  1. "Phuket immigration forgot to put the 90 day Report Slip in my passport on the last extension......." Duhhhhhh, your fault for not checking before leaving Immigration. Always check for accuracy and completion of forms and stamps BEFORE leaving Immigration. I had them switch my 90 form for another person's. Yepper, looked at the 90 form they stapled in my passport as I was walking out the door and I noticed it wasn't my name on it. I had another occurrence where my extension stamp wasn't initialized by the big boss. I noticed and questioned this before I left Immigration. I got a 'sorry', they took my passport back, and after waiting another 15 minutes it was returned to me with the stamp being initialed as required. Just because they made mistakes doesn't mean that will be a useable excuse when you are found to be overstaying.
  2. Too funny..... I bought my first fake Rolex about 30 years ago in Patpong. If memory serves me correctly he wanted nearly 2k THB but I haggled him down to 300.
  3. Take the whole gel pack instead of half and that small woody would have turned into a large redwood.
  4. Deport the ASEANNOW members who post the most senseless and stupid replies!
  5. That isn't so accurate. I say that as I just looked at the wind for the entire month of April and it doesn't show where Nan experienced some heavy winds last week. So heavy that trees were toppled and some roofs went flying. ...and for the OP: You should identify the description of the house in question. Some of these stick shacks considered to be a house would topple with one small breath of the Big Bad Wolf.
  6. Cool story bro, is that the best you got?
  7. I believe I have posted this before. Occurred in my mooban about 4 years ago.
  8. Who in their right mind would ever think about getting in one of those nasty canals? So he must of been either drunk or on drugs. RIP....
  9. Hmmmmm, isn't New Zealand an island? (Two actually, North & South)..... So how many in total have died on NZ?
  10. In the USA neighbors shoot neighbors over loud music and barking dogs......... why not expect the same throughout the rest of the world?
  11. I agree with what you are saying but the companies these days don't care about older models as they like to conjure up newer models with more bells and whistles in order to bring in consistent revenue year-year. (Think iPhone) ThinkPads are great, even back in the IBM days. I still have a couple that work great. The problem when IBM had them was that IBM didn't care about the consumer PC market as they were focused on their mid-to-large mainframes and services. As an ex-IBM employee I was fully aware.
  12. "So it could just be my immigration guy had a bug up his ass. " "Think you will find it depends on the immigration office." I thought it has been identified numerous times before: It doesn't matter what the rules/laws are because it can change at any time due to: - Immigration office location - Immigration officer processing the application - Mood of the Immigration officer processing the application - Applicant's behavior - Moon phase
  13. To the OP...... trash it and buy a real computer..... HP Is rubbish and I'll never buy another HP product again!
  14. Every product has an 'end of life'...... The better companies usually announce when that occurs and when will be the last time service/parts will be available.
  15. Seen that joke on Facebook weeks ago!
  16. Maybe Thailand should check out these guys, they're supposed to be the experts: https://www.ciwm.cc/en/
  17. I actually have a few pics of the tunnels under the concourse. I was in the airport the first week it opened. Back then there was no designated smoking areas made yet. Being a smoker and at the gate I decided to find a place to smoke where nobody would be bothered. I saw a staircase leading down and started going down the stairs where I came to a platform with a closed door. Looking on the ground I saw several extinguished cigarettes so I figured I found a good place to have a smoke. While smoking I decided to check the door expecting it to be locked. To my surprise it wasn't locked so I went inside which was nothing but a massive service tunnel under the concourse. I bet with today's security that door isn't accessible.
  18. Maybe they should seek the services of this company. Reading about them they appear to be the experts. https://www.ciwm.cc/en/
  19. Don't believe everything you see on YouTube the Internet. There, I fixed that for you.......
  20. I'm guessing his 'disruptive' behavior is what got him caught. I wonder what he did to gain the unwanted attention?
  21. Public restrooms, sidewalks a person can actually walk on without being injured, and trash bins about....... Things that might make Thailand look a little more respectable.
  22. I just successfully logged into my account...... No VPN and using Chrome.
  23. How did you pay for your purchase months back? Perhaps follow that bit of info and track your source..... Not sure how far back you can go with your phone/PC but perhaps look through your browser history.
