There is a product for dogs called "Happy Wormer"; is it somehow used as a recreational drug? Maybe it is actually called Happy Jack wormer. Jeez, people so crazy.

I am a new hire. They will begin taking care of all the visa issues beginning with the non B application. As far as expenses, I have to pay the 1st non B fee, they will pay work permit and subsequent visa fees.

I have a strong preference to call these benefits "retirement pensions". I don't like to think of myself as an "old age pensioner" even if everyone else calls me that.

Let me try again with songs from the soul and R&B genre: "If you don't know me by now", by Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes "Oh Girl" by the Chilites "Baby I need your lovin'" by The Four Tops

Sorry, got sidetracked when the guy said Aerosmith sucked, I am not a fan of the group, have never owned one of their albums. But they are a skilled band that can play, so I defended them. But you're right I got sidetracked. This is a fun discussion, thanks for starting it.

I'm ok. I'm not on overstay yet, so this will hopefully be an inexpensive lesson to learn. Blind luck, but I have a few days to go apply for extension.

So in other words you didn't listen to "My Big Ten Inch".

"My main point is being lost here. " No, it isn't. You are a professor of the obvious. Everyone knows that we are unrealistic about romantic love. "So what", is what you don't get.

Quote 'why do you even need "to rock"?' The point is, that song illustrates that whatever kind of music you might prefer, Aerosmith are a group of skilled musicians. Give a listen to the band on "Big Ten Inch", a lot of bands could not (cannot) play like that. You don't like Aerosmith, ok, but they can play.

Jack I apologize for my ignorant reply. I misunderstood. Thanks for setting me straight.

Aerosmith can/could rock. This song was not written by them either, originally they used it's original title "My Big Ten Inch", but they got PC I guess.

"Re your 90 day visa have no idea what that is. Where did you obtain it. A non O provides 90 day stamp. A tourist visa 60 days." There are more things in heaven and earth... Says "Valid from 23 Aug 2023 to 22 Nov 2023" "Type of Visa : Tourist" "No of Entry : Single" "Employment Prohibited" I got it at the Thai embassy in Vientiane. "Re your 90 day visa have no idea what that is." I told you, it's a tourist visa.

Actually I didn't extend both tourist visas. First one I extended by 30 days. Second one I was given a 90 day visa, I don't know why, rather than a 60 day. So you believe exit/reenter at Nong Khai gives better chance of being granted visa exempt entry? So in this way do I need a visa for Laos, and do I need to stay overnight? Thanks.

Reminds of the guy who said "Joe Schmo is a drunk; every time I go to the bar he is there".

edited into previous post.

I am in Bangkok. It was my second tourist visa, I extended the first one after 60 days. My second tourist visa was for 90 days, I went to Laos to get it. Thanks for the info. To get the visa exemption do I need to be out of the country overnight? Can I just fly out and immediately fly back? Also, does it matter if my tourist visa still has validity, or should I wait until it expires?

Can I re-enter Thailand as visa exempt when my tourist visa expires? I am in the process of applying for a non-B visa and work permit and the process may not be complete before my visa expires. Can I re-enter Thailand as visa exempt status after my tourist visa expires in order to complete these applications? I have time estimates from my employer for how long the process will take. If the optimistic times are met I am ok and will have my visa and work permit in time. But if anything goes longer I might not complete everything before the visa expires. If I do re-enter on visa exempt status will that have any bearing on my applications? I want to avoid leaving the country and applying for another tourist visa because of the expense, and because the visa exempt time frame should be enough to complete my applications.

Cuz of all the stuff I keep putting of until tomorrow.

"Wild Horses" by the Rolling Stones "I can almost hear you sigh" by the Rolling Stones One I really like, sort of a "lost love" song is by Elton John. "Come Down in Time"

"many expats here in Thailand are stupid" Where could you possibly find evidence to support this contention? Where oh where?

I like "Love Hurts" as done by a number of artists, funny I just learned it was written by Boudleaux Bryant. He wrote a lot of other great songs, many were hits for Phil and Don if you know who they were. "Bye, Bye Love," "Wake Up Little Susie." : "All I Have to Do Is Dream," "Take A Message to Mary," "Devoted to You." "Raining in My Heart," r “Rocky Top," "Take Me As I Am (Or Let Me Go)" "Bird Dog"

"You did not tell me which way to go!" I am surprised how often taxi drivers in Bangkok need directions from me. I got a taxi from Don Muang and the guy seemed confused about where I wanted to go. I asked him were he was from he said "Roi Et". The taxi license said Somchai so I asked "Is your name Somchai?" he said "no, this is my friend's taxi". So that explained that one I guess. He got me where I was going so no problem. Where I live is kinda off the beaten path so I have to give turn-by-turn directions. I guess at taxi meter rates I can't expect all of them to afford a phone with GPS.

"I dont think its so much resentment as nationalism, Thailand is perfect, the biggest and best country in the world, best food etc etc." I hear this fairly often (which, not being a pathetic pedant, I pronounce "offen"). Doesn't every country teach this to their youth? Seems like people who say this might mean "Thais say that Thailand is perfect, the biggest and best country in the world, best food etc etc" when really that is true of my home country.

So apparently you are corresponding with these English persons? I say this because I don't think these errors can be heard in speech, correct me if I am wrong. If it is email, very few people proof their emails and it's possible what you are really seeing is carelessness in typing, not poor knowledge of English.
