Re: dark skin and dreadlocks..what can I expect?
The dreadlocks shouldn't be a problem, we have barbers here. And skin-whitening cream is sold everywhere.

Re: More mental driving
They must think I am bonkers for pulling over and talking on my cell, if I even answer it. I have got many strange looks when I step outside of cafes to speak on my phone. Why pull over? I've seen locals stopping in the middle of roundabouts because they have to make very important (probably life-s...

Re: what you get for $X
Don't really know why, but if I right-click on the image placemarks, and choose 'open in a new tab', the pics load just fine. And I'm calling 'bullshit' on the $350 - it looks like an $800 place if I've even seen one...seriously, if it's $350, jump on it... I just tried that and I must say the plac...

It's about time we started using code-words on here. We could charge them for a special K440 Enigma MachineTM if they want to stump up.Playboy wrote: For so many years both the Daily and the Post used 440 as a source and never mentioned us.

Re: Phnom Phen Newsbriefing: Street 282
The Penh is a loony bin where you’ll find outcasts, convicts, pedos, shooters and grifters living out their nightmare (as the kids said in the story). Ppl wait for the sun to set like vampires. I suggest picking up a cheap AC unit to keep yourself on the sane side of crazy. It seems like some dipsh...

If you can learn Khmer, you'd probably go down well on the local TV comedy shows.

Re: Those beer can ring pulls.
What's the skinny on collecting ring pulls for Cambodia? I've never heard of anyone doing it in Cambodia, however there is a charity in Thailand that collects ring pulls to melt down and make prosthetic legs. Apparently when you melt a ring pull you can recover 99% of the metal, while cans end up w...

Re: My wife needs to learn better pronunciation...
WHY? The more she knows, the more she talks. The more she talks, the more you are expected to listen. Ignorance is bliss. I'm with you on this. I never correct the misses when she mispronounces stuff, for example she's been pronouncing "food" as "frood" for years, and uses "for" in the place of all...

Re: How difficult is it for young female teachers?
It's very difficult, you will get your handbag stolen all the time and never be able to go outside your compound in the evening. Then you'll get disillusioned and leave after 3 months because of the terrible hardships.

Re: Share my experience with OpenNet
In context "You sound Khmer" does seem like a dodgy racial slur. Otherwise, I'd agree that anything that sounds too good to be true usually isn't.
