  1. Tom yum and brownies. But be careful. It hits you all of a sudden. Don't plan on doing anything important. Have a lot of munchies available. Enjoy.
  2. This award is amazingly hilarious. Who paid for the story?
  3. I love Uncle Tony. PC has to go. Bring comedy back. Wow. The province of Porkabun in the news. Amazing Thailand. Once upon a time there was a very famous place behind the pig house in Muang Petchabun. A busy place for local and other provincial tourists.
  4. What can be unbidened by what has been. Soc Sec corruption.
  5. It is very difficult for a white straight male to get a job in schools in MN, USA
  6. Who needs a $3.5 smart phone? It can't cure stupidity.
  7. I think this is hilarious. It is good for business. I think business will boom.
  8. I have seen this also. Not just Thailand but on a bus in the US. My Thai wife yelled at her and informed the bus driver.
  9. I have done that in the 70's and enjoyed everyone of those towns. I did it to practice Thai language.
  10. Lands Of The Free. By Lew Ruffing. A PCV in rural Thailand in 1972. He worked in Amphur Chondan, Petchabun. Hmmm I wonder why I mention him.
  11. I took a sample of concrete when they were pouring road in front of my house in rural Isaan. Took it to Bangkok for analysis. One half cement missing, too much gravel and sand and water. Did not dare mention to anyone. Phuyai Baan is a friend of CPAC. Road crumbled within two months. But had a big opening ceremony with the Gov. and VIP's at the village temple not even close to the road.
  12. What ever happen to that guy that knew but would not say because it would hurt tourism?
  13. I never had a phone or laptop coming into Thailand. One female IO said I had to have a phone and even stapled a note in Thai saying "don't allow entry without phone. Got a free broken in VN and showed it on return. Male IO laughed and took the note out.
  14. Met Charles Sobhrai in Soi Ngam Duplee and did not find out about until 5 years later.
  15. Tour minister, Labor minister, when is Phiphat going to disappear?
  16. The student's parents were "influential" in the province.
  17. I have never seen a Thai teacher give an F to a Thai student caught cheating. I was told to not give an F to any student, no matter what reason. Some students did not attend my class all year. I let my Thai counterpart teacher give the grade. Guess the grade the student got?
  18. Corruption rating. Ukraine 104 out of 180 countries. Their military with the most corruption.
  19. Sadly it is true. No one dared to question Thai officials back then. If you did they put the word out that you were a communist.
