Good luck on this! What gym do you go to? California Wow? If not, I hear it is fantastic in your city. Now up to 300,000,000 in Mega Millions. If you win, can I have a new motorcycle? Well, considering I broke my first resolution Jan 1, I would like to get in the running for the prize. This is one of my goals this year! I hope I can do it. Good luck with your success as well! I think that is a good goal to have. How about after you have finished drinking? Is that OK?

Didn't the recent released videos show that the Red's didn't cause the fire at Central?

The Reds are going to keep going. Some time has gone by but now is the peak of high season. Wasn't that the Yellow Shirts goal? Interrupt tourism? Perhaps the Reds have learned.

LOL I have not heard that before. Can I adopt your motto?

No one's e-mail address is visible to Google UNLESS they post it in a thread like this one and say: contact me@. I never do that with my personal e-mail. Anything that is posted is visible. Facebook has started to crawl sites. IMHO, they are getting ready to compete with Google and Yahoo full force. They have tons of cash and want to spend it making money. I don't like their privacy concerns and I get pissed off when they change the policy but don't let me choose what to show.

Public taxis are cheap and easy to find and use. You should have no problem. Around 500 baht is correct. Depending on your travel times, Bell Taxi Service is great. Picks you up from the airport and drops you at the hotel for like 200 baht. http://www.belltravelservice.com/reservation.php

In Bangkok, try Hero Massage in the afternoons. It is divine. At night, Dream Boys and Tawan may be to your liking. In Pattaya, Funny Boys, BoyzBoyzBoyz may be your place of choice. There is no place in Sunee that is your style but Krazy Dragon is close.

Come one, come all. Happy Place bar in Pattaya!

LOL No, she went home for the holiday. She told me only 2-3 days. She doesn't go home often.

I do own the name. The name should be forwarded to this site. Yes, it would hurt the SEO for a while but it would pick back up. I am glad I am not the only one that thought this was a good idea! Thank you! It is never to late to change IMHO. But, there may be an uprising!

Lucky, Having spent a great deal of time in St. George, this does not surprise me. There is an active gay community there and lots of gay closets. I hook up every time I am there and I am there several times a year. Plus, it is very close to Las Vegas.

Who said I was gay? My boyfriend is gay. I'm not!

Well, we love you posting here. But, I understand NYC. It is pretty amazing isn't it?

This was from my balcony!

Thank you for that article. I would love for this to happen! I have been a huge fan and think the wedding would be great. Do you have your invitation yet? Mine hasn't arrived yet but I am assuming they will wait till closer to the date?

Thank you! Happy New Year to You as well. Since you brought up ABBA. What are you thoughts on a reunion? I'd love it! Agnetha comments fuel rise in Abba reunion rumours Bookmaker posts odds of 66-1 for a royal wedding performance after Agnetha Fältskog says Abba 'could consider' re-forming for a one-off concert in 2011 Could Abba reunite for Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding? Rumours are swirling after singer Agnetha Fältskog said the group "could consider" getting together for a one-off concert next year, with bookmakers posting new odds for a royal wedding performance. "It would be fun to get together," Fältskog said. "It is just a feeling I have." http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2010/dec/31/abba-re-form-royal-wedding

My friend tells me he is adorable! The teen girl crowd is going to love him.

I personally hate the TSA and its policies. But, I agree, I would not mind a more serious screen, similar to Israel, if it was well done and I felt safer. As it is now, I feel find every time I fly. I hope that continues.

Admittedly, this was my favorite! Thanks for all your comments. We have placed a temporary name on the forum. This site was almost named Hooboy.com. I like the name and thought it appropriate. I caved in years ago as many said it was be offensive to others on the other site. I listened and regretted it ever since. Hooboy was a dear friend and someone I cared for a great deal. Naming this forum for him from time to time is something I feel very appropriate to the site.

Lucky, thank you so much for your enthusiasm. You have and continue to contribute a great deal to the site. Thank you for all you do! It was great having this forum named for you since the challenge. I hope we are all going to continue working to make the site better and more entertaining for all of us.

