Ford was/is a puppet for the Demorat left. If the Senators degraded me and my family, I'd be a lot angrier than (soon to be) Justice Cavanaugh. I'd love to see every Senator and Congress person subject to the same scrutiny. SWAMP DWELLERS.

When I had a bar on Patpong, we had a customer come in and, of course, the 'ladies' encouraged him to "ring-the-bell" which he did, several times. When it came time to pay his bill, he didn't have near enough to pay the bill. He paid what he had but then said he didn't have money to get back to his ship. I gave 500 baht to get to Klong Toey. About 2 hours later  he returned and began ringing the bell. He explained that my giving him the money to get back to his ship made him feel good.

Obviously Immigration and Police wanted guys don't talk. In and out of Kingdom several times?

Never mind the low level folks, better clear new "no tips" policy with the big boys up top who take the biggest bite of all.

I don't like bribery but trust me, immigration officers do not get much in the way of pay and most can barely afford their uniforms. 1,000 baht (a little over $30 US dollars) is a small price to pay for the convenience of getting stamped through. Every time a low level official accepts a bribe, he/she is required to donate to the top brass.  Someone has to pay for those luxurious houses and brat's sports cars.

Based on the photo, it would have to be one big dog or dogs to reach the wires.

Thai male ego strikes again, only this time Daddy strikes back to protect his daughter. Would be more interesting to know girls age but the fact is that this man needed more definitive data to ensure his amorous intentions were really unwelcome.

I'm sure the victim was not Stephen Lord, he would have had tons of money stashed inside the mattress.

Only in Thailand would the politicians forward such a wane joke as "key misplaced". Hey, that's OK, I enjoy the humor but I doubt the Thai citizenry do.

Dark skin? Maybe farang blood from very dark negroid, no offense, they are still beautiful, but the mix could be of a dark race, accounting for darker skin pigment. Saw same in Vietnamese women.

Pretty easy to protect bullies and then knock around a 7 year old defending himself with a pencil. He should have had a gun and taken out the teacher then the bullies.

These stories do get old and repetitive. Thai man, new woman, gets dumped, wants old one back, she wisely tells him to ****off, bang, bang. Hard as hell to legally buy a gun in Thailand but the average druggie has no problem.

Never mind what the Japanese law enforcement will do, what will the Thai courts do.  He is committing a sickening crime in Thailand. Charge in Thai court, send to Thai prison, enjoy your stay in Thailand for the next 40 years (if you live that long).

Holy ghost in the confessional was meet me in the sachastry(sic) and I'll tell you a Ghost story.

Begging expats make me sick. How about serving your country for 20 plus years then working in delightful places like Sudan, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia for 17 years, then you wont have to beg for money. No character no gumption. No sympathy for those of us who worked.

Old fear of helping accident/unconscious victim and they die, they will haunt you forever. Reason zillion of Thais refuse to learn how to swim, go into the water yes, learn how to swim or help someone in distress no.

I'd rather see a 'go-fund-me' page for this poor gent than some irresponsible individual who comes to Thailand with no  health insurance.

I owned a bar on Patpong for two years and the ladies who worked during the day were waitresses or bartenders. The evening ladies were hostesses. Whether they went with a customer for the night was theirs and the customers choice. Never had complaints. If a patron was not satisfied he would not 'date' that lady again. Chances are if you date one, you are, more or less, "owned" by that girl. Had two American Peace Corp ladies asked of they could buy out my doorman. He agreed and the next day we had two happy Peace Corp ladies smilingly return.

Find this "woman", charge her with attempted "MURDER" cast her into the worst Thai Prison and throw away the key.

We only have four caged spayed cats. When let out they stay in the yard or go to our house next door. Don't fight and don't bite. One indoor cat who will bite when roughly teased. Mostly she will attach from behind, grab your legs and then run away  (no bites, she's hunting you).

So many no-nothings have so much to say about which they no-nothing.

Never mind firing the Guard for doing his duty. If Chinese man does not understand enough English/Thai to know the rules for entering Thailand, he should stay home. Promote the guard but send him to boxing school so that his follow-up punch landed properly. Man breaks out of HOLDING room and ignores Thai law, knock him down, kick him hard and put on next plane to China plus bar entry to Thailand for life. Thai officials greedy for Chinese money as recently they are the only tourists who want to come here.

My Thai wife never asked for or received language training from me. She does; however, occasionally ask for an explanation of English words that have double meaning depending on the sentence use.

Couple of points here: (1) Could have been a lot worse, they could teach JORDIE (2) They obviously arrested a FISH.

Great store Security, where is this store I could use some free 1,000 Baht hand cream.
