I looked into booking the Le Meridien for the first week of January. It's $300 US a night including breakfast. Yet when I used the Marriott website to book it, they responded that I needed to choose another guarantee method. I have no idea what they are talking about.

The novel, Bangkok 8, is well worth reading for Thailand fans. John Burdett wrote it.

I guess what the bill should be. If it is close to that, I just pay it without further inquiry.

Is there a secret meaning to the headline? If not, where is 20239?

The dollar is up to 36 baht value, so the rates are slightly more affordable than they were just last week. If you have dollars, that is!

I don't know, but I am looking for a top hotel near Sathorn, one that has delectable morning buffets. So can I join in your thread?

Last weekend in SP was marginal, but I am now having a great time in Rio. 117 tonight was superb.

If you suck a guy with this med on his penis, will it make your tongue hard?

See the first post in the thread.

I suppose that might diminish the reviews. I'll take another look.

At tripadvisor.com, the Dandy Daan rates higher than the Courtyard, and many comment on the good breakfast. Still contemplating this one.

I still have a photo of me with my arm around Lukas Ridgeston when he appeared in NYC. And I won't forget flying with him and Johann from NYC to SF on a red eye. We all slept! (sort of togther! Just different rows!)

Do guys wear shorts in this warmer weather?

You are a lucky man, @numazu

So an American T-Mobile phone works fine for Brazil without a local sim card? You can make local calls and Uber requests? Sorry, but I am ignorant on this issue.

Is Ambiance Hotel still okay as a place to stay? I used to like it and stayed there several times. As for the old beach, there was once a pedophile section. I only realized this as I was walking by and a young boy was on the lap of an old man asking him if he wanted to fuck. You don't see that anymore, which is a good thing!

Why?

Just so I am clear, I understand a not guilty verdict. The jury decided that the evidence to convict Spacey could not be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. That doesn't mean they think Spacey didn't do it, it just wasn't proven. I have no idea what they think, but Spacey being acquitted is not Spacey being cleared.

A finding of 'not guilty," desirable as it may be, is not a finding of innocence.

I loved the Millenium Hilton hotel on the Chao Praya river in Bangkok. Maybe a few nights there enjoying the river and its surroundings would be a good diversion. I could watch the boat traffic for hours.

The Dandy Daan doesn't do a great breakfast? Hmm. That's the heart of my day foodwise when traveling in Asia as I am a midwestern guy.

Forgot to mention that I have been to Ayutthaya...as well as River Kwai. Hua Hin sounds promising...

Sure, I know it has been discussed before, but I would like to break up my Bangkok stay by taking a long weekend to see somewhere else. Convenience is a factor. Pattaya is one possibility, but I have been there so many times and find it tacky. What other possibilities exist? I have been to Chaing Mai and Phuket. Any ideas? Not sure that attractive guys will be a big attraction...

I wonder if you will have any competition.

No matter the price, after reading about the joy of cashew chicken at Foodland, I am going to try it on my next visit. I will ask for the Vinapu special!
