Interesting that not one single person in the survey found homosexuality acceptable. That worries me a great deal!

You can help me out by telling me what exactly a swf tag is? Is it an image?

I knew that he would start to get more, "hey baby, why not come visit us" from those that want to court him or his sister. But, your scenario never occurred to me. He would be a hero if that happened wouldn't he? Then again, what if he were the one behind it to begin with?

They should. But, as they say, there is a sucker born every minute. Hey, can I get someone to pay my way to the Black and Blue weekend this year?

Would you agree that a majority of Mexican's in USA have not assimilated either? It this at their own decision or by forced circumstances?

I am a multitask kind of guy. Been there several times for the Ribs. But, you are right, we are going to try it again for the hamburgers. I think I have had the ribs there every time I go. You would like them (messy, juicy and full of protein).

Stop 2: Bully's Pub When trying to find Bangkok's Best Burger, we will have to go to about 10 or more places. I have been to a few but never wrote a proper review. So, I'll try some old favorites again. We have heard great things about Bully's and I have been there before as it is next to the J.W. Marriott and I ate there several times over the years. Nighttime gets crazy so we decided to check out Bully's during the day. Bully's is a sports pub and it has 3 pool tables which my boys loved. They played 5 or 6 games while we were there. The tables were well kept and clean and the ladies racked the balls for them. I had the Bully's Burger with Egg and Cheese and mushrooms. (170 basic but 20 for each additional ingredient) The BF had the Cowboy Burger (180) and our friend had a BBQ Burger (201). We all agreed that the burgers were excellent. I gave my burger a 4.5 out of 5 and the BF gave his a 5 our of 5 and our friend gave it a 4.5. So, overall, we would say this place is a 4.7 our of 5. The fries were good and the cold slaw was good as well. The burger prices were very reasonable at 190 - 220 baht each. The drinks were high with cokes at 75 baht, and beer up to 190 baht for Corona (my BF's choice). All in all, the place is very comfortable to eat and hang out. We all had a very nice time there and all want to return. The service was fast and friendly and the food was tasty. http://www.bullysbangkok.com/ Sukhumvit Road, Between Soi 2 & 4 Next to the J.W.

Your photos make it easy to find! Thank you for the report and the link! Keep playing!

Yes, I wait and I wait and I wait. I started coming here many years ago and these visa runs are killers. When they did the 30 days at the border, I did one every 30 days. It was a real PITA. Now, I have cut it down to 90 days. Better for sure, but I'd love to be able to stay for 5 or 6 months with no worries of doing a visa run.

I have a one year Multiple Entry. That lets me stay for 90 days and then I have to leave and return. The people who were from USA got 15 days at border. The ones from Brazil got 90 days. Other countries get different number of days depending on the agreements. There were lots of students on the trip or so it seemed, so maybe they have to leave every 90 days as well? There were several young people who were just going for 15 days from USA.

I tasted the Ribs and did not like them either. But, that was my expectation. Good ribs are hard to come by.

Looks like an interesting movie. Here is one of the stars.

LOL I usually post cordial thoughts. But, I don't go blind. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I hope you have fun with the forum. Honestly, I do. I was only saying that you got your feelings very hurt once before. I hope that doesn't happen again. I hope that was not uncordial (new word).

be careful!

Microsoft takes a swipe at Google. LOL

I use Omni Focus as it is amazing! You need to buy both the IPad version and one for your desktop but both are worth the cost. IMHO I love playing Angry Birds and Crossword Puzzle the most. I also have several other games the boys love to play when they get the device. They have a cool chess game. I use Kindle all the time. It is free. Fandango is great if you are into movies. Evernote if you have an account with them (one of the best products on the net IMHO). Google Voice is great! Sign up and download. Shazam is a app that you let it listen to some music and it will search the database and tell you what song it is and how to buy it and who sung it. Speedtest.net is great for hotels as I always use it before I check into a hotel to see if their wifi is really high speed. Flight Control HD is one of my fav games. It is so much fun and addicting. Clock Pro HD is also a great clock program with alarms and many different kinds of clocks. Penultimate if you like to write and not type. It is great to use from time to time when I am taking notes. Veggie Samurai is a fun game that everyone loves. Skype is good if you have an account as I use this on my IPad often. There are just a few of my favorite things.

The boys and I have set out to find the best Hamburger joints in Bangkok. I know of some we are going to test, but if you have others to recommend, please let me know and I'll try to go. Stop 1: Duke's Express Emporium Shopping Mall, 5th Fl., Tel: 087-002-9214, Website: www.dukesbangkok.com This place is tucked away at the back of the 5th floor food court. I have been to Emporium many times and never seen it. You need to walk all the way to the back of the court to find it. It has only 7 tables and it small, but it is worth trying. The group: it was me and my two boys that live with me but 2 Thai friends from Pattaya. I ordered Joe's Famous Burger. It has Blue Cheese, Bacon, Grilled Onion, Lettuce, Tomato and Horseradish Mayonnaise 245 Baht. My side item was Onion Rings. The burger was very good. The meat was tasty but a bit overcooked for me. I like to see some pink and I told the lady that but it was well-done. Still, I loved the taste of the Blue Cheese on the burger. I gave my burger a 3.5 our of 5. The boys had another burger, the Fish and Chips, Lasagna and Ribs. They all gave their meals a 4 our of 5. They all had fries with their drinks and they gave a separate 1 our of 5 to the fries. The fries were not cooked well, soggy and just not tasty. Not one person finished the fries. We all ordered drinks and the boys got Heineken's. The total cost for 5 was 2,000. I tasted the BF's burger (he loves burgers as much as I do) and it was good as well. He got the Va Va Va Boom Burger with Chili, Cheese, Chili Mayonnaise, Onion and Pickles 215 Baht. I liked it as well. We all like our main course and I really liked the onion rings buttermilk battered. None of the boys like the fries. We all agree, we gave Duke's Express a 3.5 out of 5.

I think there is so much hatred for MS that few speak of the things it did do. It brought personal computer software to the masses. They held a monopoly for a while and IMHO, they have made an tremendous impact. Remember DOS? It just turned 30 yesterday. For me, I have to say Google. It did change the way businesses do business. Working for many companies over the years that want higher rankings in Google, there is no company that is successful that does not realize the importance of the Google Search Rankings. Now, they are kicking ass with Google Plus IMHO. It may be a facebook killer. Before Google, I used Dogpile. It was great and gave you lists from a variety of search engines. It was pretty amazing and yet Google kicked ass with the algorithm they came up with. Still today, if you have a company that does anything on the Internet and you don't have a high Google ranking it is because you didn't do the work to get it there. I love Apple and their 73Billion dollar cash pile they have accumulated. I think they are a great company. I think they have had an amazing impact on my daily life as I use their products every day. If they weren't around, I'd still have a PC and it would still work great and I'd do everything the same only with lots of viruses and lets pretty things in my life. But, for me, it has made a big impact. What about the impact of Murdoch's empire? The 100 sites he owns? What about Yahoo? AOL? Who would have thought 20 years ago, AOL would be on its last leg? I grew up with it and still use it as a primary e-mail.

You have heard me talk of my bf for many years. I thought some like like to see a photo of him. Here he is! Maybe others can add photos of their Special Boy?
