No I am Not. ... As usual. ...

Yes, I was just wrong. I was thinking of another Place ... With a second floor dance Floor with the Glass Floor ??? ... Which one was it, ??? It was a small place I think ??? And I remember Tilak now met another ... More Challenged American service man (From the Afghanistan war) there, ... Yes I am not Really a writer, I do not make any thing up, all my stories are just recounts of what actually happened. But the Opinions,, ??? yes I do think of them my self though.

Well, my Father used to be the Head Master on all of the Primary Schools that I went to. !!! Like do any of you Know what it is Like ? and How it sets up the "Just play the white Mans Card" routine, in you head, ... after just being the "Schoolies Son" ... for every minuet of the day, ... 7 says a week and 52 weeks a Year !!! ... For 7 of your formative years !!! ... (And well after then, he had Influence in My High schools also !!! Like No big Deal, you got to just deal with what you get in life I think. Though just be kind though. ? .... And He WAS a very Moral man, and kind !!! and he really REALLY helped me, in other ways, and taught me other things, that I just might not have learnt from any one else I think ??? ... Though well, my intent on messing up the English Language ? ( Or well Improving it ??? - Right ??? ) ... might also be my Rebellion of always having to play the Schoolies Son's Card !!! ... Any way I live in Asia now, and play the White Mans Card in stead. ...

Yes Tubby ! … Oh ? Probably when my Great grand Children finish School ??? ... and well, we all know when that will be don't we !!! After I am Dead !!! Right ? ... ... ... … Though Wellll !!!! ???? .... Maybe I ought to put a bit of <deleted> together, a bit before that ? Right ??? ... Though well, I really do not know where I would put it ? …. Like just more Junk to clean out when they have to clean out my House after I die ??? ... Like my Grandfathers Slides of the Old Lenswood Colds store from back in the 50's !!! When no one else in Town had a camera !!! ... But Yes, ... Thanks Greatly Mate, … for this Hint !!! ... YES maybe I should have a go at it ? … Like I have enough stories to write about ten books !!! … Though well as with here !!! ... I do not know how they would be received. I have a Link to an interview with Behrouz Boochani, The Iranian Write who spent over 6 years in the Manus Island, one of Australia's Offshore Detention center, for all boat arrivals since ? Well when they DID actually stop them coming !!! ??? Like it or not. .... Like a pretty smart Writer that guy ? ... And 6 Years in Manus Island, and two Boat escaped from Indonesia to write about !!! ... One where he nearly drowned, ... Well Yes, HE does have some subject matter there I think !!! .... And he is Obviously smart enough to do it also ... AND ! Had the time. He wrote a lot of his first book by sending text messages from the Boat, … and then continued it on Manus Island while in detention !!! .... He told the Australian Immigration Security that he was “An Iranian Journalist” when he arrived and they all just Laughed at him !!! … God Bless our Great Bogan based ??? Police system in Our own Country. So I might put a link to it, on, and under, Roosters Column Next week. (Yes I really loved it when he said that the Australian Peoples consideration before the last Election, … which he lost convincingly, !!! ... of how much of a Liar, Mr. Happy Clapper (A so called Evangelistic Christian) Morrison was !!! ... ... When he said that all of the refugees detained on Manus Island, … all Knew how much of a, Liar he really was for 10 ? or 15 Years ? before that !!! ??? … Har Har ???) Well, <Deleted> it ! (As Police Captain Monkey (Ling) in my Local, Immigration center actually seems to like humorously saying about the regulations on ocasion) ... I will put it here now any way. https://www.unisa.edu.au/connect/hawke-centre/events-and-exhibitions/events/2023/freedom-only-freedom/ And fast forward to the info on Interviewer (A Former Journalist that was Detained by the new Regime in Egypt previously) at the 17.46 minuet mark, and then the interview itself of Behrouz Boochani, Iranian writer, and 6 Year detainee on Manus island. Yes I am going to wind up my writing here well write an end to it now, and just say Thanks mates, Mark. – Yes the original subject of the Pretty major Theft, and Cheating in Cowboy HAS been solved here I think, and Thanks for Mr. Buick for putting me on to the track of it !!! … and then Mr. Chatmonman for telling it as well ? … Now ! …. And those two posts answered the Whole thing for me at least. ? So Thanks Mates !! Mark mark

