its dead easy to spot a philipino accent. you don't need to be an expert linguist.

they curl their 'r's like americans, but the majority of pinoys can't pronounce 'f', replacing it with a 'p' instead. that's the accent in a nut shell.

no other south east asian nationality speaks english in the same way .

1st time I've agreed with the Dude.

Philipino accents are like no other..... easy to spot.

And no , I'm not an expert on accents, I don't need to be.

The drug is called GBH, odourless, clear and tasteless.

Keep yr finger in the bottle at all times and never let it out of your sight.

Bill.

there's a product called "Ant Chalk" from Thai supermarkets, you may want to try that.

It's in a clear blister pack, so you should identify it easily.

Dunno if "Ant Sand" is available in Thailand. It's packaged in a cardboard tube, similar to salt.

Good luck.

Thanks tg.

I'll bet they can't do the foxtrot or waltz......

would much appreciate an indication where is the cmu clinic recommended by maerim - or a telephone no.

Maerim vanished last April, not banned or suspended.

A call to the Uni should help, but you knew that, dincha?

Thanks guys, I know NK is reading this.

Jaymarts.com don't list a price for the 6230 any longer, so I presume it's redundant but still obtainable.

A visit to the hucksters at MBK would be worthwhile.

The 6233 looks like the bee's knees with Bluetooth, EDGE, GPRS, 3G, & a 2MP camera.

Hi Jeffery, longtime no see.

Still get those awful headaches?

Hi Gary,

just how fast is Bluetooth?

Have you run any tests to the California servers?

It's not something you want to rush into.

Take your time and try to buy privately, avoid the puppy farms.

Good luck.

Tried to find Coyote Dancers on YouTube........

Anyone got a video?

'Lambo,' 'Gangster' Thai'd to shoots

Pix expected to inject millions to local service providers

By KONG RITHDEEBANGKOK -- Sylvester Stallone starrer(?) "Lambo IV" and Denzel Washington's "American Gangster" will shoot in Thailand between November and January, the Thai Ministry of Tourism and Sports announced.

Washington will arrive Nov. 8 in Chiang Mai to shoot a scene in "American Gangster," directed by Ridley Scott and co-starring Russell Crowe . Pic is about a heroin smuggler who hides his goods in the coffins of American soldiers returning from Vietnam. Shooting will take place over six days, according to the local production service company.

Principal photography of "Rambo IV: In the Serpent's Eyes" will commence in January in Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. Stallone returns to play a Vietnam War veteran who's coaxed out of retirement in Thailand for a rescue mission in Burma. Shooting is expected to last at least two months.

Pre-production has already begun for both projects, an officer at the Thai Film Office said.

"Rambo IV" expects to spend around 200 million baht ($5.5 million) in Thailand. "American Gangster" is likely to inject $1.6 million to local service providers.

Please, don't anyone quote the whole <deleted> thread.....

How many deaths have there been in Hat Yai in the past 10 years from terrorism?

<deleted> has 10 years got to do with bombs killing and maiming in Hat Yai?

Just look back 6 months, that's what matters.

DO NOT come to Thailand without comprehensive medical & accident insurance.

You seem to have everything else sussed!

Good advice about the ladies.......

Good luck.

Always try to buy privately.

I hope you aren't taking it to Vietnam.
