No shit lol. If it wasnt 11:30am, and if I had slept already, I would go get me one right now lol. Too damn tired tho. Gotta catch at least a little sleep today.

Ahh, if that were only true lol. I dont use pickles, onions, tomato or any of that. The Bacon, Mushrooms and Cheese only enhance the flavor :) But ya, a nice regular cheeseburger with no extras is good too sometimes. The quality of the meat makes all the difference tho.

Of course they can... and do. Many do. The problem is they taste like shite. I mean, even someone who doesn't really like burgers would be able to tell a major difference just looking at them, much less tasting them. Same with the onion rings. They even LOOK better, and taste MUCH better. The coke is just coke tho lol. Seriously... I will get photos one of these times. Of course that will mean getting a photo of the crappy burgers I dont like as well. Maybe ill have a friend order one and not tell him why LOL. As to looks, I am not talking about presentation - I could care less about that. Its the obvious quality of the components that make the difference. Well that and how they are cooked. The best burger in the world is cooked Medium to Medium Rare, meaning its still red in the middle. The problem with that is that it is very dangerous to cook them that way if the kitchen is not kept properly clean, and not just the kitchen, but the hands of the workers. They have to make the burger patty, so one stray bit of bacteria and your sick. Even in the USA I was careful about where I ordered a Medium Rare burger - and many places just will not sell them - they have policies that require all burgers to be well done. Sucks. Takes all the flavor out of the meat. Add on bacon and sauteed mushrooms and jack cheese... masterpiece. And the meat they use is VERY good. Its either imported or created fresh by them - or at least from a different supplier than which supplies the local falang markets. I have bought hamburger from all of them at one time or another and never got that quality. Or maybe I'm just not that good a cook lol. Either way, its well worth it (to me) once in a while.

Too true... But I still make the same money I did over there, or close enough to it, so... lol. :) I do miss some of the tastes of home tho. Would kill for a 6 pack of hard tacos from Taco Bell... or... maybe a pan of queso from Chilis... Or hell, even a waffle house omelet and hashbrowns lol. Sure you can get a omelet over here, but they do something weird to um... much different taste. Think I'll look that up actually... might be able to make one here the same way. I think they add a bit of their waffle mix and throw it in a blender first. Simple, but effective But ya, this is home now. Damn I miss foreign food lol.

Do you rent a motorbike? If so you will have no problem with that arrangement. Elsewise if your out past midnight it will cost you a nice chunk to get home... between 100-300 baht. ... and for that price the driver will still stop for others etc. Other then that.it is closer to a nice beach for the daytime stuff.

Quite a few single (or at least alone) girls at tamnan chon tonight :)

Lol damn phone spell check.. stunners

Not really an opinion type thing. Jomtien is MUCH quieter than Pattaya. Very hard to find stinkers or even 6+ (that part is my opinion - to each his own).

Going on 4 years... and I wouldn't expect a Brit to understand about a burger, onion rings and a coke. Fish a chips, maybe Sometimes you need the taste of home... not just a copy like you can get just about anywhere. Yes, the burger at HR is expensive as all hell, but its damn good. The only place I know in town to get a safe medium rare burger (Sure as hell wouldn't trust a medium rare burger from ANY Thai place). Matter of fact, I might just go do that tonight. Sounds good. :)

Hmm... Always gave this place a pass before. THink I will give it a go now. AMazing how cheap some people can be. Back in the USA my friggin lunch was more than $30 every day, and dinner could push $75 depending on where. No problem at all paying $30 for a good (different) meal. Hell, I go to Hard Rock at least 1-2 times a month for one of their burgers... w/ onion rings and a coke, comes to 900 baht. Nothing wrong with that.

You won't find a Thailand ISP with that kind of storage I dont think... and if you did, pushing that kind of bandwidth thru it will lead to investigation. If the objects you are uploading are videos, they will eventually be seen... hope you understand what that means exactly :) I get 1mb/s on average upload with my premier package at 3bb, and I hear that True's new service gets 3mb upload. Either of those would do 5GB/day and 50 per week if you could let them go most of the day. but again, if you use that much bandwidth your account WILL get scrutinized, so if your doing something illegal here in Thailand, you WILL get caught. Thats the way they got the idiot uploading his videos from his hotel last year... forget the guys name.. was big in the news at the time.

Tigglebitties hands down, at least for American breakfast. Real crispy bacon (not half cooked ham just called bacon), etc. Try to Tigglebitties Scramble - friggin awesome.

Need to find a good honest and reliable place to rent a mini-van type vehicle for a week in mid October. It will be traveling from Pattaya to Phuket/Krabi and a few places in between. Must have insurance and all that, of course. Anyone had dealings with any company or person with one they can recommend? Thanks, Frosty

Ya, he was an alright guy.

By the by, your website is down. 403 error.

Hmm. Might make a nice extra condo for those times when I don't want to bring a gal back to my house.... lol.

www.hidemyass.com Works very well. Not free, but not expensive.

IMHO you need to contact Calum of Solor Golf. HIs board name is Doghaus. He runs the annual FLB Ride Her Cup, and is a very good guy... One of the best I know in Pattaya. He would be happy to give you all the info you need. If you prefer to call him, his number is:

Is she Bi, and willing to share? If not... leave her at home. It will turn out to be a huge fight and hassle, or you will be stuck with only her the entire trip, which kinda does away with the entire reason to come to Pattaya. Phuket? Maybe... but Pattaya? No.

We had breakfast there after going to a Thai disco all night about 3-4 months ago... was terrible. Much rather pay a bit more and get something better. Price is NOT everything. True, its cheap... and its likely not going to make you sick, but it was just disgusting. Not a very good trade off for the saved money, IMHO.

I suppose... if you think "a bit of a surcharge" is a 100% markup. Owned and operated by.... bryan blair box 215 kewaskum wi 53040 US Phone: +1.2626269079 Email Address: 4amtech@gmail.com Your better off having one of the expats here on Pattaya Talk getting a card for you. Well, thats not true I guess.. its only $6 for 100 baht, but still... Just something about giving a falang a 100% markup on anything that just doesn't sit right with me. For the record I would be happy to get a card for anyone who wants one... You can pay me actual value via PayPal at todays exchange rate, and including the small paypal fee (I think its like $0.25 + 3% or something). I have done that for people before. Come to that, if I know you I wont charge you at all and you can slip me the 100 baht next time your in town.

Ya, its against the rules to mail stamps, money and all sorts of other things too, but that doesnt stop most people. I do not see Credit/Debit cards on the list at fedex.com tho.

I have had 3 cards mailed to me over the years... and prefer FedEx for them. I have never had the Thai postal service misplace a package, but have had only packages sent - not letters. Fedex can get a card here for about $30 - not bad at all really.

It means be quiet. Its in a Temple or a Wat by a meditation/praying area... Doesnt say what temple.

Lol. Sorry, didnt see it :) Posted from my phone... wasnt really paying attention. Just wanted to make sure it was out here somewhere... Drove all the way to the old shop in Naklua... would have been good to know As to nude photos... Ya, we could get some... tho most of the staff there are male
