When I click "News & Info" and choose "Headlines in Thailand" the page loads, but I don't see any headlines. Anyone else have this problem?
Maybe it is caused by the same bug that causes a pop-up at the bottom of my screen.
Well, sort of....she didn't win the Ms. Universe pagent, but she did win most photogenic and best national costume. Well done.
I must say some of the costumes were incredible. I also liked the new swimsuit format.
I don't know if this is a new TF feature or something I downloaded by mistake, but I now have all sorts of tools at the bottom of my screen....Translate, Recent posts, photos, facebook, twitter, join chat.......I hate it. Takes up far to much real estate on my small screen. Yes, I know I can collapse it.
What do you think.
As reported by AP. Maybe this is good for Thai tourism. Maybe TAT will take this and run with it.
LONDON - Bar-going Britons may soon be bidding goodbye to their country’s all-you-can-drink deals, as well as some of their more outlandish drinking games.
The government said yesterday that it was banning irresponsible promotions and boozy contests such as the “dentist’s chair’’ - where alcohol is poured directly into customers’ mouths - in an effort to tackle Britain’s binge-drinking problem
I put on my shorts today and noticed they were loose. Then I put on some jeans that I bought 2 weeks ago and they were a little tight when I bought them. Now they are very loose. I need to wear a belt with them. Crap, I can't afford to lose any more weight. I was already very skinny before I lost this weight. My secret...no snacks between meals and eat lots of pasta. Some exercise, but always busy.
FYI: I just wanted to let those who aren't native English speakers know I used the wrong
I though many of you would like to read this. I saw a similar, but different article in FT on July 28th entitled "A cautionary tale from China".

This must be the bust of the century . Imagine the danger of all that contraband being consumed. This must be the "A" team at work.

Who is stranger? MJ or all these people/fans who are morning his passing or celebrating his life or can't get over his passing. I see all these interviews on the major morning shows on major tv stations in the US of everyday people. Don't get me wrong he was extremely talented and changed music forever.

Updated: June 9, 2009, 8:04 PM EDT The third time may be the charm for Mike Tyson.
The former heavyweight boxing champion married girlfriend Lakiha Spicer in a ceremony at La Bella Wedding Chapel at the Las Vegas Hilton hotel on Saturday night, according to a spokesperson for the chapel.

The spokesperson for the chapel told BoxingScene that only Tyson and Spicer were present
Do you know what it is? Is the media elsewhere as transfixed on it as they are in the eastern US? Have you sent one? Have you received one? Do you know it is illegal here and could ruin a jr high or highschooler's life?
I got a good laugh out of this one where it says the following..... "after eating 29 other contenders". She must have been very hungry. I wonder if they tasted delicious or not.

I saw Iron Mike on late night tv. He is very out of shape and has this strange tribal tatoo on the left side of his face going under and over his eye and back toward his ear. Surprisingly he sounded pleasant and close to intelligent. He still has a lisp, but nothing like it used to be.
I think it is great that people post job opennings on TF so I thank those that do.
I didn't want to ruin her journal job posting http://www.thailandfriends.com/index.php?op=modload&name=Journal&view=journal&juid=72330&jid=64752 and I have seen similar requirements, but I wonder why the job requires the applicant to be Female. Can anyone tell me?

My favorite is I am talking with Asians (they also live in Asia) I know in the real world and next thing I know they change there status to "Away" or "Busy". No notice or anything and I am sitting there like an A-hole waiting for them to come back. Many times they never come back. Is this just an Asian thing or is it universal?
Since most people couldn't read my journal here it is again. This time Updated
It took me years here to get my first kiss. It finally came in December 2008. Now I have gotten a 2 more....one a few days ago and another 2 days ago. I must have a secret admirer. Who is she ???? Notice I wrote "she" not "he" as I am not that kind of guy. Maybe she will come out of hiding...maybe not. Who knows, maybe the start of something special. Ok, time to stop blabbing.
A couple more kisses today. Oh my bu
It took me years here to get my first kiss. It finally came in December 2008. Now I have gotten a few more. Today another. I must have a secret admirer. Who is she ???? Notice I wrote "she" not "he" as I am not that kind of guy. Maybe she will come out of hiding...maybe not. Who knows, maybe the start of something special. Ok, time to stop blabbing.
Today I am very much a smitten. Someone sent me my first virtual kiss. So sad I can not see who sent it since I am not a premium member. I just hope it was a "she" rather than a "he" who sent it. Maybe it is a "hot" she, maybe not.
Any one want to come clean?
In today's paper I read the US gave $28 billion in foreign aid in 2008 to more than 150 countries. Did we miss giving anyone a free lunch? This excludes funds related to the Iraq and Afganastan wars. The top receiver was Isreal ($2.4 billion) mostly to buy weapons. This number will rise to $3 billion per year for 10 years. The second winner was Egypt ($1.7 billion, including $1.3 billion for weapons). The third winner was Pakistan ($800 million) followed by Jordan ($700 million), Kenya ($6
Here is one tax cut idea Obama is floating. Like I knew was going to be the case, I will not be eligible. What a surprise.
But in talking about his economic recovery package, Obama has mentioned his campaign promise to offer a "net tax cut" for "95% of American workers."
One option that could get Obama a good way toward that 95% is his proposed Making Work Pay credit -- a centerpiece promise in his campaign. The credit would essentially work as a payroll tax credit equal to $500 for individu
Obama is ready to pick your pocket. Spread the wealth. What a mistake electing him. His friend and my governor have the same style and beliefs and the governor is a flop. Both guys tricked voters into voting for them and neither have a position on anything except give money away to any group that asks.
I am wondering if it is cheaper to buy a big screen LCD tv in Thailand than in the US. Do you know of any websites of Thai electronic stores I can check? I am looking for a sony. In the US they are kdl-52xbr4, kdl-52xbr5, kdl-52xbr3, kdl-52xbr2.
