Thais not smart people
This is much better analysis than resorting to calling Thais stupid and I agree with most of what you just said. as for coup military must take into consideration that times when coups were in fashion are long gone and it's why they are showing some restraint so far . They must weight world's opinion a bit. Amnesty plan not only irritated yellow shirts , but red shirts too as people guilty of massacres of their people would be part of amnesty as well, this miscalculation backfired unexpectedly for Yingluck and her brother , but this is just politics.

Thais not smart people
exactly , did not want to say this in order not to be offensive but we need to remember that few weeks ago USA government was shut down for lack of funds to pay its way to astonishment to whole world. Will we be calling America people stupid because they tolerate this?

Thais not smart people
stupid people are one making stupid remarks and stereotyping others, if we take deep look at our own societies , don't you think that others may see us and our countries as stupid ? Each country and society has flaws in eyes of others. Thailand is one of those 50/50 societies , the same like USA at the moment for example. They are many countries where politicians wrecked them to applause of general population - look at European history of XX century and figures like Hitler or Milosevic and their legacy, both were greatly supported by their own people

Likely he wants to keep his BKK post without getting acquainted with penal system like happened to few others in not so distant past.

Visa run advice?
Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Burma and Indonesia are cheap countries to travel but I have no idea about process of obtaining Thai visa from there. Vietnam visa may be expensive, other 4 is 20 -25 $, check if you need visa for Indonesia as German. I'd pick up Cambodia out of those 5 but all of them are worth trouble and expense Hope others on the forum will be more helpful.

The new Gay Thailand Web Site
I look at it as quite dangerous job, going with strangers of unknown health status to unknown places in order to conduct business. Will never forget terror in eyes of diminutive boy offed by farang five times his weight from one of soi Twilight bars few years ago. It turned out well though, next day I saw boy happy back in his bar, bought him a drink and asked how farang was- it turned he just wanted sleep companion. But that look of boy's face night before stays with my memory.

"Standing Up for Less Democracy"
in the end reason will prevail but is end near? Nothing points to it. It just another case of politicians trying to pump water into nation heads for their own ends. Great insights from Mr. Fuller on deification of monarchy, thanks Bob for an article

Quote function - question for computer literates
This is what I'm doing but having more idle time on Sunday I just got curious if others have the same tribulations , glad to see that's the case Thank all three of you for your help, I'm not worried anymore as long as it works somehow. It has advantages as i can read the board on Chrome and bid on e-bay on IE

Quote function - question for computer literates
Mine experience is exactly the same, I have Windows 7 so it must be latest version of IE. It's always nice to learn that others have the same issues, as it must be wider problem and bigger chance Microsoft will do something with it.

Quote function - question for computer literates
When browsing forum using Google Chrome works perfect, when switched to Internet Explorer11 'Quote' function doesn't work, it's just the same like 'reply ' function and is not showing post I'm quoting. Any idea what is wrong with me or my computer? Worked perfect before upgrade

Dongtan Gay Beach
I did not sit there as sworn beach hater but tried their food offerings and everything was cheap and delicious. It's easy to find - Tui's place on your right and you will see rainbow flags. On your way back stop at Derby massage close to Jomtien Complex and have massage with Wat, almost 40 with body of 22

Trip to Sri Lanka
wrong , at least in my case, only travel business class when upgraded / only twice in my life, on long trips thanks God/, sometimes 1 class by train if price still cheap. Travelling lower classes is better if one wants to meet local people and get a grip of how they live. As one flight attendant put it neatly- all classes will depart and arrive at the same time

ONLY A GAY PERSON WILL UNDERSTAND THE AGONY I'M GOING THRU.
Bob, I don't believe you wanted to say that Like all of us he can, he should and he must distinguish between those two. Well trained professionals, well meaning friends and street wise strangers can only do and tell us that much . At end of day it is us who will be living with our choices, either made under influence of others or made solely by us because we did not want to hear what others have to say.

Adding an avatar
Blame me , not kokopelli, I put avatar to make sure instruction given to you works, it worked so he commented on my new avatar, I responded and conversation kept rolling - threads are derailed from time to time , the same as every other conversation. You kind of overreacting I guess but my apologies we made you upset vinapu
