Nevermind ... (You can fool some of the people some of the time ...)
“They were in a tough spot,” Victoria Clarke, a Pentagon spokeswoman during the administration of President George W. Bush, told the New York Times. “First reports are always wrong. It's a fundamental truth in military affairs.”
... and if they sat on the reports the yell would have been 'Conspiracy of silence'

Oil price dropped and the baht is now 30.10 to the dollar on ThaiV ... Can we kill him again?
-
How much worse can it get?
I don't know but I guess we'll find out ... Treasury Sec. (Little Timmy) Geithner and the gang haven't as yet called me up to ask my opinion ... maybe you were just too busy to take the call when they called you.

BHO is a narcissistic socialist who is clearly harmful to America.
Yes ... and BHO will be narcissistically and socializingly harming America for a minimum of another 624 days until the 2013 Presidential Inauguration and then for 4 more years unless the GOP can come up with an adult (maybe IN Gov. Mitch Daniels?) who can beat him...
meanwhile you can hide out in your bunker in CM.

The New York Times is currently running a story:
‘Job Well Done,’ Obama Tells Assault Team
http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/05/06/job-well-done-obama-tells-assault-team/?hp
The comment session is open and as of now there are no comments -- you guys on the fringe now have a chance to join THE BIG SHOW instead of your usual back-water (apologies to George)
http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/05/06/job-well-done-obama-tells-assault-team/?hp#postComment
BTW comments are pre-moderated rather than the post-moderated you are used to on ThVi.

Bakery supply shop ... they usually carry Gelita-brand imported from Germany

many skilled people could really make a difference here, but they are forbidden by some of the craziest laws i have ever seen, denying this it's not going to help,
A few years back after many KFC stores were set afire in India, some high-level government person said (in effect) "We welcome people to come to India for technology transfer ... we already know how to make fried chicken."
If you are a truly skilled person with proper credentials it is possible in many circumstances to work out an arrangement ... the 'expert extension' under the present guidelines does not allow one to self-proclaim that 'I am an expert at ...' or the 'I'm a swell fella' exemption to work permit.

I'm fortunate that I found one of the few honest Thai womento be my partner. She really lives the Buddhist's way.
Honest? Icouldn'tlivewithawomanwhotookawaymyspacebar.

It's been swell visiting with you fellas but Planet Earth is a-callin' -- just my version of 'Next?' or 'Good Day' (kudos to Paul Harvey)

As long as now we are looking for 'reason and logic' how about the following -- staged on the order of 'Springtime for Hitler'/ from The Producers:

(Sung to the tune, “How Are Things in Glocca Morra?”)
By Bill Britton
How are things in Tora Bora?
Is that Saudi creep still sleeping there?
Does he miss his friends in Khanabad,
in Kabul town, or in sandy Kandahar?
How are things in Tora Bora?
Are the Daisy Cutters still dropping there?
Is his turban still pulled o'er his ears?
Is there a need each day
to change his underwear,
does he really care not to breathe fresh air?
So I ask the Special Forces
and Marines along the way,
and each goat that comes a-singin'
"Yea, yea, yea":
Is it time for O bin Laden's auto-de-fe?

Why don't they grow some balls ( the government )...
Why don't you grow some first and show 'em how it's done.
... when gambling is found in a place like the Esplanade it usually means someone hasn't been making their payoffs.

All deemed fakes long ago
The photo I would like to see is when the gent goes to the nearby Coronado, CA SEAL outpost and informs the fellas that they have have all been played for saps by that ZObama guy.

You should give that "Next" back to the guy you borrowed it from.(Naam)
Its not working for you.....
I agree "Good Day" is the much better door-slammer that you frequently use as the be-all and end-all of conversation.
-
Based upon the information supplied you should join with whomever first makes you an offer.

I guess the more important question would be why anyone wants to attend a company party anyway
Only the creme de la creme of Thai society attended the party in question ... just as Mr. Forbes is able to observe all manner and strata of Thai society from his vantage point of the Bah-farang in CM.
-
from #45 You completely miss the point. It has nothing to do with out-classing anybody... I do not think I missed any point ... Maybe they DID go to the same schools or better even schools ... I maybe think you guys are sometimes a bunch of rubes.
... maybe an otherwise 'nice' girl just wants some extra baht to help her through Chula Med School or Thammasat Law School ... you would never know and as a farang most likely would never encounter them.
-
A 'bar girl' is a girl who works in venues geared toward the non-Thai speaking farangs ... a girl of dubious virtues who works in an establishment geared 99% toward the affluent Thai male -- if she so wanted -- would in many cases out-class any female at the OP's office.
-
Firstly, how could it be any worse? A photo would shut up a lot of people.
Secondly, the fact that you think your government lies to you and you don't care is quite amazing.
... And if the US DID release a photograph of the departed OBL the first thing the fringe would say is that it is a Photoshop-ped fake.

No....i was busy trying to talk my way out of a felon.
I was busy talking to my banker on the Isle of Man ... Go Gators!

Was not captured..
Right ... and there was a 5.6 Richter earthquake today off the coast of southern Sumatra ... May 05, 2011 at 12:38:37 AM at epicenter (same as BKK) ... did you feel that one TOO?

The BO regime 'stinks'. Always has, always will.
626 days until the next presidential Inauguration of BHO or possibly someone else -- you'll just have to hold your nose until then.

You would not need a Work Permit if all your work is genuinely EX-Thailand. The most desirable Visa/extension arrangement would depend on your ratio of time spent IN- vs. EX-Thailand, age. etc.

from #737: This whole Bin Laden event/fairy tale/diversion is working out very nicely
Once again from the poster de grandeur, everyone has been fooled but himself.
-
Well then since I have gotten to this point, do you have any experience working with extensions of stay via Police Order 777/2551 2.21 'working for public charitable organization'?
BTW the felony charge -- which was dropped -- was not related to alligators: I only consort with alligators past the age of consent.

How would they know? ... He didn't show-up for the weekly poker game...
