Thai police launch crackdown on prostitution
AgMech Cowboy replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Really??? -
You've answered your own question. Get the mask that you want, which is what you're buying now. Don't rely on Thailand to meet your criteria.

How do I explain Christmas to the misses.
AgMech Cowboy replied to sipi's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
You'll have to stop and read the 'panels' as they are shown, but this is it in a condensed form and maybe the easiest to explain. BTW, it's historical. The Jews recorded the events, but they interpreted things differently, which is why they do not use the New Testament part of the Bible. https://www.whychristmas.com/story/video_christmas_story.shtml -
I'm so happy to see the temperature drop to 20C. I have no problem with the Thai people being cold at this temperature, but if you're from Europe or N. America (excluding SS Texas and SS Florida.), this is not cold. I don't care how many years you've been here.

Thai waiters/waitresses spreading Covid19.....
AgMech Cowboy replied to SunsetT's topic in COVID-19 Coronavirus
OH Goodness... I think I'll just quit living. Safer that way. ???????????? -
How do you fancy a bit of fun?
AgMech Cowboy replied to OneMoreFarang's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
The golf course is where it's at man. I learned most of my Thai BSing with the caddies (and other things). But I love golf and wish my hips hadn't failed me. -
No, no, no... I haven't had to run my A/C for a week now and I'm still wearing T-Shirts and Sport Shorts around the house. I love this weather. Sadly, after calling Thailand home for 24 yrs and living in 'our' house for 16, I'm probably going to leave and go back to work. There is no work for me here, anymore... ????

I'm vaccinated so I don't worry about them who are not "following the rules". I wear my mask to make you feel better and to prevent the Thais from labeling 'nasty'. ????

Time Machine: Pick a Year in you Would Go Back To
AgMech Cowboy replied to 2009's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I'd go back to 2009... HaHa-55. I had a very good job, good money, traveled often enough and 'really' thought I could be there for 10-15 more years. ???? -
Time Machine: Pick a Year in you Would Go Back To
AgMech Cowboy replied to 2009's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
There were, of course, evil people then, but I think it's much worse now and, yes, the cheap cost of communication created a monster. -
First impressions after 20 month in exile
AgMech Cowboy replied to JustAnotherHun's topic in Pattaya
I would have hated being away from my son. I went through that with my daughter when I divorced in '87 and the ex-wife moved away. It's brutal. I hope you guys get to spend a lot of quality time together now. -
Thailand not invited to US democracy summit

You are talking about Hillary, right? Or... Stacy? -
Fuel tariff increase drives up electricity pricing

House purchase
AgMech Cowboy replied to Boyn's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
I'm glad we bought the house; although... We bought a house in a gated community in 2005. The guards are always there and they do keep the wandering vendors out, but deliveries, trash pick-up, yard men, tree trimers, requested junk pick-ups are no problem. We've two nice little parks that serve the community and they are well maintained. I am paying today, B1,800/month, which I'm pretty sure has never gone up (must have, but I don't remember so long ago). Our community suffered severely in the 2011 flood. More than 75% of the people cleaned up and move back in, some cleaned up and tried to sell (are trying to sell), others just moved out (3-5%). You won't have this concern, but this place was a great place to raise our son. He was almost 3 when we moved here, and he could roam the streets, go visit friends, run to the park, play at the playground, basket ball court or football field with no problems. In my personal opinion, you cannot go wrong in a secure gated community, but of course there are bad ones... Good Luck! -
New to Thailand, are you?

No kidding!! This is the first step for the mafia to really get their foot in the door as they run the motorcycle taxis.

Which Boozer is the Best in Bangkok?
AgMech Cowboy replied to FruitPudding's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Really!! I didn't even try more than one, but if that's the case I'll have to include Madrid with my selection of Buddy's Bar and Grill in the survey. -

The future is electric: your questions about EVs answered
AgMech Cowboy replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
EV cars are not the future. There are going to be severe problems getting good batteries, charging time will be a problem for long trips and disposal will be a big issue. I'll stick with the ICE and wait for the hydrogen vehicles. -
Makes no difference to me. I have researched a number of companies with Facebook pages only. It depends on what I need and the business involved. For instance, I buy freeze dried fruit from 2 different facebook page companies. One of them also has a webpage. I originally order product using their webpage. I got no response (oh dung). I contacted them on their facebook page and completed the transaction without any more problems. (I never got an explanation about the webpage).
