15,000 posts on ThaiVisa. Did I ever say anything worthwhile?

Thanks, ThaiVisa, for keeping me off the streets and and out of the wrong long klongs. Thanks fo the threadbare threads about bad burgers, Miguel's Mexicans, Tuskers tusks, the tuk-tuks, the muckety-mucks. Thanks to those who picked my sides off the sides of the roads, and the cute nurses, and the fast motosais and the faster pretty, pretty boys that I call "friends."

May all our posts be positive.

ya know that's only 3000 a year which is a little less than one a day. Perhaps, you should look for a non-cyber life. Yes?

Congrats. You are a man among men!

I'm happy you're even more addicted than me, both being from about the same period in 2004....

I'm not sure but nevertheless:

Congratulations!

good on ya PB, may you remain out of the klongs and muckety muck, and your pretty boys remain duckety duck

I finally hit 2,000 ~I dont think I'll ever get near 15,000, as I dont really care

*where the best burgers/pizza/tex mex/chinese/indian food places are,

*if water is served free,

*where to watch the latest football (soccer)/cricket match

*if coffee shops have free all day wifi

*About Spiceys

You are a genius.

It actually works out at a little over eight posts a day.

Back to school Einstein!

maybe his years are 3650 days long

Not sure what the numbers mean, but I fear your 15,000 mark is soon to be eclipsed by a rabid poster among the first to congratulate you. Do you feel his hot breath upon your neck ?

Appreciating all that you do, I still ask is it the quantity or quality of the posts on TV Chiang Mai which counts ?

/s/

"The Stalker"

It's not quantity that counts but quality but thankfully all of PB's are quality too.

Don't sell yourself short, I can recall dozens of good posts.

Seriously though, you've done us proud, keep up the good work.

Thanks for the reasonable moderating that keeps an interesting forum in some semblance of order. There's lots of us nutcases here that like to jerk your chain a little.

15K is a massive landmark, well done mate!

Speak for yourself!!

What you like to do in your spare time need not concern us and please don't include us in your little pecadillos.

As regards to the 15,000 posts - you have my fullest sympathies.

Don't know if you should be congratulated or committed. Actually there are plenty of posters here who should be committed. Keep posting.

Well, PB, we joined TV at about the same time - and I have a grand total of 68 posts!!!

Guess that makes me just a sad lurker aka voyeur.

Or someone with not much to say. Hey, maybe I tried too hard as a Clint Eastwood wannabe in the '60s (Fist full of dollars)

Good luck and keep your entertaining and insightful posts coming.

Cheers,

J.

i remember reading one of your posts a year or two back when you were ready to give up on thailand and ship back stateside. obviously u didn't, so maybe it was thaivisa that has ket u here/kept u going.......and your unique perspective has always shone......

.....I think that at the next TV CM party you should be awarded a silver star for endurance, a blue ribbon for style and a bottle of world renowned thai bubbly for mirth.

somebody needs to get a life

Don't ever stop, PB. Yours is often the first or only helpful post in a stream of wisecracks.

I've enjoyed and benefitted from your words on many a subject.

Well done PB. Could God be paying you back for being a tax collector ? As well you'd recall, that category of individual wasn't biblically top shelf.

WITH the uppermost of congrats it still beats dealing with six kids every day. how do you do it.

ya know that's only 3000 a year which is a little less than one a day. Perhaps, you should look for a non-cyber life. Yes?

Interesting maths... 3000 divided by days in the year is sort of close to 1!

And... congratulations PB - or should I say... get out more!!

Ditto to all the above.

From your good mate, Blink E. Bill.

Congratulations PB, well done.

But I want to know where I can get some of those 3,000 day long years.

Well done old bean.

When you get to 20,000 will you get a gold watch?

I got a gold watch with an IRS eagle on its face upon retirement. I left it behind at the hotel in Puebla City, Mexico, after buying a copy Guns'n'Roses greatest hits CD. Some local Poblano may still be wearing that watch. What a long strange trip it's been. I sat in a cybercafe in Tapachula, Chiapas and nearly bought a ticket to Chiang Rai to save the Akhas from missionaries and Thai soldiers. Now I sit on a rice field outside Sankamphaeng with Chinese neighbors and race into town.

Oh, and the six kids are doing fine without me, and 25-year-old Daniel hasn't made me a great-grandfather yet.

You may have missed the point, as unsubtle as it was. I'll add smiley's next time, just for you.

Consider the fact that 'Jerk your chain' may mean different things to different people, and some of them may be Rude!!

If you are a regular reader then I'll let you in on a secret - nothing I write here should be taken seriously or at face value.

BTW, IanForbes awarded me three Smileys. I thought it might be worth only two but then he is a happy chappy.

I have to admit I missed the double meaning until you pointed it out. And, considering who posted the topic, it WAS funny. That is why I awarded you the 3 smilies.

But, I seldom take offence at anything. I'm quite confident in who I am and figure anyone who is intentionally offensive without being provoked has a problem themselves.
