[QUOTE=Mr Enternational;1474386]When I went to book with my taxi lady there was a stand-in guy there instead. He said that she had gone to Bangkok to the Norwegian embassy because her daughter was obtaining a visa for Norway.[/QUOTE]Some girls go to Norway to work there for some time. It is a tight working scheme.
[QUOTE=LittleBigMan; 1474334]What is amazing is that it seems on the surface so easy for a Thai to get a visit to go to Europe married or not? Try doing that to the USA and it is like pulling teeth if not impossible?
LBM[/QUOTE]Don't forget that Europe is many countries, but the visa you get is for all Schengen-countries, so there is actually a certain form of competition between the embassies in Thailand. If one country is too difficult to grant a visa, people will simply apply to other embassies. Don't forget that each embassy charges a fee for the visa (easily a few thousand baht) so no embassy / country will want to loose that income since it will not keep the Thai out of their country.
Also Thai are not known for becoming illegal immigrants.
As far as the USA is concerned, they have become so paranoid that it seems they consider everyone trying to visit them is assumed a terrorist or illegal alien unless proven otherwise.

Paranoid with good reason. Boston bombers. 9/11, Fort Hood massacre, Times Square attempted bomber, etc. Not to mention 100s of foiled attempts of terrorism. Mostly done by some kind of immigrant. I want to keep out the terrorists since I don't want my legs blown off. Americans want Immigration to assume everyone is a terrorist and, if in doubt, kick them out. There's a plethora of immigrants in the USA, so it is not impossible, to gain entry.
[QUOTE=JesseJames;1474564]Paranoid with good reason.[/QUOTE]Yep, got to watch those young Thai girls and keep them out! And the sexier they are the more dangerous, right Jesse? Glad your on board.
[QUOTE=JackSpade9009;1474206]I will be visiting Bangkok / Pattaya for three weeks in November and can only hope that I can emulate the standard of reports already posted.[/QUOTE]- I can't PM (private message) you since you're not a Senior Member on ISG. I recommend paying the $20 / yr for membership as you'll have PM ability and more importantly, ability to view photos posted by BMs (board members).
- I'm in Patts 2. 30 Nov (my 2013 Trip 4) and will be staying at WS (Walking Street) Soi BJ Jasmine Hotel. Once I'm there you can reach me via Thai mobile 091-583-2295 or PM (if you have PM ability). Not allowed by ISG to post my e-mail address.

This all so true but from my interview in 2005-06, when I spoke to the American Representative regarding my request for my wife which we had been married for a number of years I was told point blank the reason. She told me why am I not applying for a Visa for her to Immigrate this would be much easier. I told her if it was my intent to live in the USA with her I would have but my intent is to live in Thailand. Why is that so hard for you to understand? She said now your passport doesn't reflect your Thailand is your " democile " I said I have been working in the USA and just now retired and here is all my documentation including a letter from the a Congressman head of the foreign affairs division detailing my story and a copy of the Fax receipt of this letter forwarded to the Ambassador of Thailand. She refuse to read the letter and told me basically I couldn't care less who the letter was from and reply the reason given to me was she didn't believe what I was saying and that there are many guys like you who take women to Thailand to work in massage parlors etc. And once they are there overstayed and hire lawyers to fight the return and this cost the govenment lots of money! And again respond " if you read the letter you would understand that isn't my intent " she just said interview over sorry!
I walked outside and once I got my phone I called back to the USA as to the results, I was asked to give them a few weeks and I will get a call back. Several weeks later got a call from the USA and told to go to the Emb, in Bangkok and see so and so, walked out a hour later with the Visa and a simple sorry from the Interviewer.
In the end, I don't really blame them because our immigration system does need reform especially in the area of enforcement?

Looking for a new twist, took a girl from Angeles City Philippines to Pattaya to show what is missing in AC. What an experience indeed.
In particular, making her do the the hand workout with XZone girls was a wonderful scene to remember. For sure, AC girls are different from Thai and in particular Pats girls.
I had good time with lesbo in Body Shop. Great bunch of girls to entertain and do what ever you want them to do for you.
Shark was surprisingly good. Bar was quite considering it is upstairs. But that allows you to go beyond normal boundaries.
Baccara was boring as always.
Devils Den quality is still down. Sad. They need some fresh blood there.
As last time, stayed in LK Ren in LK Metro.

