Right you are. This board seems to be infested with social misfits who promptly start insulting and squabbling with each other no matter what the topic of the thread might be. Rather than simply offering counterpoints or their own opinion or experience on the subject, they prefer to attack those who's experience or opinions differ from their own. I suppose it might qualify as good fun and entertainment for some, but it gets tiring pretty quickly. Kudos to you for not being drawn into the petty personal attacks (I cannot say the same for myself on occasion) and for staying focused on gleaning the pertinent information. Strong work.

4niceight, the fear that the other BM's have with you sending money to LOS is that you may never be able to get it back out of Thailand. Do you understand that? So, stop with the odd sounding excuses and find somewhere else to stash it untill you actually need it, or assume the risk of sending it directly to a Thai bank for all eternity. Thailand has just experienced a military coup that is seemingly not too fond of farangs. Frankly, I think it is plain stupid to send your money there, given the volitile and unforseen nature of the place and its general distaste for foreigners.

Just gotta work, eh? That simply baffles me. I suppose it makes a difference what kinda job you had in the past and if it sucked ass or not. I would never step foot in an operating room again for the rest of my life, if I could escape from it today. Nossir, I would not have a prob retiring tomorrow forever. I do understand you getting fed up with the Thai attitude towards farangs, though. I wonder why they hate us so much? Petty human jealousy, I reckon. Even so, the constant undercurrent of ant-farang attitude would likely get under my skin sooner or later, too.

Hope this isn't too off topic, and I don't mean to hijack the thread, but has anyone had any bonding or veneers done to there teeth there? I got this huge, sexy gap between my front two chompers and was planning to get that shit fixed while I'm there. It costs about $100 per tooth for bonding, here, and $300 for venneers. Anyone?

WTF does that mean? Some kinda godless ass humper code language?! Just kiddin'! Hey, Murphy, I'm fairly new to this board, but I can't imagine another one anywhere that is as good as this one. So far, I have a discount hotel room, a cheap ride from the airport to my hotel, a guy who's gonna show me the inside skinny on BKK (thanks, dotcom!), and a shit load of pertinant information on my trip to LOS in January, thanks to the folks on this forum. So, I think it will be just fine if you go ahead and just let it out, baby! That is, where is your bar and why is it the place for this big, horny, thirsty fucker to be in a few weeks? To wit; what do you offer that is above and beyond the 3,000 or so other bars in the neighborhood? Don't mean for that to sound shitty, but what is your angle that sets you apart?
