feeling in the modern world. Good luck in your search.

    17 years without a prompem. Of course, I have the money in the bank and have never used an agent. After all this time, I know exactly what is needed and it takes half a day to get it all together and git 'er done. Jomtien.

    A little jail time might wake him up to the fact that he doesn't rule the world.

    High season is bad enough, but BKK is teeming with tourists for Chinese New Year. All trains maxed out all the time, unless you are in the suburbs. Add a free week to the mix and you have a nightmare.

    Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

    I hear there's a new pandemic in China just awaitin' to rear its ugly head. The last one didn't make a big enough dent in the population. They'll try again. In the absence of major war; famine, pestilence and disease have to take up the slack for the missing horseman.

    Subway gonna sue for defamation?😏

    The only Kirkland products brought into Thailand are dry goods which are much cheaper to ship. Meats and seafood that need refrigeration are too expensive. I'm sure the political climate here has a lot do with Costco taking a pass on Thailand. I'd kill for a Costco dog. Nothing in Thailand comes close.
