  1. I have two air pistols and ALWAYS bring one whenever I ride my pushbike to deter feral beasts aka soi dogs. I DO carry it in a basket in the front and always place a rag on top for the very reason OP is asking. Try as I might, I could never find a definitive answer to whether or not they are legal. Thai laws - clear as mud.
  2. These START at 15k for a studio. OP stated 8k.
  3. I use raw Brave, NO tweaking, no adblocker. I believe Brave does adblocking automatically out of the box.
  4. I have trouble believing they're actually going to sit down and talk policies. A quick photo op is more likely.
  5. Brave browser has no blocking problems AND no ads.
  6. Check out hipflat.com: https://www.hipflat.co.th/en/market/condo-jomtien-fpsfko These prices are often flexible.
  7. I understand we're not to make comments on "another slow news day," so I won't do that.
  8. Buy a new mouse. If that doesn't fix it, then it's something else.
  9. Two mistakes: 1. Riding an elephant. 2. Riding an elephant when you are over the age of 20. Sum num na.
  10. But it has NO effing place in this topic. Stupid arguments searching for a venue.
  11. I lived in Chanthaburi for about a year while maintaining a condo in Jomtien where I had the TM30 registered. It was a royal pain in the butt. Chanthaburi immigration refused any and all services except one re-entry stamp. I closed out the Jomtien place and moved all my stuff to Chanthaburi and registered as such, but can't wait until I'm done with this place. Complain all you want about Jomtien IO, they're many times better than Chanthaburi.
  12. Fercryingoutloud, can we please leave the politics out of at least ONE article? The BS is at a much more local level.
  13. I've told this story before, and here is one more time - I got sick of Thailand, moved to Mexico, and was back in six weeks. As far as going back "home," I visit family & friends in the US once or twice a year and am reminded why I don't live there any more. Bored I can tolerate, US BS I can't.
  14. Did you ask the folks I pointed you towards what they would charge just to double check your passport package? I'm sure they wouldn't charge the whole figure I quoted you if you explain you just want someone to help get you through the goal posts of success here.
  15. This is the latest I could find: https://th.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/passports/instructions-for-ds-82-passport-card-application/
  16. Be careful about option 5. I DON'T REMEMBER WHERE I SAW IT, but I thought one of the requirements was to obtain a money order to cover the cost of them returning the passport through the mail because they were no longer accepting self-addressed postage paid envelopes. Double and triple check that last bit.
  17. When my son was 4, he behaved this way. Then he grew up.
  18. You DO know people laugh AT you and not WITH you?
  19. Since you're imposing your unasked for comment, allow me retort. I have a civil service pension and income from real estate investments. The money I earn is inconsequential. Last year I bought six 55-inch monitors for the school, and just yesterday I donated a small but powerful laptop. I teach cuz I love it. Without this gig, I'd most likely be sitting on a bar stool, nursing a half empty beer at 11:00 a.m. Maybe YOU should find something positive to occupy your time?
  20. I'm back to teaching. Only have a few minutes to spare every day. Thanks for asking! 😁
  21. This is EXACTLY why I have remained single in LOS. I tried for a year to establish a long term relationship and realized the cultural differences are too far great to make this possible for me. Since then, I rent rather than own. We all know what the score is, everyone gets what they want and go home happy.
  22. Has anyone tried those beans predigested and extracted from elephant poop?
  23. Relatively new member, at this rate will be spending quality reflective time on the beach.
  24. I dabbled in being a realtor for a short while. Our motto: "Buyers are liars, and sellers are, too."
  25. Have some fun?!? If this is your idea of fun, you need to either go back to drinking copious amounts of liquor or get back on the wagon.
