I love my IPhone and use it often. My favorite game on it is Twister. I find I can sit and wait for something for hours and play this game. I finally finished all the levels on it and am now Twister Master on the game. Any other recommendations for games?

I had the fortune to eat at this great restaurant for the first time since the move. They are on the road the leads to the beach from Pattaya. The restaurant is directly next door to Manhattan's. I have heard the food was excellent and wanted to give it a try. I ordered the tomato soup which was very good and I ordered the Salmon with vegetables. Both were very tasty, presented very beautifully and delightful to eat. The service was good and the waiters were always ready to help out. All in all a very enjoyable dining experience. The only thing I didn't like was the desert. I ordered the Creme Brulee. It was nothing special and although it was not bad, it was not worth the money they charged for it. My friend had the escargot, a soup, salad and steak. He had the cheesecake and enjoyed it. He said his meal was also very good. The cost for 2 was 2,000 baht. They did not include a service charge so we added it at the end. They are doing the street directly in front of the hotel and they have more work to do with it. That leaves the restaurant very little parking space out front. I am sure the owners were not expecting that when they put in such a nice facility. The restaurant was delightful, had beautiful flowers and nice decoration. The owner did drop by our table to be sure all was OK and it was. All in all, if you are looking for a nice place that is slightly more expensive than your typical Pattaya meal but done with a nice touch of class, give the Mata Hari a try. I really enjoyed it.

I'll be staying overnight in this city with a day to explore the area. Any suggestions on things to see or do that I should not miss out on? Any gay areas or bars?

I spoke to a friend who has a Mac and uses Safari and he said he signs in and tries to post but it tells him he is not logged in. I test this on my computer and did not have the same issue. I also had a few friends test. Is anyone else having this issue? You can e-mail me at gaythailand@gmail.com Thanks.

I had to be in Chiang Mai next week and wanted to come early to enjoy some of the guys here. So, I jumped into a van and had him drive me to Chiang Mai from Pattaya. There were no airports open and I was told the train was a pain so i just hired a van. He arrived on time at 8:30 AM and I got my things into the van and off we went. I tried to lay down and take a nap but he was all over the roads. He was going over 150. I grunted every time we hit a bump but he didn't get the message. So, I asked him nicely to slow down. He did until I closed my eyes and off he went again. We played this game for a long time until I gave up. Unfortunately, he had no seat belts in the back so I would have been thrown to Burma if we had an accident. Luckily, I made it here fine. My back aches from the up and down speed bumps and the road was not as good as I hoped. I did get to see some beautiful temples from the roadway but we didn't stop for any. We ate at a Big C on the way and low and behold I was walking in when the first boy I ever offed from a bar in Thailand said HI. He worked at future boys back then and now I guess he is retired. He was 29 back then and that was 5 years ago. He still looked great and it was so nice to see him. He was with his family and he introduced them to me. He spoke in Thai so I think he said, "this is the sucker who hired a van to drive from Pattaya to Chiang Mai" or something along those lines. Once inside the city, the driver had a hard time finding my hotel. It took over an hour once we were here as he kept stopping and talking to food cart vendors to get directions. At least that is what I think he was doing. I called the hotel on my phone and he spoke to the lady for directions. We did this 5 times before he found the hotel. It is one of the larger ones in the city so I am not sure why no one knew where it was or if it was just him that was lost over and over again. I bought him M150 a few times as that is what he requested when we stopped for a toilet break. Do you think they affected his mind so that he didn't know he was going too fast? 12 hours

Special thanks to TLP for being willing to help us with Moderation. He is a great guy and spends most of his time in Bangkok and the USA and Canada. I met with him when I was in Bangkok for dinner one night and had a great time. I have known him for a few years and though he rarely posts, he is always sending me PM's and e-mails about Thailand. Thanks for being will to help us TLP. This comes at a perfect time as I will be away from computers for about a month and I know GayButton and Stef can use the assistance.

I went to the new bar tonight. It used to be called TopMan. I will say the place had tons of boys and lots of movement. Not too many farang but I was early. The boys seemed to be having a good time and everyone was dancing and moving. I hope this place keeps going and is a tremendous success!

I just spoke to my Representative at Northwest Airline. They said they are issuing refunds and no change fees for anyone needing or wanting to change tickets that are booked up to Dec. 15. She also said that they were getting regular updates and that they are doing all kinds of rebates, exchanges, etc to make sure all passengers are accommodated. I needed to change my ticket and they did so with all fees waived. They have other incentive's as well and are trying to work with everyone.

