  1. police investigation that suspects involvement of someone close to the victim. Really?
  2. Interesting that almost all the e-cigarette paraphernalia here in the US is made in Thailand.
  3. He's going to have long lost relatives coming out of the woodwork like termites. ha ha ha ha
  4. The incident has prompted Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt to order the temporary closure of the hotel to ensure the building meets safety standards. A little late.
  5. I'm surprised they weren't charged with stealing jobs from Thai women. Isn't that one of the Thai people only jobs?
  6. Pretty sure I was in the same hotel and felt that sway. I had got lucky, myself and a friend was in Bangkok and undecided whether to go to Phuket or Pattaya for a couple of days. We picked Pattaya for the golfing. Whoa..
  7. I find it totally amazing how good those doctors are at the Police Hospital.. they take a man who's dying and bring him back to the peak of life. They probably deserve Nobel prizes for this miraculous event.
  8. $10,000 baht isn't going to go very far.
  9. Me... every time I hear that word, I think Mobsters.
  10. Women touching a monk is a no no, men is ok.
  11. Becoming a monk for a week or 2 to make merit for your dead grandfather should be looked at. About half the problems brought into a temple are from these quick in and out monks. They virtually don't learn anything about how to be a monk or the Buddhist religion.
  12. I think there are a lot of the Buddha's teaching's that are always going to be confusion for us. Since the Buddha didn't speak English and it was a hundred years or so after he died before anyone thought to write down these teachings, I'm sure a lot of them were misconstrued. Same as the teachings of Jesus.
  13. Wouldn't have happened if this had been a Shao Lin monk. 😁
  14. "violations of donation laws" what the heck does this even mean?
  15. In Texas also. I live out in the country, shotgun blasts going off is nothing. Usually shooting at crows.
  16. I think half is too much,, but he should have paid the guy something for his time.
  17. “If they fall from the vehicle, the driver will have to take responsibility.” I call BS.. The driver will run away like they always do.
  18. I'm guessing, that there goes my 10 million dollars for helping this Nigerian Prince out of his problems. Dang it.
  19. I've been to the Thai section of LA many times. And visited the big Thai Buddhist temple there, Wat Thai LA. This is a strange lot, they show their Thainess in almost every aspect, to Farangs, but underneath that Thai veneer is a whole different creature. I have yet to figure them out.
