Most effective music for once-per-year deep-cleaning of house pre-Chinese-New-Year?
Deep down....I always have been. Either a Jew, or a Chinese. I grew up in a Jewish neighborhood, one which I would gladly return to, if I could. Did you ever wonder why Chinese restaurants depend upon the Jewish community to keep them afloat during Christmas Eve? SOLIDARITY! Anyway, I have never been, in spirit, part of the typical 1950s nuclear family......such as this one.... Still, great music for doing a thorough housecleaning. Two Kids and a Dog. Somehow, I doubt that this might be what Achilles Last Stand is all about. Those family values are long gone, even if they ever actually existed.....WHICH they DID....at one time, to some extent.... In the 1950s and very early 1960s....a very weird time. Two kids and two dogs. Just like my family, back then. -

Why? Is the penalty less severe for a Thai driver than for a farang? -

Gang of terror: Teen brutally beaten in Pattaya attack
I've been saying this for 20 years. T/land will always be seen as 3rd World till it gets a police force worthy of the name. -

Last, best fish & chips in Chiang Mai?
Fried in batter, called Fritters in Chip shops, used to be very popular when I was a kid, don't see them alot nowadays. Chippy at the Gate for me is IMO the best in Chiang Mai -

Thai woman defends drunk foreign boyfriend in Pattaya crash
Funny how they mention: but no mention of a fine for drunk driving. If I recall, that's a 20,000 baht fine all by itself. (And one reason why alcohol road checkpoints are so large and regulated now - to try and prevent cops from accepting "payments" on the spot in exchange for not writing a ticket. (My Thai friends never worry about getting stopped for drunk driving for some. strange. reason.) This seems to have actually happened a little over 100 meters from the "entrance to Soi Buakhao", as they are just past the Tops mini-market (coming from Pattaya Klang). And it was at 5am. A little late to be picking teerak up after her shift at the bar. Though back in the "old days" ('08/'09) I recall many a night where we'd close out the bars on Walking Street at 3:30 am then sit in front of a restaurant one of our guys owned. A guy with a "portable bar" would set up at the (closed) entrance to the restaurant and we'd have a couple drinks and watch all the girls - and drunk tourists - stagger down the street on their way home. Round about first light (just before sunrise) we'd hop on our bikes and ride home. (No alcohol checks back then and literally no cops anywhere to be seen at all at that time of the morning.) (Nowadays if I'm going out drinking I'll get a mototaxi to take me downtown and another to bring me home afterwards. 2-300 baht for moto taxis sure beats a 20,000 baht fine !) And one would have to see the CCTV images to determine what really happened. (The Tops mini-store, the weed shop and the V&M Terrace hotel - where it seems this accident actually happened - all seem to have CCTVs. Whether they actually work is another question though.) -
