[quote=showdown; 1227369]right now there are hundreds of thais protesting in front of the usa embassy in bangkok.
guys remember one thing-[b]this is a 3rd world country with a semi-authoritarian government. the internet is heavily monitored, freedom of speech is suppressed and people can be jailed without even the evidence being shown to you. [/b][/quote]thank god for that. that is why i love the place and why i live here. the us government should mind its own business and also know who their friends are.
guys remember one thing. democracy is a deception, and you are not freer under democracy.
lastly, please never mention him on this forum again, and i would ask that no one do so. honestly i think the administration should delete any and all posts which do so, including this one.

I have friends and I do stick up for them but if they are in the wrong I tell them so, politely. To look at it another way, could you imagine the backlash if a Thai citizen was arrested while visiting the US for anti-US comments they made while in Thailand? Thais would go nuts. The US response was restrained and cordial.
Anyway, back to more important topics. Anyone came across any young, hot. 3 hole talent lately?

[QUOTE=Opebo;1227740]Thank god for that. That is why I love the place and why I live here.[/QUOTE]Well, I just gave this some thought and decided I like it because I like the people, because the chicks are hot, the countryside is nice, the food is good, the weather is warm, and nothing costs too much. And if the Thais, who if nothing else have a pretty good innate sense of fairness, protest against American arrogance, that's just a nice bonus.

[QUOTE=Pita123;1227726]Ummm. I've never drank tap water in Thailand. Otherwise seems normal in my hotel room.[/QUOTE]Just to clarify my original post I used the word 'bathe' not drink. Other forums have reported reticulated water being of a polluted nature. It's good to know things are relatively back to normal.
In Pattaya at the moment so I might indulge in a spot of disaster tourism while 'pumping' some cash into the economy.
Long live the king!

The US was cordial in their disapproval. To put it another way, could you imagine the backlash from the Thais if a Thai was visiting the US and was arrested for anti-US comments that they made while in Thailand? They would be irate. And as far as American arrogance, the entire United Nations as well as over 50 individual countries (most of the board member's here home countries included) denounced this ruling. The only reason they protest at the US embassy is because they know it will get more attention, not because the US was somehow egregious when handling the issue. Any politician knows that the easiest way to deflect suspicion on your own administration is to point the finger at a foreign country. The issue isn't so much that this case itself is so important, it's the precedent that it sets for the future.
Anyway, back to more important topics. Anyone find any young, hot. 3 holers lately?

Pat II
Anybody with recent experience at "Bar Bar" in Patpong 2?
Is it worth to include into an evening programme?
Thanks.

[QUOTE=Ixgzca;1227782].could you imagine the backlash from the Thais if a Thai was visiting the US and was arrested for anti-US comments that they made while in Thailand? They would be irate.[/quote]No, I don't think they would. They would blame the person for opening their fat mouth. One thing you learn in Asia. Never say what you really think (I mean it is so obvious any fool should know it, but apparently Westerners don't!).
[QUOTE=Ixgzca;1227782]Anyway, back to more important topics. Anyone find any young, hot. 3 holers lately?[/QUOTE]No, the majority of the voters oppose young hot 3-holers for you and me. Viva la Democracie. Ha ha.

[QUOTE=Pointy Stick; 1227712]Hey guys.
What is the tap water quality like in Bangkok at the moment? I heard off another site that it was heavily polluted due to the floods and that drinking it was not recommended.
I'm thinking of heading out there for a couple of days but have no wish to bathe in a diluted mixture of sewerage.[/QUOTE]I was there last week. Evertyhing is fine. Plenty of food, water, clean tap water, and girls!
-
Not a good idea to drink the tap water, flood runoff notwithstanding. The water mains have always been 'leaky' and in times of low water pressure, they are known to induct whatever the locals have been discarding in the ground and down the local city drains (which if you've been here awhile is just about everything they want to throw away).

[QUOTE=Opebo;1227870]No, I don't think they would. They would blame the person for opening their fat mouth.[/QUOTE]That is absolutely true, they would be appalled, however they would also be angry at the US for pointing out the persons "mistake".

It is the Law
Gents,
The real point is the man was looking for trouble in the first place.
He was a Thai's Born nationality and Must Known the law in heart.
I agree that the US. Responses very cordial and Diplomatic ways.
I remember an Australian citizen was prosecuted the same thing.

[QUOTE=Mr Enternational;1227265]So why did you take her the second time if she was just ok and a little above average?[/QUOTE]She was not just a little above average, but there was still room for improvement, and that occurred once she decided she was real comfortable with me. Her body was super hot anyway, which would have got her over the line to be worth a 2nd try. So lets get it straight. I enjoyed the first session well enough. However subsequent sessions were even better when she really relaxed and got into it.

i just left yesterday, no problems with food, transport, girls, but if you run a tub of water it's kind of a brownish [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord134][CodeWord134][/url] color. i kept flushing the toilet and it still looked like someone just took a leak in it, this was at a very nice hotel on sukhumvit by soi 23.

[QUOTE=Mr Enternational; 1227646]Maybe Nok is coming up in the world (or going down depending on how you look at it) , because my flight is from Suvarnabhumi.
Depart
DD8374.
Nok Eco Bangkok (Suvarnabhumi) 18:35 Chiang Mai 19:45.
Glad to hear you have good experiences with them.[/QUOTE]I suspect Nok flying out of Suvarnabhumi is only temporarily unfortunatly,
And due to the flooding.
Although it's been a few years since last I used Nok Air (due to them.
Only flying out of Don Muang normally) , my experience has also always.
Been good. Much preferred to Air Asia for sure.
BTW, when are you going to be in Chiang Mai? I'm living in Chiang Mai,
But going away on a two week trip in a few days. If you're here after.
January 6 and want to meet up for dinner an evening, let me know.
Can bring your aunt too, if she's hot.
