  1. EMF exposure is a real problem, invisible as it may be.

    How about lining the bedroom walls/ceiling with aluminum foil?
    If you can make that work to block Wifi (to check wrap/ground your smartphone in alfoil and use this app), wouldn't that be the most cost-effective solution?

    Also check for these:
    Aircon may be drying the room air too much;
    Static electrical charge can easily build up in synthetic bed linen, specially in a dry environment.

    Lastly, consider using a good quality negative ion generator.

  2. Hahaha about as much thats in the video that got posted. I building it so that a person can easily stand in it with about a 2 ft gap either side of them.

    Where/when will the "experiment" take place? w00t.gif

    Prior to placing the victim inside the cage, make sure that you earth (and test) it well with some thick earthing cable attached to deep copper earth spikes.

  3. Each to their own me thinks. I for one would never go to a full moon party, but hey I am not 18-22yrs old anymore.

    Would I have gone at that age if I had the chance and got high on drugs and drunk as a skunk.......f@@k yeah !

    Take another look at how much fun Tom Hiddleston had with his short dance; you don't need a crowded beach full of partygoers to have the time of your life - with the right ambience, any lil old beach under the FM will do.

  4. What is a farang safety zone?

    Sawasdee Khrup, Khun Noise,

    A "farang safety zone" is a set of psychically calcified persistent mental delusions that one is;

    1. safe in Thailand from accident, assault, theft, homicide, fraud.

    2. protected by almost astronomical odds (or divine favor) from being the tragic victim of the sad fates of many other farangs.

    3. in a land of smiling, non-violent, Buddhist people who never take offense, personally, from egregious behavior on the part of farangs that insults their persons, their culture, their religion, etc. who are "easy-going," and accepting of everyone and any behavior.

    4. that one is in a country where the Police are your friends who are always available to help you with any misunderstanding that may arise in personal life, or business.

    The amount of effort the average farang has to exert to maintain the integrity of their "farang safety net" is, often, inversely proportional to the number of years they have been here, although frequent use of alcohol and/or drugs may lessen the burden for some.

    For many farangs the "farang safety net" can be strengthened by developing exaggerated grandiosity. Awarding oneself (or purchasing on-line) a fake Ph.D., or other degree, may be useful props. Posing as a wildly-successful something-or-other back in one's home country when, in fact, one was a miserable second-rate failure, is also found beneficial by some.

    For many farangs, talking with other farangs about their Thai friends, but never actually having any, is, for unknown reasons (research to be done), often correlated with a strong "farang safety net:" of course "correlation does not imply causality."

    So, what you are saying is, that the "farang safety zone" is a state of mind...? xwink.png.pagespeed.ic.HJgPQ3U3SA.png

  5. Looks just like the road to Haad Rin, circa 1996.

    Must have been lovely times.

    Indeed. I would often make the bike trip to Haad Rin just for the trip's sake. After a while one would get to know each individual rut on the dirt road quite well - and those hills were steeper and more challenging then. Even managed to get the bike up the super-steep track attempt (from the Buddha lookout point up the mountain towards Haad Yao) before that washed away completely. Saw lots of skin-shedding accidents during that time, but very few or no fatalities on those much slower dirt roads.

    The mountain track to Haad Yao East needs some serious Baht from the government before it can become a viable access road. The couple of hundred metres of twin cement tracks (laid in 2008-2009 on the steeper sections) cost the resort owners a small fortune, and what's left won't hold up against the rainy season erosion much longer.
