bbko replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Even fake gold can get people in trouble, I remember a story several years back were a farang was riding his motorbike & wearing a gold necklace, as he was driving another motorbike came alongside him and snatched the necklace causing him to fall off his bike and then get hit by a passing car. -
Bees can be very protective when provoked. There's a large open field next to the house, and I needed to trim back some brushes growing around the utility pole, i didn't see the small hive and those bees came out stinging, they got me 3 times in a matter of seconds before I took off running as fast as I could.

I'm not yet eligible to start collecting MY social security, but as my friend was telling me, be careful with the GOP, they are already eyeing to cut social security, so I better consider collecting my money earlier than if the Dems are in power. -
IMO it's better than having every Som Chai stopping wherever they felt like to make a U-turn. Plus the Thepprasit night market is less chaotic when the cars exit. Now if they could only deal with all the cars double parking in front of whatever shop they feel like cause they are too lazy to properly park a few doors away.

Tragic motorcycle sidecar accident claims life of Thai child
bbko replied to webfact's topic in Central Thailand News
Those motorbike sidecars are a sad joke. While visiting the in-laws up North, I needed to go to 7-11 and used the family's motorbike with a sidecar. That thing was dangerous as hell, the bike did not drive in a straight line, it kept pulling to the right and I had to use force to keep it driving straight. -

Anyone seen either of these for sale in Pattaya lately?
bbko replied to In Full Agreement's topic in Pattaya
If you buy by the case you can place an order with the Makro (and I'm guessing other supermarkets) service desks. -

Do i need a degree to teach in high school ?
bbko replied to steph83's topic in Teaching in Thailand Forum
My son is in high school now, at his international school it's only English or Chinese. If a "better" international school is going to teach French, German, Italian, etc, I'd expect them to want their teachers to have a degree. -
I take it you're a hotel worker/owner that has an ATM in the lobby? If that machine is eating cards on a semi-regular basis, I'd say get that ATM cleaned/checked out, it's bad for your business.

bbko replied to Chris Daley's topic in IT and Computers
Given the average age of the posters here (70ish), I'd say having to worry about AI in the in the next few decades should be the least of their concerns. 555. -

British and Russian Motorcyclists Collide in Pattaya
bbko replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Typical Aseannow thread, starts with a minor traffic accident and quickly goes off the rails and descends to someone saying others need Sigmund Freud. 555. -
I once had USAA mail me a insurance refund check, on the envelope they abbreviated Thailand with the letters "Thai", the letter took about 3 months for me to get, it went to Taiwan first, then back to the USA, then to Thailand. Some Americans know nothing about other countries.
