thank god davesafe clarified that he drives around bkk high with an ipod on, for everyone who might have otherwise taken his advice about driving motorbikes seriously.

he sounds really cool tho

haha this is priceless!

I LOL'd.

yes

just dropping in my 2 cents. not gonna go into detail how much more fun it is to drive high w/ipod.

fwiw i think motorbiking in phuket is much more dangerous.

well that, or ending up like rutang:

Ever try motorbiking...on weed?

LOL I use to be an amazing downhill mountain biker. Before each event or a run I would blaze a big blunt and just shoot down that hill like a tornado weed makes me more aware of my surroundings and it makes me more careful I am actually a safer person while on weed rather then sober.

So when you did downhill runs sober were you ****ty/average and then become amazing when u did it high?

sort of like a stoned version of Popeye

well when i was sober I was less aware and I was rushing but not an adreniline rush just like a panic rush.. when i was high I was alert because i didn't want to F up n get hurt while I am high so i am far more cautious.

But the down side of smoking the biking was that i would get major pasties and I would need to drink lots of water which in turn gave me cramps.

I would always snowboard way faster/better when high.

I am considering coming out for a 3 month vacation. If i did i would get my wisdom teeth out while I am there. Any advice or recommendations from anyone who has had dental work out there? I think I will be splitting my time up by living in bangkok and phuket on month to month leases in furnished studio's. What I am interested in is figuring out exactly how much I am going to need for everything. If some of you vets can give me your advice I would appreciate it. rutang? Lessu? pokerspiv? shipitfma?

Here is my list of what I think I need let me know if my numbers are off, what i am missing, and what I left blank.

Totals For 3 months:
$ 740 roundtrip airfair
$ 1800 rent
$ 400 transportation
$ 1800 food
$ health insurance
$ 500 hotel until I find a place
$ 3000 alcohol partying ect
$ 800 wisdom teeth out

What am I missing ? Are my #'s realistic? Is 9K reasonable?
~Thanks for your time guys~

you can live/eat/party very comfortably on $9k for 3 months.

There is your dentist. I've had them do fillings for me, cleanings and surgery once. Very clean and professional, speak great English and obv very cheap.

sad day when someone thinks of Pokerspiv to ask advice of before most other regs, but too funny that shipitfma is listed AFTER him.

thanks bro me

Yep, those hefty 0.1% charges add up fast

Any tips on upgrading my PC from 1 to 3/4 gbs in BKK? Pantip Plaza i'm thinking but any specific guy/shop anyone knows? Would be really grateful because I cant do it myself but need it done soon, thanks.

Yes Pantip. Just go up to the 3/4/5 floor and ask around. Tons of guys who can do that for you.

i'm not sure what you have in mind when you say "furnished studios" but $600/mo may or may not be enough depending on what you're looking for.

A friend of mine is coming to phuket on a honeymoon. Any hotel recs somewhere semi near where i stay (rawai, kata, karon) ?

Morten stayed at the yahcht whatever resort by the end of Nai Harn beach. It was pretty epic and not too expensive if booked through agoda or whatever

I know there are a lot of poker houses in Thailand, how did they come about is what i'm wondering?

Do most people prepare to get a place online so its there when they arrive, or is it generally
1. arrive
2. khao san road
3. poker

anyone whos done this or knows people that have please let me know