This is a video I took last night from my balcony. It is only 2 minutes long but gives you a good idea of the party going on last night. Naturally, this went on for a bit and even when daylight broke, the sound of fireworks were booming. I went to breakfast in Jomtien at Pappa David's and my ride there was filled with guys and dolls on the street finishing up their party from the night before. Thailand is wild on New Year's. I hope some of you that are away from LOS this year get a smile on your face from this video! Happy New Year to ALL! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XklK7w8NfvU ps. Special thanks to Firecat for finding me this apartment as it has the best view ever for New Years!

From CNET: Technology Thailand 2011: Year of Thailand's online social awakening Jan 1, 2011 09:41 2010 was a pretty good year with regards to tech innovation and product releases in Thailand. We saw the release of multiple tablets from Apple's iPad to local brands like Wellcom's A800 and Samsung's Galaxy Tab. We were disappointed yet again with the postponement of our 3G auction but were somewhat comforted with MNP and the expansion of current 3G "test area" coverage. Society and politics, depending on how long you've been around and how much you can recall about the past 3 decades, seemed to regress or remain stuck in its depressing loop. However, there was one very interesting development in Thai online behavior, which seemed to go against the grain of what usually happens in the real world. Thais have become more aware of the power of social networks like Twitter, FourSquare and Facebook. From political discourse to online vigilantism (not necessarily a bad thing considering our history of questionable justice) to support for their favorite public figure, the masses have been drawing attention to events and issues which normally would be overlooked or muffled by traditional media. As the year came to an end, we saw a horrific accident appear in the news. A minor from an influential family (whose name will not be reported here as she is a minor) was illegally driving a car on one of Bangkok's elevated tollways. She had lost control of her car during a overtaking maneuver which caused it to slam into a passenger van causing a high speed accident flinging at least 8 people out of the van to the tragic end on to the streets way down below. Normally, this would be considered a tragic accident which was caused by an unfortunate series of event involving a privileged minor, which is not uncommon. But sadly for the minor, her actions right after the accidents were captured and publicized for better or for worse. Despite the questionable legality of publicizing a case involving and personal details involving of minor, pictures of the minor tapping away seemingly nonchalantly on her Blackberry and subsequent screen captures of her Facebook wall interactions which appeared to show someone with callous indifference for the loss of life and indifference. A Facebook page dedicated to holding her accountable, as soon as it was revealed that the minor would be fined only 400 baht for careless driving, soon popped up and chain emails with the incident's grisly pictures were soon making rounds in people's inboxes. Never mind that the case could still be pending and that it was an accident due to carelessness and not premeditated act of murder. Never mind that it was caused by a minor. It could have been disdain for her immediate actions at the scene of the accident, online or perception of her attitude towards the whole situation. It could also be that the public has had enough with rule bending by privileged members of society. Maybe this latest incident was an ugly reminder of a previous auto-related incident perpetrated by another privileged soul which saw people mowed down on sidewalks due to road rage. A new precedent is being sent with regards to social responsibility and its been set by the new generation who have taken it to the online world. It had been said that today's youths were interested in only their online world and did not care what happened in the real world. We are now seeing that those words uttered by a generation oblivious to what really happens online proven wrong and that youths are holding them responsible for their inactions in the real world. Its a new world out there and those who choose to ignore or remain behind are going to be surprised in the worst possible way. http://asia.cnet.com/blogs/technology-thailand/post.htm?id=63022309&scid=rvhm_ms

Thank you for this link Chris. I enjoyed watching this.

That is a pretty nasty statement. Many of the bars and gogo's follow the law and do not need to be raided. If they are, I hope the boys in brown also raid those in Boyztown, Walking Street, Soi 6, Jomtien and every other area of Pattaya. I am not sure why think think that gay bars have more yaba workers than other bars. It is not the case. It is, IMHO, only the amount being paid, or lack thereof, that causes these raids. But, only time will tell. If there is a newspaper article on this, perhaps we will learn more behind the reason of the raid. However, there is not one newspaper in Pattaya I would trust to give a total reliable unbiased opinion of anything. I might even expand that statement to any newspaper in Thailand.
