Hey Kid, get off of my lawn!!!!!!
They roll up the streets when the sun goes down, doesn't matter to me cause I am in bed by 8, up with the sun. If you are going to the party, not so much the place for you, if you have long left the party and have time for the birds and butterflies then come up to Isaan.

Hard to tell what they will end up with after they go through the whole process. this makes great headlines though. I know a fellow who is a Police Inspector in Chiang Mai and he is the real deal, a no nonsense guy who is dedicated to doing the right thing

I give the 500 from either airport to sukhumvit, good luck to them, most of the time they are stuck in traffic without a fare or driving around without a passenger, so maybe its an extra $3.00. I don't take a taxi every day. Wish the driver Chok Dee and be grateful that you don't have that job.

A foreigner with jealousy and insecurity issues, I have seen far too many here in Thailand. Too many of these sad stories, no thought of the children's future. Just blind rage. My heart goes out to the many victims of this senseless slaughter.

I believe she was aiming lower than the abdomen. 500 baht and off she goes.

It's an idiots game here in thailand selling drugs is like wearing a neon sign that says kick me. Eyes and ears everywhere.

Sometimes if you enroll in their fan club they give you extra weight with checked luggage ie. Nokair, carry on I have been checked once and they charged exorbitant fees, having said that one time I was on a plane and dropped a very heavy bag and was not happy to see that their was a small child in the aisle that it barely missed.

I am happy to live here in thailand, Thais are on a different economic scale than westerners. In most instances you get a great deal in housing and food and many other things, the buses are incredibly cheap, just a few baht for everyone. I hear a lot of complaints about park fees and zoos, but suck it up. You can get a discount card at the movies. All in allow we are in a sweet spot.

I have been calling my congressman daily to repeal the estate tax and the alternative minimum tax. Not. Big payday for the tangerine orangutan President.

Used them a lot before 2013, they were good, always took premium economy, got bounced to business and used points for business and got flat bed, great trip. they used to have great prices on good for one year round trip, then they finessed them to 3 month max. Their US hub is in Seattle based out of Taiwan.

Bangkok Bank has branches in New York and London for sure and perhaps Australia? Easy to transfer money from my US account to Bangkok Bank account without wire transfer fees.

There were no images of Buddha until Alexander the great started putting statues of himself in the countries that he conquered, it was 500 years after the death of the Buddha that the first images appeared, the faces were fashioned after greek statues. Buddha said that he did not want images and that Buddha is within us all.
Still it is tasteless to use these Buddha heads as decorative ornaments.

I live in Isaan, my wife is 39 and I am 72. I am helping her raise a 9 year old from a previous thai man who left for a younger woman and never gave a penny for his son. I built a house on 12 rai of land and have 25 rai close to the river.
We have been together for 5 years and we are very happy. My home is a little eden with fruit trees and a beautiful garden. Her family are hard workers who do not drink or smoke. Whenever we have some harvesting. The whole family comes to help. Everyone in her family are more capable than I as they know how to build from bamboo, do their own plumbing and electric. They had too as they have no money to have anyone else do anything for them.
Had I been in the USA I would be looking forward to a nursing home. My wife does not spend money on makeup or clothing. Is not interested in jewelry and has a solid moral compass. I consider myself truly blessed. We have a good partnership. That is true for the majority of my Farang friends here too. She is a great cook to boot.

Trump put an ad in an obscure Florida publication asking for workers to his mar-a-largo resort and he said to respond by fax making it as hard as possible to apply, then he asked for visas saying he could not get local workers. I would imagine it is a legal process that has to be gone through by his stateside employer. Good luck with it. Have a lawyer help you.
Is "Farang" Derogatory?

All depends on the tone?! ;-) :-(. It could be just people of European origin but it all depends on the perception of the person and the context. This is a very nationalistic country.
