Re: What's the hottest (chilli) food you've ever eaten?
At "House of Blues" in New Orleans about 15 years ago, the waitress warned me not to sample the pepper atop my jambalaya. Of course, I took it as a dare. The f*&king thing was like battery acid on my tongue, and even though I didn't swallow, it still cauterized my digestive tract. That...

That illustrates why camels are known as 'ships of the desert'... they transport people, and are full of 'seamen'

Re: Thai Boxing stadium in Hua Hin
They have matches every Wednesday and Friday. We attended one of last week's (Wednesday's) matches, and they were passing out fliers for the Friday matches. Start times are advertised as 9:00PM but Wednesday, they didn't start until about 9:40. I think we paid about 1,200 baht for 2 of us, but there...

Re: Hua Hin legal firm to help with retirement visa process?
I used Siam Legal, while I was still in working in Afghanistan. Upon my arrival in Hua Hin, they actually sent someone down here with the paperwork, to walk me through the process at immigration. I thought the whole thing went fairly smooth.

Re: The Car Challenge
Challenge #1 - I'm sure it's cheating that I found it on the internet, so I won't spoil it other than to say it's a 1951 model

Re: Super Bowl, Monday morning February 3rd
If you just want to see the game and not necessarily do it at a bar or restaurant, "ThaiExpatTV" has the game scheduled to show live (actually a 5-minute delay) on Channel 4 @ 10:30PM GMT (kickoff 11:25 GMT). If you don't have "ThaiExpatTV", I think it still has a 7-day free tria...

TRICARE acceptance at Bangkok Hospital HH?
Bangkok Hospital in Bangkok accepts my TRICARE medical insurance (as per the TRICARE provider website). Bangkok Hospital in Hua Hin is a branch of the same hospital. Can anyone confirm for me if the Hua Hin branch accepts TRICARE, or, is it only the Bangkok branch that will accept my TRICARE insuran...

Kaeng Krachen dam and reservoir / 22 Nov 2013
The dam and reservoir are about a 90-minute drive north-west of Cha-Am. Near the dam is a nice little visitor's center with very nice picnic areas, really scenic. We plugged the coordinates into the GPS and followed a zig-zag course up, through pineapple and sugarcanefields on tiny little backroads....

Recommended medicines to carry while traveling in/around
Last February while visiting in Isaan, I got sick (diarrhea confined me to my hotel room) after eating food with my wife's family. At the end of the first day of sitting on the toilet, my wife went to a pharmacy and came back with charcoal tablets & something else. I swear, within 30 minutes I w...
