  1. Big Chief, I've seen this same thing happen on a Thai soap opera. You need to get a Thai witch-doctor involved, screw the police, this guy is not going to leave your family alone. Hex the fucker.
  2. Can you please let me know when you get the money. We can meet at the Starbuck's next to Mcdonalds and talk about your investment options. Glad things worked out for you and the family. Your special friend, handle
  3. Under former Land Office policy, Thai nationals who married foreigners were prohibited from ownership of land in Thailand. This prohibition was based on principles of community property law and a general presumption that the Thai spouse was holding the land for the benefit of the foreigner. However, under current Land Office policy the Thai spouse can own land in Thailand, provided that the foreign spouse signs a letter declaring the property to be the separate property of the Thai spouse and waiving any interest in the property. She is going to tell you to get your ass off of her propert

    A Story

    I have no idea if this is true or not. It is a will written story either way. Has anyone heard about this? http://www.writing.com/main/view_item/item_id/1131993
  6. YMMV, Out of the 8 fights with them in January, 2 were delayed. The critial one having a connection on the other end, that cost me. Have flown a total of 16 fights of which 4 have been delayed by 30 minutes or more. Lesson learned when I have a connecting flight. Don't count on them to get you there on time. 99 baht sounds good until you miss the next fight. You eat the tickets and have to rebook at a much higher cost. Don't bother rebooking at the airport. Do it online if you can. Their call center is a waste of your time. In this case you do get what you pay for.
  7. BKK to UBP 100 THB Airport Tax 100 THB Insurance Surcharge 100 THB Administration Fee 146 THB Value Added Tax 800 THB Fuel Surcharge -------------------------------- 1246.86 THB Total Tax 50 THB Water Charge for 2 round trip 4490 baht The thing with AirAsia is: You had better check in before the counter is closed for your flight. Try using the excuse your late because the other AirAsia flight you were just on was delayed. See how far that will get you. This happened to me in Jan on a Chang Mai to BKK flight. Four of us missed the check in window and I had to eat the tickets
  8. Not on your budget you won't 3000 GBP 202,713.25 THB / 180 days = 1126 THB per day hotel 500 baht food (3 meals at food cart) 60 baht Baht bus 20 baht 1 Leo beer (bought from Big C by the case) 37 baht Total 617 baht leaves you with 509 baht a day for other expenses. Looks pretty tight to me. Do the month deal, see how much you need to save for the 6 month trip.
  9. check this place out Lotus Hotel Pang Suan Kaew http://www.hotels.chiangmai-online.com/lotus.html Just don't go for the 250 per person / each way airport transfer. It's away from the action. Next to a shopping mall. Your wife should love it. About 15 minutes from the Airport. compared to Lotus Hotel Pang Suan Kaew http://www.sawadee.com/chiangmai/lotus/
  10. RedRackam, I agree some are going to make money off this.The hype has only started. Bird flu pandemic risk 'very high' http://www.cnn.com/2005/HEALTH/conditions/...flu.warning.ap/ Interesting article 1918 Killer Flu Virus Yields Genetic Secrets to Help Fight Bird Flu http://www.voanews.com/burmese/2005-10-09-voa2.cfm
  11. I too was in Thailand during SARS, 6 days later the war in Iraq started. Two trips later it was the Bird Flu, I had chicken or eggs every day the first week, the second week the hotel stopped serving chicken or eggs. You can always find a reasons not to go. Being informed and prepared is about all you can do. Then go and do it.
  12. In March of 1997, the news broke that researchers at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Washington, D. C. had isolated genetic material from the virus. This was no easy task. The living virus is no longer around. It turns out that while conducting autopsies in 1918, Army doctors had preserved some specimens in formaldehyde. One of these jars contained the lungs of a 21 year old soldier that died. The researchers spent nearly two years extracting just seven percent of the genetic code, but the evidence gathered has provided a great wealth of information.
  13. FYI... The pandemic (an epidemic that is spread worldwide) that killed at least 25 million people in one year. A disease that is largely forgotten. A disease that occurred in the 20th century! I know what you're thinking - AID's, Syphilis, or the dreaded Ebola. All are wrong. It was the influenza of 1918-1919, right after World War I (the war killed 9 million men in 4 years) This was no minor disease - everyone on the planet was at risk. And it was started right here in the good old U. S. of A. In one year, nearly twenty million cases were repor