Or Loretta's ? Another one of Cowboys Daughters I think ??? ... ... Some very interesting stuff if you Google this guy also ! ... Like we all are only Stiffs in the Box in the end ! ? ... but well, for better or Worse, ... some battlers Like Cowboy, ARE the Real winners i think, for better or worse !!! ... Like he got the street names after him you didn't he !!! .... Like a Black, American Service Man, ex Vietnam vet !!! So well ... as with other Black men that taught me a lesson or two, ... when I slowed down enough to Hear them !!! ... ... And some Muslims as well !!! ..... Cowboy is the One that Made it !!! ... "The Arab" (Actually an American Iranian so it seems) ... is Just capitalizing on Cowboys success ? .... I think ??? ... (And just F'ng it up ? so it seems ??? ) ???

Yes, I have ended up Using the Nana on Soi 4, (For better or worse ? So they say ... But well it seems like the BETTER for me !) ... as a Holiday Place now, as it has a nice swimming pool for the Kids, and the Old fellows in it, ARE actually pretty good with them also, ... Like Free meting "White, usually fat, Old Folang Farts" Training for them .... Hard to find in some places around the world right ??? ... And I like attacking the Bacon Bay Marie at Breakfast time. ... Yes, Soi 4 is OK I think. And well I was in Soi 22 but have moved to Nana also now, …. though well I have Heard of some people that do not like the Trannies in the Nana's Parking lot to much ? ... ??? … Yes been to Tilak and well Yes !!! it was very OK, and I liked the see through dance Floor above your Head !!! Very Innovative ! … Like the Thai's ARE a very Innovative People you know. Yes I looked on Thai360 as advised by the poster above who HAD pretty well got it right I think ??? … To Google "The Arab" ... ostensibly the one Responsible for the Americanization and Glitz ? … “Bling” in UK slang ! I guess ? ... of Cowboy. ... (And some over charging, to get their investments back ??? maybe ???) ... But well it ended up as a discussion on Real-estate Prices in Bangkok !!! ... But well the Intelligent answer I think is Like you say !!! ... Everything Changes !!! ... And a Piece of Land, Owned by Local Chinese family, who will not sell it, right, … Right by the MRT stations, … in the center of town !!! WILL always go Up I think .... And lead to Higher Lease Prices, ... Will always lead to Larger Bars, ... and more Bling I guess. … So well possibly it is a good idea to get MORE trannies in to Soi 4 ! … To terrorize the Inexperienced or Prissy Punters ! … And STOP the place becoming Sanitized (Like Cowboy ?) … with a bit of Stealing from the Innocent thrown in Now, … by the seams of it ???) Thanks Mate and keep an Eye out for me on the Nana end of Sukhumvit ! I will be the Worn out looking fellow, with a 6 Year old Leading the charge, … in his Superman Costume ! .... Like waking dean Sukhumvit, … with a 6 Year old Superman ! … And actually not to bad I thought, ! last time I had to do it ! ... No one else has a 6 Year old who thinks that he IS Superman ! Right ? … … Like never say Die ! right Mark mark.

So looking on Google maps ? That bar Midnight, used to be Milano ? didn't it ? ... or was that turned in to Tilak Bar ? ...

