Hello, everybody. My name is Nattaporn. I am Thai and live in Bangkok. I'm looking for the person who want to learn Thai. I can teach you but you should teach me English too.

I was beginning to think you wouldn't get back on that one.

Hi everyone. I'm newbie here wanna know people and make new friends. I try to lean how to use this side. Nice to meet you guys!!

Hello! Helloooooooooo . . . . . ! Anybody in here? ***knock, knock, knock*** HA! Looks like I finally have this website all to myself. And it only took ten years for that to happen! Well, ten years after it started getting quieter here... Since I have the floor, and not that it actually matters, I'm the original Rob here, not Admin Rob. Although my current profile was created in 2009, I joined as _Rob in early 2005. But who cares? There's nobody around to read this anyway! And since there's no one to read this, I can gloat about outlasting some of the old-time trolls who didn't like "older" people on the site, at least one of whom publicly wished me dead. Yep, I'm even older now, ancient, in fact---but still here, white hair and all. But, like I said before, not that it matters. It's like a tree falling in an empty forest. Or a gnat floating on his back down the river while pleasuring himself, yelling, "Raise the bridge, raise the bridge!" Seriously, though . . . there's gotta be at least one wind-up artist out there who checks this site occasionally for signs of life. If so, feel free to leave a nasty comment; it'll make me feel right at home again. I could do a shout-out or two, but I don't want to run the risk of stirring any ghosts. Wow! Having all this cyberspace to myself feels great, so relaxing . . . Almost like taking a nap . . . . hey, I told y'all I'm old anyway! Oh, but nobody was listening . . . Well, time for me to head out of here and re-enter the real world. But I'll be checking in often . . . it's like a little time capsule here, conjuring up only a few knitted eyebrows, but many more happy memories!

First signed up in 2007. TF just popped into my mind and I thought I would check in and see what is happening (Not much by the look of things). Luckily I remembered my password. 😀 Happy Songkran!

Hi Rob Im Getty also known as “Happygetty” ive been a member here since 2004. missed those time before Facebook even exist! I’ve got many friends from here and still in touch with them on FB. good memories, bad memories they all made memories to me that I won’t forget. thank you admin for creating this site, even though now it’s mostly just forum, it’s still here for us to look back and see how we were decade ago. best wishes Getty (happygetty) (g_hibernate)

Here goes mine "QUICK MY HUSBAND IS BACK"

Good morning Tfers!!!! it has been yearssssss!!!

