US Tourist's Temple Graffiti Sparks Outrage in Chiang Mai
I hope they catch him before he leaves the country. I also wish Thailand had laws like Singapore and could/would put the cane to him. Caning is a very effect deterrent.

10 Great Steakhouses in Bangkok - you need to try
It's not in Bangkok, but it is in the Metropolitan area. Here in Lat Sawai, Pathum Thani we have the US Steak, hamburger&BBQ restaurant. It's got some great food. I still haven't tried the Hamburger... The steaks have been good.

Endoscopy and colonoscopy package - Bangkok recommendations, plz
I've never been there, but a couple of my friends highly recommend Bangkok Hospital. My last one was done at Bumrungrad, but it was expensive; although, the care was 1st class.

Thai Woman Arrested at Suvarnabhumi Over Money Laundering & Online Gambling Network Links
If she'd come in via a land border crossing like near Poi Pet, I'd have agreed to the "sneaking back", but Bangkok, that's like putting a chicken in front of an crocodile, don't ya think? Anyway, doesn't matter, she got caught, 'Bless her heart'.

Cheap International Phone Calls to the U.K. Using A.I.S.
Probably true. I used Viber to call Capital One earlier this month. I miss Skype. I think it was easier to use, but I'll get use to Viber. (Now if I could just get it to quit asking me after every call to invite my son or friends to the app).

Cheap International Phone Calls to the U.K. Using A.I.S.
Yes, use Viber, it'll be much, much cheaper. I am pretty sure I used '005' as a prefix, such as calling my cousin...005 001 area code and then the number.

Bomb Hoax Grounds AirAsia Plane in Phuket
That's not how they do it. If he had actually had intent to use a bomb, that 'trick' of suggesting a bomb in his bag could have been a diversion. The whole plane must be inspected.

French Report Warns of Islamist Infiltration Threatening National Unity
What did they expect would happen? Even the Muslims have said that they will change the countries from within. They flee the persecution of their former countries, but retain their strong beliefs in Islam, Mohammed and Allah. Little by little they seek to destroy Christianity and the Jews.

Your favourite bars in Nana, and why. (Positive only)
I wonder if Rainbow has the same mama-san that I knew from one of them(Rainbow clubs) back in the 01's-09's.

Repeated from my previous post.... Oops.

Angle Witch and G-Spot gone???? That's how long it's been since I've been down there. Hope those that go have fun and spend a lot of money. It will really help the economy.

How do you feel about Thailand being clearly far-right?
Yeah, this really is a dumb post. Maintaining a control on the foreigners, not providing free health care to all who can get across the border, not bowing down to the world economic forum and protecting the jobs for your people... That's what you call far right? Pretty sad, IMHO.

Do you still read books?
Yes, I still read books. Real, honest to all, paperback books. I try to wait until they're printing the smaller reprints, because I read at night in bed. The big paperback books are a bit heavy and cumbersome.

Quick-Thinking M6 Students Save Fellow Student with CPR
I agree. I just added 'aid' to you comment. It should be provided free every few of years to any people who wish to learn, especially to the farmers.

Farangs need to stop sending money to Thai girls while living abroad
This will never happen. Some girls have 4 or more, 6, 7, 8 even. It's a nice income and they just have to get sick if the bf's schedule a trip at the same time.

Do you shower before going in to swimmingpool?
I didn't answer your survey. It's too limited. I normally hit the outdoor shower first, but sometimes I forget. The reasons to shower before entering the pool are to wash off the oil and sweat that are detrimental to the pool's filtration system. If you put on sunscreen, it's best to shower again before you re-enter the pool. (and no the sunscreen does not protect you once you're in the pool. It washes off very easily).

Pocket Pistols
Pistols are a tool that I've not touched in more than 50 years. We had a 22 rifle for target practice, rabbets and skunks. A 30.06 was for deer and turkeys and the 12 gauge shotgun rounded out the rack, which was for quail & doves (and was kept handy with my Dad whenever the local police, Sherriff, juvenile delinquency officer or Country Judge suggested we should be vigilant). I'm a strong Second Amendment advocate, but have never seen the sense in me owning one. I might feel different if I had to go to the US and live there again. Good luck on your trip and stay safe.

Dr Warong Unveils VIP Hospital Suite Allegedly Used by Thaksin
Aw, come on, lordgrins, he is a man of simple means. After all he's a product of Sam Houston State University in Huntsville Texas where he received a PhD in criminal Justice in 1978. I'll bet he spent a lot of time studying the crooks at the prison there and could almost talk with a Texas drawl if he wanted. We're proud he chose Texas to learn the arts of justice. 😉👍(and that's a Gig 'em thumb emoji, not just a symbol of approval or as in the US air force it means $hit Hot). I'll bet his daughter has him wrapped around her finger.