Well the Nana Hotel ? … I like the Place, Nana, Old world Charm. (Though I am not that keen on the street, the bars there, OR the Plaza !!! – But my Thai friend could not believe that I stayed there, calling it a "Post Vietnam R and R" Place, ... But I still like it, … as well, it IS, a Post Vietnam R and R place !!! … Though the Old men that are dying, all around the Place, this is a bit of an Eye sore, like Wow !!! … Have you seen their Great Breakfast crowd ! Like the average age Must be about 75 I think ??? … But hey ! The Brave New world ! … So what are we going to do with all of our Old men ? right ? … ??? Like I will probably end up there if I lose my Wife ! ... Better then Dyeing under Neath the Railway station back in Adelaide Australia right ??? Though well all the dyeing crowd there !!! Possibly just a bit less bad to look at than the lady Boys out on the car park I suppose ??? ...Right ??? I take my Young Boy (6 years old) there for a swim or two, and to Cheer the staff and some of the old fellows up also, ... Just to be able to see some Real Children again ! ? … and it works. ! Yes my Old Thai friend used to live on Sukhumvit and in Ekamai. And I know Bangkok well, and have lived in many Places there … Gotham City !!! … You know Batman’s City !!! Like with the Sky Train running Down the main Boulovards !!! … and well I do still think that it STILL Is that. ..And I still love it. I drive my Car on GPS around there now, and Like Varrrrr ! 67, and I still have not given up yet !!! Yes the Nana, like they CAN be a bit Snootie, like when I was a back packer they did actually kick me out I think ??? …. They used to have a Disco there you know. … But well I am an Aging Family man now, and they love me Now. The only hotel that I know that gives the Woman that you picked up with last night, a Free Breakfast, if they are still there !!! Right !!! … Like HOW liberal is That Fellows ??? … Like, Know any other Places in the world that do that !!! ???

Wow !!! Thanks !!! ... Jackpot !!! … Someone who Really seems to Know what is going on ! … and well also is even handed also. Yes, I think that it is true, I think that it DID happen to this Quite Nice American Guy, who I met in the Nana Hotel Pool. … Though I am aware of the False Information on Line wars, ... Like when those two pensioners from the UK, who WERE stealing from Airports and Shops on all of their Holidays ! and Putting the trophies back in to their home bar, back home in the UK, So I heard ? When they were Caught and on CCTV at the airport here in Thailand !!! … You should have seen all of the negative Lies and <deleted> being posted, which I was sure must have been Coming from the competing Duty Free shops, in Different other Cities !!! (E.g. Singapore ?) ??? “Don’t do your Duty Free shopping in Bangkok” !!! … Like what a Lot of Commercial marketing <deleted> that was !!! … And Lies !!! … Like they were Caught red handed by CCTV, and had all their other stolen, “Holiday Trophies” back in their home bar, back home the UK, I heard ??? So ? Here this Guy could have been sent by the Pilipino Bar Owners to discredit Bangkok ??? ??? … BUT No I think not. NO, ... He did not post it, he just told me in the Nana Hotel Swimming pool. I always wear my Rose Colored Glasses, well unless I am badly Hung over !!! … and left them in the Bar right !!! ... But this Guy seemed very genuine to me ... an Ex service man, who went to Iraqi. ... And One who votes for neither side in US Politics !!! and says “God Dam, … an Australian that Likes Joe Biden” !!! and said it a Number of Times !!! … which did Greatly amuse me !!! … Thanks Buick !!! Thanks Greatly. .. Job Done, ... Got the Answer. And Thanks Greatly !!!

Yes Hillarie's was Just Great !!! ... I zoned out, and Tuned in !!! and lost it so badly there once I tipped the Lead Guitar player 1,000 Bart !!!

Thanks !!! ...

I was there 30 Years ago. ! ... Not in the Pool, but around the Place, ... Where were you ? with all due respect ? ... and just out of Interest ? ...

Yes it was a Very Good shot from at least 3 meters !!! ... It hit him in his Left Cheak ! bounced off, and nearly knocked his Beer off of the Table !!! ... Like half a banana I should say, ... Like a well modified and lighter Projectile for her, to shoot out of her Vagina right ??? ... Like VERY Cleaver !!!

Yes, ... Working on it. ... Thanks.

