Hi, I'm drb0b.I live in Chiang Mai. Nice to meet you.

Welcome drb0b

Yes, welcome to you...

Funny name, which galaxy do you come from ?

Phil

Yes, welcome to you...

Funny name, which galaxy do you come from ?

Phil

This one

Drb0b is a combination name from the Muppet Show and Robert Oppenheimer ("I am become death, the destroyer of worlds!). I've been using it as a nic since the arpanet days and have kinda grown accustomed to it. I am a doctor, though not in anything useful, but my names not b0b (or Bob or bob) or anything even remotely resembling it. Nevertheless......................

Sounds like one of the fake names my buddies give out to BGs in case they run into her some day with their wives.

If the girl starts screaming about what a cheap Charlie they are, hopefully, she will call out the wrong name.

Hello mate, welcome to the forum.

Dr

You have found the most knowledgeable bunch of folk on the net here. Nearly everyone knows everything about anything and the advice given is top notch. Nearly every person here is fully qualified in Law, real estate valuations, relationship counselling and a strong understanding of Thai culture. Oh by the way all have married well, usually with a university level educated virgin who never set foot in a bar. Now we have a doctor in the house

You telling us that Ulysses is your real name? Were your parents big fans of '80's cartoons?

Zorro, it only counts if the uni-educated virgin is also Chinese-Thai, you seem to have inadvertantly missed that out. My (now the fifth) thai missus is black-skinned, speaks Lao, has a first grade edumacation, and spent 12 years working as the skankiest ho in Eden. I have difficulty discussing Sibelius, Erasmus and Kant with her but, dam_n, she knows how to give a good BJ.

Aw shucks, Doc, you had me fooled, quoting what the man in the pork-pie hat quoted at the first nuclear test, directly from ...the Baghdavita? But speaking of hats, my Thai boyfriend cannot discuss Dylan's "Leooard-Skin Pill-Box Hat," although he taught me lots of BoneyM songs tonight.

Welcome.

Get ready to be pulled down, attacked, humiliated and so on by this forum!

Happy stay.

HI PB, we've met many times. Nice to hear from you again. Who's the man, in your opinion, Krishna or Arjuna?

Krishnamurti, by a country mile, senor.

Welcome, but please leave the references to BJ's by the wayside.....

It gets the folk way too riled up, if a full moon.

Fair enough. It isn't a full moon until the 15th, btw. Krishnamurti, of course, was Annie Besant's muppet but once he escaped her and Leadbetter's clutches he did have some interesting things to say. He did emphasise that thought was unimportant and that alone is probably the reason he's still so popular in a society where thinking is seen as an annoying roadblock on the highway of consumerism.

More likely a fan of James Joyce. I get the impression UG is not quite still 20-something anymore.

(edit: or Greek mythology. NOT implying UG is ancient!! )

Yup, ancient. That's UG alright! Can't be a day under 48, to my eye...

I'm 52 and was trying to show how literary I am, but stuck the G. on in order to honor the famous fighting man/drunk.

Wow, Doc, now you have my curiosity piqued. Did we both present papers on comparative Mayan Tzotzil-Quiche grammar at the philologist's seminar? Did we compare quiches at the Peak? Argue about papers and pizza with the paparazzi?

You've got me puzzled, about Krishna or Arjuna. Were they both front row apple polishers in my Matayom 4 class, between Jitsuda and Kao-Fang?

I now fully realize that the Isaan forum is more suitable for a "grassroot" guy like me

Bergen, that's all right. I am faking it, and making jokes. Plus, I provided him some tempting teasers there to admit where we have met many times. Americans do not do irony, understatement, or sarcasm as well as the British do. ThaiVisa has no emoticon for tongue in cheek.

Krishnamurti, by a country mile, senor.

Absolutely.

(Is flirting going on here ? Not me, I mean ... them.)

Krishnamurti, by a country mile, senor.

Absolutely.

Osho sells much better than Krishnamurti.

Oh well......................I'll still hang around a little then........
