  1. My personal opinion is to invest in some place like Phuket or Samui. Better odds of resale as a vacation place. Also caters to a higher end group.
  2. Didn't realize Social Security checks were signed on the front. That is the only check most Trump supporters have seen in years.Except possibly welfare and unemployment.
  3. As a Teamster I still find that very funny. Great joke.
  4. It is a popular fleet brand. Cheaper and parts are easy to get. I have 400 vehicles at work that are on an F-350 frame and engine. The body converts it into a shuttle bus. If you add in the number of Ford F series vehicles that are RVs as well, it is easy to see why they are a best selling brand. But not for personal use.
  5. It is important to remember that critical staffing shortages exist in nearly every department. Including the State Department. The Trump Administration has not filled many key positions. It may be possible that the person you would most likely complain to does not exist at this time. Another unfilled position. That is the problem with a small government philosophy. Federal employees are seen as a waste of money till a competent one is needed. Then you wish one was there.Good news seems to be that Rex Tillerson is looking to authorize filling many positions. So maybe better luck next year.
  6. The Sport Track is sold in the US. I see them from time to time. Not diesel though. Why would you want a Ford though? Least reliable car on the road
  7. Looks like a Nissan Sentra. Good but has terrible acceleration.
  8. I am pretty sure I saw that on Walking Street a time or two.
  9. If the poster is still considering options, I just scheduled periodontal surgery with Dr. Abonrutt. She is in Bangkok, US trained, and a member of the ADA and APA. She also does implants
  10. The biggest disaster I have experienced in Las Vegas is forgetting my players club card. Had to pay full price at the buffet! We do have flooding every so often, but never in my part of town. So no real emergency provisions for me.
  11. I go to Pattaya for the temples, of course. But for a friend who is curious,would any Airbnb property owner have an issue with bringing back a bargirl or two? I am sure it would get out to the owner by way of security or hotel staff.
  12. The periodontist that my dentist recommended said that everything is done with a local anesthetic. No gas as a general rule. The good news is that recovery time is supposed to be quite quick. Did you have a different quadrant done each time?
  13. My dentist in Las Vegas says I need periodontal surgery. All four quadrants. Does anyone know of a good periodontist in Pattaya?
  14. During the last World Cup, I read an article about pro soccer in the USA.An ESPN survey noted that less than 40 percent of those who read or listen to sports media were aware that the United States had a national team. An even smaller percent knew how the national team was doing in the World Cup. I have often said that the USA team winning would be a depressing sight. In Europe or Latin America it would be a national holiday if the national team won the World Cup. In the states it would barely be noticed. If lucky a two minute spot on the evening news. Maybe 5 minutes on ESPN. Then back to t
  15. Does anyone know what options are available to those of us under 50? I am considering moving to Thailand in the next two years. I can work from home. Only occasional trips to the United States require. Will probably buy a condo, most likely in Phuket or Samui
  16. If you are considering buying check out Siam Properties. Very reputable.
  17. Can you make out what state the plates are from? Looks like Texas. That would explain a bit.
  18. Pretty inaccurate as well. The most prominent conservatives come from families such as the Kochs and Walton's. They have done little to nothing in terms of actually contributing. They simply inherited their wealth and blame everyone else for their problems. Prominent liberals include Jeff Bezos, Howard Schultz and Warren Buffet, who had to start out and actually earn a dollar, then successfully multiplied it into millions and billions of dollars. All the while contributing to the community around them.As someone who owns a few small businesses myself, I don't know many business owners who are
  19. Sadly I have a similar story about a brand new Veterans Hospital built in Las Vegas, USA. The hospital built a number of nice wide wheelchair ramps. Then the security folks got to work and installed security pylons the length of the sidewalk to protect the building. It did protect the building. It especially protected the building from veterans in wheelchairs and walkers as the security pylons were positioned across the most accessible portions of the ramps.
  20. The advertisement above the ATM is what creeps me out. Almost looks like an ad for Scientology.
