  1. I agree it would be wise to leave an aggressive husband but it's difficult not to listen to your heart. Her husband beats her up once in a while so what? She told that her husband is a very nice loving man at other times. I would rather ask women leave their dull and boring non-beating husbands. I think Soph should consider carefully gains and losses but she can't count on he'll give up beating. They rarely do!

    That Has to be one of the Most idiotic things I have ever heard. Its easy to say he is loving most of the time.. Untill one day he goes really over board and you dont wake up . No Woman or child ever deserves to be touched by A man.... End of story. Soph It is hard but you need to get away NOW.. dont wait it will get worse with time... I have seen this happen to my family and it sucks. The longer you stay with him ONE THING IS FOR SURE YOU WILL HAVE A VERY DIFFICULT TIME EVER TRUSTING SOMEONE Again.... My Sister still doesn't ... Plain and simple forget the excuses you HAVE TO HAVE THE LOVE AND RESPECT FOR YOUR SELF TO LEAVE. No one else can do it for you..

    Best of Luck to you Soph you truely deserve better.

  2. RAVISHER
    Personally I like a woman to have 'been around some'. I want her to already 'know' the difference between good sex, average sex and bad sex. I don't want her 'wondering' about it afterwards. 

    you're on your fifth (5th) wife now are you ravisher ?.........hmmmmm....... :o

    That I am taxexile.

    Nothin personal Ravisher, but I dont think I will be taking advice about marriage and women from you..... :D:D

  3. Maybe I have lived here too long or gone local, or something. But frankly, it is becoming more and more difficult for me to enjoy a night out with my fellow farangs living here. I know Thailand isn’t perfect and I go off about something at least once a day, but night after night, and week after week, and year after year of the same old whines and cries and moaning is just more than I can take.

    I prefer to hang out with the tourists or newbies or the locals for the most part.

    I know there are whiners everywhere around the world, but the long-term expats in Thailand are some of the most miserable and unpleasant people I have ever been around.

    I must like it here, since I live here, and no one is putting a gun to my head making me stay, and I don’t feel any desire to spend large chunks of my life listening to people putting down the choices I have made, and feel pretty good about. Maybe, it is just the ones around my age (40ish) who are basically unhappy, I am not sure. Maybe I should start hanging out with a younger or an older crowd.

    How many times does one want to hear how Thais are stupid, corrupt, dishonest and so on in one’s life? Especially when one is married to a Thai and have children who think they are Thai?

    So here I am complaining about the complainers, a bit ironic isn’t it?

    Nicely Put.... !! :o:D

  4. I think its ok to have a whinge about Thailand, sometimes things here just annoy the sh1t out of me, but thats life, things annoy me back in the UK too, its a balance.

    What does annoy me though is the posters who say 'if you dont like it go home' all the time, especially the ones that only have been to Thailand for a holiday and never lived here which is a large amount of people on this forum.

    A lot of you have never lived in Thailand on a full time basis and have little idea of what that is like, it can get you down sometimes.  Let them moan I say, as long as its something worth moaning about.  :o

    Hey is it okay if I say to people who want to moan about Thailand. IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT GO HOME> After spending 2 years here now I think I can honestly say its better for me than my home country...lol

  5. killing for eating it is absolut OK.

    But a snake is not going into your house with the plan to murder you and your family. If it is left alone or relocated the problem is also solved.

    In Thailand there were people killed by elephants or by foreigner but still noone gets the idea to kill all chang and farangs.

    The snake only bites you when it worries for its own life, as you are most probably to big to get swallowed down by it. So as you have the bigger brain, it is up to you to solve a meeting with a snake without killing one.

    100000000000000000% sure I'd kill it. 

    Then later I may Google it up to see how friendly it was.  Not taking chances with snakes around my family.  Or dogs, for that matter, and yes I do realize dogs are a bigger threat than snakes, likely. 

    Dogs are smarter though. If you beat it up once, they know to stay away.  With snakes, well, you get the picture.  Plus you can eat snakes, whereas few people enjoy eating dog. (esp. not Soi dog).

    Next poster who disagrees, please also explain why it's ok to catch and kill fish and chickens but not snakes.  Thanks. :o

    Cheers,

    Chanchao

    MAKE DA*N Great CHILLI...!

