The 90 day report at Jomtien is very quick at Jomtien these days. They also built a nice new building which is where you get a queue number although you can also get it inside the main building but I suspect that in a couple of months you won't get the initial screening in the old building. The new building has great AC and a pleasant place to wait to get your passport back if doing a 90 day report. It's also where you collect your certificate of residency although you apply for the residency certificate at Window 9 of the old building. You need the residency certificate if applying for or renewing a Thai Driver's license. You might also need it if opening a Thai bank account. This residency certificate is not the TM 30.

Looks like they are building a brand new set of beer bars at the old MIT beer bar complex. My guess is that originally it was going to be redeveloped as condos but the market is too soft for condos.

A serial transgender person was arrested by police once again for snatching gold necklaces from foreign tourists near Pattaya Beach. Pattaya Police nabbed a transgender gold snatcher named Boonyawin or “Frame”, under an arrest warrant issued by the Pattaya Provincial Court early this morning, June 1st. Boonyawin was brought into custody for allegedly snatching gold necklaces from Indian tourists on May 13th near Pattaya Beach. According to Pattaya Police, Boonyawin was a transgender person who had previously been prosecuted for pickpocketing foreign tourists on Pattaya Beach. After being released, she returned to commit the same crime, leading the court to issue a warrant for her second arrest. Boonyawin remained in police custody as of press time. https://thepattayanews.com/2023/06/01/serial-transgender-thief-arrested-again-by-pattaya-police-after-snatching-tourists-jewelry/

George Maharis, the ruggedly handsome New York-born stage actor who went on to become a 1960s television heartthrob as a star of the series “Route 66,” died on Wednesday at his home in Beverly Hills, Calif. He was 94. His longtime friend and caretaker, Marc Bahan, confirmed his death. Mr. Maharis’s greatest fame arose from the role of Buz Murdock, one of two young men who traveled the country in a Corvette convertible, finding a new adventure and drama (and usually a new young woman) each week on CBS’s “Route 66.” In a 2012 reappraisal of the show, the New York Times critic and reporter Neil Genzlinger praised the literary quality of the scripts and commented, “This half-century-old black-and-white television series tackled issues that seem very 21st century.” Several actors who went on to greater renown appeared on the show, including Martin Sheen, Robert Redford, Robert Duvall and Barbara Eden. “Route 66” began in 1960, and Mr. Maharis left the show in 1963. His co-star, Martin Milner, got a new partner, played by Glenn Corbett, and the series continued for one more season. Mr. Maharis attributed his departure to health reasons (he was suffering from hepatitis), but Karen Blocher, an author and blogger who interviewed Mr. Maharis and other principal figures on the show, wrote in 2006 that the story was more complex. Herbert B. Leonard, the show’s executive producer, “thought he’d hired a young hunk for the show, a hip, sexy man and good actor that all the girls would go for,” Ms. Blocher wrote. “This was all true of Maharis, but not the whole story, as Leonard discovered to his anger and dismay. George was gay, it turned out.” Ms. Blocher attributed Mr. Maharis’s departure to a number of factors. “The producers felt betrayed and duped when they learned of Maharis’s sexual orientation, and never trusted him again,” she wrote, adding, “Maharis, for his part, started to feel that he was carrying the show and going unappreciated.” Mr. Maharis was arrested in 1967 on charges of “lewd conduct” and in 1974 on charges of “sex perversion” for cruising in men’s bathrooms. He did not discuss his sexuality in interviews, but he proudly described being the July 1973 nude centerfold in Playgirl magazine to Esquire in 2017. “A lot of guys came up to me,” he said, “and asked me to sign it for their ‘wives.’”

Foggy passed away this year. Did catch up with him right before Christmas though. He was still driving his yellow jeep which was indeed a babemagent jeep.

I'm sure you'll have a blast Dan!

Don't know recent prices but suspect the ladyboys might be less expensive that the GGs at Nightwish Group Bars. Soi 6 post-Covid Blockparty returns.

A pet peeve of mine is over-airconditioned planes, busses, and movie theatres. Stumbled across this nugget today:
