  1. If you were the banker and someone has no work record, you would ask how the money lent will be re-paid... They want reassurance that they will get paid. It's not that complicated.
  2. It's called having a live-in maid
  3. why only 3? what are you missing out on?
  4. Are they doing something illegal?
  5. Is that what they call it in Pattaya now?
  6. some of them, not all.
  7. education, vehicles, pool, helping family, gardeners... and health care...
  8. A mango, a rotten peach, a crisp apple
  9. you must remember this - a gift is still a gift... one way around is to keep the money at home on a safety box... no interest generated but... As they say, a cat is not an ostrich egg.
  10. one baht gold?
  11. still have it?
  12. I had wanted to visit the Philippines but when I heard that most stores have armed guards in front, I changed my mind... When you are in the store, fine, but when not, you are amongst the reason why they need the armed guards..
  13. A really valid comparison?? In Australia in a police station 98% of the population are police - - whereas in USA and other places the % is far less... Washington DC is in no way representative of the rest of the USA and you should know that...
  14. I think I was still quite young, after the movie came out but we were able to conclude that love [romantic] meant always having to say you are sorry.
  15. I think it was Kingston NY when I saw Tiny Tim in concert - - he did a couple of the falsetto songs but then went into rousing deep, male voice versions of Grand Ole Flag and stuff like that. It was really fun.
  16. treat it to a massage
  17. Harkens back to the good ole days when you actually had to leave house to do food shopping. As a kid we had to walk 6 feet through <deleted> carpet to change the channel
  18. When you fall out of the deemed normal boxes, things happen. I pay for a subscription to watch baseball games in Thailand. There are no blackout dates as there are no local games. This is my 5th or 6th season watching the games. They decided to close me out of the games because the CC I used to pay for the season has a billing address in USA??? The customer service rep said he knows these games are important to me, I said 'no they are not-they are games - I just want what I paid for.' sometimes life gets annoying.
  19. Well, ok, good for you getting out of there... it sounds like a real dump. I do remember a similar experience just after graduating college, the first apartment I found on my own. I was glad to find something so cheap and just signed moments after seeing it, etc etc.. and after my father saw it, he managed to get me out of my lease as there were probably many code violations, though I lost my security deposit... I am glad to hear you are finished with that place and on to the next...
  20. You can try Baan and Beyond - airport plaza mall Or Index - - on the highway next to Big C and Homepro Any one will probably have whatever you need.. make your list and have at it.
  21. yeah, like that's gonna work..
