Never heard of her... Could be me, of course

Maybe she is doing some more research for her single "My Happy Ending"

"A drug checkpoint was set up at Aranyaprathet district of Sa Kaeo province to help stem the smuggling of illicit drugs into the country before the Loy Krathong celebrations starts next week."

What has Loy Krathong to do with drugs?!?

Read the news: The USA is spying on everyone everywhere... Friends, enemies, anyone....

As always these days, their 'excuse' is national security (of course, only their own...)

They are very good in the 'policy of fear'

“Phuket doesn’t have a big mafia problem,” Gen Ong-art said.

"Chart Chindapol is not going to let mafia elements and foreign criminals destroy the island."

Too late! It is already destroyed....

Don't worry! As usual, TAT will give this a positive spin and TAT numbers will go up

I am not a gambler at all, but I would like to put ALL my money on this bet. Any takers?!?

There are many things I want "reset to zero".

Mostly bad debts and relationships

I do not speak/write Chinese! Can I have one in my own language as well?!?

How about 3 to 5 for assualt with a deadly weapon and malicous wounding!

....No, no,no, that is if the tourist had stabbed the Thai fake vendor....

I don't think Ms A was an A student in her younger days. ?

She was probably not even a student

It seems that it is OK to do all kinds of stupid things, when you are drunk...

Maybe I should drink more

Yeah I used to eat at Japantown in San Francisco a lot. After that, Fuji and Zen don't rate. It's not only Japanese people that would get that.

Agree 100%. I lived in Tokyo for 2 years; Fuji and Zen are probably the best in Thailand (are they?!? I don't know others), but they would have NO customers in Japan

Oh, no, there are some better Japanese restaurants in Pattaya that cater to Japanese people. But even better places in Sri Racha (large Japanese expat community) and Bangkok.

You would make me happy by sharing the information about where to find the good/better Japanese places (Pattaya, Sri Racha, BKK). Good to eat, for special occasions

"The body of the woman was said to have been found in a large plastic bag. She was suspected to have been murdered"

What a brilliant conclusion

Vogue women are only beautiful to other women, not to men

Noami on the right is beautiful, on the left she is not ugly, but just unattractive...

I think we all know that money is far more important than the death of his Holiness the Supreme Patriarch, especially for TAT.

TAT is deeply disrespected by me (liars and thiefs)

Why not add 1% to the hotel rooms tax?

Don't give them more ideas!!!! You know the result: they increase hotel tax and extra (medical) tax

Not sure what you expect. Seems reasonable to expect foreigners to be insured.

Very reasonable expectation!! I ALWAYS have insurance (health and travel), because you never know what might happen... (my frustration though is that I am careful and sofar have not made any claims!)

I refuse however to pay for other people who are too stupid to have insurance, for whatever reason. Too expensive is NOT a reason; after all, they have enough money to go on holiday...

It should be the first thing to buy when you go on holiday

Central Festival: Never eat there, because

- food not to my taste

- too expensive

- too far

- don't like the people (in general) in Central (although they have some beautiful sales girls!)

- bad vibes

- Tesco and Big C are much closer and food is quite OK for me

1. They are not fake watches, they are 'genuine copies' or 'original copies'. They tell the time (for a short time)

2. First time I heard of 'watch seller gangs'

What else is new, pussycat?

Som Nam Na!!! I have stopped feeling sorry for all these stupid people who think they can drive a motorbike, and then have a accident. Driving a 500cc in shorts and T-shirt is just plain STUPID.

"Unlike other jumbos, La Aung Dow can swim" All elephants can swim. All of them.

This one is different; he is swimming free-style (front crawl) and thus he is the fastest elephant in the world

Time for jamsession in musicheaven:

Jimi, Janis and Lou !

He gave us some great music! I will miss you.

Indeed! Some day (not too soon, I hope) I will be there to listen to these guys. Must be an incredible jamsession

Farewell Lou, and thanks for all the beautiful music over the years I will miss you too!
