  1. Had this same problem Phantom, got tired of it, my wife's Lenovo Laptop worked well with Windows. I have an Apple Laptop with OS X version 10.11.3 year 2015. I had enough of this, so took it down to "IT Island" at Fashion Island Mall here in Minburi. They have a ton of these " fix it" stores that these young Thai kids work at.....this one particular kid spoke perfect English. Told him what the problem was, he logged on to his fancy, dancy computer and looked up Thailand 247 for me right? I told him that this particular forum had just changed hosts/servers etc and could that be the problem? Ok cut to the chase here, he said something like "The HSTS vectors are now not compatible with Chrome firewall" or something like that. The went on to tell me a bunch of other things that might be wrong too. He said he will run a complete diagnostics on it and assured me that he will fix the problem, and come back in 30 minutes. Cool kid, asked me if I was married, showed him a pic of wifey on my phone and says to me "Oh, she's younger then you right" Yeah I get that alot......LOL! He also suggested to me that I go down to the first floor and go to the "Playboy" store and talk to the girls there as there are some real nice girls working there and they speak good English. Damn...he was right. 200 baht later wifey now has a "Playboy" T-shirt. The girls told me I am the "only" white guy to come in there in the last week?? OK... Go back, he tells me to log on to Thailand 247 and..........bam! Up and running again. I asked him "Tao Rai Krap"? Tells me 100 baht....I gave him 200 and told him I will be back if I ever need problems fixed for sure. There are certainly some good things here about Thailand.
  2. Bangbrothers? Yeah great web-site. You can't help stupid, once these types of women get a notion in their head, they stick with it no matter what, or what anyone else tells them. You should see what this gal on the left did to herself? Viet coffee girl that I really liked, she went and had a bunch of surgery done before moving to LA to try and get in the modeling business. Not good. Unfortunately I do not have a pic.
  3. Gord, if you are around BKK early Jan, would love to meet up with you again....Mr Smooth is going to be in town and a meet up at Hooters looks inevitable.
  4. Saw Dr. Feelgood, they opened for "Bad Company" in 1976 at Winterland, San Francisco.
  5. Great pics.....hope you have a great time there. HH is a great diversion from all the other places. Enjoy..
  6. Would love to see what the "FL" situation was at this new club. I am thinking that in the girls mind, a new club " Brings The Boys to the Yard" 😇
  7. @Pumpuynarak Cliff, ever heard of this band? Wifey was out wth friends at some shopping place Friday, picked this t-shirt up, she bought me a "Pink Floyd" one.....that is too small. I keep telling her X-large in Thailand is for Thai guys. I need 2 XL.
  8. Glass, March 1976 Saturday night saw "The Who" at Winterland San Francisco, next night was "Chicago" Yep all of the originals, Terry Kath too......these guys in their prime played some real, nice music. Just outstanding. Alan, have seen "Godsmack" in 2004 with my then 17 year old Son. Metallica was the headliner at SAP arena in San Jose. Great band really....did not know any of their music until then. My ex wife told me "Do you think you should be going to these shows with Jason, is this the kind of music you want him listening to"? Shut the f**k up! So glad she is living in a van.......down by the river LOL! The late Chris Farley saying.
