Blast from the past ...

Vern, a hard working guy bowls one night a week and plays golf every Saturday. For his birthday his wife takes him to a strip club. The club's doorman says "Hello Vern". The wife says how does he know you? Vern says he's in my bowling league. They sit at a table and the waitress says "Want your regular Budweiser, Vern?" The wife's eyes get big and Vern explains that she's also the waitress at the golf course and he always gets a Budweiser at the turn. Then a busty dancer comes up and says "Want your regular nasty lap dance, Vern?" The wife storms out of the club and gets in a

Nor do I although some of them are entertaining. Wonder what became of the hissy fight over masks at Royal Garden Taco Bell a few months ago. I think the diaper-less black guy got off with a small fine for aggression against the other fellow. As far as PBG (or PBB as Stuckman thinks it should be re-named) ... a friend posted yesterday that all ATK requirements have been removed.

I'd bet most farangs are not wearing face diapers much these days in Pattaya. It's getting that way quickly in Bangkok. It'll be a long time before Thais let go of the face diaper fetish; a consequence I reckon of the government spending a couple of years frightening them.

It's similar in Bangkok, i.e., for places with multiple entrances, just try another if you must get into the place. As far as the other nonsense goes in Bangkok, most seem to still don the face diapers but even that is waning around the Sukhumvit ghetto and out in Sathorn where we are any way. Yesterday I rambled through a few places, and only about half of them seemed to still have the temperature check and tracking sign-ins at the entrance. Anecdotally as it is, I didn't see anyone use either.

I've taken plenty of the nose violation tests when necessary, e.g., for travel, it's not fright for me but rather it is painful due to some sinus and other conditions I happen to have. But above and beyond all of that, as the over the top test relates to the PBG ... no way would I get one of those for the privilege of entering a place to pay for something I can get literally hundreds of other places all over Pattaya without that swab up the nose. BTW, for Pete if he's still following the thread ... good news ... Stickman mentioned PBG in his copynpaste blog yesterday. He did also men

A German, a Frenchman, and an Englishman go fishing. They fish quite happily for a while until the German catches a huge golden fish, but as he pulls it off the hook it says ... "Please don't kill me! Spare my life and I'll grant you all a wish!" The German throws the fish back and says, "I wish for a mug of beer that will never empty", and immediately a foaming mug of ice-cold German Weizen appears in his hand. He takes a long swig and when he puts it down, it's still miraculously full! The Frenchman and Englishman are, of course, amazed. "I wish," said the Frenchman, "For a wall to be

As you know, it was St. Patrick's Day earlier this week, and I would like to share a personal experience with my friends about drinking and driving. As you know, some of us have been known to have brushes with the authorities from time to time, often on the way home after a "social session" with family or friends. Well, St. Patrick's Day was a few days ago, and this happened to me. I was out for an evening with friends and had more than several beers followed by a couple of bottles of rather nice red wine, and then a few vodka shots. Although relaxed, I still had the common sense to k

If I had a dentist that required ATK tests before treatment, I'd get another dentist; ditto any service provider of anything for which there are other options. But back to the thread, Pete seems to be going along with the flow and following what others are doing, which as you know, is post some signs, but quickly get back to ignoring whatever edict/regulation/mandate seems to dictates testing.

Excellent

Some feedback from other fora ... Yeah, Pete can forget about getting enough customers to cover many running costs if he sticks to that BS. I wish him good luck, I really like that place, but no way would I take an ATK test in Thailand recording QR codes/tracking given by anyone remotely associated with reporting results to the Thai health nazis.

Bogie goes to an outdoor show at the Brisbane Showgrounds and wins a tinnie. He brought it home, and his wife looks at him and says, "What you gonna do with that. There’s no water deep enough to float a boat within 160 Kms of here." He says, "I won it and I'm gonna keep it." His brother came over to visit several days later. He sees the wife and asks where his brother is. She says, "He's out there in his tinnie", pointing to the paddock behind the house. The brother heads out behind the house and sees his brother in the middle of a paddock sitting in the tinnie with a fishing ro

4 FACTS These facts are irrefutable. Be careful, be very careful. A wise person once said: 1. We all love to spend money buying new clothes but we never realize that the best moments in life are enjoyed without clothes. 2. Having a cold drink on hot day with a few friends is nice, but having a hot friend on a cold night after a few drinks ... PRICELESS. 3. Arguing over a girl's bust size is like choosing between Miller, Heineken, Coors, or Budweiser. Men may state their preferences, but will grab whatever is available. and 4.