I had a conversation today that got me to thinking. I said I doubted that the majority of guys traveling to LOS for sex will stop coming. They will keep going to the place they love. However, the country has tried to make families the cornerstone of the tourist industry. When asked today if I would bring my family over here in the next year or two, my answer was a resounding NO. No way would I risk them getting stuck over here or heaven forbid caught up in some other conflict. I would not recommend this for anyone with a family. What about you? Even if you still want to continue to travel to LOS, would you recommend your close family to come?

The economy is struggling in most parts of the world. People have lost retirement investment and their portfolios are down. Many have said they are unable to return to hire escorts as much this year as it is cost prohibitive. We are here are help with our Winter Blues Give-A-Way. The prize: A roundtrip ticket from your city to Thailand, Brazil, Barcelona, Montreal or Amsterdam anytime during 2009. We will get you a American Express Travelers Check or a prepaid ATM for up to 1500 USD. You can use that 1500 for flights, hotels, meals or hiring that special someone. The way to enter: Every day we will tally the number of people that have 3 or more posts. Winner (to be drawn by independent witnesses) must have made 3+ posts, on any given day, and also at least 150 posts over the competition period (Dec 1 – March 31st). To qualify, the posts must be reasonable quality. One or two word posts will not count. While this post is in the main forum, there are other forums here as well and all qualify. In the first week in April, we will have a drawing and the person whose name comes out of the hat will be the winner. Rules* The prize must be taken before December 31, 2009. There is no cash equivalent offered. If the winner is unable to travel in 2009 the prize will be offered to 2nd place and so on. Judges decision will be final. Administrators are ineligible. *The competition and its rules are subject to change if circumstances are beyond our control. Clarification: Everyday we keep a tally. Each day you post 3 or more posts, you get one slip of paper with your name on it. If you post 3 or more posts each day for 10 days, you get 10 slips of paper put into the hat. If you post 3 or more posts for 60 days, you get 60 slips put into the hat. The more days you post 3 or more posts, the more slips of paper you get in the hat as long as you have 150 over the contest period. Thus, the more days you post 3 or more, the more likely you are to have a piece of paper drawn from the hat.

This is the last 2 days for submission of photos for the contest. If you have Smiles are Sexy Thail boys, please submit them in the next 48 hours. Thanks!

I wanted to see the new vampire movie Twilight. I have seen it advertised and really wanted to see it and ended up at Siam Paragon for lunch yesterday. I decided to give it a try. The showing I wanted to see was at the Enigma theater at 1,000 baht a ticket. You must buy 2 in order to go. It is a members only theater with a lounge and private bathrooms. Included in the price of the ticket is appetizers and drinks. It really is a VIP treatment area. The seats are really day bed and are filled with plush pillows and blankets and it was very comfortable. I had been to the VIP theater before at Siam Paragon and they had the reclining seats that were fun and very comfortable. The Enigma is a step up for that! I loved the movie and the theater. I will defiantly go back again but not unless it is a movie I really can't see elsewhere. Siam Paragon theaters are supposed to be the largest that Thailand has with 16 screen and seats for over 5,000.

I am going on a bike trip next month and needed a bike and some shorts for the trip. I was able to buy the bike at Cannondale in Bangkok off of Sumkavit Soi 26. The owners there are amazing, customer service orientated and truly easy to deal with. I found my bike and they helped me to stock it with everything I needed except some clothing for the trip. I then went to ProBike off of Lumpini area and they had some of the things I needed. I ended up buying some things there yesterday but they did not have enough bike shorts for me. Does anyone know of other nice bike shops in Bangkok with a large selection of bicycle shorts and shirts? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I spent at least 10-15 minutes in every bar on Soi Twilight and they were all sad. Few customers and fewer boys. I am not sure if it is the current standoff or just a bad week but the bars are a sad example of what they could be. The prices are too high in EVERY bar. Future Boys was always my favorite. I had a great mamasan and manager I liked. Both are now gone and work across the street. They said that management tried to cut expenses 4 or 5 months ago and ran out all the high paying employees and replaced them with newbies with less experience. Sad as I use to spend a great deal of money there. I walked in and the place had a strong bad odor to it. I did find one guy I wanted to off but he was a waiter. He was not gay. I asked him if he wanted to go with me and he said yes. He said I could smoke him for 3,000 baht. I laughed. I told him I would take him and do massage only and tip him at least 500 bath or a massage and smoke for 1500 baht. He declined both and he was the only one in the place I found hot at all. The other 5 bars I went to last night there was nothing at all I liked. I was really looking for a toned muscle boy with a handsome face. It was not to be found. Admittedly, I have not been to Tawan or Jupiter but will give them a try tonight. After being screwed at Jupiter on more than one occasion I swore I would never return but desperate times lend for desperate measures and will give them a try tonight.

