Yea ; the Philippines terminal does save some time believe it or not. Planes or service isnt near whar EVA is. Do a search a I believe it is about 100 USD$ cheaper to fly from BKK to manila than the other way. Yes, your choices are limited

Yep; the food there rocks, ate there several times before venturing out on soi paradise ( 6) , great location for sure .

1) How good is Cheney's hand eye coordination , and balance at his age ??? 2) If these were pen raised quail , which fly different from quail raised in the wild , then this is understanable. Pen raised birds require you to almost to step on them to flush, they fly very close to the ground and often right back at the hunters and dogs. Wild quail will often flush 30 or so meters in front of the hunting party, even with the dogs. Also pen raised birds will sometimes run and not fly, so you put rubber bands around their feet. 3) I am sure they just had a farm hand walk behind

EVA cancelled my front row exit seat when I booked online and reassigned me to one on the aisle but of course samwhiched up . I might get to change after boarding; it would seem they would just put that seat off limits on the website

Getting from Lek to Buffalo Bar on 3rd road
olyboy replied to olyboy's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
What is the cost of those little scooters 20 baht ???? Will 112kg guy, TG and a driver fit on one of those things I know in the PI squeezing my ass into a trike with a honey ko is a bit of a stretch Thanks for the replies -
Getting from Lek to Buffalo Bar on 3rd road
olyboy replied to olyboy's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Thanks lostinspcae for the info. I found the bar on the map, but I need to know if there is some kind of taxi service going that direction, or how long of a walk from the Lek it is , say 15 or 20 minutes , 2km ???? Regards -
I am going to try the taxi outside method. I am also going to walk around with a white cardboard sign that says " Pattaya " to find a rideshare. So if you see some big white guy, with a beard, burr hair cut and a back pack it is me

Try the PI on for size if you want some real corruption. Reading the daily papers is always a hoot for the viligante, coup stories, muslims seperatisit rebels, shoooting someone new , or this week was a wife hacking up her husband with a bolo knife , because he wanted to move out

What is the most effective fighting technique?
olyboy replied to jackcorbett's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
I dont remember him claiming to to be an expert grappler, in any of his interviews. Or articles written about him " To become a champion requires a condition that causes an individual to approach with pleasure the most tedious practice session "" that is one of his quotes I had written down on an index card I studied before I trained. Bruce Lee was a great man, pioneer and not what I would call ordinary by any stretch. Nothing wrong with any style of martial arts, but knowing a few submission holds and how to fall into the gaurd is a far cry from being a gre -
What is the most effective fighting technique?
olyboy replied to jackcorbett's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
All grappling techniques hinge on hip postion. Grapplers are by far superior fighters as the mixed martial arts competions have borne out over the last 12 or so years. Learning to be a good wrestler takes a lifetime, learning to throw a few effective strikes does not. Take an accomplished world class grappler ;train him in few finishing moves , and practice some well placed striking and you will see how most of the winners in MMA have come about. -
I am flying EVA for the first time next month from LAX. Glad I read this thread. The only thing so far for me that is pissing me off is the constant use of your passport number for ID . I usually fly PAL, but their prices are way out of line now. I guess I will go back a reread the site, but only one carry on allowed ? Hmmmmmm !!!!!!

PM me, for ride share info, trips or just getting a beer. I dont have a ride yet. I will be in the airport at 1 pm. Regards
-
Yes, any info about Palm Garden I cant find anything on google or asia travel websites .. Cottage Inn guest friendly ????
-
No, but the Sabai Inn looks nice; website says you can use the pool across the street at the lodge. 900 bhat rate, but I think they have carpet . I am seriously considering it for March 06'

Looks like the best deal for early march is to fly EVA to BKK and take PAL to cebu and then come back thru BKK to get to LAX. Looks like PAL is pretty content with regular customers on their LAX to manila, nighttime route. The fare prices on those flights very rarely fluxuate. Routing thru BKK saves about 157 USD$ on the trip to Cebu. Good luck on your airservice, chances are slim to none Thanks

Best I have found is 300 USD $ round trip from BKK. Any input on what carriers or where to look. I am not finding much from Thai airlines, or tiger or on the search function Regards

Sure. I dont agree with most of the International regulations on anti -doping. Some countries delight in catching their own ,like the USA and Germany. Others dont . You have to admit there is a big difference between conventional anabolic steriods primarily used to build skeltal muscle bulk and other more subtle substance such a CSF's, and the milder doses used for anti inflammatory properties. I am well aware of Balco I have used some of their products. I also used to take Ma-hung - ephedra; till the dumb ass feds got rid of it. Face it, Lance was an american winning at a sport that was

Quality of american sports has really went down the shitters over the last 20 years. Expansion of major league baseball and basketball has really hurt those skill sports. American football doesnt suffer so bad because it is more of a raw athletic talent sport with less skill involved. Hockey, well lets see if they can pull their heads out of their asses. I do miss the great boxing we had here in the 70's.Very few young men here are even competing in it anymore. Damn rough to even find boxing on the amatuer level here in the states. USA suffers in that regard because most all sports are tied
