Old Hippie

Isn't that the bases of several lawsuits? Of course I doubt we will ever see a resolution to that, and oddly the Ronnie lovers seem to forget this incident and the whole Iran Contra mess. Tip O'Neil had old Ron by the balls and rather than impeach him, he made him his bitch. History should not be so kind to old Ronnie...wonder if his psychic warned him about any of this...what a shit bag, I can't believe he is #2...full of #2 yes. Second worst of our time, after Bush 2. Kennedy...many say had he not been killed, he would have not won a second term, or be remembered so fondly.

"...The smugglers threatened to rape and kill three El Salvadoran sisters ages 12, 14 and 16 if their mother didn't pay them $10,000, Arizona Department of Public Safety Capt. Fred Zumbo said. The girls' mother, who is living legally in the U.S. in the San Francisco area..." If the mother is here legally, she can petition to bring her kids here safely and legally. While I feel bad for the kids, the parents should be held responsible for breaking the law.

Yeah well...oh fuck it don't get me started...I have a 97 Campry, needs a lot of work, roof leaks, has 254,000 miles on it, ALL original, except the radiator, and It gets me where I want and need to fo...looks good, if and when I clean it, so if it is good enough for me, why do the shit bags that work for me deserve better? I say give them a bus pass and tell them to suck my dick! If they don't like it, let them go get a real job.

Yes, and there is a lot to be said for not having to drive 1 county over for that pleasure now...but I digress, I think it was who? Montana who told the old turb ball to shove his highway aide, and they kept the spped limit t 70 and the drinking age at 18 until the $$ ran out.n Real Americans in my book...not the bullshitters we have today. Who sucks ass more? Ronnie or GWB? tough call of course if you toss Carter in the mix it becomes a no brainer...I just long for the days of cheap gas, and V8s, and some slut in the back seat.

I read a report from ABATE or some biker advocate group about helmits...something about how they had less people killed by head injuries, but the number of deaths from neck injuries went up...in short, the law made no difference. Solutions to the cell phone driver? there is none, except when you catch them, you fry them, I mean massive fines...get the cell phone number/phone, get the call record and prove they were on the phone at the time...and really fine the shit out of them, take their license, same as a drunk driver...triple the penalty + jail if there is an accident. Years back, I worked in Texas, the law allowed you to drink beer while driving. However, if you were in an accident, and had an open container, the penalty was far greater than if you did not have an open container...the drunk driving laws were tougher as well...in short "...this is a privilidge, don't fuck it up..." Regan and the highway bill killed that as well as other freedoms we had...

Once again, you over simplify things...almost as lame as someone petty thief being blackmailed into becoming a terrorist but I digress...so let me try to explain this...you are driving down the road, you need to call the police to report crap in the road that can/will cause an accident, you cannot pull over and shut the car off...or you need to call and report a dangerous driver etc...again, you cannot pull over, or, as I stated before, I was following a dangerous driver and talking to the police until they could intercept her...again, not able to shut the car off. And what about one of the passengers using a cell phone in the car? You see, things are not always so simple and practical, there are times, very rare thankfully, when your solution simply will not work. Don't get me wrong, cell phone talkers in cars piss me off, and they should be hard slapped for it. But your proposal is just simply impracticable.

So how should this device work if one NEEDS to use the cell phone in the car, and can't pull over? Such as reporting a crime, hazard, a break down etc...Many times I have had to use my phone while driving, once I was following a dangerous driver who later turned out to be drunk...I was driving while talking to the highway patrol...Should there be exceptions? who gets to decide what those exceptions are, and how will it all work? To my knowledge, cell phone jammers, if that is what you were talking about, are illegal in most places.

I just watched "The Most Dangerous Man in America." About the pentagon papers and Danial Elsberg. Scarey when you stop to think about it.

Try this, tomatoes. Italian basil, garlic, oil, vinager, and maybe a purp[le onion, fresh Mozzerella...what ever. makes a great side dish for lamb or steak...or as it's own...

Hate it. Smels like a ladyboy's knickers after a fruitless night cruising Sukhumvit in the heat and humidity for a punter and going home empty-handed. Not that I'd know. Just a guess. Ruled: GAY.

Hmph. I have two avocados in my refrigerator at home' date=' so your slander is badly aimed. I make great Mexican food myself here in Patters, but I still miss having a taco truck within striking distance. Edit: I just realized you were probably auto-replying, not trying to rub it in that there are no taco trucks here. Never mind. [/quote'] Oh no, I WAS rubbing in! (Not in a gay way) IF you get to live in Thailand, then you have to make a choice and give up the taco trucks...so suffer! The Carnitas Torta was really good BTW ...Guess that means' date=',,Ramon....is cuming....over....lol Get the fluffy towels out....Dark Ling....[/quote'] Ramon, as you, better than anyone should know, is a Puerto Rican, NOT a Mexican! Call him Mexican and he will "kick" your ass than he usually does! BTW, he called and said you left your leopard speedo at his place, and to tell you the sore was just an alergic reaction, not to worry.

I think I'll hit the taco truck up the street...I made some ceviche over the weekend...and usually have "Salsa and chips" by the pool...ah cilantro/coriander etc...

