Dr. Ekkarin continues: "As the drug is not necessary for the treatment of any life threatening condition and its usage is so hard to control, it is better to ban altogether, so we are putting the drug in the same category as heroin and amphetamines.

So one could possibly get life imprisonment for possessing Viagra. Insanity!

I use 'Connectfy me' which makes my laptop a hot spot through the True H dongle. From here Both myself and my missus connect to the Internet using the hotspot for our smart phones. This is very easy to do and a good solution if you want Wifi around the house.

Another good airline down the pan.

In what way? Same as Singapore or Lufthansa?

Lufthansa for a start, terrible food and service. I think that when airlines join the big groups and share flights the standards go west.

while you fly east

Given the fact that I live in Thailand I usually fly West.

They appear to know already.

Did Dubai to Sao Paulo earlier this year which took around 15.50 hours. I really hope that I don't have to do it again, being a smoker does not help either.

Received a WARNING e-mail from SCB today that their are scam e-mails going round and that SCB does NEVER send out mails and asking you to verify your identity...

So to the OP, yes this is spam, delete it and forget it.

How they got your e-mail address? Can be bought 1'000 for few $

Yes i guess you are correct regarding the mail addresses. There is no privacy nowadays.

That is why I have several mail addresses... the one I have for banking relations (like with SCB) is never used in any other place, I have another one for close friends (knowing that sometimes THEY loose my mail address to fraudsters) and for newsletters, open forums, social websites etc. I have again a different mail address... and for special cases, I am using 10-minute mail accounts or open a hotmail throw-away account.

Takes some logging to keep track, but this way I can be pretty sure what I receive where and which accounts are exposed and which are not.

That sounds like a sensible approach albeit fairly complicated. I might take a leaf out of your book and use a few more addresses as you suggest.

Haven't gotten them, but DID get this:

Thanks Jing. I did not get one of them even though I am a customer. Good to know that they are on the ball.

I have been receiving the following e mail several times over the past week. I am sure that this is a scam, so have obviously taken no action. Just wondering how they got my e mail address and also is anyone else getting them?

The five iron is my second line of defense. Here is my first line, that's my 45 KG dog playing tug of war with me.

Any particular reason that it's a 5 iron. Is that your best club?

You beat me to it Dork. I think that you can change the settings by clicking the battery icon in the bottom tray.Right hand side of screen

My wife is a policewoman and she has a Glock.. bought it only for one reason (guess who had to pay). Her idea of a divorce is to see how far I can run before she can get the second clip in.

She must be a really bad shot.

Knee jerk reaction again, which will affect many people who rely on these medicines for medical relief.

Can someone please clarify something for me? Are these 3 hour q's to enter or depart Thailand? Or both?

Thanks

The 3 hour figure relates to departure q times from last week.

It took me 2+ hours and a lot of aggravation to get through arrivals 11 days ago. The queues were disorderly, the desks were not fully manned and nobody seemed to give a shit about trying to sort things out. This is a planning and organisation problem something that the Thais do not excel at.

Leonard Cohen. Music to slit your wrists to!

Yes I wouldn't make anyone sit through listening to this diatribe.

Could end in mass suicide. Lol

How can this be measured? No one knows the extent of drug use in Thailand, well maybe other than the users. This will be declared as a great success in 12 months time and the figures will of course fit the original promise.

They look like second hand car dealers.

Perhaps the fingers should equally be pointed at the society that has so many children offering sexual services so they can buy a cool new phone or computer game.

Thought they had all just been given an IPAD.

RIP and condolences to Eileen.

Another bullshit story. We are not allowed to own land so all the land 'owned by foreigners' is actually owned by Thais, be it nominees or people like jay and me. The Thais still own it.

The Amity Treaty enables American citizens to own up to 1 rai of land. It has not been modified or annulled to date.

The stats doesn't come from 1 million Americans owning land here.

It might come from over-estimations and fear-mongering...

Where does it mention the fact that 1 million Americans own land in Thailand???

Dunno not my post.

+1 so wondering which brain owner but not brain user came to the above conclusion

Just stating facts. If farangs don't own the land how can they take it back. If your comment was meant to be amusing, you failed miserably.
