  1. Thanks for your honesty. There is truth that there are a lot of gold diggers out there and when the money dries up things can change quickly. As you have demonstrated there are also a lot of good women here too. Problem is if they want to give you trouble they can quite easily and many are unscrupulous enough to do so.

    I am curious to know if you met the first wife in a bar?

  2. Neversure and transam win the prize, wheel bearing it is ! would have thought that it was a bit early for a wheel bearing to go (15,000 km) but what do I know ? they also need to change a part on the steering rack as I get a click click click when turning the wheel to full lock, apparently 3 days wait for the parts and 1 1/2 days to do the work, told them to make sure the courtesy car is waiting me when I bring it in !

    These parts wearing at only 15km is not a good sign. Probably farmed out the part to some Chinese consortium that downgraded the quality is my guess. Ridiculous to wear at these miles as they should go over 100k without these problems. And to think there is not cold weather driving either to greatly accelerate wear. I wonder how long they last in Canada?

  3. I personally like Rawai beach but best if you have a motorbike. The beach there is not for swimming but a few kms up the road are beautiful hidden beaches with chairs and food of course. This area is not so heavily populated and has a nice native feel to it.

    Except all those "hidden beaches" are well known to the locals who use them to embark and disembark hordes of Chinese and Koreans from their speed-boats.

    How can anyone recommend Rawai beach which consists of mud and dead coral at low tide, over a proper swimming beach.

    Kata is beautiful, but, can get over-crowded. Karon is 4 km long and never gets packed.

    I am not so sure you know what you are talking about. I have been to kata and karon and patong and krabi. Rawai is adjacent to some of the best protected beaches for swimming anywhere in the area exceeding the open tides of Kata and Karon and of course the traffic. Yes Rawai is mud with the tides going out but it is also excellent seafood and like I said if you know it there is a prime beach less than 3 km away that many people including you don't know about lol.

  5. So exactly, what more of claim do the Jews have to the land than the palestininans?

    Simple. It was given to them by the UN. The Palestinians had the same chance, but they blew it. Israel won a bunch of wars and built a thriving country with one of the best armies in the world and a very decent economy. The truth is that no one can take it away from them.

    Not quite so simple. Isreael has received massive aid both militarily and financially from the US and still does. Regarding terrorism Israel was partly created by the terrorist actions of jewish rebels trying to intimidate the British into leaving Israel. There are always two sides to a coin but you can only see one side. It takes two to tango or to tangle.

  6. Im guessing this must have been the work of local managers trying to remove competition and saw an opportunity being that they were making false claims. There is no way KFC corporate would ever approve of such actions. Let alone make threats to food stalls without legal action even if under the table... no way! But for sure I would check into the managers of the local KFCs to investigate because this smells of typical thai mafia extortion tactics.

    But as a graphic designer it pisses me off to see thais ripping off well known brands to deceive people. I would love to see those guys get fined for copyright violations. Just because it might take more than a couple minutes to come up with an original idea doesnt mean you need to rip another companies branding and ideas.

    Interested to know if you have a work permit to do graphic design in Thailand? Copyright laws are often nothing more than the theft of common language.
