  1. One needs to ignore half of what politicians here say and disregard the rest otherwise you would be believing that Thailand is soon going to the moon, that they have invented a cure for AIDS and Ebola and that all Thai politicians are born super-rich or borrowed it from dead friends.
  2. You know thats funny Mr Chalerm, You see weed as a narcotic and I see Thai politicians as being kindergarten children. Greedy little children with their hands full of cookies but still screaming and stamping for more.
  3. An excellent and justified retort! What the <deleted> is wrong with these people? Why is it so damn difficult to wear a mask.
  4. A journalists life is worth nothing compared to billion dollar oil deals.
  5. Indeed I in fact am looking for the body (casing) for a Lenovo Ideapad S400. The laptop works fine but the broken case interferes with the cooling fan. One mans rubbish................
  6. I am at present suffering the covid after safely avoiding it for over two years. I am now wishing I had worn a mask around my wife's family let alone a bank. If you dont give a sh#t about your own health at least think of others!
  7. My apologies re the title, I was miles out, however I did say it had been a while. I watched it again and thoroughly enjoyed it. I may just watch Apocalypse Now again as I am bedded down with the covid right now. "Allegory" , Ive just learnt a new word and yes, very fitting too. Dennis Hopper...555555! What more could you really say about the man. Reminds me of years ago Salvadore Dali was asked in an interview had he even partaken in LSD, to which he replied "Taken LSD? I am LSD!" The film was total insanity like the war and the politics it was trying in reflect.
  8. If you are into Apocalypse Now you should keep an eye out for The Making of Apocalypse Now by Elenore? Ford Coppola (Francis' Wife). It is amazing what they had to go through to make that movie which nearly killed Francis and sent Martin Sheen into a nervous breakdown. The scene where Sheen is in the hotel room attacking the mirror is actual footage of his breakdown where they kept the cameras rolling. I saw it many years ago and have never seen it since so it may be hard to procure.
  9. Many areas? I'm not in Bangkok but I imagine this is a gross exaggeration......am I correct?
  10. "Right, now that we have all that out the way lets all go have a soapy....and the hospitals paying, we'll call it a committee meeting"!
  11. Lawrence Of Arabia is one of my all time favourites. I'm one of these queer folk who can watch a movie many times over the years and enjoy it every time. Among them is the two Zulu movies, Moby Dick, Apocalypse Now, The Deer Hunter, and the Australian (and NZ) TV series Underbelly. All excellent stuff.
  12. You make a lot of sense. And Portugal is a perfect example. However I dont think that kind of good sense can be tolerated here.
  13. I can just hear that knock at the door Wednesday arvo...."err do you remember we let you out in June because the cannabis laws were changed, well its changed again so we need you to go pack your toothbrush and come along with us please, there's a good lad" lol!
  14. Oh I thought the Textron T-6C Texan II turboprop trainers were some kind of running shoes that Thai pilots wore for doing a runner after they crash.
  15. Well said but unfortunately 'big power' never learnt from its previous disasters in the region or elsewhere.
  16. Its all a big misunderstanding, the boys were there on an under cover surveillance job. And they had plastic bags in their pockets to prove they were on the job ????
  17. Im waiting for the good news about the guy next bed wanting to buy his slippers hahaha!
  18. No-one is disputing that it was easy for you to register for anything or get free/easy treatment because you have the YB/PK?? You stated: "When it was bill time I was not charged the full foreigner price but was charged on a lower pricing tier. " That is what I am saying is wrong. Where does it tier Foreigner with YB/PK as against Foreigner without YB/PK, the latter I imagine is the folk you claim are paying the "full foreigner price"? And no, wrong again, I did get up on the right side this morning as I do most days. Have great day!
  19. Wrong. There are actually 4 tiers. None of them mention anything about a yellow book or pink card. They are: 1. a Thai person, 2. A farang from neighbouring country, 3. A farang working on a Non Im B, and 4. a farang tourist or expat. https://coconuts.co/bangkok/news/dual-pricing-foreigners-legal-thai-public-hospitals/
