  1. That's new. I preferred to go on a night when they were quiet...once I made the mistake of going on quiz night, and it was awful.
  2. I used to go to the Londoner every time I had a chance when in BKK. They had some great meal specials, well prepared, and reasonably priced. I gather from your praise that it's still good. I'm happy to hear that.
  3. Avoid mentioning it to the missus.

    An indepth review of the winning play of the SF-NO game...what a throw, what a catch! http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-films-anatomy-of-a-play/09000d5d82616659/Divisional-Anatomy-Vernon-Davis-game-winner

  7. WTF? We're on Jessica Lange 5 days after the movie you replied to. BTW, where are the pictures?
  8. I have DTAC unlimited 3G and a TRUE unlimited package, both post paid. TRUE is 899/mo, as I recall with lots of minutes and SMS. DTAC is 799 just for the internet, and I pay more for calling and SMS. I might be off on the monthly rates, but not by far. Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
  9. Consider getting a 3G unlimited data plan as a backup.
  10. Technically, yes. Would I do it? Yes, of course I would. I'd pack them in my checked baggage and count on the odds being in my favor of not being searched, especially if they were good California Chardonnays

    The Brothers Harbaugh meeting in the Super Bowl would be an historic event, indeed.

    Could you recap for us? I don't recall the claim, but if you made it, I'd be happy to read it. I just hope it wasn't Denver in the Super Bowl. Tight games with drama and suspense are miles ahead of one sided beat downs...unless your team is doing the beat down

    I watched the last 3 minutes of that SF-NO game again...what a cliff hanger! 4 lead changes in 3 minutes. Now that's drama like you don't get every game.

    During the 49rs-Saints game, I took a nap at half-time, and didn't wake up until the beginning of the 4th quarter. I didn't know the score until well into the 4th, because Fox (or NFL Game Pass) wasn't inserting the score/time/downs legend on the screen at all. The only clues to the score were the commentators, and they were jabbering so much I never did figure out the score, or most importantly, the difference in score. By the time the game was down to 9 seconds left, and the 9rs scored, I actually though they were 2 points behind and had to do a 2 point conversion. When they kicked for the extra point, I was flabbergasted. Yet, the smiles all around on the 49rs sidelines and the crowd was making me think that maybe I'd missed something...it wasn't until the game was over that they showed the damned score, and the 4 point lead the 9rs had. Yes, it was a very confusing morning for me. Did they show the score legend on screen frequently (or at all) during the USA broadcast? For those of us who have to stay up all night to watch the game, with the occasional nap, it's a real boon.

    It came right down to the wire, didn't it? No Mr Bean for sure!
  17. About 6 years ago, a friend of many expats and BM, came into arrivals with a duty free bag containing 14 cartons of various cigarettes he was delivering as a favor around town. He was allowed to proceed to the outside of the arrivals area (Don Muang) where he was surrounded by, he says, gun wielding police. They took him to downtown BKK to await a court hearing, confiscated all but 1 carton of cigarettes, and charged him 2000b for each carton over the regulation 200 cigarettes. If you buy cigs or booze beyond the allowable amount at duty free, toss the bag and pack what you buy in your carry-on baggage. BTW, I've never been stopped or x-rayed.
  18. A real success story. That's good to hear!
  19. I'm looking forward to some rain.

    Carrying Astro doesn't guarantee the venue will be open for the game or that it will be on display. To the OP, I'd suggest you drop by some large sports bar, like Shenanigans to see what their plans are. The lateness (or earliness) of the hour, and the relative lack of die hard fans at that hour, might preclude many places from making special arrangements for that game. Now the 49rs Saints game might be a different matter. I plan to replay it Sunday night if the 49rs win. If they lose, I might put on Mr. Bean.

  24. He's just saying you're not like his idea of a typical Thai guy who is happy to do nothing but drink and eat fried chicken and som tam. I'd think you'd be happy to hear that
