No guest fee in charged in Bangkok or Pats.

Rechargeable is only way to go, save lots of $$$$. My US charger works on Thai voltage.

Yeah Pattaya is cheaper then Bangkok in most cases. Really depends on what you want to do during your visit besides booze and bg's. Bangkok has much more to do during the day (if you are awake). Go to both.........then decide what suits you best.

And camera and more, plenty of room!

Honey? Is that you? I miss you so much!

Near something that looks diabolically like sand!

My Motorola (U.S. made) works on both 220 and 110 same as my laptop, don't need a convertor. Read the back of your adaptor, bet yours is the same.

Damn near any bar you walk into. Smile, introduce yourself to the mamasaan, manager etc. Talk to the guys around you, never a problem finding new friends to party with.

Not afraid to fly but get bored as hell as i'm usually unable to sleep in flights. I take 2 nicotine patches, 2 valium and copius amounts of whiskey.....sleep to Narita, wake for the 1.5 hour layover, back to sleep until BKK. Wake up pretty refreshed, no jet lag and ready to go.

And warranties in Thailand are for the most part non-existant.

Sadly it has become a very serious threat! It will go further then SAR's when (not if) it hits. Good ole GW said the other day he will use the military to "quarantine" airlines and states when they are affected.

Is it possible to exceed "safe limits" while drinking Crown Royal? I used to be on blood pressure medicine (Hyzar and Toprol) the side effects were far worse than the high blood pressure itself. I started exercising daily even though not overweight and eating much better then I was accustomed to. Blood pressure came down to reasonable limits and got off the meds ASAP! I also cut way back on the smokes, went from 3-4 packs a day to now less then 1 pack a day.

I want a 2nd opinion Smoking and drinking are the only two vices I have left.

I recently did the verification process and it went through without my having to use the codes on the original cd's. Was smooth and easy.

Been a few stories lately in the news about moto guys hitting the lobbies in the early morning hours and robbing/breaking into the front desk boxes (Pattaya News). I prefer the in room e-safe but they are not crook proof by any means. Most of them are not even secured to the floor, just set down in a closet. For me the in room safe is just plain convienience, running up and down to the desk to lock up camera's, watch and anything else you don't want to leave out in the open while having overnight guests. I know alot of guys "hide" valuables in the room, some of these gals, especially freelancers are pretty damn resouceful. If they want it bad enough they will find it. Also, don't let the fact that the hotel has security fool anyone. The guards make next to nothing and will easily take a bribe to let them out with your belonging's.