  6. there is a word for curses that work because people believe them, can't remember what it is though. but for instance in voodoo-ism, if someone jinxes you and tells you about it, and you believe it strongly enough, it will come true. nothing to do with the voodoo, but your own brain manipulating things.

    truer words have never been spoken... Just don't think about it....

  7. I don't buy into this.

    A guy's hydraulics don't work if the woman is an old minger.

    ps

    Viagra cannot help, as if you don't actually 'fancy' the person, the chemicals don't work.

    Thats why all these old blokes who buy viagra to take with their 70 year old wife find that they still can't get wood. However, if they take a pill when with an 18 year old minx, it works fine.

    If that were the case, then how about the really old bald ugly gay types running around with a young Thai bloke get on........ :o

    Assume the old geezers are doing the buggering!! :D

    :D

    UhhhGG Nasty

    :D

  8. I've noticed the way some Thais treat animals though it is really quite cruel. We live with three dogs and yesterday I stopped the children punching them  :o

    They also got a puppy the other day as a gift for my Step-mums brother. Her sister has dropped it one hundred times and when she does they all find it funny! My Dads other ex Thai wife had a dog in England, she used to beat it with a wooden stick everyday if it didn't eat it's food. The dog unfortunatley grew up to be so nasty we had to put it down  :D

    My step-mum's other sister also got a puppy and threw it out when it was older because it wasn't cute anymore.

    If they want to buy a dog then why don't they learn how to look after it?

    Seems people like to pick on the Thais here, but forget about the tract records of their own countries... Its not about Religion, the simple fact is you get bad people no matter what country or religion they are... There are just as many things happening to animals and people in the western world... But then Hypocrasy comes in all forms!

  9. A related question...I have an IBM Thinkpad with Windows XP. It has the Microsoft Windows XP Professional Product Key on the PC, but I did not get a Windows XP Pro CD when I purchased the unit. In the event that I need to replace or upgrade my HDD can I use any Win XP Pro CD (borrow one from someone), but use the product key on my sticker?

    Yes u can

    I AM GOING :o:D reading all this stuff............Some of these things your saying are really outa here........ IF you purchased the computer new chances are that you a restore disk with it... this is used to restore your pc to the original state.... Personally I don't like to use it as it really is nothing more than a shodow image or the original....

    For the WIN XP DISK and PRODUCT KEY.. This most likely will not work with someone elses disk... UNLESS the disk came with the same brand computer....There are many different builds of XP PRO and HOME. This PRODUCT KEY may not work with other builds...

    As for formatting the drive ... GET AN XP DISK... boot to the disk choose install new version of xp choose F8 for the license agreement and then choose to setup on C:. Follow the steps It is really very simple. MAKE SURE TO CHoose to format the drive with NTFS file system......

    OHH And almost forgot... all these other ways they have told you can work, but file HDD will still be formatted anytime you do a fresh install.. ....

    1 other thing as for losing data... you have to format a drive 5-7 times to completely remove all traces from the hard drive. ....

    All of this sounds more complicated than it really is.... But Ajarn Mark Seems to have a pretty good handle on it...

  10. hi all......kids messing :o  with my computer now system goes strait to firefox and i can not find my internet explorer which i prefer too use. tryd windows download sight but just updates there????????running xp home trying the back up thing now..  thanks for your input on this.... :D

    Try searching for IE then once found set as your default.

    Right on .... The EXE file (exacutable) for Internet Explorer in Windows XP is found in c:\program Files\Internet explorer\Iexplorer.exe... . If the Kids have deleted it from your desktop and Program files on the start menu. just open my computer and look in the above path. You can also download the IE setup from www.microsoft.com search for Internet Explorer 6. Hope that helps.

    VETI

    MS Internet Explorer can be uninstalled by going Start - settings- Control Panel- Add/Remove Programs... When this comes up on the left side choose add/remove windows COMPONENTS.... Uncheck the Internet explorer box and hit next. THIS WILL UNINSTALL THE INTERNET EXPLORER SERVICE. HOWEVER I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS AS IT CAN BE HARMFUL TO THE STABILLITY OF YOUR SYSTEM

  11. Might I suggest everyone boycott 12 call (AIS)?

  12. thanks Ajarn, I am a bit naive when it comes to these techno things

    I will try to understand the whole thing....

    Seonai

    Another way of looking at it.. Think of it like MAS Transit, You are on the freeway and there is road construction so you have to take a detour. The Proxy in essance provides a detour to get to the site that you are looking for. Therefore creating a new way to get to blocked sites...

