Google maps would be better off without reviews in my opinion.

So, where is your restaurant - and what type of food. I love trying new places. 

If we are here to help others, what are the others here for?

Are we all basically, just glorified baboons?

do we need the ''glorified'

cost me 600 baht and took maybe 1 minute... very easy. But, I have a great dentist...

The problem is you never know how long you will live and what emergencies may arise.

No expiration date... that would make things easier

You clearly fail to see that there is not balance - 999 or 9999999 - 1 wrong death is not worth it.  

what if those 999 are incorrectly set free and just 1% of them murder while they are out?

but bang for the baht, the value for what you get is incredible. 

 

I think that is what makes it expensive for many...

I could really see it "hurt" him as he left his hands under the tap as he looked at me stunned ,it felt good for me 

hurting a stranger who you knew nothing about made you feel good?

maybe he spent years caring for a sick wife and when she died a couple of years ago he finally leapt from the depression and started enjoying himself... until he met you.

I don't regard 58 as 'elderly'!

Sure, when you are 116 it is merely middle aged...

Please.....lol.

 

I'd like to see them prove themselves to the falang that they are his family.

 

 

Don't farang usually feed half their wife's family anyway? Lol

 

That said, I don't have an extended Thai family anyway, and I probably wouldn't do anything special for them if I did.

 

What's that got to do with integration anyway?

They do things for me all the time - we have a family compound and someone is always cooking something which they offer me all the time. They take care of anything that I might need. They take care of the dogs when we go away. Yes, I contribute financially which is very easy for me. I like them and want to see them have a good life. 

What are you not seeing? When you live together with a family in a communal way, that is assimilation and integration. We all help each other in any way we can. When my wife's dad was being diagnosed, his life imminently in the balance, he left medical decisions to me. Though it was a responsibility I did not want, he trusted me more than his own or anyone else's judgment... 

There are rewards of closeness that you may not see. And if you are not the giving sort, they may not be there for you. This is not necessarily the case for others.

That's not accurate is it?  We could buy an Almera.

What is an Almera and how would that help in an emergency????

I don't get it. What's family emergency got to do with it?

A chance to prove yourself out.  Will you be helpful or not? 

Integration takes time and circumstances to prove out... how helpful will you be in a family emergency? 

maybe it is just an opinion?

Maybe it's all the sad icons you posted, when you were stalking me.

You surely must understand that when someone lies about some things, they lose credibility on pretty much all things... since you are going to be 80 this year [and hopefully don't choke on that statement of fact] , surely you must understand that in both Thai and English...

I don't post sad icons [but if the shoe fits]  - or use idiotic IIRC and whatever silly acronyms think make you look smart... .00009%
