Why Do Thai Women Not Like Fishing?
bunnydrops replied to Neeranam's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Maybe the same reason I can't get any of the guys to join my knitting Bee -
Address Reporting Surprise!
bunnydrops replied to whophant's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Was told the same at Korat. Before I left to go back to the States my wife was told that we would not have to a new tm-30 when we got back. After we returned ( 5 months) I saw someone on this forum got fined when he returned. We went in and were told that that was no longer true. It had been two weeks but they made out a new one without fining us. -
When I moved here around 14 years ago, my wifes' sister gave me her truck to use for a year. She wouldn't let me pay for the upkeep and she had new tires put on. When I built my house her four brothers helped with labor for free. It's not always one-sided. Now, the twin daughters of one of my wife's sisters are going to the university. I pay for one of the dorm rooms (Although it is two to a room, the U won't let them room together???). One brother pays for the other, one bought them MB to use. It is one of the Thai customs that the west lacks. Everyone pitches in to help.

On one of my first trips to Thailand, I remember looking the wrong way when stepping out into the street. Even now, when going and coming to my home country where we drive on the other side, it takes me about 3 days of careful driving to remember what lane to turn into at intersections.

Where I live (rural near Pimai) you would mostly have to worry about the dogs. Not much crime here. The drug problem has gotten better, the better-known dealers felt it was getting too hot for them here and moved on. I think anyone seeing someone walking around at that time of night would think they must be up to no good.

Unexpected Guest: A Snake's Visit Brings Fortune to Noodle Vendor
bunnydrops replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
I'm sure it must be the photos, but to me, they don't look like the same snake in those two photos -
Mine works with her sisters, baking pasties that are sent and sold in Bangkok. When not doing that she is in the greenhouse tending the crop.

Alvin Toffler's Future Shock written in 1970 pretty much explains what is happening. He is the one that coined "information overload".

Most exciting thing you've done in Thailand
bunnydrops replied to bignok's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Jumping a meter in the air as a 2+meter snake as thick as my arm slid between my feet. -
I would go and not try and read too much into it. Yes, she does sound like she wants to get to know you better and maybe you would like to know her better. Just go, and after say "Thank you" and part ways.

What was this post about? Oh yes, pickpocketing. So far only once has anyone tried here in Thailand. A woman sat next to me on a night bus. I had the window seat and I guess she thought I was asleep. I felt her hand slip down into my front pocket. I didn't move just to see how far she would go. She quickly removed her hand, got up and moved to another seat. As Red Skelton said, if she had reached deeper she would have felt real nuts.

I heard this on a construction site. Two guys were having an argument, when one of the guys pulled the end from the retractable measuring tape on his belt and and put it up to the other guy's face, looked down to see what the measurement was, he said " Do you realize you are only 40 inches from being a Cxxx.Sxxxxx?"

I think that is what I got, 12 years, and still no leaks. The ones we got are pretty large, with only one downspout for 10 meters, never overflowed, but will often fill a 3000-liter tank in a day.

What to do when you know too much?
bunnydrops replied to bob smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I think it is more like "You can't talk to a farang about anything, because they are close-minded, and think they already know everything" -
I guess you have never left your wallet at home. One of my friends (family owned the business that made children's coats) Had a favorite saying when it can to money "Is there anything I can say that will help."

Tis true. I have a couple of millionaire friends. They would be the last people I would ask for a couple of bucks for a coffee.

My Legal Wife Has A Thai ID problem.
bunnydrops replied to NONG CHOK's topic in Visas and migration to other countries
Looks like lawyer time. None of the underlings, of both countries, have any idea of what to do. -
Every action has an equal opposite reaction. That being said, can any thought you are destined to have be original?

Ah, but the Tibet girls in Toronto