William Heinecke penned the following below in an open letter in the Bangkok Post the other day. Mr. Heinecke is the CEO of a major Thailand-based tourism company. I wanted to respond. One does not need to be targeted to be harmed. I'm sure the two children who died in the Big-C bombing were not targeted. I know he wrote this before the Big-C bombing, and I'm not trying to sensationalize what I'm saying, but when violence continues to show a pattern of escalation, innocent bystanders can and do get hurt. Declaring Thailand safe because tourists are not targets is not doing anyone any service. Richard Barrow has been doing the same up until today too. All of his messages are that things are safe as long as you avoid protest areas. I'm glad that Mr. Barrow has finally decided to begin advising people that they may want to skip Bangkok. https://twitter.com/RichardBarrow/status/438442149919457280 But "safe" is not binary. It is not black or white. Safe is relative. Safe is something you measure on a scale of 1 to 10. The ambassadors that Mr. Heinecke is trying to appeal to understand that because they work in security where threats and risks are measured on a scale. They issue travel advisories and travel warnings when risks rise above an acceptable level. If you read the US Embassy's travel warning for Thailand there is nothing said that is factually incorrect. http://bangkok.usembassy.gov/021414_thailand_travel_alert.html I've read similar advisories from other embassies and they all pretty much follow the same procedure. One also needs to keep in mind that his words appear alongside people cautioning about the outbreak of civil war or a bloody coup in Thailand. However likely or unlikely either of those scenarios are, the fact that locals are talking about the possibility of them happening doesn't really sound like what most people would consider to be a "perfectly safe" place to travel to. That's a debatable statement that Mr. Heinecke provides no proof for. How is a advisory that is factually correct unnecessarily severe? If Mr. Heinecke disputes the facts contained in the travel advisories then he should stick with those facts and ask that the embassies revise their advisories to be more factually correct. While it's unfortunate that many Thais have been impacted by the political unrest going on, tourism is not an entitlement. Nobody should be duped into taking risks they are not willing to take just so the local people in Thailand don't suffer any financial hardship. If someone is uncomfortable with the level of risk in Thailand right now, that is their prerogative and it would be much more comforting if people like Mr. Heinecke understood and addressed their reservations rather than trying to downplay the risks. This is like saying that I should buy an inferior product because the people who make it will suffer financial hardship if I don't. Mr. Heinecke seems to misunderstand the first rule of salesmanship, it's not about what you want, it's about what the customer wants. I think it's also worth pointing out that when tourism is doing well in Thailand, tourists aren't cut many breaks. Weren't Thai authorities recently considering a 500 baht tourist tax? The difference, Mr. Heincke, is that demonstrations like the ones happening in Bangkok are unlikely in Washington or Paris. I'm pretty sure there's a protest in Washington at least every day. Same with London, Frankfurt, or Paris. But, protestors rarely get into gun battles with police. They rarely plant bombs. They rarely throw grenades or explosives into crowds. Protests are rarely moving mobs of people who pop up here and there and thus are unpredictable in terms of where the protest areas are. The bottom line is that demonstrations in Washington and Paris are fairly tame in comparison even if the passions are equal. Police in most western countries are well trained and no demonstration would go on for the length of time the protests in Bangkok have been going on. Protesters would not be allowed to dig in and create an entire support infrastructure (food, sanitation, etc) so they can protest indefinitely. Just like when the Yellow Shirts took over the airport years back. I can't think of a single western country that wouldn't have brought that situation to a close and restored airport operations in a few hours. And that's why Bangkok can't be compared to western countries. The governmental institutions that ensure an orderly society are not on par with western countries. When protesters, yellow or red, can take over major parts of a city for weeks or months on end and the police and the military sit back and do nothing, can they be relied on to protect innocent tourists who may find themselves in a dangerous situation? Those conditions mean that the government has lost control of those areas. Should something happen to a tourist, the government can do nothing to help them. The protestors control entire sections of the city. I've been in Thailand for both the yellow shirt protests (when they captured the airport) and the red shirt protests in 2010. I lived in an area (Ratchaprasong) that was completely under red shirt control. There were no police. There were no emergency services. I had to pass through checkpoints, armed by red shirt guards, to get back to my apartment every night. This simply would not happen, nor be tolerated in Washington or Paris. To make the comparison is to utterly misunderstand why the embassies have issued travel advisories. Specific areas that change frequently. http://www.bangkokpost.com/opinion/opinion/396181/an-open-letter-to-ambassadors-based-in-bangkok.

I hope to visit Bankok and Pattaya during next month. Can someone point me to useful information for a fisrt time traveler to Thailand?

I'm pretty sure all women lower their standards to marry us :-)

Welcome back. How have you been?

Hi all. I enrolled onto this site because I'd like to find someone that is Fluent in Thai that would not mind helping me over Skype with my pronunciation and fluency. As I have just started an online class, but I figure it might be a while to find someone. I am of course willing to help any Thais that would like time to practice English as well or answer questions on grammar, spelling, slang, etc. Feel free to message me anytime, --Pitts

Hey, that's where I live! *sent from my shiny 2nd hand laptop*

After a two-month test of high-tech cameras on two expressways just outside Bangkok, police this week have begun citing motorists caught speeding by the devices. Don’t go too fast on expressway | Bangkok Post: breakingnews

Hi. I'm from Vietnam. This is the first time Ive jointed in this kind of forum. I'd like to make friends with all people. Well, I really do not know how to start at first as a new comer. Another thing, I also want to improve my Eng since it is not so good. Very pleasant to be one of your friends.Tks.

how cultural diversity relevant for transforming organizations into innovative places? what do you think about this idea? is it really relevant?

I think that learning Thai language through Thai song is a good way as music can make you're relaxed. I'll try to find the nice Thai songs to post here. Enjoy learning and watching http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvxDydk_rLs

I like to think that I am pretty much a live and let live kinda guy. Open minded yeah ready to embrace lifes rich diversity, for sure. But this is just taking it too far. I realise that Thailand and SE Asia allows men to practise and explore their own unique fashion style, and hey if Camel active wear, socks with sandels and Snoop Dogg style gold chains do it for you then all well and good. However I have noticed over the past few years a shocking resurgence of the speedo type of swim wear in particular with large Germanic men. Saturday morning lying by the pool snoozing off a few of last nights beverages, a large man in a bright green speedo placed himself directly in my line of vision, it was like a bad car wreck I tried to look away but my morning was already tainted. Anyway for you speedo wearers out there please do the following : 1.Put on Speedo and look in the mirror. 2.Really look!!! And for you speedo wearers out there I have one question, WHY????