Memories of Sio Cowboy. … (In the 80’s) … Well, Lucky I did not write about an Earthquake that Killed 45,000 people ? or a war or something like that here ! ... Or I might have got some more negative comments back ! .... Still, run with the Foxes ! … and you cannot complain when the Hounds start closing in on you I guess. ??? ... So I should write a piece of my Memories of Cowboy back in the Early and Late 80's ! ... And ask you older Fellows of what the Bars that I used to go to back then, are called today ? Yes it all used to be Single Fronts back then ? … Like single rows in front of a single stage of Dancing Girls and well some woman from the East, who DID Really have just a Great sense of Humor ! as well as Not minding "Doing it" even one little bit !!! (And I am pretty sure that NO ONE got ripped off to much back then also !!! And I did not either !!! ... But the advent of the Whole street being Double or triple fronts now ? Well I DO feel like this Money and Commercialism creeping in ? Well storming in Right !!! and I do not like it myself I must say. Yes I MUST be getting two old now. I will just list some names Starting from the Eastern, Soi 23 End of the street ... Like I did myself over a number of Years. So, a Trip down memory Lane !!! ??? … Good Old Soi Cowboy. (The best Red Light street that I have ever Known !!!) Right ? "Top Cat's" ... (North side neat soi 23 ?) ... (My first) Gone many Many years ago now Like about the first to go I think ??? The place that I learnt “Gone Susi” in when they tell you that a Girl that you are interested in has gone out with another man, … when well with a friend, sometimes she might just be hiding up stairs as she does not like him, or thinks that he is a Cheap Charlie !!! Over the Road (South side) "Our Place" Good management and Good Girls, I knew a LOT who worked there ... and it was always Friendly ! A bit further down back on the North side, The Hash House Harriers Place "The Hair and Hound" ? I think. … I and a bunch of technical crew from a Seismic ship once put some large graffiti in their Toilets, as we thought that it was the Traditional thing to do there, "Trink the Trink, Nuf Said" … But the Mamasan had Just had then re painted !!! … So well not a very good outcome on that night. ... Over the Road was a Sort of Snootie ? Countryish place run by a nice Couple, like pretty German I think that place, ... I think that I went there recently and it has changed names and had the Only farm Fresh sweet and Humorous Essan girls that I could see in the whole street !!! Over the Road (North side again) Bams Bar ... (Pams Bar I guess) which was run by one of Cowboys Daughters at the time ? … Pam I guess ? Next to it Milano’s ? one of the original first Double fronted Bars there ... Run by Cowboys ex Wife, and one of my Friends at that time, rolled her down the Isle like a bowling ball once !!! When she was standing in the door way, stopping him getting out !!! … With the Obvious Pretty negative out come !!! I took a girl from there once and she was arrested in the Blue Fox opposite the Malaysia for Prostitution once, the cops kicked me out of the Songtaw as I wanted to go with her, … So the next day, I went with Cowboys Ex-wife from Milano, in a Taxi to the Police station to get her out !!! … And she chastised me for not getting her out the night before when there were not so many Top brass there to be Paid off !!! ... … Yes it was the 80's !!! Back in Cowboy, and over the road again in the middle on the South side, Cowboys the original !!! … Though I think that Cowboy had Moved to Soi 33 by then ? (Where one of my First Woman took me to meet him, oh early 80’s … and well later ? or before to Washington Square. … I never went in to Cowboys ! It looked just TOOO .. Institutionalized to me, like I was young then, AND a back Packer also ... I went to Ding Dongs, Jonathan’s bar ? and Our Place Mostly. So over the Road (North Side again) Jonathans ? I met him in a Pub in Earls Caught once, the Kings Head where they made part of the Barry Mackenzie Movies, … a lot later on, … but had forgotten who he was Like he WAS a pretty good guy Jonathan though well I and my Missus had a disagreement with another Boss Girl in there which did NOT turnout well !!! Like she threw a large plate of Coleslaw at me, … missed and it hit Jonathans Mirrors .. Badly !!! … So well, … He remembered me !!! Lost half of his customers that night so he says … And well Not to many stories out of School, but when the Local Thai boys started taking their Buddha’s, and jewelry off … I DID quiten down and Just go Home !!! With my Wife fowling me about 15 meters behind !!! … Like she is still here nearly 40 Years later so well though probably not a usual mirage ceremony, well it worked !!! right … ... And another one in Dingdongs bar a bit later on I think ??? with the terrible “Tim” and her Offensively Used Torch !!! right ??? – Hit my Wife over the head with it … for me setting up other men to not have to pay the bar fine !!! ... And well then she REALLY was Min, as she gave the whole lot of them the Finger … Well she took a swing at her and Missed … Thai Weddings always as a But Rough I think ? 2 families Involved and often a lot of Un finished Business right ???) … Yes, Then Ding Dongs next to it !!! ... Where I knew the most girls from Initially, and I had a deal with them ... I bought the mixer, like red Cordial, and they bought the Half Bottle of Whiskey, and we hid it under the bar and I got <deleted> for almost free or we drank it sitting in the Open Bongo taxi outside. Like it was a street for Cars back then. ... And God, what were those Little Bongo vans Called ? … “Supperoos” I think. … Just what you needed for a party or when you have to get all of your stuff out of your House, as the Accidentally On Purpose, Slum Clearance Fire is coming, and the huge chunks of Charcoal start falling out of the sky, and on to your roof !!! Yes Ding Dongs WAS My bar, well until the owner Sent me Yes the usual "Or Else" message and my Wife hit me in the Stomach with her bag as she left !!! … As I was translating for the tourists and arranging for them to meet their girls down at the end of the street, by the Tuk Tuks so that they did not have to pay the Bar fine ... Yes it was back in the 80's ... Later on their was "Longgun" over the road and on the South side again almost up at soi 21 - Asok. Which had the first Shops in the street as far as I could tell, I think that ding Dongs had some pretty tame stuff though. Like the girls I knew there, would give me a secret touch when coming off of the stage, or going out the door with another man !!! … Yes most definitely the best Time of my Life. And well that was my World for Oh ? … Well several Years I should say ... Well when I started working OFF Shore on Ships, my world DID expand Considerably I must say though. Still, back then, we lived in was it 269 Soi Dontong Larn, ... soi 22 down the end past the School ... with a bunch of girls that worked in Cowboy ... in the Woman’s House. ... The Taxi drivers, Men, lived in the house next door. ? And Tex ? ... No Tarzan, ... The Guy who used to do a show in Hong Kong, back then where he used to Hold two light bodied Woman up in the air, … one on each hand !!! ... Most of the Girls we knew went and Lived with their eventual catches in Sweden or Switzerland, Dum never did, she had Children, but was Very Much looking like the Alcohol was just about Killing her, last time we met her, ... and well some of them that went to Europe are Dead now. I am 67 and I lived there when I was about 30, … and well they all were about that also, ... Back then. Yes, most Definitely, The best time if my Life !!! Mark mark