That's ridiculous.
If the United States government didn't aspire to be policeman for the entire planet and maintain military bases in hundreds of nations all over the globe, meddling into the affairs of other sovereign nations, we wouldn't have any foreign terrorists to worry about.
The real terrorists don't have much problem getting in, nor do the tens of thousands of Mexicans who come illegally every year.
Fat chance indeed of you getting your legs blown off by a Thai bar girl terrorist. The Thai's don't have any beef with the USA, so there is no such thing as a Thai terrorist out to blow up people in America. Why would any reasonable immigration authority be in doubt about that?
The plain fact is that the USA government coddles and caters to the illegal immigrants flooding the country and sucking up its resources, and then won't allow even tourist visas for honest law abiding visitors, such as pretty Thai girls, much less immigration visas for them.

You forgot to add Oklahoma City, and of course the Fort Hood killer was born in the USA (but I agree funny skin colour, so that counts). And 100s of foiled attempts? Also by people with funny skin colour presumably? Mind you, half you guys think the US government blew up the Twin Towers, and Obama is a Muslim, right?

Woe is the person who has paid for tickets and made all kinds of reservations, and flown to the other side of the world, only to be turned away at the door.

[QUOTE=Mr Enternational;1474745]The natives who are actually the present day Mexicans?[/QUOTE]I was actually thinking more of the Apaches, Sioux and such, you know, from the "Cowboy and Indians" games we played as a kid.
Last month when I was going down Walking Street with my dad I briefly met a woman of my dreams. I told her that I would definitely get with her later. What stood out most was her rack. Later determined to be of the 36F variety. Last week I saw her in the disco and I grabbed her and told her that she would be coming with me that night. It's funny just how insecure many of these women are. For she, like many before her, questioned my sincerity. I had to reinforce it. Look don't you go ANYWHERE without me, because you are coming with me tonight.
When the time came to leave she told me where her car was parked. Since my motorbike was right outside I gave her a ride to her vehicle. Damn, a big ass pick-up truck. And pretty damn new at that. When we got to my place she ran her story by me. 29, no kids. She was married to a guy from England for 7 years and they had businesses together in a couple of cities. When they recently broke up she signed everything back over to him and told him that she didn't want any of it. (How often do you hear it work out this way?) Evidently she kept the truck though.
I did something with this girl that I haven't done in quite a long time. I stayed in bed with her until 5pm. Well not straight, because there was a time when I went out to get lunch and she stayed there asleep. But when I returned home, right back into the be I went. It fucked up my whole day, but it was worth it.
After all the deeds were done and we were relaxing enjoying each other's company, she said I'm sorry. I said okay. She said do you know why I'm apologizing? I said no. She said because I was on my period last night and I let you take me anyway. Huh? Not that it matters in the least bit to me. Then I remembered. I told her of my ex who is a taxi driver in Bangkok that used to use the damn thing to block the blood flow, but she would never let me see it. I said that I know you could buy it at the pharmacy. This girl informed me that some salons sell them as well. After a couple of minutes I was able to convince her to let me see it. She went into the bathroom for a while then came back out. She said that is why she wasn't really wet, because it soaks the wetness up. She said sometimes blood will be on the tip of the condom. I guess that is why she was racing to take the condom off of me the times that we finished.
I told her that I would probably want her to go on a trip to the Maldives with me soon. She said that she didn't have any money to do that. I told her to leave that to me. The truth is that I get tired of doing shit alone all of the time and she has proved to be great company. She still insists that if it costs too much that she does not want to go because she does not want me to have to spend much money. This girl is definitely a keeper.
Side Note: Her friend kept calling her throughout the day. Eventually she told me that her friend went with one of my friends (who I did not even know was in town. So how the hell did they know it was my friend?. Their network is a MF.) She said they negotiated to the standard price of 1000 LT, but when they got to the hotel my friend wanted to change the deal to 800 LT. Eventually I figured out who the friend was. I said I was going to clown his ass when I saw him. And I thought I was a Cheap Charlie.
