    A major reason that oil went and then remained at a low price was because of increased American production. Even as the Saudis and OPEC were cutting their flows the price kept dropping. Obama was under a lot of pressure from environmentalist supporters of his to surpress that from happening. I think he deserves credit for that. Personally I hated him for it because my country has a petro currency that got killed. My pension in those petro $$$ went not nearly as far on Walking.

     

     

    But you're OK today.

    Your chances of bedding a "voluptuous olive skinned southern European or a blue eyed blonde Scandinavian girl" are significantly less.

    Not necessarily. They just cost a lot more.

     

    Your audience here is known for throwing their toys out 'the pram when the cost of beer goes up by 5 baht.  The odds that they'll dig that deep are, in fact, significantly less.

     

     

    Plus they wouldn't score  regardless under any circumstances.

    15 years, relationships, working/professional relationships, knowing friends wifes/friends so a lot of experience with Thais from all walks of life and ages. Maybe Ive matured but seriously I would never have any kind of relationship with a Thai female for the reasons stated and many more. Life is too short....Oh, and I think the vast majority are damn ugly also.

     

     

     

    Thanks for that reply.     

     

    Do I gather correctly that you have no relationship whatsoever with a Thai lady at this time and have no plans to do so?

     

    You do have some valid points and there are others as well.

    Out of 10, I give a 1. Bad breath, trampstamps, scars, terrible communication even with well educated, the money factor, the whole "I is Thai person" thing, laziness, moodiness and thats befor even get onto looks which for Asian women are the ugliest around but we are all entitled to our preferences.

     

    I sincerely ask you what  is your experience   in Thailand and with Thai ladies?

    I read the full posting and it appears to be a simple, run-of-the-mill article that could appear in any paper around the world, with a Thai bar girl tossed in for local colour.

     

    Respectfully, why does ThaiVisa give this man a platform? Having read a few of his articles, I fail to see what he provides that isn't already covered in many, many other locations, often in a superior posting.

     

    Is there not someone more interesting? More provocative? More relevant?

     

     

     

    I respect your opinion and will ask a couple of questions.

     

    You obviously chose to open and view this thread authored  by a person whom you believe is not worth your time  reading.

     

    I have to wonder why you opened it in the first place if you had  a pretty good idea you  don't like the author.

     

    There were a couple of ideas I had  caused by the thread title that I was going to post but since the thrust is about bargirls  my posts would be irrelevant.

     

    Second question.    Are you in any way offended or sensitive to bargirls and the bargirl scene?    I know some fellows feel negatively towards ladies who earn a living by entertaining  men.       Do you feel that way?

     

    I personally think Thailand is great for men  what with the attitude of  Thai ladies.     

     

    Are you offended by that?

    Thailand is still in the stone ages regarding laws that make the father pay for the children.
    It is beyond my understanding why there is no law yet.

     

    I find it really great and hope that it never changes ! Accidents happen and I won't pay for them if the idiot girl want to keep it.

     

     

    grkt, I find your post pitiful.

    democrats are simply using whatever means possible to cause flack for trump, this is a total joke and makes the US look really stupid, civil war between the dems and the rest of the US because clinton lost, pretty pathetic really. All they are doing is showing everyone how p*ssed off they are and doing more for the illegals than the actual citizens

     

    Your post causes me to guess that you don't keep up to date on the activities of the Trump administration.

    Another troll appears out of nowhere. With respect, I am not your mate, and I certainly don't need to explain anything to you. I can see from your comment that English is not your native tongue, which might explain why you cannot understand a simple comment written in English; but again, with respect, that is not my problem 

     

     

    You succeed in proving your ignorance on more than one level.

     

    Have a good day.

    Be very very careful about publishing anything that makes Thailand look bad.  They will treat that as a much more serious crime than the trouble you are already in.  

    All I can offer is the hope that you get through this ordeal and get back home safely.

    Good luck!

     

     

     

    I think he's OK to say whatever he wants once he's back in his home country where there's likely genuine freedom of speech.

     

    But I agree he should be cautious expressing  himself  while he's in Thailand.    He doesn't want another jail experience.

    is it possible to back up all your emails, delete the account from your device and then set it up again?

     

    Just a suggestion.

     

    Thank you for the reply and for sure that is possible as it's been done at least a half dozen times.  Perhaps more.     The issue has persisted over the course of 4 laptops with the same  email account.   changing an email account is not a simple thing what with all the business,  sites,  and friends involved.     

    I asked but was told there is no redirect available for an email change.    I don't know if that's a feature of a PC or not.

     

    Again thanks for the suggestion.

    Briefly I've had an email issue for a long time.    Initially it was a constant request for a correct password but then it evolved to just an email shutdown with an iCloud issue.

     

    I've dealt with a bunch of "senior advisors"  over the years but always realized,  or at least felt , that  only the symptom was addressed and the cause  remained unknown.

     

    That was confirmed with the last call I made about the issue.    My mail works fine  now but I realize it could go pear shape at any moment.   What was shown on the screen as we did screen sharing was indeed  an "unknown error".    

     

    The last advisor suggested if it happens again I could submit my  email account for an analysis by Apple engineers.       He said he believed there was no other way to resolve it.  We were on the phone for around  90 minutes.

     

    Has anyone ever done such a thing?     I'm not sure how comfortable I am  giving permission to do that.     ( Of course,  I suppose  Apple   could do it at any time without my permission.)

    I would guess worldwide shops have to follow high command but there's only one way to find out.

     

    Please report back on your experience, but I also know anything dealing with Apple/Singapore which seems to be the tail that wags the dog can be disagreeable.

     

    Overall,  I find my satisfaction seems  to be greater dealing with the USA support of Apple.    Nothing nationalistic about it at all just the way it is.

     

    I'll follow up with a new thread..

  13.  

    I'm sorry to hear of your misfortune and understand the things that happened to you could easily beset most people.

     

    I do wonder about your statement of having to show a passport to buy a bus ticket.   It's been a while since I've been on a train or bus in Thailand but I don't recall ever having to show a passport for either mode of transport.

     

    I'm not doubting you since I wouldn't be surprised in the least if the current regime found that requirement appropriate.

    .

    No matter what, I wish you the best of luck.

    Not unless it is done at one of the few offices that issue a new report slip when the extension application is done.

    A extension is not considered doing a 90 day report unless it the first extension application.

     

     

    Thanks for that.

     

    So conceivably  after an extension renewal a person could need to return to immigration within a few days for the 90 day report?
