If you are a mosquitoe magnet like me it might be worth your while to wera repelant if you are heading to the villages or palces like Cambodia or Vietnam. from Yahoo.com story JAKARTA (Reuters) - Southeast Asian nations are battling a surge in dengue cases, amid signs that climate change could make 2007 the worst year on record for a disease that often gets less attention than some higher-profile health risks. The spread of dengue, which is transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito and is endemic in much of the region, has also accelerated in recent years due to increasing urbanization

In the last 12 months I have stayed at whitehoues condotel 2 times. Good rooms internet connection is not wireless built a direct connect bring your own cat5 connectors cable and you won't have to pay for a cable. Very good internet. The rooms have double glass vinyl windos and doors and are very quite. Good parking for your car as well.

my first wife use to piss about me driving to fast. This after she got a ticket becuase whilst driving at 90 she passed a cop who was doing 80, this in a 50 mph speed zone. After he stopped her she tried to get out of it. But the cop told her Look I can't let you pass me, not when I am driving 30 over the limit. To the car into the shop to check on a transmission leak on the wifes car. Mechanic calls me and asks if I knew there was a large dent and a hole punched into the bottom of the transmisson pan. I told yah sure and had him replace the cover. Never bothered asking the missus how she

sorry Mr. Mango, your are correct, I completely missed what you were looking for, i thought you were after a cheap one way fare. Local Grocery stores here in the US have visa cards you can buy. They are rechargable. You send the card inside a birthday card to the girl in overnight mail. Once you know she has it you go online and put the needed amount of money on the card and she can charge it no problem. (yes I know you are not suppose to do that. But it works most of the time.)

EVA sell one way tickets and usually the price is close to 1/2 of the price of a round trip. Hawk buys his tickets from a travel agent BKK-LAX on china air. they have and open return for 6 months and the price is around $900. For an extra $50 you get the ticket with a 1 year open return. Travel agents also have similiar tickets on other carriers. All the airlines will sell a one way ticket, the just charge way too much.

I got to 35 sec but I need a smoother moving mouse. This one is a little sticky. Guess I have been using it for looking at too many pictures on this forum.

Grand Mercure is part of the accor hotel chain. The accor hotels particularly soffitels are very hit and miss on being guest friendly. I don't know of a soffitel in BKK that is Guest friendly. If that would be a concern you might want to inquire of the hotel as to their policies.

The wife calls the bangkok police my mia noi. Everytime I drive in bangkok they get me. Worst was 1500 baht for speeding they said it was a double fine becuase of the kings birthday. They started at 1000 baht but after 10 minutes of my wife arguing with them the cop was pounding on the roof and demanding 1500 baht. Another time we got stopped for and everybody in the car was drunk. We had 2 thai guys with us and they invited the cop to party with us. We offered the cop a 1/2 full bottle of JW black but the cop said he had no place to put it and if he drank it he'd be mao like us. He l

thanks for the pics

united and thai biz class are very similiar except for the stews. (thai being much better) thai premium is about the same as ual premium.

If you are picky about where you stay then the walk in will not make you happy. There are several reasons why. Sometimes when I have done a walk in I have been able to get a room but had to move 1 or 2 time during the stay. One time in low season (august) the hotel had a delux room for 8 days but they didn't have the same room. The were willing to give a very good rate. Talking to the desk clerk they have many guests who book months in advance and book specific room numbers. i.e I want room 501. Next to that the hotel clerks themselves show people booked inot specific rooms even when no s

Very nice hotel/ I stayed there when they first opened. Comparable to majestic grande but not crawling with assholes loke MG.