Well Yes. ... But our incident was in a Ground Floor place. And it was simply over being charged for Company's, even though I had my Wife there for that. But well the Receptionist ? That was leading the Extortionist, ... got Pushed away ??? ...Well I do not know if she fell over or not ? I can nit remember ... but that was the problem that caused the Police threats. We did not go back there needless to say I think I must only have gone there to that area about 3 tomes in my life. ??? Taking Visitors to see the Shows. And the one where the Girl Cranked her Ass around ! And shot the old guy at the front table in the Face with a Banana !!! ... Well yes vert well worth it I thought

He Told it as happening like a Clip Joint, ... like I have experienced this, and with my Wife there in a Pat Pong Clip joint many Years ago. ... (They threatened to call the cops, and my Wife had to sort it out.) This story here, from the Nice American Guy just mentioned sitting with 2 Girls for ? ... Oh say 2 Hours Like a Long Time, and did not mention Any Investigations in to Ladies Drinks ? He Implied it was a Charge for the Company. ... Yes thanks, ... as this was not My story, it Was His. ... Like I NEVER just pay for Company. Probably like you do not also. ... I was just asking what other People thought of this story. ? ... And well yes more comments about my Just total <deleted> Grammar, than actually about the story ! Though some VERY good answers. ... and well I just think that it does need to be sorted out ??? ... Well it is WAS true ... Like I thought that it WAS. ... Like the fellow that mentioned that he was probably Drunk, was Probably the most Right on reply right ? and thanks for that Mate.

That Happened Oh 4 Years ago now, Pre CV 19 and my Big American Friend Did Move !!! and the Bill WAS about double, but no worries I like Cowboy .. Well I have liked it for Years now. So lets hope that I AM wrong. ... And Thanks for that.

