The same folks who say a small screen has the same viewing area as my 55" LED TV..... ????

You have a link for this plan as I don't see it anywhere.

Not sure what happens now as I have an AIS recurring monthly account. But I used to get a 10 THB usage warning and then a 49 THB usage warning when I left the 'data' setting of my phone on. It used to be 49 THB was the max daily charge. Before getting the monthly recurring account I always turned my phone's data setting 'off' because I was around free WiFi service areas. I decided to sign up for the monthly recurring account when I was doing a lot of traveling in remote areas. Funny my recurring account name is MaoMao 239Baht 2 GB but the monthly charge is 255.73 Baht.

Whichever can make the best sandwich!!

I'm hoping to find a good app as mentioned in the title. Looking for one that's totally free with no ads, doesn't need access to all my personal information, and doesn't take up a lot of memory where it runs slow or bogs down phone operation. Anyone have any recommendations? Listing pros and cons would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

I stayed at the Sofitel in Ladprao a few decades ago when going to BKK for business. They had pigeon served at their dinner buffet. I tried it a few times and it was no different than eating dove. Dove hunting in the Midwest was very popular when I was a youngster. If I recall I think 30 a day was the limit. Understandably as one is just a few bites. My father used to raise and race pigeons. There was prize money involved but in actuality it was nothing more than a reason to sit and drink beer with friends.

Racist? Too <deleted> funny! Why do you say that? I said 'most', not all..... And my decades of living here, traveling here. as well as direct observation with my wife's family backs up my statement. You ever look on the ground around your surroundings? What do you usually see? TRASH!!!!

CBD Banned in Hong Kong with Prison Sentence and Fine
dingdongrb replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Seems that many have: "In just two months 15 foreign travellers have been arrested in Bali over marijuana they bought legally in Thailand, officials say." In the USA how many folks are found trying to board airplanes with guns or ammunition? -
CBD Banned in Hong Kong with Prison Sentence and Fine
dingdongrb replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Not even close.... I lived in China for 2 years and have stayed in HK so much it was like a second home. There's a huge difference between China and HK. At least it was back then as my travels to both places were over 8 years ago. -
CBD Banned in Hong Kong with Prison Sentence and Fine

It appears Hong Kong has gotten stupid. -
Totally agree...... I cannot count the number of times I witnessed employees leaving the restroom without washing their hands. Also witnessed numerous times where the cooks/servers would go out back, have a cigarette, and then return in the back kitchen door without washing their hands. NOTE: I have only received food poisoning once in my life (so far...knock on wood) and it was contracted by eating some chicken at a buffet..... in the USA!

Here are a few pics showing what neglect of routine maintenance and these pigeons can do. Like I posted earlier, most Thais don't know how to keep anything nice and maintained.

I used to pan for gold occasionally around the Cripple Creek area but was just doing so to have a nice afternoon in the sun breathing in fresh clean air. We would occasionally find an itty bitty nugget but wasn't out to make any real money. However back in the mid 80s when gold was over $300 USD an ounce a friend and I set up a small dredge on the Arkansas River. We only worked it on the weekends after our real jobs. On a good weekend we would get a baby food jar or two full of nice shinny gold flakes (with a few nuggets). All in all that would equate to an ounce or two.

I'm unsure the spelling, but my Thai friends call those folks that talk loud and excessively a 'nook ian'.... When first heard them say that I asked what it means and they merely pointed at one of those Myna birds. I immediately understood the connection.

We purchased a townhome about 15 years ago. It was new and they had built about 50 of them in the area. Today most of those 50 are in shambles. Thais don't know how to keep anything nice and maintained. At first it was bats invading every nook and cranny to nest in the attic areas. After bat-proofing ours the pigeons seemed to have invaded next. The pigeons will actually peck away at the structures in order to make their homes. The buildings are starting to actually fall apart. I bought a couple of life sized plastic owls and put one up on my roof as well as gave one to my good Thai neighbor who did the same. Needless to say that has seemed to keep them away from our roofs but the other townhome owners don't seem to care. We have since bought a house about 8km away so the next time I go I will take some pics to post as it's totally appalling.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle dismiss South Park lawsuit rumour
dingdongrb replied to Scott's topic in World News
The creators of South Park are genius. But what would one expect from guys that live around Fairplay Colorado. Have you ever been there? -
Sadly the only experience you provided me was a reminder that everyone has their own opinion about anything. Thanks for sharing yours.

I thought the post was about Carter? Why do you constantly bash Reagan?

cheapest way to call internationally from AIS mobile
dingdongrb replied to persimmon's topic in IT and Computers
Skype.... LINE...... Facebook messenger..... What more is needed? -
Sorry to disappoint you, I'm not confused at all. "Carter took office during a period of "stagflation," as the economy experienced a combination of high inflation and slow economic growth." .......not mentioning the passive little weakling when it comes to the Iran Hostage Crisis. Regan - A mediocre actor but not a puppet.
