    Tragic enough set of circumstances, without them having to show the video of the poor guys final seconds. I'm sure his family will not be impressed knowing his untimely death is being viewed for macabre pleasure. One day maybe the Press here will start to develop a little bit of decency and respect for the dead.

    RIP.

    no chance of this in Thailand....they like gore, blood, and bits of flesh

    I bring back items from the US that are overpriced in Thailand. Gillette gel shaving cream (2 cans for $2.79 at WalMart, $10 a can at Big C),  Gillette Fusion razor blades (buy 12 for the price of 4 in Thailand), peanut butter ($2.50 a jar $6.00 here), protein bars and packets of energy drink mix are just a few.  All my clothes are from the states. Size L is XXL in Thailand. Levi jeans are 2X the price. Sports shoes such as Nikes, Reebok etc are overpriced here. Anything that is imported into Thailand will be expensive compared to your home country.  

    are they ORIGINAL levis?? why bring jeans it is HOT here NO NEED FOR THEM

    The vast majority of ATMs are not at banks. They are in malls or all over the streets. I love that here. In the UK you have to search for one even in cities like London. In Bangkok you just look left or right and you'll find one soon enough.

    There is an atm outside NEARLY ALL 7 elevens