Moving on after a break up is often painful and sad. My long time boyfriend and I have had a falling out. It was over nothing major but it was a very hard thing to do. What I always do when this happens is to give the BF space and distance (and a nice chunk of change). I am in Bangkok so that he is able to settle back into his life without me. I not only lost the number 1 but also the number 2,3 and 4. Damm it was just a really bad week all around. I need a group hug. Well, OK, I did get one tonight in Bangkok but the doormen were hugging too hard and as they hugged, they tried to maneuver my ass into their perspective bars. What do you find is the easiest way for you and for him to move on and yet still be friends? I have yet to have a Thai boyfriend that I did not remain friends with long after the breakup. Is this common or unusual? I find that for me once I care for someone, I never stop caring. I am also able to move on pretty fast as I know what the relationship was build on. I did love my number 1 as we had a very long history together and while I can't rule out a return visit, I think it is best for him, and me, to move on in separate directions.

I hope all of you that celebrate the holiday had a wonderful time. I had one of the most amazing feasts imaginable. It was simply divine. Living part of the year in Thailand, I find I miss some of the holidays. I miss NYC and Halloween the most. I would have said I miss Thanksgiving second but this year the meal was just like my family has and it was a true joy. My favorite part of the meal is the Sweet Potato and Pecan mix. What is yours?

They must get together and talk about what to say to falangs. I took 3 taxis today. 2 our of the 3 all told me how sorry they were the city was dead. They also proceeded to tell me how they only made 100 bath the whole day and business was dead for them. When I got into a taxi outside of Soi Twilight, the taxi did not ask for 100 baht but simply turned the meter on and went to my hotel. Nice to see that happened. I am sure the lack of foreigners coming to the airports is really killing the business in Bangkok. A friend had to fly into Phuket today and take a taxi to Bangkok. Cost 12,000 baht. I guess some lose and some win. I just hope I don't get the 100 baht story all day tomorrow. I am planning a trip to Chiang Mai and consulted a taxi as to the cost as well. It will be around the same to go to Chiang Mai. About 12-14000 baht. I hope the airports open up soon!

I went to Screwboy tonight. There were some boys there but very very very few hotties. One guy was adorable but the rest were average to mild. I remember when this place was packed with boys and they were the most aggressive boys in the area. This time around they just sit and smiled and then their attention went elsewhere. We were the only customers in there for a while when we arrived. The one hottie, I may have to wander back over tomorrow to see him and chat with him. Both me and my friend thought he was sexy. Screwboys is the first place I visited in Thailand where I actually got screwed over. That was 5 or so years ago and I haven't forgotten it but that is another story. It is nice to see them open again and I hope they keep busy.

I went to Boys Bangkok tonight. It was a bit odd as there was No boys on stage and we were told the boys would be down from Dream Boy. They did come down after about 15 minutes. I was told about 100 boys as it was a sight to see. I didn't see it. I looked at the boys and it was a slim selection. Not too many boys and very few true superstars. However, there were some really sexy guys there and I enjoyed the dancing. However, it was nothing like the Dream Boys of the past. When I went before, the stage was crawling with guys. This didn't happen now. I did see the seats were also only half full. When I went to Dream Boys in the past, I often could not get a seat. I wonder if this has to do with the 250 price for drinks? Or, are too many boys leaving as there are few customers? The music was LOUD and the bass moved my seat. It was a techo beat for quite a bit. The bars themselves are VERY well done and clean and professionally run. I went to X boys before this and for the price they were charging for drinks they should not have all the sofas with rips and tears in them. Dream Boys and Boys Bangkok are nicely decorated and comfortable for me. Some of the other bars are not. Did I just go on a slow night? Or, is this now typical of the scene here?
