  1. If the guy is into hunting having a few stay bullets at the bottom of his bag would not be out of the ordinary. However coming to a foreign country and not checking that they had all been removed is not smart. I had a couple of 300 win mag I forgot in my bag. When I was in London ,my cousin that worked for BA security grabbed them and gave me a telling off. I was a little pissed off because they were 220 grain soft points I had loaded myself, hard to find in the store. That was a long time ago just when the laws were starting to stiffen , until then ammunition was not a problem in a checked bag.
  2. If it's anything like the drivers license medical they will have the paperwork for medical cannabis under the counter already signed . Just fill in your name pay the money and you are good to go.
  3. They always go for the low hanging fruit. That's the Thai way, that way they don't work themselves out of a job.
  4. Lots of time till the new year.Things can change when a strong cannabis lobby gets in gear.
  5. It reminds me of the story about the old lady that called the police and said "it's disgusting the people in the apartment across the street are having sex with the curtains open" When the cop showed up he said" I can't see anything". The old lady said "you have to go in the bathroom ,stand on the toilet seat grab the window sill and pull yourself up"
  6. Been here in Udon Thani three months haven't seen any cops. They are usually out harassing school kids for no helmets. The number of drivers turning right at traffic lights from the wrong lane and cutting in or going straight through from the left turning lane is starting to piss me off. I have even seen some old cars with no plates.The number of motor cycles with no tail light riding on a dark road is crazy people risking their life to save paying 10B for a light bulb. Time the cops got out and did their job.
  7. Drank lots of Lao Kaow with the locals no problem. It's usually accompanied by lots of food. It's fairly pure so you do not get much of a hangover. As for putting labels, most of what people consume can cause problems if you consume too much even water.
  8. If he treats the elephants the same way sooner or later one will turn on him, end of story.
  9. I was offered some Sor Kor Por land near Mae Hong Son, told I could get title in about five years. Family had a contact in the land office. I wouldn't touch it with a big stick but I enjoyed the trip to check it out.
  10. A couple of years ago my feet swelled up. I googled the causes and one of them was taking Amiodipine so I went from 10mg to 5mg per day and my feet went back down. My old lady takes 10mg and has no problems.
  11. You can buy online from that outfit that sells weed. Pay with my phone app delivered next day.
  12. Bank draft for sure, don't cost much and takes about five minutes. A no brainer.
  13. Arn't supporters of Israel extremists, after they have killed 25000 Arabs the government is still giving them money to buy guns and ammunition.
  14. They could give Lao Khow away free, tourists would not drink it. Just a few of us old timers and Thai villagers. I can handle it OK.
  15. Sounds like "reefer madness" descendants the next generation.
  16. I doubt if she forgave the debt , just some of the massive interest payments.
  17. A fellow I know had a couple of bars in Pattaya, told me they were B 3,000 a day to run before you could slip a few batts in your pocket. So if you make B 20 on a bottle of beer that means the first 150 beers don't make you any profit just cover expenses. Don't sound good to me.
  18. I was in Toulon years ago when the US navy came to town. There were a whole bunch of shady ladies showed up on the street corners . I guess they follow the fleet. There were three squads of police marching around ,they would come to attention outside of the bar and the NCO would come in and check it out and away they would go again. One was US navy, one was French navy and one was French police. I was drinking with the two guys that were in charge of lighting up the ships while they were in port. They seemed to be on their own schedule now body paid attention to them.
  19. Water falls are very dangerous at low water because all the surrounding rocks are super smooth and shiny.Very easy to slip and fall.
  20. Need to do the same as Castro did get rid of them all so there is no chance of their coming back.
  21. The Thai authorities love low hanging fruit. A user buys ten sells five, then the guy that buys five sells three the guy that buys three sells two. Why bother with small players while letting the big ones go free. I guess pinching all these small players boosts the statistics while not catching the big players means they will have work forever.
