The couple of places that I stay are decent, last trip I get 6 mbps from ICE INN. But if the quality of your hotel is Page 10, then you will not be considering Ice Inn.Staying at Ice Inn gives me the bonus of justifying how much I pay. A poor Canadian like me can't even afford a really nice hotel. My experience is that the quality of hotel has nothing to do with the quality of Internet connection. In the higher priced categories of hotel that you demand, the boutique hotel "247 Boutique" on Soi Honey has great wifi and a great rooftop pool. I swim there all the time, they think I stay there. Last time I stayed at Baywalk Residence, the wifi was awesome. It's a great hotel with a great location (but no pool). But that's when it was new, so surely the Thais have fucked it up by now. The Whitehouse on Soi 13 has a lovely rooftop pool and the Internet was really good when my friend stayed there last year. But the Whitehouse does not allow two guests without a joiner fee (one is no charge). If you can deal with slightly slower speeds, but really reliable service, get a 3G package for your simcard and use tethering on your smartphone so your other devices can connect. Then you don't have to care about hotel wifi, and no one will hack your traffic. http://thaiprepaidcard.com/3g-data-plans-for-12call-dtac-and-true/ Not to derail the thread but ..... regardless of anything, I never go anywhere without the $28 Edimax BR-6258n portable router. It is the size of a pack of condoms! and it allows you to create your own WiFi hotspot from a wired connection, or from another WiFi connection. It works on 90% of the networks I encounter, and makes me feel better that I am adding more security to my traffic. It's really not more work than connecting tablets and smartphones to the hotel wifi. You just power on the router and wirelessly connect one of your devices to it, then use the easy firmware to tell the router what the connection type, network and password are. Then the router uses that connection, and your devices connect to the router. The Asus WL-330NUL is similar and newer, and a friend said slightly easier to configure. They are described at the bottom of this link: http://lifehacker.com/five-best-travel-routers-1452441479 .. And if you'll never use the wired connection, and know nothing about networks, this one is the best: Edimax N150 - http://www.amazon.com/Edimax-Wireless-Personal-Hotspot-BR-6258nL/dp/B00ADHPP6Y

Midnight Closures Ordered For Nana Area Bars http://www.stickboybangkok.com/news/midnight-closures-ordered-nana-area-bars/ Bangkok nightlife said to be on midnight curfew until further notice http://bangkok.coconuts.co/2015/03/04/bangkok-nightlife-said-be-midnight-curfew-until-further-notice

For many travelers today, a good (free) in-room wi-fi connection is considered a basic requirement. Which hotels have good fast reliable wi-if, and which fall short? Sadly, my first entry in the category of "THIS WIFI SUCKS" is my current residence and long-time favorite: PAGE 10 HOTEL - sucks. Last year it was in decline, and I had to sit in the lobby to find a decent signal and get any work done. This year it's even worse. Virtually unusable in the room it's so slow and unreliable. Lobby is still marginally better, but I shan't be staying here again. Hopefully someone nominates some hotels in the "THIS WIFI GREAT" category for me to choose from next time.

Regarding Bibi Netanyahu's speech at the US congress yesterday, Jon Stewart had THIS to say; “whether or not Netanyahu achieved his goals of sabotaging a deal with Iran or mistakenly opened up a rift in U.S.-Israeli relations, one thing is certain -- the in-chamber response to this speech is by far the longest blowjob a Jewish man has ever received."

No beer tonight. I'm over budget for the week. I figured it must be torino but figured it was spelled Turino since in Engish Turin. Thought car was machina; maybe it is And factoria sure sounds right; maybe it's espanol/

Welcome to Sexy Rhexie, a versatile ladyboy from Manila http://www.ladyboyreview.com/ladyboyreview-profile/SexyRhexie23/ http://www.ladyboyreview.com/ladyboyreview-profile/SexyRhexie23/

not sure if I should be the one to mention it but anyways she told me last night that there will be a party at BB for her birthday on March 28th

There is a girl that worked at Obsession in Pattaya and now has been working at Cascade for 2 or 3 years. I thin Ann is her name. She has long blonde locks. And a big nose. She can squirt alot and many times in one session. Wish I could be more help...

I'm seated down for dinner right now in a tiny hole in wall place on Bukhao and no-one is even trying to hide their beers, go figure

Darkside bar

Here is Volterra: https://www.google.com/maps/@12.923002,100.876388,3a,75y,182.98h,86.84t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1scBnOUDMhpRHQA5rtT3_vRQ!2e0 Funny how tastes vary and perhaps places change over time. Many of us think La Taverna del Passatore has great food. I have the penne bolognese every time I go and it's as good as any I've found in town IMO. It appears the friendly mother? of the not so friendly owner does all the cooking. I went to Volterra once many years ago and thought the pizza sucked. But what style of pizza one likes can be very subjective. So since I eat Italian almost every night I'll head back to Volterra for some pasta. But I seldom get over that way anymore since Famous Bar and the Corner Bar closed. So might be lucky to get over that way with the less than one week I have left on this trip.

After hours brawl at Soi LK Metro GoGo on Buddha Day http://www.bangkokpost.com/news/crime/488716/3-foreigners-beaten-by-pattaya-bar-bouncers Three drunk foreign men were assaulted by bouncers at a Pattaya nightclub after arguing with guests and allegedly attacking the Austrian owner early today.

A comparison of a Beyonce song and Beck song.

I'll also mention again that a great strategy for US citizens before a trip is get your doctor to write a 30 day prescription for Daily Use Cialis. Then go to the Cialis website and download the coupon for a 30 day free trial. Take the 2 to a pharmacy, bada-bing bada-boom, you've got 30 tablets for free. You can get a coupon once per year. 30 tablets actually lasts me the entire year. I like the Daily Use better as fewer side effects; only lasts 36-48 hours but great value.

A few years ago a ladyboy who shall remain nameless and I were getting ready to to out for the evening to Walking Street . She came out of the bathroom with just a skimpy top and underwear and high heels and slung her handbag over shoulder and that was her ready ...I had to do a double take . I asked her did she not want to wear a dress or skirt and she said no she wanted to look sexy . Later that night I was carrying her piggyback down Walking Street as she was mau mak mak a couple of young buckaroo's thought it would be smart to remind me that it might not be a bona fide lady hanging on to my neck . One of them shouted "Oi mate I don't like the look of the one you're fucking " To which I retorted "Well she's better looking than the one you're fucking " They both stopped and looked at each other quite bemused ...... and then the penny finally dropped ........

I guess being handcuffed to an almost topless Sindy from La Bamba and marched up Soi 13/1 counts also.