  9. Used Cathay Pacific direct to get here a month ago.....it had been about 4 years since getting to Thailand. They had the best price.....but.....here is a question for you all. I noticed an "unbelievable" fair when looking right? Since when did airlines ( maybe just Cathay) start offering fares based on if you have 1 piece of checked in luggage, this is the price, if you have 2 pieces of checked in luggage this is the price? ☹️
  10. Well..........I am buzzed on Wine and wifey is upstairs in the shower LOL! Great dinner tonite. So what happens? Old "hacks" like me start reminiscing about the " good old days" LOL! Monger songs indeed........"And be a simple.... kind of man, oh be something... you love and understand" Yes this version of Skynyrd only has Gary Rossington and Artemis Pyle as originals, but Ronnie Van Zandt's brother sings real well I think....especially on this number. Saw all of the originals March 1976 in San Jose at The Civic Auditorium.....seems like yesterday. Sadly in 1977 alot of the originals went down in that tragic plane crash. This tune still sounds great after all of these years... Ok I promise NOT to go on these Thurs night benders anymore😍
  11. Just saw this..well, always liked these guys and took wifey in July 2021 to see them in Fresno, Calif. Really like what Kelly Hansen had to say. He took over for Lou Gramm( health issues) and was made permanent lead singer in 2005. If you can't sing all of Foreigners material in the right keys and are realistic that you can't do this forever, then the band made the right decision. Class act this guy. I would love to go see them in Las Vegas in March/April 2023 as they are doing an 8 night residency there at The Venetian. The tour will run into 2024, with "International" legs being added. Impact Arena? Doubtful... Few pics from 2021. https://ultimateclassicrock.com/foreigner-farewell-tour/
  12. Well done Eric, Las Vegas is a great place to try out the new "frontier" Like everything in life, you will get "varied" opinions on what is good about Vegas and what is bad. Kind of like The Grateful Dead and Licorice, I don't like either, but I know alot of people who do. When we sold my parents home back in July, Rachanee and I thought about actually buying a home there as we over the years, have just had a blast there. So much to do, some great shows, great buffets, you name it, Las Vegas has it. This is the place, if you are NOT, the "sit around the house type" to live out your golden years. A well thought out plan and execution on your part has turned out well..really happy for you and keep us posted. Can you take one for the team and report back as to how one of the escorts rocked your world? 😇
  13. Dam Stu, well done. Looking forward to my first visit there since 2018 in January. Hoping Mr Smooth and I can lay some "Calif Charm" on these little beauties LOL! I know some guys absolutely hate Hooters....I have always had a good time there and the one at Nana, all the girls have been really cool and engaging. Nana has something for everyone. Good to see you are having a good time in BKK.
  14. Just have to ask, if 2k is not enough for ST, then what would be the price these days? 3k ST? Good to hear Thermae is alive and well. Will probably visit in Jan.....just got to see it for old times sake.
  15. Yeah in Altadena, close to Pasadena in Southern Calif. Good lord, that is alot of money to come into overnight.
  16. Few pics from this past Sunday. The new gym I joined is on the 4th floor at Promenade Mall right? Get done about 1:00pm, going down the escalator to the first floor to where my car is parked, I hear all this commotion down there. Get down there and I thought "Led Zeppelin" with Page/Plant were doing a warm up show to announce a "re-union" tour LOL! Well..not quite, but what we did have was the Thai version of "The Spice Girls" Jesus have never seen anything like this....apparently who ever they are....they are quite popular. Love the Lip Synch though, they put Britney Spears to shame. But wait, the first group came out, threw down a few songs..but the rival group ( girls in black) were not to be outdone LOL! They were cute too. Had enough of this so was walking out to the parking lot....turned to my left and BAM! I had seen they had cars earlier in the week for my last gym visit, did not know they had a few "pretties" here doing poses on Sunday...OK by me. See the girl in black, with her hair in a long ponytail? She looks at me and says in perfect English "Oh, you are the only Caucasian guy here"??? I said "Dai Krap" She tells me she will be at the car show in a few weeks at Impact and have I ever been to one of these? She also told me that there will be some nice looking girls there. Okay....
  17. Great info gents, I still use wifey's friend pictured here. She was here a few weeks ago to get all the things she needed to get my retirement extension done. She told me she is " swamped" with guys from mostly Europe and America getting all their documents ready to marry Thai girls that she had to hire 2 more girls. I asked about the 90 day report that you can do online and she is very open and honest and tells me " It works sometimes, but alot of the time it just doesn't for some reason" Being that she is in the business I asked her " Well......why don't they figure it out and get it fixed so everyone can use it all the time" Then she said to me " Mike, this is Thailand" Oh yeah, I forgot where I am at now LOL!
  18. Waiting for some member of my immediate family, friends or anyone who feels sorry for me, to tell me they won the Powerball Lottery for $1.6 Billion back in America! Biggest Lottery EVER on the planet.
  19. KPI'S? Key Product Indicators? Where I come from, back in the day, that was terminology we used when at work.
  20. Can I get some help here? Wifey tells me Tuesday, some guys will come over and put new "roof" in my man-cave?? WTF are you talking about new roof? They tore out the sheetrock and installed this hardwood flooring type of material. Well......her money, her house. There are some "cultural" things I guess I am just never going to understand. They got here at 8:00am and were done by 6:00pm. These Thai guys crack me up, they work in their "flip flops" They are installing new windows today too....that I agree with LOL!
  21. Salad and Pasta last night here.....quite tasty.
  22. Nice round of pics JL....that gal in the yellow is attractive. Did you ask her if she likes "older guys" LOL!
  23. Last night tried this new fish I had never had here..wifey tells me it is "Pa Gao" Fish. We bought at the Minburi open market last Saturday.......winner winner.