It will be tough to find a cheap fare from BKK-HKG. Thai air has managed to get a strong position. There ysed to be many airlines flying the route including united and american. Both had to drop the route becuase of a threat to deny them gates at bkk if they kept flying the route. So now the only airlines flying are those that will not compete.

i have stayed at flipper. Rooms are cheap and shabby. I had one BG who said "my room better". A/C is weak and rooms are small a very plain. Staff at flipper was nice and lobby is decent. If you want to be in that area, Try eastiny inn. They have a very nice lobby and the pictures of the rooms looked good. Do a search and see if you can find and reviews of eastiny. If you look up flipper you should see a split decison. Many guys like it becuase you can get rooms there for 700 baht. The rest of us don't becuase we would rather pay 1000-1200 baht a get a bigger room with better bed etc.

gee paul, Obviously we didn't keep Jan busy enough if she still had time for you to get your hands on her. Congrats

Tims residence is in the area as is areca lodge. You should not have any problem finding a room somewhere near. If you look on latestays.com pattaya is wide open during that time frame. Also try a search on this forum for the thai archer hotel in is across from Lolitas. http://www.arecalodge.com/ http://www.timroyalresidence.com/ http://www.lekatai.com/contact.htm thethaiarcher@hotmail.com +66 3872 0948

I bought a ticket on eva last week. I Have been a united premier paltinum for a decade. But i finally got tired of the crappy service especially in the last couple of years. So no more UA flights for me (even though my brother is a UA pilot) I will use my milage to book sing air biz class when available. Until then I'll take the $1004 delux seating on eva like I just paid. I am looking forward to getting some real service from an airline. Sing air was great. Thai air was goofy. United seems to send their flight & gate attendants to the "piss on them" school. Nice part will be leaving

I stayed there back in November 06. paid 1200 baht a night for a very nice room. They were tearing up the pool at that time. BTW previous poster must be confused with something else. Whitehouse was open in November 05 I was staying at sandy springs at that time but they were definately open. They have double windows so rooms are quite. good a/c. The pool ws being ripped up and replaced in nov 06 anyone know if they are finished yet?? also I had wife with me and she had girlfriends coming and going without reception ever saying a word to us. But I do think that they brochure states ro

popular science has picture of the new lockheed in the current issue, Problem is it is a private jet built to hold something like 12-20 passengers. I guess I got my speed wrong I think they say mach 1.6 and the concorde i think was 2+ so not faster than the concorde. Boeing hasn't announced any delays in the 787 that I know of, but it just looks like they might not make their project schedule. Part of the reason is this is the first attempt in aviation history of mass production of composite large scale jets. Just my pondering. But any delay in the 787 will pale in comparison to what delay

Remarkably enough, bankruptcy has not seemed to be a deterrent to many airlines when it comes to leasing/buying new aircraft. My point about the delivery of the two aircraft. The 380 does not involve any drastic new technology that I know of. It is just bigger than other planes. That does create some logistical problems, but nothing that knowledgable management can't plan for. The 787 involves using all composite materials on a commercial airliner. Something that no one has ever done before. Being at this point appears that it will deliver their planes somewhat later than projected but cl

I have often thought about writing a management book and calling it "management by mistake". The best and most effective managers understand that to develop talented and effective managers and future leaders means that you have to let them take risks and to sometimes make mistakes. Poor managers demand perfection. The usually result is to disable the talent that work for them. Someone earlier made a comment about the validity of the posters knowledge of the aircraft industry. I served more than 25 years of the commercial airline subcommittee. I have toured the plants of douglass, lockheed

misssing the pertinent info. assuming you are on the space shuttle and weightless then the ball is always at rest until acted upon by some other object.

it is not unheard of for a virgin to lose her virginity as a BG. I was talking to one girl a fw year back and she said that she knew of 3 or 4 girls who were virgins when they started work at a bar. One was something like 28 and still a virgin when she started bar. from my geting to know lot of regular TG as well as BG I would guess that there is a greater percentage of unmarried 20 yr old virgins in Thailand than in USA or UK. for that matter there are probably a greater percentage of girls in the USA or UK that are molested by relatives than in thailand. people who post shit about tg a

Owen, you are in luck. I have an acquaintance that has set up shop in BKK. He is an attorney from San Francsisco. He sued the state of CA and won several million dollars for descriminating against white males. He is super sharp and love thailand. He will be in Bkk soon but already has a shop and partner setuo their. Divorce and immigration is his thing. I will try to see if I can find his thai number and post it. If he can't help the thai twins across form the embassy have everything wired. For thailand and a divorce case it can be alot like chicago. It is not what you know but who you k

why not try french Moorea? It is my understanding that westerners can own property there.Thats where the bali hi boys went.
