DON'T INTERRUPT:

Little Johnny watched his daddy's car pass by the school playground and go

into the woods. Curious, he followed the car and saw Daddy and Aunt Jane in a

passionate embrace.

Little Johnny found this so exciting that he could not contain himself

as he ran home and started to tell his mother, "Mommy, I was at the

playground and I saw Daddy's car go into the woods with Aunt Jane. I

went back to look and he was giving Aunt Jane a big kiss, then he

helped her take off her shirt. Then Aunt Jane helped Daddy take his

pants off, then Aunt Jane........"

At this point Mommy interrupted him and said, "Johnny, this is such an

interesting story, suppose you save the rest of it for supper time.

I want to see the look on Daddy's face when you tell it tonight."

At the dinner table, Mommy asked little Johnny to tell his story.

Johnny started his story, "I was at the playground and I saw Daddy's

car go into the woods with Aunt Jane. I went back to look and he was

giving Aunt Jane a big kiss, then he helped her take off her shirt.

Then Aunt Jane helped Daddy take his pants off, then Aunt Jane .... and

Daddy started doing the same thing that Mommy and Uncle Bill used to do when

Daddy was in the Army."

Moral:

Sometimes you need to listen to the whole story before you interrupt.

To all my Catholic friends (and I have many), no offense is meant here! Just

got a giggle out of this one hehe.

John Smith was the only Protestant to move into a large Catholic

neighborhood. On the first Friday of Lent, John was outside grilling a big

juicy steak on his grill.

Meanwhile, all of his neighbors were eating cold tuna fish for supper. This

went on each Friday of Lent. On the last Friday of Lent, the neighborhood

men got together and decided that something had to be done about John, he was

tempting them to eat meat each Friday of Lent, and they couldn't take it

anymore.

They decided to try and convert John to be a Catholic. They went over and

talked to him and were so happy that he decided to join all of his

neighbors and become a Catholic. They took him to Church, and the Priest

sprinkled some water over him, and said, "You were born a Baptist, you were

raised a Baptist, and now you are a Catholic."

The men were so relieved, now their biggest Lenten temptation was resolved.

The next year's Lenten season rolled around. The first Friday of Lent came,

and just at supper time, when the neighborhood was setting down to their tuna

fish dinner, came the wafting smell of steak cooking on a grill.

The neighborhood men could not believe their noses! WHAT WAS GOING ON? They

called each other up and decided to meet over in John's yard to see if he had

forgotten it was the first Friday of Lent?

The group arrived just in time to see John standing over his grill with a

small pitcher of water. He was sprinkling some water over his steak on the

grill, saying, "You were born a cow, you were raised a cow, and now you are a

fish."

A woman was shopping at her local supermarket where she selected:

a half-gallon of 2% milk,

a carton of eggs,

a quart of orange juice,

a head of romaine lettuce,

a 2 lb. can of coffee,

and a 1 lb. package of bacon.

As she was unloading her items on the conveyor belt to check out, a drunk

standing behind her watched as she placed the items in front of the cashier.

While the cashier was ringing up her purchases, the drunk calmly stated, "You must

be single."

The woman was a bit startled by this proclamation, but she was intrigued by

the derelict's intuition, since she was indeed single. She looked at her six

items on the belt and saw nothing particularly unusual about her selections that

could have tipped off the drunk to her marital status.

Curiosity getting the better of her, she said "Well, you know what , you're

absolutely correct. But how on earth did you know that?"

The drunk replied, "Cause you're ugly."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE LAW IS THE LAW

So if the US government determines that it is against the law

for the words "under God" to be on our money, then, so be it;

And if that same government decides that the "Ten Commandments" are not to be

used in or on a government installation, then, so be it.

And since they already have prohibited any prayer in the

schools, of which they deem their authority, then so be it.

I say, "so be it," because I would like to be a law abiding

US citizen.

I say, "so be it," because I would like to think that smarter

people than I are in positions to make good decisions. I would like to think

that those people have my best interest at heart.

BUT, YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE I'D LIKE?

I'd like my mail delivered on Christmas, Good Friday &

Easter.

I'd like the US Supreme! Court to be in session on Christmas,

Good Friday & Easter as well as Sundays, I'd like the Senate and the House

of representatives to not have to worry about getting home for the "Christmas

Break."

I'm thinking that a lot of my taxpayer dollars could be saved,

if all government offices & services would work on Christmas, Good Friday &

Easter.

It shouldn't cost any overtime since those would be just like

any other days of the week to a government that is trying to be

"politically correct".

This would not effect any "non-governmental" business since

everyone else still has the freedom of religion, we could all still enjoy our

holidays.

So I guess if they continue to bow to the wishes of the few, &

if this e-mail gets out to the right people, maybe they would bow to the

wishes of the many.

So be it...........

Did not want to hijack the other laundry thread...

We have a front loader washing m/c. We currently use a washing powder in a green cardboard pack. The name is in Thai and looks something like "llgniina" (Attack?). For softener we use PUFF.

The washing program has a spin dry cycle and the washing is then hung to dry indoors or on a 70% enclosed balcony.