    :o

  13. waiting......

    A proxy server is a kind of buffer between your computer and the Internet resources you are accessing. They accumulate and save files that are most often requested by thousands of Internet users in a special database, called “cache”. Therefore, proxy servers are able to increase the speed of your connection to the Internet. The cache of a proxy server may already contain information you need by the time of your request, making it possible for the proxy to deliver it immediately. The overall increase in performance may be very high. Also, proxy servers can help in cases when some owners of the Internet resources impose some restrictions on users from certain countries or geographical regions. In addition to that, among proxy servers there are so called anonymous proxy servers that hide your IP address thereby saving you from vulnerabilities concerned with it.

    Prox's CAN however be blocked as well

    Hope that helps..

  14. you're all ning nongs

    this is misdirection

    it is about control of the internet and freedom of speech

    you seem to be running off like chickens without heads as soon as a debatable subject comes up

    its not about rape of images of sexual nature

    its about controlling ALL content

    get it right then from this perspective look at what it will be like ni a few years time

    :o

    BlackJack Right on spot.

    More and More countries are adopting the chinese way of censorship.... Its about controlling people, invasion of privacy and so many other issues... Politicians are trying to censor the right of freedom of speech. And its going to come back to bite them in the *(&% !!

  15. It seems to be like this already... so many POLICY DENIED when you surf in Thailand.

    But it seems that M. PM doesn't know that any website will be forever available with a good proxy!

    Hope that they wont block websites the chinese way... (block all, and let some works!)

    Yes this has already been ongoing for a while now. Don't tell him about the proxy servers or they'll be blocking free proxy sites next.

    Anyway... nothing like a good crackdown! Back to the football!

    Lets face it this is just another attempt by Thaksin to control the masses.! :o

  16. Government goes ahead with plan to establish 'Suvarnabhumi Nakhon'

    ==================================================

    What a super-relieving & comforting thought this must be, for the Thai Citizens in the South of this wondrous nation . . . . . .

    Killed yesterday, were yet another 8 (EIGHT !) more human beings, amongst which an Abbot, two Tempel-boys and a couple of soldiers . . . . but hey; yeah ! ! ! - Let's create a new province in honour of the new Airport ! ! ! !

    Bah ! ! !

    :D:D:D:D:D:D

    This is a good thing , more jobs to go around for other people . Look at it as the glass is half full not empty . Open your eyes !

    Way to Go guys (Thai officials* THAKSIN) You continue to care only about personal gain. :D

    Must be Taking Lessons from US and UK politicians.. :o

  17. Limbo.

    I have limited experience, but when you've collected your luggage and just before you enter the arrival hall proper you pass a desk with 2-3 ladies behind a TAXI sign asking you if you would like one. "How much?" "200 baht." Seems OK - but the "taxi" turned out to be a ten-seater minibus. Fortunately I was the only passenger...

    On another occasion we were three people arriving and paid a proper taxi 400 baht for all of us. Seems reasonable.

    A tuk-tuk is, as Limbo says, 100 baht. Not so good of course, if it's raining.

    Paid Baht 350 for a proper taxi up to Mai Chan... Just be sure to pay at the counter. Dont take one of the taxi's with out it. IT WILL COST YA.! :o

  18. Heh Moog right on point.... I would make a snyde remark about them but I am paid WAY to much to risk upseting the good folks here in the land of contracts :D

    I'm sorry but I'm going to have to bust your a** here.

    Just what do you mean you're not going to 'accept that crap' in Thailand? You work for one of the worst corporations on the planet (cuz the money's good, oh, I guess that makes it ok). You're part of the problem in Iraq. You're part of the reason Muslim extremists hate so much. You are a parasite. Thailand ihas many Muslims, do you care about them? Or do you just like going there to spend your little share of the money American taxpayers are donating to the Halliburton cause?

    I take exception to your comments about the situation in Iraq and American Taxpayers. NO Matter if we wanted to be there or not We are there because we are ordered to be. I was not there for fun or money, my friend did not die there for money. We served there becuase We believe in the principals that America was founded on. My friends family lost a father and a husband. you want to talk about how bad we are and how the muslims hate us. You Seem to forget about the People who lose loved ones there. How do you think We feel serving there when we know that many of our own country men Hate us for what we are doing? We Serve because We are ordered NOT FOR MONEY. :o