Well you know what should happen here, and with all Due respect, … The Bar owners in Cowboy should get together, and using Insider Information from You Good fellows ? … Find out which bar ? or Bars ? are doing this ! … and then send them a message ... To STOP it ! or else. … Like with the Potential of them being driven out of the street ? Indicated ? ... as this large scale Theft, and Cheating, WILL damage ALL of their Images I think ? ... in the end ??? … Like I took a Vietnamese, Vietnamese Bus from Saigon (Ho Chee Min City now) up to Hanoi once, and well had a Vietnamese Refugee family on board, now settled in Western Canada, but just back for a Holiday. Like very Nice People actually, and the Son told me about their Boat Escape from there, in the monsoon Season and High Seas ! ... Which WAS just such a Really Great feat of Intelligence, Tenacity, and never really giving up ! … and cooperation and Skills also. … But well another good story for another Day I think, .. But they made it to Malaysia, … and then their re settlement in Canada ! … And he said that their Whole community was just so SO grateful for the Canadians saving them from the refugee camp ! That they they all worked together and Supported the Canadians, un flinchingly, for saving them !!! … But then when the Vietnamese Government started the "Orderly Departure Scheme" ? (Only a scheme, for the rich to buy their way out I think ???) ??? … Then the street boys who were coming over to Canada, Like RICH and well Pampered “Rich Boys” started to act up, and commit Crimes, as they had never had to look after themselves in Vietnam, with their rich families, ... like they now did have to in the west. Like taxes Morgaes Loans for a Car ! Etc. ... … So well the Original hard working, and mostly Boat People community, had a meeting he said !!! And they sent a message to the "Orderly Departure" Newly arrived, small time Punk Gangsters, ... That, They, had better clean up their act !!! … or they could go back to Vietnam and F' around over there Like, ... Or Else !!! ... ... And This boy told me, that it was a successful message, as the new Street Boys then DID calm down ! And started cooperating with their community AND the Canadians ! ...so he said ??? Like there was a 22 or less ? year old Girl there, and the Bus was crowded, … so well Good luck for me, as she happily sat on my Lap for a lot of the way ! (Like I was Young back then, … and well also, … Always go on the busses with all Vietnamese on them, and NOT babbling Sevatical students there. Right ???) ... … And the next afternoon we stopped in a nowhere ? One Horse Village on the Highway !!! … and she got out !!! …. and met her Mother Face to Face !!! … for the first Time in 12 Years !!! ... Like Well Like Varrrrrr ... I thought !!! … This had to be the best Buss ride that I have ever Had ! I thought. ... Like Gee we Humans have just done some Really Criminal things to each other !!! Haven't we !!! ... And well I never thought that it would happen in Good Old Soi Cowboy !!! Right ??? ... But well it seems like the Brave New (Corrupt ?) World, … has got there now also. ... ??? Possibly ? ... Yes, Like a bit of Local Peer Group pressure, might be good to be exerted here I think ??? Yes ??? … And I have better sign off now, ... or I will mess my Own Thread up. … And Thanks Fellows. Mark mark

No Mate ! Just a quite Recalcitrant Australian, who got a U for English in Matriculation, Like Unacceptable !!! .... with a comment of "We just threw your paper in to the rubbish bin" attached ...But I got an A+ for Geography, ... so I was able to go on to Uni and eventually !!! ... Graduate as a Surveyor, for free ... and well devote the rest of my Life ! ? To getting those Bastards that threw my English Paper in the bin, Back !!! .... Right ?

He did not seem like a drunk (And I should Know as I AM one) ... Like he was sober at 11 am at least ???

No, Just a Good Old Middle aged American Ex-military guy ... he said ... And a very Nice Fellow !!! ... He just kept on Saying "God Dam, ... an Australian who Like Joe Biden" ! ... and then repeating it at the next break in the conversation. ... And who does not vote for either side of Politics over there ... And yes I did like him quite a bit. ... Though well, he did not get to may points for common sense in Cowboy that Night so it seems !!!

Thanks Fellas, though no answers, of the validity of his claim ? ... or any Recollection of which Bar it may have been ? ... Posted in Code of course !!! ... And it is Over and Out, from me, Mark mark. ... and Thanks AN.

Well possibly Yes, given this countries Libel laws ? But what if it WAS true, happens just too man times ? and they DO have to start doing something about it !!! ???

An American that I met, who told me he had been Robed of 10,000 and then cheated out of another 6,000 in Cowboy. ?