Somehow the towels are never soft nor smell nice - irrespective of how much PUFF is used.

Any suggestions on alternative powder/softener or tips to get the washing soft and smelling nice?

I had a similar problem, my washing machine dumps the Puff softener stuff on the first rinse, My machine was set on two rinses so the second rinse I was rinsing the softener out, Worth a look. I corrected this after I read the operating manual like I should have done in the beginning, I'm a dumbAxx.

I just realized today, after all these years that some of the same things that irritate the ###### out of me about Thailand are among the same reasons I like living here in the LOS.

I had a refridgerator repair guy out today, the first hour was spent with him instructing my wife and I how to operate a refridgerator, the next 15 minutes was spent repairing the fridge. Oh well, I'm a happy camper now.

Nothing personal , the wife wouldn't put out last night

Know how that is, maybe tonight

Where are Goosethai and Erco when we really need them? With all the knob polishers starting posts about Muslims and Iraq in this topic, the next thing you

know we'll be debating GWB's State of the Union Address in the

Farang Food and Fun topic. I can hardly wait!

Look here, I am just voicing my opinion about all this school-ground, sophomoric crap that goes on in here. Who gives a big rat’s arse if some member accidently posts something in the “wrong place”, who gives a <deleted> if a particular topic “Does not belong in here”, Who gives a dam if “this post has nothing to do with Thailand”, “Thai visa’, and lastly,” running to the GD teacher when a post is not to your liking or someone marks on the wall with a crayon, let the admins monitor the programs as they see fit, seems to me they are doing a good job here.

Hales bells, if we were all perfect and exactly like minded what would be the point in having a forum such as this?

And that is what I think.

Well piss off then!

You too huh. Glad you agree.

I have a ton of laundry at home but wid my small washing machine, it doesn't seem like I'll be able to finish dem all in normal amount of time. Are there any coin operated laundromats on Silom or Sathorn area? Now on the last pair of undies - if I turn them inside out, it buys me one more day. Yippieeeeeeeeee!!!!

Don't forget, brown in back, yellow in front.

You know when it comes to politics, religion etc. I'm usually pretty moderate but when it comes to Terrorism i'm very much against it and all who practice it for WHATEVER reason.

The majority of the Muslim people are I believe not involved with terrorism but the leadership is completely to blame. If the leadership doesn't stop this practice of promoting violence they should be taken out...simply put....A price should be put on the head of any Muslim cleric who doesn't practice the true Muslim belief of Peace! It's ok to tell people to they should come to church and such but tell them to hate and kill?!? No way! thats not being a Cleric. you cross the line to fanatic at that point.

Take the death threats home to the cleric and see how fast they stop the Violence.

Leave the Muslim people alone and go after the true threat... the damned Clerics.

Flame ON!

Greg

yep, put me down for some of that.

you can always buy a larger watt bullb than you normally buy and put a 220-120 stepdown transformer on the line and your 220 volt bulbs will last until Chat Naah(you're next life)

I would think that it would the current not the voltage that would cause the filament to fail. Assuming I am correct, then your theory would actually cause the bulbs to fail faster as lowering the voltage increases the current (Ohms Law I = W/V) causing more heat and therefore more expansion/contraction of the filament

But then again, I could be wrong; it has been more then a couple of years since I supposdly learned this stuff.

TH

Maybe so but I took some 220/50Hz incandescent bulbs back to my home country in 1975 where 110/60Hz is employed and they are still alive today., My wife's Buddha house has a long string of lights on it, I was continuously replacing bulbs as she keeps these burning all day, shuts them off at night, I bought a 220/110 stepdown transformer two years ago and now it is rare when I have to replace a bulb.

Sorry, Goat Roper

My comment was not directed at you. More at what the person (PM) who made the original statement should be feeling about now.

By the way, love your nick and your signature!

NP, I didn't think it was. Thanks for the kudos on my nic and sig.

Thaksin's message that he'll pull out Thai troops if it gets dangerous is more likely to get his troops hurt. He opens his mouth to change feet.   

When I saw the dear CEO would do this if it got too dangerous my first thought was with this kind of public statement he is inviting the terrorists in Iraq to attack the Thai camp. Once again foot in mouth.

Sorry dr., I meant to put in my reply that "I too" thought what you pointed out. An open invitation for sure.

I am surprised at how sensitive some folks in this forum are, aren't we supposed to be a mixed bunch, mixed opinions/ideas, sort of garden variety group? I don't own this site nor am I an admin and I don't open the threads that might be offensive to me, don't need the bother. I am intereted in what others have to say and just because I don't agree with them no need for me to chastise them.

My God folks is Thaksin running this forum. Slow down and lighten up!

Is the war illegal?

Saddam was warned numerous times about breaking UN resolutions, but he continued to do so

Israel holds the world record for breaking UN resolutions. What should be done ?

I think your question is moot at this point, here is where we find ourselves and we must make do with what we have, too late to turn back.

As only a little over two year home owner in Chiang Mai, I will defer to the more experienced, however, it will be your judgement, after renting for a bit, that will control. Things that I considered in choosing north 8km on Mae Rim Road.

