Ready, set, assume the position, ... which in case you don't know requires a lot of bending over and kissing. Me ... I think I'll chose to focus on the here and now. -
Be more concerned about the heavy, all encompassing, combustion engine pollution you breathe in BKK. Watch out for those dang wind farm turbines ... Donald Dump told us they cause cancer, and we all know what a learned, and deeply honest man he is so it must be true hahaha ????????????????

Do you fall in love with women?
Tropposurfer replied to Sparktrader's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
As a younger and then adult (bodily only) man I had no idea what love was. Lust and obsessional forms yes but love no. My family taught me what love wasn't not what it was, sacrificial, stoical, Calvanist hard working, numb yes, but engaged no. I spent decades in therapy and painfully, oh so painfully making the growing mistakes of how to love maturely many years past the natural points of doing so as one grows from childhood to adolescence to early and older manhood. I came from the 50's and from a white-centric patriarchal society that lowered women and drove men to feel little and to mock and attack any man who did feel and have any emotional intelligence. I got the shock of my life (amongst many on the journey to myself and a somewhat healthy manhood) when I read M.Scott Peck say; 'love was a decision, a daily decision, obsessing and loosing ones mind for another is not love'. He went on to describe the process of growing into love of a significant-other. It was the exact opposite of what I had always done. I listened to and eventually worked with John Bradshaw, Robert Bly and many wonderful soulful empowered grounded men and together we grew each other up. -

Is obsessing about how beautiful your golf clubs are qualify as love? lol ???? -

Is it just me? I've had a few Thai girlfriends and not one of them has ever behaved like this pre, during, or post. For the naive or uninitiated here the notion that people come randomly into our lives and their nutter behaviour is nothing to do with or reflect our internal world and how we project that into the world is complete BS.

As our forum Jedi's have told you ... It has to come from a foreign origin point into a Thai bank account. Carrying it in on your person does not meet the clear, non-negotiable criteria. Seems from the official site you must declare amounts in excess of the 20K USD. If you don't and they find it on you you'll be in a world of faeces. I hazard a guess you'd need solid proof (written, official documents - which I cannot see how you'd ever get this at sufficient levels to satisfy Thai Customs) as to why you've got so much on you. Just telling them 'Oh its to satisfy my retirement visa 800K criteria' won't fly. https://www.thaiembassy.sg/visa-matters-/-consular/bringing-currency-in-or-out-of-thailand

For many, Thailand’s UN vote on Russia still a puzzle
Tropposurfer replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
LOS has held this position for centuries in regard to such foreign events, nothing new in this stance. As to those who say; ' Good to not get involved in politics in this or that region of the globe, or its 'woke', or Putins a great white-man and we as white men should always side with 'our' (?) race etc.' I'm want to reflect upon the writing by a survivor of Sobibor (concentration and extermination camp WWII). He said; 'When they came for the communists nobody spoke up because they weren't communists, when they came for the socialists nobody spoke up because they weren't socialists, when they came for the homosexuals nobody spoke up because they weren't ... , when they came for the Jews nobody spoke up because they weren't ..., when they came for me there was no one left to speak up for me. -
Explosive hot action comes to Third road in Pattaya
Tropposurfer replied to Padthaigoong's topic in Pattaya
Electricity ... Danger Will Robinson !!!! I remember my dad (an electrical engineer) telling me a story when I was in high school to make sure I never went into the electric trades. A line repairman in a crew of fellas was attending a step-down or transformer fault. He forgot to take his metal watch off. Walked past the chain-wire barrier fence surrounding the installation one way and all was well, walked back again watch facing the transformer and the current reached out grabbed him and strained him through the chain-wire fence nothing left of him but the soles of his boots!!! -
Unless you apply a thermal tint layer adding a standard tint won't do anything to stop the heat in fact it will add to it due to its darker shading absorbing more of the UV etc rays. Putting on roof racks and a silver or white panel/plate across the racks thus shading over the sunroof will fix the problem but that plate will also still radiate some heat downwards.

Drunk foreign tourist sleeping on footpath helped by tourist police
Tropposurfer replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Woke on a weekday morning in my late teens in the annual flower bed next to the tennis courts on Belgrave Street, Manly once. Not my finest hour. Must have seemed to be a comfy soft place to take my rest the night before, similar to this fellas plan lol ???? Of course it was all the fault of my mates at the Steyne Hotel beer garden hahaha????????
