  1. Only last night two men had an argument and the man stabbed his friend in the head. He died.

    The victim was a cousin. They argued over 20 bahts.

    The house where the murder took place was eventually destroyed. Its owner (not the murderer) said that it was haunted by the victim's ghost.

  2. Do a search in this forum on the subject. The company at Arcade advertises "VIP" buses but as one TV member phrased it, it is more like a "shack on wheels" with very old buses that have broken seats, air-con that does not work, broken toilet, etc. There is a company in town that has true VIP 24 seat, brand new luxury buses but you must book 5 days in advance. I can't think of their name (they are not in Arcade) but I've posted their contact info before.

    I did the search. This is what I've found.

    eek, yes they do. The "shack on wheels" you refer to was probably the same one I took one time. That is run by Chakapong Company whose office is inside the Arcade Station. They are terrible. Also the driver told my friend that he had been driving 48 hours without sleep! Makes you feel real safe.

    We took a very nice VIP bus another time run by a company whose name I can't recall. Their office is somewhere in the city, not inside Arcade. You will have to ask around as I didn't go to pick up the tickets myself.

    :o

    So does anybody know the name and address of the company that runs the "true VIP 24 seat luxury bus"? Or is it a urban legend?

    I might fly to VTE (or take my car). I'm fed up with Cha "Crap" Pong.

  3. Lets see you were molested by three gorgeous young women, drank, sang, ate and your complaining about $150, you need to get out more..

    Oz

    I would have considered it a successful night. :o

    Time to marry. You will get 3 in 1: a wife, a lover and a friend.

  4. Wish I would have read your comments about the Chackrapong VIP bus to Udonthani earlier though. I already bought my ticket for this Saturday. Looks like I'll be riding the "shack on wheels". At least I can get my dual entry though. And possibly for free? Me likey!!! :o

    Don't forget to report on your trip.

  5. Slight hicup in the office today when a customer returned from Laos with only a 15 day stamp on his passport. He claimed that he was advised the law had changed and no further 60 day visas at this time. The girls called Chiang Mai immigration and they confirmed this.

    Did he just go to the border or did he apply for a tourist visa at the Thai consulate in Vientiane?

  6. Last year I was really worried about my overstay. After reading whatever I could find (large fines, possible jail/holding time, banning) and finally visiting the immigration office in Bangkok before I left, all I had to do was pay something like 40k baht at the airport and be on my way. No fuss, no ban, no holding time, just an exit stamp and a smile. The officer that took the money and 'processed' me even said "have a good flight, see you next time."

    A little bit off topic but I thought the fine for overstay was still 20K. Can someone confirm that it's now 40K?

  7. as a catch-22 fan...

    His heart cracked, and he fell in love. He wondered if she would marry him.

    'Tu sei pazzo,' she told him with a pleasant laugh.

    'Why am I crazy?' he asked.

    'Perchè non posso sposare.' she answered.

    'Why can't you get married?'

    'Because I am not a virgin,' she answered.

    'What has that got to do with it?'

    'Who will marry me? No one wants a girl who is not a virgin.'

    'I will. I'll marry you.'

    'Ma non posso sposarti.'

    'Why can't you marry me?'

    'Perchè sei pazzo.'

    'Why am I crazy?'

    'Perchè vuoi sposarmi.'

    Yossarian wrinkled his forehead with quizzical amusement. 'You won't marry me because I'm crazy, and you say I'm crazy because I want to marry you? Is that right?'

    'Si.'

    'Tu sei pazz!' he told her loudly.

    'Perchè?' she shouted back at him, and smacked him loudly and flamboyantly on the chest with the back of her hand. 'Non posso sposarti! Non capisci? Non possso sposarti.'

    'Oh, sure, I understand. And why can't you marry me?'

    'Perchè sei pazzo!'

    'And why am I crazy?

    'Perchè vuoi sposarmi.

    'Because I want to marry you. Corina, ti amo,' he explained, and he drew her gently back down to the pillow. Ti amo molto.'

    'Tu sei pazzo,' she murmured in reply, flattered.

    'Perchè?

    'Because you say you love me. How can you love a girl who is not a virgin?'

    'Because I can't marry you'

    She bolted right up again in a treatening rage. 'Why can't you marry me?' she demanded, ready to clout him again if he gave an uncomplimentary reply. 'Just because I am not a virgin?'

    'No, no, darling. Because you're crazy.'

    :o

    I wish I could be Yossarian.

    General Topics

    Le Coq schizophrène

    Xakchaladadagonadse

    Since I’m a music freak, I quite like King Crimson (btw, my avatar already wears a crimson shirt), Grateful Dead and Selim (Miles).

    Maybe also: Léon, Barjot, Milo Minderbinder (from Catch 22), Bardamu (Journey to the End of the Night), ...

    Actually Yossarian was my favourite but unfortunately it's already been taken.

    I'm sure a few more ideas will come out when we meet at Tuskers.

  9. Why hide behind an avatar name? Why not just use your real name? Of course that could be a problem if there was more than one person with the same name registered. It could lead to some humorous situations similar to the old..."Who is on first?" skit

    Too many nutcases on the net. « Hiding » behind a nickname is like wearing a condom. It’s safer.

  10. Respect this poor man and the French members of this site

    Regards

    ajp

    You want TV members to respect a guy who used to beat his gf on a regular basis and eventually tried to set her on fire but you don’t have a single word for the poor girl. Moreover you ask for respect in the name of all the French members of this site. Well, since your post was so insensitive to the victim, I forbid you to speak in my name.

    Regards.
