Re: Anything going on during Water Festival?
That was more than ten years ago, and has little bearing on what goes on these days with the boring convoys of cars that race around the city..

Re: Educating the masses during flood times
I was just wondering if any educational messages are going out from the TV stations. Anybody know? There's a huge drive in place to try and help the millions of rural peasants from being electro-mo-cuted by the 12 volt car batteries that they use at home. Some of these folks have actually contracte...

Re: horribly boring visa and passport question
Vlad and Buscador are correct, the 6 month rule has applied for at least 20 years in many a country. Uncle Monty, Vlad and Buscador are correct, sort it out dude, or prepare to go to jail soon. Don't get too bothered, they won't rape your ass or anything, but they'll get you to pay above the normal...

Re: Gadaffi captured
He was caught alive, pleading "Don't shoot". Now mysteriously deceased. One son also caught alive, now dead. Other one will be soon. Obviously can't be arsed with the machinations of the judiciary system, these Libyans. You can't really blame them. The turn the other cheek idea is nice, but when yo...

We discussed that before. If he commutes by helicopter, he couldn't go to work very often, and besides that, who has ever seen a helicopter land near Independence Monument?Gary Gilmour's Eyes wrote: He commutes by helicopter.

Re: For Sale Yamaha DT 175cc
They are just an older series of road/dirt bike, used to be common in the 1980s. I didn't realize they were made till quite recently.

Re: Need advice on what kind of teaching jobs I could go for
To be honest, I don't even know which are the "top schools". I always forget the name of one (Westbridge, or... damn always slips my mind) and the other is Ace. I think you mean Northbridge. You can't really compare International schools like Northbridge or ISPP with ACE, which is basically just a ...

Re: New York doctor held in Cambodia accused of sex with 14y
It is a wholly Machiavellian regime; pragmatic and self serving. In Cambodia you can not believe anything you see in the media. You can not believe anything the government tell you. Are we on the same planet? Have you been here or do you just get that stuff off the internet? I don't believe they ne...

Re: New York doctor held in Cambodia accused of sex with 14y
'Guilty Until Proven Innocent' It is disturbing when commentators in the US or the UK instantly assume guilt whenever one is accused of a sex-crime. It is astonishing when the assumption is made by Westerners living in, or familiar with the corrupt Cambodian justice system. A system in which virtua...

Re: Is live music killing Sharkies?
The day of the Big Fight, when the group I was with somehow precipitated what turned out to be an all-out brawl between the Vietnamese and Khmer girls ending when shots were fired into the ceiling by the security dude, started its descent in my eyes. All the regular waitresses but one were sacked, ...
