Slip

For the record, I think it is important to clarify, when I said I was "enjoying a pre-beer McDonalds early yesterday evening" in my original post, I meant gastronomically and not sexually.

TWO top quality posts/ edits in one short thread. Thanks you guys.

How are you going to make it up to the missus? Quack quack

The OP is, sadly, just the flip side of the coin of the very people he is complaining about. There are some good points on here about the diversity of people wherever you go.

I'm not sure the new people arriving necessarily fit in the categories offered.

Typo

Sorry- I've been out and forgot to refresh the page, I was responding to post #3 or something.

One of the things determining just how much it will cool you is as you say... wind chill factor Sorry- I see how that came across as a wee bit thick.<br>

I was meaning to refer to the OP's comments about the temp he had his

aircon set too, when I commented about it being 'cooler';

Yabaa expressed my point much more competently

Meanwhile Galvheim, thanks for that (frankly rather interesting) breakdown of your bill; I seem to have half as much electric stuff as you, but pay 2-3 times as much on my bill. :S

EDIT- Sorry TV is playing up and the formatting got printed

Well they never did reach the 1 million man march they were aiming for. How long would this cash keep 5000 malcontents on the streets for? Oh of course, 600 days by your reckoning. Maybe we got off lightly. Mind you, once the gougers at the top had their pound of flesh, probably not enough left to keep a Bangkok motor-psych driver in Lao Kao for more than about a week.

In my experience it's the norm for teachers to work while their paperwork is being sorted out. (Something like 20 teachers in my school have been required to in the last few years- i.e all new teachers). Doesn't make it any more legal unfortunately, but you would be pretty unlucky to get nailed.

I get interest on my Thai bank a/c.- BKK bank.

It could be worse. Imagine how non-pedo Catholic priests feel these days.

I'm sure they're both getting on reasonably well, all things considered.

Surely a fan doesn't really cool?- it just gives you a bit of 'wind chill factor'.

How long have they been held in jail allready? I think you will find

deportation is a punishment. I never said my neighbours do not like

me, so I think you are a little twisted.

..............whats this.............. another one about to post a reply..........

Ok - we get it. Can you stop now before it becomes pure spam?

There's a bit of a beginners thread here if you haven't seen it already. Hope it's helpful to you:

Softwater's self taught lessons

sorry- double post.

Add at least another 1500 baht a month? About that for my one a/c which I use only at night. Cooler though

Have you got dogs?

I think he's making a prediction Simon.

This made me laugh though:

"I object to staying in a jail cell like a criminal with rapists and murderers when I have not been accused of anything," Purcell told the court.

Presumably, seeing as he's on remand they are not actually rapists and murderers quite yet? Sorry- I'm being naive again.

OK- this shouldn't be so hard for an educated guy like you. Here is the flame:

and this kind of half educated bar talk

Meanwhile, the BBC were clearly distorting the position. That's why there was a sudden groundswell of complaint against them. Are you saying the Reds didn't behave like football hooligans? Fair enough- they behaved much worse. Are you saying they didn't make inflammatory speeches? Are you suggesting that the average Red protestor (as opposed to the well paid military wing) understood the hideous nature of the plans to burn down parts of their city? His reply wasn't so fatuous.

Then you flamed him

Where's Eggomatic when you need a Sondhi quote?

I'm sure that even the board's 'yellow shirts' agree that these guys need to do a stretch.

Can you sing 'why are we waaaaiting..."?

Respect for that QED, unless the English language has been remodelled in my absence.

On a very small practical tip like stylie thang- I found 'writing letter practice sheets' (like school kids use) useful for learning the alphabet. It's also kind of fun if you have a bit of spare time, you can get quite into forming those perfect letters.

What?

Surely this is a troll?

He use to get 15 sick leave entitlements a year accumulative but he was apparently took 67 single days in a year.

And for the record, 10 days a year is the norm I think.

Just confirms again what a joke the Thai judicial system is.

If he had killed a a member of my family in the way he did Gary Poresky which was assasination style 1 to the body 2 to the head to an unarmed man sitting in a restaurant, then i would make sure that his sentence continued and would ensure he never made his next birthday.

Its totally disgusting that he is out free after 2 years for COLD BLOODED MURDER

So your response to cold blooded murder is.... COLD BLOODED MURDER. Really?

^^Or in other words: 'This misrepresentation is a marketing decision- now kindly piss off and let us flog your heritage'
