Thailand Considers Lifting Alcohol Ban to Boost Restaurant Business
Yeah but from 1991 (when I first arrived) thru 2010 and even later it was rarely, if ever enforced. The most asinine law ever concocted...and by a country that excels in asinine❗🤣

Up the Tics
Was pleased to see the Celtics "laundry" win another title. Couldn't name a single player nor watched a single game in years, but still happy for the that city and for the "laundry".

Supreme Court rules Trump is entitled to some immunity in Jan. 6 case
W-T-F has happened to the once great and once sane USA❓Guess Biden just has to stage a successful coup now, have all his political adversaries killed or incarcerated, crown himself king and never give up power. Could also then dismantle the insane unSupreme Court to achieve absolute power with no repercussions. Such an embarrassment, bad joke and laughing stock The USA has become. Sad.

Land of Smiles - really?
I renamed it Land of Snarls about 15 years back. It's only gotten worse since.

Why are Thai men so submissive
Obviously a newb here. Life is extremely cheap in Thailand. Ignorantly and arrogantly underestimating the hidden viciousness & violence behind that dull smile of the Thai male can be a fatal. They regularly kill parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters, friends, strangers, other relatives, spouses, gf's, bosses, coworkers and foreigners over the tiniest of little things. Sometimes for no reason at all. Be careful. Be wary. Be warned.

Roojai anyone claimed for Windscreen insurance?
I've called them 3 times and and always had a fluent English speaker. Very pleasant and professional.The video inspection was a different story...had to wait 45 mins after my scheduled time for an English speaker to call back, but after the delay, all went smoothly with a fluent English speaker.

How strict is Thai airways with carry on weight?
Not strict. Quite liberal in my experience...and have flown Thai and Thai Smile extensively.

Presidential debate is over, have your opinions changed ? What was your take ?
OK time to eat my words. When I'm wrong, no problem admitting it. Certainly doesn't happen very often❗😀 I said Biden would clean Trump's clock and I was dead wrong. That confessed...Trump wasn't any better. Lies, avoidance, no substance nor intelligence, full of brash BS, as always. It's a major embarrassment and failure to the USA that these 2 are all both parties can muster. 🤮

Julian Assange: Free-Speech Crusader or Threat to the West?

Are full body massages worth the money?
Yes...but you need to find a good masseuse. I really love Thai Traditional Massage, but can be too intense and painful for many. A good masseuse can sense and push you to your limit...then ease off without exceeding it. Many either don't have this ability...or are just trying to make you squeal in pain. Some seem to take pleasure in that. Never had a terrible Thai massage, but some are far superior to others. You know it's good when you leave feeling energized and invigorated.

Avoid AGODA
Love and use AGODA for 99% of hotel bookings, though recently found BOOKING had a cheaper rate on a resort near Kaeng Krachan NP. Never considered using them for flights, because as you apparently learned the hard way...too much fine print. Definitely prefer to book directly with the air carrier. That said, have used CheapOair a couple times without any problems.

How many days for a Thailand trip?
2 weeks minimum. It's low season now, which helps...but hardly ever seems it in BKK & Pattaya. GOOGLE some of the quiet "kohs" (islands). Chiang Mai is always excellent. Chiang Rai, Mae Hongson. Avoid Phuket...at least Patong Beach. Krabi is a possibility. Kanchanaburi also...depending on the topography you prefer.
