I would report the lost bankbook or empty the account. I was a bit shocked the last time I took out a large amount of cash from my bank here in Thailand. I put the withdrawl slip, my bankbook and my passport on the counter, and the teller did not even look at my passport! This my just be a one-time ...

What does whining accomplish? Where does moaning and complaining get you? It will get you this: When I was in high school I worked washing dishes part time at a restaurant. One of the cooks (who was a first class a-hole) would act like you insulted his mother if a customer sent food back to the kit...

I know that in the past some have seen Mr. West's actions & words as just harmless fun. This was not harmless fun, it was malicious & could have had serious repercussions on the lives of the people whose identity he stole. For that reason we have taken the serious step of reporting him to his Servi...

Last night a troll guessed a couple of members passwords. (not hacked, he's not that smart ).
If your password is easy to guess I suggest you change it in your user control panel.

Also MC, whats the deal with only troll-posting on Thai/falang relationship issues?
Humm, must be something too that!

you will pay 30-40% of your income until the kids are 19, IF YOU DO NOT YOU GO STRAIGHT TO JAIL in USA ! Not hardly. MC, your "my wifes father likes boxing" thread was clever and entertaining but what your doing now is transparent and repeditive. Go away and come back when you get a better idea. Pe...

Thanks for the tips parrot and patriot! I can see that going straight in to the Mannii reader is a good motivator because you will be reading Thai right away! I've taken a systematic approch because it made more sense to me, but it's taken a long time to get to the point where I can (somewhat) read!...

STOP SMOKING and do it this time without gaining weight! In the 30 odd years I've been a smoker, I've quit 3 times, but never for more than a year. Last time quit I gained 20 pounds, but it came off when I started smoking again! This time I'll watch what I eat and get in some regular exercise. Any e...

Tell me "bor bing" and my brain just rejects it as superfluous nonsense. What you are referring to as superfluous is the name of the Thai character. From your post it seem you think they are a learning aid. You do need to learn them at some point if you want to be able to communicate Thai character...

How much Dowry do I have to pay for my Thai fiancee? One aspect of the Thai dowry system that has been met with much speculation is the price range to be paid upon marriage. Most Westerners are met with some confusion when the concept of Sin Sod is discussed. The price of dowry to be paid for your T...

All this talk about Sin Sod, what about the Tong Mun (gift of 24 karat gold jewelry)? If you are getting married by the numbers Thai style you are suppose to give Tong Mun to your bride to be at the engagement party. I would consider this the equivlaent of the falang tradition of giving a ring. Sin ...

Approximately, what time do the bagels come out of the oven? Mr. Natural, have you tried them? Sorry, I don't know what time they make them. I shop there in the evening and theirs anywhere from zero to a dozen still there. I think their pretty good. I've had raisen, whole wheat and plain. I'm not s...

Mr Natural wrote:Has anyone actually met this guy?

Humm, no response from the fan lender,
no response from the poster's that offered to meet with him,
no response from the night-market crowd (he said he was going to a forum meeting).

Where are all you faranguano supporters?

On the subject of bread, if you like bagel's the Top's bakery is now making a variety of fresh bagels daily.

Glad to hear that. Hope this renews your trust in your wife. I wonder if after she got the call she contemplated having someone spy on you! I wouldn't give another thought to getting back at the person who made the calls, or even mention it to them. If they know you and your wife it will make them m...

The menu at the Udon Mickey D's is less than 1/3rd of the menu at a McD's in the US. They offer a range of healthier food. Would you believe: 10 different salads, 14 different chicken sandwiches, fresh fruit and yogurt parfaits and as mentioned above, pancakes and biscuits! One odd breakfast sandwic...

I pulled a stupid move on my motorbike one day and dumped it while trying to cross the ring road where there's no place to cross. A Thai man in a car stopped to make sure I was ok, offered to take me to the hospital (I wasn't hurt that bad), helped me get the bike out of the ditch and stayed to make...
