  1. Private hires. Some newbs paying 3-5 times for a private Songtaew than BOLT -or- just flagging one and hopping on.
  2. So he's gonna play chess⁉️♟️
  3. As if resisting and getting arrested on further charges...while on overstay...is gonna help his situation any! Wankjob.
  4. 555 Wheaties in a can! Well that sucks. Also, from about 25 Sept - 4 Oct was the Thailand Veg Fest. 7-11 had more than just this one. Had 2 other frozen meals, Larb with Sticky Rice in the fridge along with Veg sausages and sandwich slices, gyoza and also a couple veg Mama Noodle cups. Oh and some vegan banana muffins and pineapple pies! Some good, cheap, convenient eating for about a week. Too bad it doesn't last longer, but my second freezer is stocked full. Microwaved one last night after closing a local bar down.
  5. Does no good. I actually got the name and number of the person with my file. Have called repeatedly...half dozen times minimum...and every time voice mail stating 'the person is unavailable to take your call. Leave a message ' Have left polite, detailed but assertive messages asking for a call back to my USA phone number. No call backs. 4 months and 1 day with ZERO progress. Still stuck on Step 2 and nobody knows anything. TOTALLY clueless.
  6. Dove/Pigeon of some persuasion. Flimsiest nest builders ever.
  7. Co-what⁉️ ????
  8. Wah wah wah....no fair. Typically Thailand. Whine & cry about the truth and constructive criticism instead of addressing the problem. Get yo ???? together and solve this forever problem. Been a problem long as I can remember...and I can remember LONG.
  9. If ya gonna go all Grand Theft Auto...ya GRAB Taxi⁉️⁉️ ????
  10. Vegetarian spicy stir-fried basil with brown rice. Found in the freezer section and available year-round at most 7-11s. I keep a couple in my freezer at all times.
  11. Amusing Thailand. Fake plates get 5 years. Murder a Thai girl, hack her up and pack her up and dump in river...get 8 years. Sounds about right.
  12. Thai driving license will suffice. Foreign license will not. That was my experience anyway with ThaiSmile. Other PP will be fine.
  13. Have called 800 772 1213 twice in the past month. First time, after listening to a couple mins of automated babble and finally stating my SS#, name and DOB to the voice response system I said "representative" and was connected to a person after a few mins on hold. The second time going through the same rigmarole followed by 35 mins on hold before someone answered. Just like you, have tried calling the 410 number with the same BS unsatisfactory and unacceptable result...'all agents are busy. please call back another time'...then disconnected. Typical government runaround and ????????. U-2 good luck. Imagine we will both be processed in their inept and excruciatingly slow time, but yes, extremely frustrating.
  14. So I initiated another call to the National SS Office in Baltimore. Talked to them for 25 mins, then was given the SS Workload number in Birmingham, Alabama and talked to them for 8 mins. Both offices saw my application claim, saw it was submitted online on 5 July...but neither could give me any further info other than it's still under review. Workload found the person directly assigned to my application and gave me her direct number. Called it and got thru immediately to her, or rather her voice mail, as she was "currently not available" to take my call. So left a detailed voicemail asking her to return my call. Not holding my breath, but did finish with...'if I don't hear back, I will continue to call every day and leave a msg until we talk or I am informed as to the status of my claim '. FYI...The lady at the National Office did allow that the online info stating "2-4 weeks" for processing most applications was total BS and the average time was 8 weeks.
  15. Prober is now being probed.
  16. Yes, have seen it and for items considerably more pricey. It's never been so much so that it put me off purchasing.
  17. Caution❗ Some of them are Wile E elephants. ????
  18. Great price...regardless all the other ramifications.
  19. No shortage of beauty in this country. Brains, uhh...not so much.
  20. 555 good point❗Disregarded that paltry detail. If only had $10k, I'd off myself before the 6 months ‼️ ????
  21. Shouldn't be a problem as she is Thai. Could renew it at Thai Embassy in DC beforehand.
  22. Start hitting ???? hard‼️ Go on a Galapagos Islands adventure. Do alot of "caving". Really change some people's lives with my money. Will prob still do most/all of these regardless.
  23. Used to be a great metal bar on Wireless Road...The Metal Zone. Think it's moved since Covid. There's a great band named "Hard Boy" and if you Google them or find them on Facebook, can see where they're playing. Also a really old band called Tornado who've been around since mid-90s. If ever in Pattaya/Jomtien be sure to hit Take Care Bar. The band (start every night at 8:30) is very good and can really nail most requests. From AC/DC, Black Sabbath and Disturbed to Linkin Park, Pink Floyd, Van Halen & ZZ Top. Did "Whole Lotta Rosie" recently and killed it❗Fab ???? player. Often wonder why he's in Jomtien⁉️