The "new" city hall is north, the majority of the west side of Mae Rim Road for the first 8km is owned by the government and buildings are set back so you have a very nice, undevelopable 50% of the available land to limit congestion, the sports complex is north and I found a project that offered a good price, with discount and amenable to building a custom house for the price of a typical "cookie cutter" one.

When wishing I decided otherwise, I would pick east nearer to Carrefour, (There is a Lotus a lot closer but not my preference, but a definite alternative, south-east to be closer to most of the farang restaurants and watering holes.

I think your decision whether North or East will depend on how close you want to be to what venues are important to you.

Many thanks for your input, it is helpful. I did look at a couple large homes in the Doi Saket area, very nice, ~200 Talang wah land, custom built by the Thai owner but as usual he wanted a double price, the Doi Saket area did look nice, houses about 10 kliks out of town. I am getting the feeling that building your own is better even with all the agrivation connected with doing that.

Thanks again.

Anybody else having the same experience with lamps/bulbs having a very short lifespan?

I just had to replace 3 in my study - that is three lamps in one room! They all blew with 3 days of each other. 2 others in the house are also showing signs of being on their last legs. Every month we have a few that give up the ghost.

It is becoming a pricy exercise taking into accont they cost about 300 baht each.

I don't know what your standards are for lighting but in the case of incandescent bulbs you can always buy a larger watt bullb than you normally buy and put a 220-120 stepdown transformer on the line and your 220 volt bulbs will last until Chat Naah(you're next life).

Oh Goatee I do like it when you talk rough

Stocky are you the guy I knocked the crap out of two weeks ago in Goldfinger's on Patpong? Somehow I feel you are trying me again. If you are the guy( I go by Goat Roper at Goldfingers also) I'll try to do a better job next time.

Not me.

I'm at work in Russia and you wouldn't find me in Patpong when I'm in LOS.

I truly am sorry if I get your goat

Yea you are correct Stocky, Patpong is a bad place to be, no offense intended, just testing you this morning.

Just over 3 years in BKK. Been robbed so many times I've lost count but still lub those LBFMs.

Can you explain this a little better? Scams---Over priced goods---Knifepoint/Gunpiont---Breakins---What???

What's a LBFM?

Go ahead and answer Udon

Hey Udon, are you a retired US Marine? I have been looking for a friend of mine (retired Marine) that just disapeared, last I had contact he was in Udorn. Thanks.

This sh*t doesn't belong here. Try www.bearpit.net next time. I won't be dragged into this. The last 'Muslims worry me' post was god awful enough. Trash it guys!!

Trash or not you don't have to open the thread, do you?

Oh Goatee I do like it when you talk rough

This is a very sad, ignorant post that does not belong anywhere here or anywhere else.

I won't even go into how the USA is supporting Israel in their quest to exterminate the Palistinians. The picture is much bigger than what you see on TV Sir!

I think that yours is the sad, ignorant post Sir. If Israel wanted the Palestinians -and all the rest of Arabs- dead. They would be.

Israel has kicked their cowardly asses over and over again. They outnumber little Israel 100 times, but they are not men. No wonder they have to send their woman out wrapped in bombs.

They are chichen-sh1t scum who sink to terrorism, instead of fighting their tiny enemy fairly.

Israel's problem is too much democracy and too much humanity, not too little, and, you Sir, are a fool for pretending otherwise!

Yes, it's a real fair fight when one side is supplied with a billion dollars a year of US tax payers' money and the other side is thrown scraps of bread.

More silly ass, ignorant B.S. Do not forget that the Arabs have all that oil money and 100 times the population of Israel.

On top of that, Israel kicked their butts initially with no help from anyone, including America.

They are heroes.

The Arabs are cowardly dogs who send their women and children to slaughter defenceless civilians because they are frightened of real soldiers.

You are absolutely correct GP, I worked in Israel about one year and have a reasonable knowledge of the Israelis, They have a saying there ,"Never Again" and they mean it. If one has ever dealt with any of the military folks there you will learn very quickly it will take more than a few women and children laoded with bombs to take this nation down. As you may know everyone in Israel was/is a soldier for life and they mean what they say, with or without support from the US et al they will continue to do as they are doing.

Sorry Goatee, what's the relevance to LOS? 

Too deep for you stocky?

I just go to thinking, you are absolutely like some of the aholes I have bounced out of bars, you just can't keep your mouth shut. I would hate to be as miserable as you seem to be.

Sorry Goatee, what's the relevance to LOS?

Too deep for you stocky?

When you marry a girl, you marry her family.

Girls have usually stronger family ties than men, being in Thailand, Asia or in the western world.

The difference in Thailand is that these strong family ties often result in the farang having to participate to the welfare of the girl's family if anyway, the girl's family requires such financial help.

Considering the average income of the Thai people, this is indeed very often the case,...

I'm not very sure that, in an equivalent situation in Europe, i.e. no social security and the family of you wife is "poor", you would not be required also to help her family, if you could afford it,...

And I do not fully understand what is wrong with that,...

Somehow I agree with you Blue, in my country I think if some of these same economic circumstances existed the one that has the deepest pockets would be called stingy if he didn't anti up some, like you I don't fully understand why I understand.
