    Silly boy..its one State only, and one that he didn't win last election, so not a biggie for him.

    But hopefully some other States may get some balls and vote for the same.

    But now it's in the hands of the Supreme Court who will make a decision in January.

    Craig's spot on with your Samsung S5. You'll need to get it "unlocked" which with some U.S. carriers, like AT&T, I think, can be a real pain.

    Might be possible to get it unlocked here in Bangkok at the MBK Mall, but best to check if you can do it in the U.S. ahead of time.

    Mac

    My brother came here last year with his AT&T iPhone. He couldn't get a new sim for it as it's not possible to remove it! So...we just bought him a cheapie phone for a few weeks.

    I had my Samsung galaxy s3 (at&t) unlocked at a phone shop $20.I'm from NC.It uses a mini sim card which I got from 12call.Works with out any problems here.

    I got a condo 1 br condo near Chang mai Universty.I signed up for 3 months at first but decided I liked it and after 1 month signed up for 1 year.about $300per month,plus electricy,water. I pay the meter rate not land lords.

    good luck and welcome to CM

    CPAP machines

    Posted

    Yea I've used a Cpap for 4 years now. My wife doesn't complained about the snoring any more and I feel much more rested.I use to wake up several times a night

    I do recommend you go thru a doctor as these machines are custom to each person. The size of the mask, the different type of head gear use and they have

    a pressure setting(air flow) that is recommended by your doctor. This is preset (programmed) and can not be changed by you.

    I use 1 that has a water reservoir attached that moistures the air I breath and is rather comfortable but That's a matter of choice and price for each person.

    Valium for sleeping

    I use an over the counter Antihistamine (Allergy)tablet.If you Google ingredients in most OTC sleep aids you will find they have the same

    ingredient's and 25mg per tablet. Yes some Antihistamines and sleep tablets do contain different ingredient's.

    The one's that contains Diphenhydramine HTC.Same thing you find listed in Equate and Unisom from the states

    Just saying this works for me with no side effects in the morning.

    Low-cost Calls From Usa To Thai Mobile Phone

    Posted · Edited by divndave

    Try www.ReliableCom.

    You get a cheaper rate if your caller(USA) has unlimted long distance and can use one of the local numbers listed.I use the xpress card and get about 3cents a minute or 199 minutes on a 5 dollar card to thailand both cell and land phone.

    they do have 800 numbers to use but the price per minute goes up.Alos make sure there are no monthly fee's with their other cards listed.

    Hope this helps

    If You Were To Die.................

    To the OP,

    Life insurance is the way to go. :D

    An American policy that pays 6,000,000 baht for a very reasonable $300/year should provide a comfortable future for your wife.

    And perhaps some incentive for her family.... :D

    Always some good advice and options here onTV :D

    But I can't see myself on my death bed with my wife at my side and say to her"thanks tee-loc for giving me xx years of your life but when I take this last breath it back to the rice field for you and the kids"

    I got to do a little better than that

    Her getting the house,car ect is already in place I had hope she would get my pension which she will not.

    Not that I Plan on dying anytime soon but as we all know life can be short

    health wise I got another 30 years plus :D

    I am thinking if we spend that much time together I would want her to keep the same standard of living she has now after all she would be an old lady in 30 years not much chance of employment or a new falang :D

    At the moment it seems a good Life insurance is the way to go.

    maybe I got to much time to drink chang and think :o

    If You Were To Die.................

    If you were to die :D how have you planned to make sure your thai wife and children have monies to survive?

    My question comes from the fact that I get Social security from the states my wife(thai) can not collect death benfits because of restrictions on non- US citizens not living in the US. :o

    I am thinking maybe a insurance policy of some type for her but would just be interested in what others have done :D

    Any ideas :D
