  1. If you are planning to fly after your tooth extraction, it is best to wait at least 2 days or more before boarding a plane. Why? Because the changes in altitude and air pressure can cause you to have an unpleasant and uncomfortable experience. Not to mention the potential for a dry socket.

    Should plan for longer than 8 days. If your job doesn't want to give you the time off they may have to if haveing surgery. I extended my Thai vacations  I think 3 times having Wisdom teeth extracted just before flying back. US airline wouldn't have me fly right after extraction as they don't want you to bleed out from the additional air pressure. They changed my flites for free since I had a copy of oral surgery done. My supervisor knew what I was doing said to me you are going to be toothles if you keep going there. Told him only pulling the wisdom teeth.

    Its all over media in Thailand, so hir gf will have to return the property she took, cause everyone in her village will point a finger on her. And every corrupt cop in the province will look for her. Just think about it.

    They won't be looking or a waste of time because if he like so many other farangs bought and registered it  in her name she has the papers and will simply sell it.  Plus even if he bought/registerd the bike in his name she can return it in a few days/weeks and said she had permission to use it. Could also say her brother was visiting with a GF and that's where comdoms came from.  The  big surprise could have been an engagement ring but even if he gets the bike back I would advise  him to forget that.

    I wouldn't dispute that but this story could and does happen all over the world. Not sure why all the Thai bashing is going on and the reference to incest is out of order.

    The referance to brother is not out of order.  The used condoms could have been from  her brother staying over with a GF or could be that the so called brother is not related to her but is actually her Thai BF.

    Does it really matter what weapons you put in the F-35's if you only have two jets?

    Yes if your weapons systems are much better than your rivals but Thailand does not have the capability of putting Advanced Weapons systems into those fighters. Below example The Russian Su-57 is comparible to the Chinese J-20 Dragon

    The Russian/Chinese planes are bigger ,faster, and can climb higher  but the weapons systems are not considered equal to US F-35. Thailand cannot just install 50 cal machine guns on them or advanced missiles without a superior guidence system to target other aircraft.

    Priceless.

    Beautiful.

    Uplifting, too.

    Is this young woman his nurse?

     

    Both are wearing shorts, unfortunately.

     

    In Thailand, the wearing of shorts is not OK.

    "Both are wearing shorts, unfortunately.

    Who says?   I wear if I am at home or biking ,jogging or along Pattaya beach. Wear long pants if visiting immigration or Hi-so restaurant. Besides they are in their own home.

    Surprised that this doesn't happen more often.

    After all, what could possibly go wrong when you rent motorcyles out without checking for a license in a place where alcohol flows like water?

     

    Doesn't need to have alcohol involved just inexpiriance .  I was walking on 2nd Road ,Pattaya a few years ago saw guy just renting a bike.  Sat down on it and  then gave it full throtle throwing the bike (rear wheel) into the air. Too many tourists who have never riden a scooter renting them.

    Yes. 

     

    It is always better to have a woman by your side, compared to a Man Friday. 

     

    But then, you must consider the costs, as well. 

     

    If you were to inadvertently fall in love with a woman, on the Isle of Formosa, then your life might be redirected on paths which you might find objectionable. 

     

    This happened to me, several times, I embarrassingly admit. 

     

    I have had 36 women on the island of Taiwan. 

     

    If I had had 35, instead of 36, then I would not be posting comments here, today. 

     

    Each of these 36 shaped my life, indubitably. 

     

    Shortly before leaving Taiwan for Thailand, I vowed to be celibate. 

     

    I stopped consorting with women. 

     

    Also, dogs. 

     

    These days, I remain alone, and loving it. 

     

    The only intelligent creatures I interact with, these days, are Thai Myna birds, plus the beautiful cat we had here, before it died last year. 

     

    Still, life is good. 

    Not from your description , but could be better.

    You must not get much! Apart from other areas in Thailand, especially in Bangkok, many other countries have areas where girls can be obtained for a small or large fee. Even in some countries you wouldn't think of like Indonesia or Dubai, both Muslim countries. But certainly Mexico, Philippines, Germany, even Nigeria!

    Don't leave out Isreal. They only made prostitution illegal in 2020

    https://www.loc.gov/item/global-legal-monitor/2020-07-22/israel-law-prohibiting-consumption-of-prostitution-services-goes-into-effect/

     The Ministry of Social Affairs and Social Services estimates there to be 14,000 prostitutes in the country.[4]

    The main centre of prostitution in Israel is Tel Aviv. It has been estimated that 62% of the brothels and 48% of the massage parlors in the country are in Tel Aviv.[5] The traditional red-light district of the old bus station area was subjected to a number of raids and closures in 2017,[6] and the area is subject to gentrification.[6][7]

    The above is an EXCELLENT well balanced article and is about a lot more than Californians in Portugal.

    The "Fox" version is deliberately butchered to highlight maximize demonization of blue state California. Because that's how they roll. 

    As far as understandable resentment of California transplants I reckon it's much more severe in Boise Idaho than Lisbon. 

    I've been there myself experiencing hostility driving around with California plates for several months in a new red state residence. 

     

     

     

    Maybe this can be of use for some readers.
