  1. Do they still actually have a "History Department"?
  2. With difficulty I would think if you have to ask!
  3. I suggest you stop jumping to conclusions! I have had real experience of that God awful place, both before and after it was rebuilt and during it's Promenada sojourn which is why I now use an agent. To me it is like either riding in a crowded smelly slow moving uncomfortable bus which I have to go and find and then walk to my final destination or sitting back in a smooth riding private hire limousine which picks me from my location and takes me directly to my destination! (which is actually what my agent's staff do!) A "no brainer" as far as I am concerned. The choice is yours! I prefer the comfortable option.
  4. Maybe not! But looking at who they have voted in during the last two elections it seems that some of the US public may indeed have a sense of humour!
  5. Where do you get 300baht per day from? It actually ranges from 328-354 depending on the province. https://wageindicator.org/salary/minimum-wage/thailand
  6. I suggest you re-read my first post! I have to attend for 5 Minutes every year to get the photo taken. I get escorted by my agent's staff thru a back door so don't actually have to mingle with the throng but can see the crush of people queuing all over the place as the agent's staff drives me past them all. No thanks to the idea of hanging around to appease some jumped up pipsqueak show off his power by demanding you jump over yet another undeclared hurdle! I can easily afford the 7500Baht and enjoy my leisure time as I see fit.
  7. Sorry but I think you have that wrong! Those with a full brain use an agent and enjoy all the hassle free time elsewhere!
  8. What flow at CM IO. It is not a flow just a stagnant cesspit of people wasting hours of their lives in endless queues being sent round in circles by dumb "Officials"!
  9. PM me if you want the contacts of a very reliable and totally legit agent that I have been using for many years in CM. I have never had a problem and the price I seem to remember has been constant the whole time I have used them! Never any "addons"! I spend 5 mins per year at IO and about 10 mins at the Agent's office. The Visa Company do everything (including 90day reports if required) for 7500Baht/year! They have all my paperwork on file and all I do is arrive with the bank letter & Pass Book (fixed Deposit) and sign their pre printed forms. The time I save (not money) I enjoy in my local bar! The money, even as a Scotsman, is well spent on piece of mind and lack of hassle!
  10. Who gave you that rubbish advice? Do you have any source that can explain it! more sticks of RAM for the same total - Search (bing.com)
  11. And I am just as sure there are others with opposite opinions! What specific point in relation to the OP are you trying to make?
  12. I thought that a large percentage of the Taxi Cab Drivers were self employed who just rent the cab from the holding company, same as Tuk Tuk and Samlor drivers!
  13. It makes Thailand look like it has lost it's marbles! The same as the people that use the disgusting and dangerous weed!
  14. RE; "since you, yourself, asked me the question" Without knowing what question or treatment you are referring to I have no knowledge or interest in any treatment you may or may not have had! Please don't waste your, or more importantly, my time, with trying to provide a coherent answer, as if you would ever be capable of such a simple task!
  15. Or being just repeatably objectionable with his/her asinine comments!
  16. You cannot have "fun with it" as it is just nonsense!
  17. Are you capable of actually responding to a post and staying on topic? By the responses you have made so far to me just on this thread then the answer is a resounding NO! You just type garbage and seem to expect people to accept it. I don't. I believe you are ether just a "click bait" troll employed by AN or just deluded and in need of treatment!
  18. What has any of the above verbiage got to with my response?
  19. As the OP I thought, wrongly obviously, that you would have known that the subject is actually about "Where would you retire..."
  20. A bit more info would help rather than a "throw away statement of "I got again this weekend"! e.g. What Strain With or without previous vaccines With or without face masks What sort of circumstances How many times, How severe Home or hospital treatment etc?
  21. What has Trump got to do with this? What a load of garbage from you, as usual!
  22. Random thoughts from last night's dreams; The voices in my head may not be real, but they have some good ideas!We have enough gun control. What we need is idiot control.Money can't buy happiness, but it sure makes misery easier to live with.Women may not hit harder, but they hit lower.I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure. A TV can insult your intelligence, but nothing rubs it in like a computer. A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night. A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk in my study/relax room, I have a work station... If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhea... does that mean that one enjoys it? The early bird might get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese. We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public. Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience. If I agreed with you we'd both be wrong.
  23. Kids A first grade teacher had twenty-five students in her class and she presented each child in her class the first half of a well known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb.