As is customary on April 1st of each year many websites post fake products, news, or play a joke on their users. Found any good ones? Kodak Relationshiffft WSOP Adds New Event, Strip Poker Who's got some?

More bad news for Thais :-(

How would you form the correct question tag for the following phrase: "I hope there are no more long texts, .." Would it be: a) arent there ? or arent they ? Thanks for the answer. I would definitely tend to a), as it refers to "texts".

A guy sent PM to you saying nice things, you replied being friendly then you guys keep in touch, chat sometimes. Your freindship growing well, and you feeling got stronger expecting anything further than just friend...till you met in person. The conversation went on naturally on the day you guys first met like you have been friends for so long until he told you that he crushed on your (female) friend and kept talking about her all the rest of that night. What would you do ? Will this hurts you ?

Wouldnt mind having sex with them :oops: :oops:

Why women outlive men.? Women live three or five years longer than men on average in the world, according to the Office of National Statistics. But why?..Have you say ? with men being more reckless in their youth and women choosing a better diet and more exercise. But to fully understand why the fairer sex has a longer innings in life, we take a look at the differences between the sexes. 1.Women tend to have stronger hearts A woman's heart is just as strong at the age of 70 as it is at the age of 17 A study at the university's Research Unit for Human Development and Ageing found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 per cent between the ages of 18 and 70. Could this be the key to a lengthier life expectancy? 2.Women have two X chromosomes Tom Perls, founder of the New England Centenarian Study at Boston University believes that the key to longer life expectancy for women is in the genes. Where women have two X chromosomes, men have one and X and one Y chromosome which, according to Perls, makes men's cells more susceptible to ageing and damage. 3. Women may have more powerful immune systems Researchers at London?s Imperial College School of Medicine conducted a study of men and women aged 20 to 62 and found that the women produced more infection-fighting white blood cells (or T-cells) than their male counterparts. Researcher's discovered that the thymus gland, which produces T-cells, makes fewer cells as people age. Yet older women still had higher levels of new T-cells than men of the same age. 4. Women tend to sleep better than men Women are much better at coping with minor sleep deprivation according to a study by Alexandros Vgontzas of Pennsylvania State University. The stresses of modern day life can often mean that we miss out on valuable sleep, which is key to good health, but it is actually men who suffer from sleep deprivation the most: Vgontzas's research revealed that while women manage to get an average of 70 minutes deep sleep each night, men only managed to ****** 40 minutes. 5. Women generally have healthier diets If you think your man behaves like a caveman - especially when it comes to his eating habits, here?s why. A survey by FoodNet of 14,000 men and women found that men are more likely to eat meat-based dishes while women opt for a variety of foods including fresh fruit, vegetables, nuts, eggs and yogurt. 6. Women remain healthier in order to reproduce The roles that men and women play in the circle of life are very different and may determine why women outlive men. Thomas Perls, a former geriatrician at Harvard Medical School, believes that the menopause protects older women from bearing children in later life and allows them to live long enough to take care of their families. Perls also says that a man' purpose is to ?carry genes that ensure longevity and pass them on to their daughters. Thus, female longevity becomes the force that determines the natural life span of both men and women?. 7. Women are less likely to be smokers Smoking causes around 18% of deaths in adults aged 35 and over every year in the UK, according to the NHS. Shockingly, the NHS estimates that 23% of men will die of a smoking-related disease, compared to 14% of women. :!:

I have never been for a medical checkup before and although I feel fine, one of my resolutions for 2007 is to have one done. Since there is a good number of mature guys here I thought it would be a good place to ask. 1. Is it really important to have a prostate examination done, after 40? 2. How does it feel, both physically and psychologically? (I've never been probed down there). How many fingers are used? 3. Would one be more at ease if the doctor were male or female? 4. Can one self-examine oneself? Or is it easy enough that one's partner can do it?