Palin hotel, about oh 2-3km from downtown old town Sukhothai...walk out make a right...there are a few bars there which offer karaoke, massage food, drinks and there are girls there...but many do not speak even a word of English, and may not want to go with a farang , others might :hubba: Expect to pay close to what you would in BKK...or Pattaya, or somewhere in between. The local houses would be cheaper...maybe. Enjoy!

Yes, liberals promote the idea of health care and other socialist causes.

Incident at Ogalalla (sp) :The Leonard Peltier Story. Very good documentary from Redford/Sundance films... Tonight hope to rent "when the levies Broke" Docu about the recent floods in New Orleans. Also hope to get "Office Space" as I have never seen it.

4 Issaarn boys were sitting around, and discussing what they wanted in life...the first kid says "I want a truck like that one, the 4 wheel drive extended cab with all the extras..." the next kid says "I like the truck, but I am more a city guy, I like the BMW parked next to it" The 3rd kid says "Both are nice, but you can't sleep in a car or truck, I want the house they are parked in front of, it has 5 bed rooms, 3 full baths and a swimming pool and 12 rai of land! The 4th kid is silent, and finally the others ask him what he wants. He says "I want big boobs and a mini skirt" and the other kids are shocked and say "WHAT?" He says "Yes, last year my sister got big boobs and a mini skirt and then some guy bought her the truck, another bought her the BMW, and another bought her the house...others buy her what ever she wants..."

Hmmm, the cat thing is not only potentially gay, but incestuous as well. Driving 1 handed with a cigarette involved is indeed o.k. and can cancel out 2 of the cats. You would of course pick up non gay points if the cigarette is unfiltered. As for driving on opposite sides of the road, this was once thought to be gay, but then we evolved past that, and now recognize the international variance, so thus, either 1) the opposite of the American rules would apply or 2) the international standard would default. Making love to your GF would of course NOT be gay, unless of course she "rims" you, or plays with your ass. Pictures or video will help to make a clearer judgment.

4 cats? hmmm...this could be gay. Of course, as it is an even number, you may be o.k. here. Are they 2 couples? as in 2 females and 2 males? 3 and 1? or 4 of the same? if you have 4 male cats, this is as gay as having 4 females. a tough call, but as you usually drive 1 handed, I may be able to grant you a clemency here. Of course, it all comes down to which hand is the dominate driving hand? I have just reviewed your case with the central gay review committee. It seems you do have an additional tool you can use to avoid gayness regarding cat ownership. Do you live in an area with a lot of mice or rats? if so, and if the primary purpose of these cats is to rid your home of said rodents, then the felines would fall under the classification of "TOOLS" and thus, as tools are indeed extremely manly, gayness is not the case. From the gay review board... Article 12 paragraph 2 subsection3 "...any ownership of a cat shall indeed be gay, unless said cat is used for the purpose of rodent control. In which case said cat is deemed a tool, and thus cannot be gay..." This is confirmed by article 1, paragraph 2 main section "...the following shall never be deemed gay...TOOLS...with the exception of sewing machines used by men, in which case, an immediate ruling of gay must be invoked, and cannot EVER be revoked..." So it appears you *may* be in the clear here.

I will grant you a special dispensation under the 3rd and 5th articles of "non gay driving." However, sub section 6 of the 8th article clearly states, you MUST remove one hand when ever possible. Drive safe.

Absolutely correct.

Old Joke Belgian Boy, a San Francisco Classic. Was told on this board long ago. Still a classic!

A guy was laying in bed with his new found love. After he fucked for the 3rd time, the girl was just laying there stroking his cock. Finally he said "why do you love my dick so much?" she replaied "I guess I just miss mine..."

"...I occasionaly find myself sucked into one of the most common bar stool discussions amongst ex-pats; the story of the latest poor sucker who got ripped off in Thailand. I am always suprised just how cheery and almost gloatfull these seasoned ex-pats are, relaying the story of Bob from London who lost it all to an Isarn BG after just 4 weeks here. The story is usualy acompanied with a big cheesy grin and a feeling of superiority. Kinda like 'ha ha, they had it coming.... but i know the score. I live here. Silly fuckers' Almost like they are glad it happened - as it reinforces there belief that they are more wise and clued up..." With you as well. I have said this before, I'll repeat it again...I have never been ripped off or cheated in Thailand, or riped off by a BG, but WHEN it happens, and it most certainly will happen at some point, it will not be because I am some clueless newbie. It will be because I was either overly confident, or just plain stupid and or trusting, like so many clued in "know it alls" before me. Frankly, I am surprised when I see some experienced guys make the mistakes they make, as I will make sooner or later. It happens. As for the out right thuggery, as in strong arm robberies, lies, cheats etc, there is just no excuse for it anywhere, and it happens just about everywhere. Moral of the story is to be careful and not take chances, and to be prepared for something to happen, and when it does, not to let it ruin your trip.

Yaowarat used to be full of these shit heads, now it seems they have moved on...I have not seen a taut there in ages, the same guy stopped me a few times, gave me the same/different stories...I filled in the blanks where needed. The tauts are just annoying more than anything...I mean if I want a suit, I will walk into the shop, not be persuaded to buy something I don't need or have inclination to buy.

Bust trying to take a good photo is pretty funny!
