Don't want the locals getting near that stinky spot where we buried Igor the other day.

Lemme see here....Drat! I ran out of fingers and toes!

Maybe his real name was Mengele? Maybe he didn't like his real name? Florain Storz

Yes, instead of starting off clean, with no points. you start off rich. The cops feel better when they can take AWAY from you. Heaven FORBID they ever give you anything. Be thankful we gave you 12 points, Peasant! You end up with nothing. That's how the RTP like it.

Yes, my thoughts exactly. Probably got 50 million people on the roads everyday (That's just Sukhumvit between Nana Plaza and Soi Cowboy... I jest). I'd wager 5% to 10% got their license out of a CrackerJack box = they don't have one or paid off the driving test folks to get one and couldn't drive a ten penny nail into a piece of cornbread.

You forgot weddings and funerals.

In other news, feces is not a cure for acne.

AHA! It was Somjai! Not to be confused with Somchai.

Good idea. Then the cops could sell them.

He's in a certian lane now. Methinks it is going down hill.

Love it! They say THINK at the end though. It'll never work.

I recall going to Vidalia, Georgia to help out my 86 year old Aunt. She couldn't drive. Kept telling me I was "LOOKING THE WRONG WAY!" at a stop sign in the middle of nowhere. Aunt Mary, I am looking UP, DOWN, RIGHT, LEFT, and then I'll do it all again before I hit the gas pedal. I used to drive in Bangkok. Richard Petty & Dale Earhardt ain;t got <deleted> on me.

Totally agree it has to start somewhere my Friend. I was in Pattaya when those were installed. They were ignored. WAAAY back before DR. FAUCI (I AM SCIENCE) tossed the world into a tailspin, there were 75-80 Chinese tourists walking out in front of traffic all at once. They didn't care, nor ever will aboout cars and trucks, so the cars and trucks don't care about them. Pattaya is just overcrowded...FUN, FUN, FUN place for a 3 or 4 week vacation for sure, be you Chinese, Russian, Yank, Limey or whatever, but I tend to look left, right, up, down, behind me, then repeat that process before I ever attempt to cross a street in Thailand. If one depends on others to obey laws...Good luck.

Dude, the tea money has to come from somwhere??? Heaven forbid they actualyl have to earn it! I'm ALWAYS sober when I drive. I often wonder if it better to get a buzz and then I'd fit right in though. ----- About the 757th (or so time I got pulled over in Thailand, near Korat, the cop saw my International Driver's license, and said, you're good. yo can just go. I' alway drive sober, keep 200 baht inside my IDL. The cop said "Khap koon khap" and we were off. My wife said "WOW! He was a nice policeman! He didn't even take the money!"

Never been to Ko Tao, only Phang An (near by). 2005. Just didn't get the chance. I was 37 and into FULL MOON parties NEVER appealed to me. Anyhow, I had a cool bungalow up on a hillside and could see Samui quite clearly in the distance. I also could see what looked like UFO's that defied all logic, screaming back and forth. They were boat, moving just slightly less than the speed of light. There was a huge article pretty much everywhere (https://scandasia.com/1316-koh-samui-drowning-accident/) From what I gathered, the boat was rated for 2 engines, yet had 3 engines. The steering cable broke at speed. The "S" in Thailand stands for safety. The "M" is for maintainence.

They've had traffic lights at crosswalks in Pattaya for over a decade. They broke after about 2 weeks. The cops must've stole the light bulbs? I was in Pathum Thani once, walking, and the BIB were out in force. Anybody whose tire was touching the white line at a traffic light got a ticket. Selective enforcement never works. The BIB in Pathum Thani were just running low on Mekong money.

This reminds me of a tire commercial from the 1980's. Tires Ain't Pretty!

That's the first thing I thought too.

They watched too many American movies. Didm't realize that guns run out of bullets.

In Florida now. Have been the past couple years. I have a daughter. She is a girly girl. I have a son he os a macho man. Governor Desantis is a "wapaho" Indian. He's a gangster WOP. If you want your boy to think it's OK to be a girl, or your pretty baby girl to think she should be all BUTCH....That's fine. UP2U. Just NOT in public schools, in Florida. I kinda like THAT IDEOLOGY. If you want your kid to identify as a SEEDLESS WATERMELON FROM MARS. that's your choice. live and let live.....but the Left will NEVER just leave us normal folks alone. My son has a penis. My daughter has a vagina. End of story.

Oh yeah, I didn't want flour all over my clothes,, so I did leave the 5 pound bags of self rising flour in the original bags, I encased them in, ziploc bags. I kinda wish Big Joke had tried to snort it and get high.

Yes. I do recall that article. It was in a BKK English newspaper. The Nigerians were the most populous in the Bangkok Hilton. Regular old FIFA teams. 20+ years ago. I once took a 35mm camera picture of a Pattaya Mail headline that read "BEACH ROAD CLEARED OF ELEPHANTS AND PROSTITUTES!" I wish I still had that print.

DUDE! try to find self rising flour in Pattaya! I found a 5 pound bag at the Post Exchange in Okinawa. I bought 2 bags (They were Marines and called it the Base Exchange). I grabbed TWO EACH FIVE POUND bags of very innocent, self rising flour, as I tend to like American food. This was back when some idiot was mailing Anthrax around. Zero checks for anythimg when I hit Don Muang. This poor Uxbek gal....she was set up so a MUCH larger shipment could get thru.

Rape the county as hard and as fast as they can go. Oops! Sounds like me in Pattaya! ???? Well not rape. I normally keave a few thousand dollars here & there. AND....They smile a lot. Luckily I don't run the country. Charming

Errr. but the "Brakes Failed".
