  1. I am no expert on this situation but comparing it just a little bit to what Thailand had going it seems to me that Prayut is a huge improvement. So he isn't Buddha of Christ, but for a man he has a hell of a lot better interest in Thailand than the past cronies had.

    It's unbelievable how some of you foreigners can be so critical and you don't really understand crap about the situation.

  2. Sly was a complete moron and it is good to hear that he some really bad years. Sorry he got any of this money, well maybe he won't actually ever recieve it.

    "From Wiki---Personal life[edit]

    He married model-actress Kathy Silva on June 5, 1974 during a sold-out performance at Madison Square Garden.[30] After Sly's dog mauled their son in 1976, Silva left.[31]"

    I went to school with Kathy in Sherman oaks, California and like most of my school mates drooled every time we saw her. My sister was a closer friend to her than me and new her boyfriend very well at school. She was a very sweet girl.

    Sly took the girl and turned her into a junkie. She left him because he was a complete A--hole.

  3. My wife and I at lived in samui for 6 years, after several years on Samui, I was 45 years old at the time, we decided to check out the party at Hadrin. We arived at about 9pm and walked through the crowd. about 10 minutes later we walked to the dock to get the hell out of there. The last boat was just leaving and wouldn't take us, such nice island Thai folk, so we hung out at the pier until 6am before any boat would take us home. We got to talk all night with some younger Norwegian kids that thought the party sucked. Welcome to the Thai island life.

  4. Prey that you are never in a serious accident and picked up by the local privatized ambulance.

    They are known to drive you around for hours waiting for you to expire as it is worth more to them bringing in the dead than the seriously injured.

    If you don;t believe that just wait until it happens to one of your loved ones as it did to my wife fairly recently. If it happens to you it probably won't matter to you after your dead.

    One of our relatives worked for these guys and quit when he realized what they were doing. Oh yea, if you do arrive dead or alive you will be missing most all of your money and jewlery.

  5. It is true the US isn't the worst, It's just that much of asian governments are more respected by their people mainly because asian people actually have a respect for authority where little of the rest of the world does and rightfully so.

    Even before the coup I think Thailand was a better government than the states mailnly because unlike the states they were openly corrupt, everyone knew it and instead of a right wing party always thinking of ways to take away from the poor, Thailand is always trying to give better service to the poor , not that they do very much but they actually think about it and they have better roads. When I travel I always view a county by the quality of their roads. Check out Nepal. Really terrible democracy , really bad roads.

  6. I didn't mean for the US to get involved here. My misstatement. Yes the US pretty much screws up everything they touch. Unfortunately they are heavily involved here already and that is part of the problem. They keep pushing for a new election when it is not posible here.

    The military is Thailand's only short term hope to straighten some of the issues out. Thailand is just lucky who it is that took over as he , though not perfect, is sincere in cleaning up the crap here, not like Egypt and so many other military and supposed elected officials that are military backed.

    Obviously Thailand is a mess in so many ways but they have some temporary hope with the general, just not in every direction.

    The US , on the other hand is, over time even more f.ed up than Thailand. Much less concern for the rights of its people and more for the 1%.

    Obama's efforts were nearly meaningless. He did some temporary stop gap measures but they will crumble and even moreso with a Republican run government.It is all about feeding the rich and starving the middle and low imcome saps.

  7. This has nothing to do with politics. It is about a simple man with information that leads him to believe that there is global warming and it is dangerous for the future of mankind. He just happens to be a pope which if you aren;t Catholic you would never need to listen to anyway of course unless your constuents are Catholic and youér a stinken Republican.
