So if the parade was in fact a sex workers parade, would guys here flock to see it?

Not attracted to Thais? Not one of the 70 million people? Amazing!

The offered trip was very reasonably priced with a combo of miles and money. But, it was R/T to GRU. There was no option to return from GIG. There was a stop in BOG, but short, maybe too short. Someone at FlyerTalk posted a pic of a Business Class that was dark and narrow- not appealing at all. The comments I have received there are quite discouraging, not only for Avianca, but for the Lifemiles program.

How rude of you.

I can get tix r/t to GRU but not sure I want to fly Avianca. Seems like it can be subpar. Any experience here?

I think it was a set up to get publicity for both. Would anyone outside of the far-right have paid attention otherwise?

The site says that "It looks like you are in the UK." Huh? My VPN is in the United States and so am I. Anyone recommend this subscription?

Your hotel room would be one place...

Hell, I'd be excited to see @numazu!!!

It's a good idea!

It's a good idea!

Is this rule no longer in effect?

Dollar is down 17.5% against the real. So, if it does return to about 3.3 to 1, the inflation in Brazil will make it even worse. So let's keep that dollar up a little!

There's nothing new about non-escorts being offended at a money offer. My first experience with it was in Acapulco where the guy wouldn't even take taxi money. That was decades ago! (Acapulco is not safe these days!)

These days the prospect of a high end hotel and a wonderful buffet appeal to me more than a go-go bar. Sad, huh? I always liked the buffet breakfast at Le Meridien and the W. Who's better?

It's dismaying to hear that drugs are so popular in Bangkok.

UPDATE: Today Thailand reports an increase in new COVID cases to 22,073. https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2276299/22-073-new-covid-cases-69-more-deaths

Due to a rise in COVID cases, the Center for Disease Control is advising Americans to avoid travel to Thailand, New Zealand, and Hong Kong. On Tuesday, New Zealand reported nearly 24,000 new cases, while Thailand reported nearly 19,000, according to the Bangkok Post. Under a new self-reporting system, Hong Kong had 43,000 new cases Tuesday, Reuters said. https://www.washingtonpost.com/travel/2022/03/08/cdc-travel-warning-new-zealand-thailand-hong-kong/ https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2275643/18-943-new-covid-cases-69-more-deaths

Oz, I did that and signed in okay. But the problem does not come up each time I sign in so it may change.

This still happens. I now see an error code: 2S119/1 if that helps.

I support @JKaneon this. He posts some great stuff on politics.

The novel I just read includes scenes from the Windmill Theater.

I couldn't imagine retiring to Pattaya. I can barely tolerate a weekend there. (pre-Covid of course)

Good for you on the new partner!
