  1. I had this exact conversation with a friend a few months ago when Westworld first came on HBO. He had failed to understand after numerous conversations the attraction I found in going to Thailand.

     

    Since I knew he was watching WW, I asked him if he remembered when the new guy showed up and wore the white hat because he didn’t think he could be a bad guy? He did. I told him it was just like that and I was the man in the white hat.

     

    First visit I was too nice. I never got taken advantage of, but I paid too much and bought too many drinks for girls I had no interest in ever taking out of the club or gogo.

     

    Each subsequent visit I was less and less interested in being compliant to the requests of the girls. I lost my newbie eyes and now I was looking for ways to change the game into my own new reality.

     

    One of my challenges is to always remember that these girls are real people. Even if they have been programmed to respond and act a certain way due to their previous experience and exposure to the realities of the environment within which they exist.

     

    Now I challenge myself to look for the weak spots in their armor. Access that spot and attempt to find the girl still inside the working girl.

     

    In one episode of WW one of the characters says something along the lines of this.

     

    If the robots don’t know they are robots and they have a fear of death, and they feel pain internally, as we all do, what makes them different than those of us that live and breathe?

     

    Great topic and a great show if you get a chance to watch it.

  2. So my normal wingman has had to cancel due to some business issues.

     

    I'll be in country the 4th and will depart the 14th. All my days are currently set for BKK but I can adjust.

     

    I'm dong half my time at the Westin and the other half at the Conrad.

     

    I'm a low profile punter. Don't drink, don't smoke, just like to enjoy the ladies.

     

    If anyone else needs a wingman while I'm around, hit me up and we can set something up.

  3. It works just fine. Takes a minute or two to register once you land in LOS but after that you are good to go.

    Data is listed to be 256kbs but I regularly found it to be above that speed. Faster than Edge and normally 3G or faster.

    I got better speeds on my Android devices than I did on the IOS phones. That could be due to the prevalent bands used in the LOS radios.

     

    Enjoy.

  4. I was there two nights ago. If you are over 30, you stand out like crazy. Almost all local TGs. Many very beatiful but alas, not much interest in farang.

     

    It was a waste of 320 baht entry fee for me. Even my European friend that is 30 but looks younger had zero luck. He can normally pull from anywhere with his blonde hair and blue eyes. No dice at Route 66 though.

     

    Now, Route 66 in the US, been laid on that road many times. But that's a story for another board.
