Is is a cultural thing...?  

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

No, it is not a cultural thing. It is a sex thing. I mean, it is a man thing.

Petro,

I guess we will never get an answer to your question. You see, the experts that apparently know; only like to reply to the initial question asked and then move on to other new posts.

They seem to stay away from question that start to get complicated. Wish you luck. If you find out, please let me know by PM.

Cheers

Many people seem to like Bella Napoli in Suk. soi 31, but I do not like the place.

I prefer Basilico in Suk. soi 33. But I am not just going for the pizza, but for the whole place and eating experience. They have a wide variety of choices -not only pizza.

For delivery, I usually go for Pizza Company, but friends that have tried it say that Pizzanotti is much better: http://www.dininginthailand.com/pizzanotti.asp

Rise in drinking among teenage girls

A recent survey shows that Thais drink an average of 14 litres of alcohol each year, putting Thailand in fifth place in world drinking leagues behind Portugal, Ireland, the Bahamas and the Czech Republic.

They used to be fourth. I guess they won (or is it lost?) one place.

When Boeings was developing the 777 they ran the test engine at high speeds and tossed frozen Turkeys at the intake to see how the engine would stand up to bird strikes.

Throwing a frozen turkey at high speed would not in any way simulate and test strikes by birds. Boeing perhaps bought frozen turkeys, but you can be sure they were not that stupid as to toss the frozen thing. They defrost them first.

You are confirming that girls are educated to be harder workers and take responsibility.

As is the case in most economically poor societies.

My vote is no. I will explain why I vote no.

I think that a forum in Buddhism is not inclusive enough. I would have it on "Philosophy and Religion." This way more things can be discussed besides strictly Buddism.

You could argue that in certain sense I am voting yes. Ok. Fine. However my point is that we should not exclude then more general theological topics that are of the same nature than Buddism.

You can always open a bank account as a tourist (savings but not a checking one).

The work permit can be obtained faster.

I found this in the FAQ section of the website of the Thai consulate general in Los Angeles (USA)

* I will be visiting Thailand with my family. Can I send all of our passports and visa applications together in one envelope?

Yes. You can include all passports and all necessary documentation in one envelope and return envelope. You may also include one cashier's check or money order for the visa fees for all applicants. In addition, please write the name of the applicant on the back of their photograph.

* Can I apply for a Visa for someone other than myself?

Yes. When applying for a visa in person, the visa applicant is not required to apply by them self as long as all required documentation is submitted at the time of the visa application. However, all visa application must be signed by the applicant.

It would thus seem that there is nothing wrong with someone else applying at a consulate on your behalf or with sending the passports by courier.

GT same as always. I didn't go on the bus trip as I had a couple of meetings in BKK saturday afternoon.

BTW, your thoughts on the new style of bkktonite?

I don't know. But we will find out soon.

Chuck, oui c'est moi.

But i wonder how the guy keep the dog still with

one hand

Giving the dog tender loving kisses in the back of the neck. Maybe.

Actually, I think they drive quite nicely here compare to other places. If you find this place scary you should try India or Nepal. Give it a try also in Venezuela. South Florida in the USA can also be scary with old those people past expiration date still driving.

No. Pero mas que tu si.

nokna, you moved to thailand? no way!

Years ago when leaving Thailand w my 11 y/o daughter and paying for overstay at the airport, I was surprised to find that she didn't have to pay the 200B/day overstay penalty as I did. Bot of us have a passport from the same country. I have no idea why ... maybe penalties are not the same for minors as they are supposed to be under the care of adults.

Why is this called a rescue? How do we know the dog was not enjoying it?

Why call it rape? Because the dog didn't give consent? Do horses give consent to having people on top of them playing Polo?

Maybe a working horse that is being whiped and made to work lots of hours needs the rescuing more than this dog.

I'd venture to say that there's a good 5000 to 10000 people currently in the Los doing monthly visa runs.

Actually, last time I checked it was 14,750 people

New York, the Bronx, sunny day, hot and humid like h ell. Two guys walk into a small, hot, humid and dirty flat dragging by the arms a slim young pitiful looking fella.

Inside Big Leroy, a huge mother-focka black, sweaty, smelly, mean looking guy with a tooth pick in the mouth is cleaning the dirt off his fingernails with a machete.

One of the guys says:

- Hey Big Leroy, the boss says to work on this guys's ass, do him good and make him a bitch ... boss said it is to teach him not to play smartass with the bros from the hood.

The poor victim cries and begs for forgiveness but Leroy just ignores him and nods with the head:

- Leave him in that corner. I will take care of that son of a bitch in a minute.

After the two guys are gone the frightened young man crying says:

- Mr. Leroy, please, do not do that to me, let me go and I promise I will not tell anybody that you let me go without punishment. Please.

Leroy says:

- Shut up and stay put

5 minutes later two other men arrive draging another guy:

- Big Leroy, the boss says to take out the eyes and to cut the arms of this guy. He wants people to know what happens when they still money from the boss.

Leroy:

- Just leave him in the corner.

Later two men come dragging another scared fella:

- Big Leroy, boss wants this guy castrated so that he never again dares to touch the boss' girls. Ah. and said also to cut his tongue and fingers so that he never can touch any other woman ever.

Leroy barely moving:

- I will sort him out. Leave him there with the other two moderfukas.

When the two guys leave, the first small young man barely raising his voice says:

- Mister Leroy? Sir, with all due respect, and just helping you not become confused, I am the one you are going to do in the ass; you remember. Right?

Si me pagas yo te enseño.

No. LOS is a way to call Thailand. Land Of Smiles (L.O.S.)

Mine means ..... what else? Smegma. Why? Long story, but to make it short lets say I liked when as a young boy the maid my parents had was always very thorough when bathing me. Sadly, my mother forbid her from continuing to do so when I was about 15 years and noticed that I never showered while the maid had the day off.
