Hello!
My name is Narachon.
I am a veteran poster from That Other Place.
I've heard about this place for a while, but never got around to coming here to see what's going on.
I saw many members on that other forum mention this place, before that thread was closed by the mods there.
So here I am.
Please be gentle!

Hello Narachon. Welcome. I don't think they will be gentle here - be prepred - just don't let their bull shiit get to you. They even gave Lotus a red because they think she is my wife. Lotus is a very good friend of my wife. Most on here are too stupid to understand that if my wife wanted on teakdoor to read, post, or whatever, all she has to do is go to teakdoor. Ceburat signs in automtically. We have no secrets from each other.

I started using ketchup 50 some years ago on red beans in New Orleans. Raw onion on top too. If you want mai pet, simply cook the beans in water. With beans, chicken, carrots I would think celery and parsley would be good. This thread belongs to a friend of mine so I guess it is ok to post this here.

A National Geographic survey found amongst other things:-

• Thirty-four percent of the young Americans knew that the island used on last season's "Survivor" show was located in the South Pacific, but only 30 percent could locate the state of New Jersey on a map. The "Survivor" show's location was the Marquesas Islands in the eastern South Pacific.
• When asked to find 10 specific states on a map of the United States, only California and Texas could be located by a large majority of those surveyed. Both states were correctly located by 89 percent of the participants. Only 51 percent could find New York, the nation's third most populous state.
• On a world map, Americans could find on average only seven of 16 countries in the quiz. Only 89 percent of the Americans surveyed could find their own country on the map.

Just don't ask ME to find New York on a map.

What island was it?

**dano** · 29-08-2007, 09:11 PM

well those 34% were wrong too.....i think it was in the republic of belau(palau) which lies north of the equator in the western pacific

On a related note, concerning "hearing from Female Farangs", and the number of people with the inability to use maps here in America...

If you *still* haven't heard about Miss Teen South Carolina, Lauren Caitlin Upton's super funny blonde moment yet ( and I guess you guys haven't ) at the recent Miss USA pageant last Friday night...Here is the transcript of that memorable Bimbotic scene during her Q & A interview section after she made it to made it to the final five contestants, regarding what she thought and what could be done about recent stats that show 1/5th of American students can't point to the US on a world map...

The question to her by Actress Aimee Teagarden was:

" Recent polls have shown that a fifth of Americans can't locate the U.S. on a world map. Why do you think this is?"

Lauren Caitlin Upton replied:

"I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps, and, uh, I believe that our education like such as in South Africa and, uh, the Iraq everywhere like, such as and I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., er, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children".

I was totally unaware of the map shortage here in "U.S. America"! And I guess we also have to help South Africa, "The Iraq", and those "Asian Countries" find US on a map!

Incredible enough, she made third runner up!
Here is the to the funny Youtube video of her pageant interview question ( which is subtitled! ), if you've outside of Thailand and can see it...

Yes, I know, I'm well aware that it was a "Beauty" pageant, and not an IQ pageant, but still, as a proud "U.S. American" I have to say that....We've screwed!

( But I have to admit, I guess If I was a hot, beautiful young girl like her, I'd probably wouldn't bother having a subscription to National Geographic either! )

**Roc** · 30-08-2007, 09:07 PM

In the beginning I did not know who she was except that she is a friend of my wifes and used my computer. Many ladies, Thai and Filippino use my computer. Also my wifes brothers. I don't watch over them like a mother hen. They can do what they want with the computer. So Dirty Dog was correct on where the original post came from.

and, Yes, I now know who the lady is. I might add, all you bad boys that did not want to talk to her, Wow, you don't know what you passed up.

and, well I won't say what she said about the men on this forum, but, I think you guys can figure it out. Man, Hillbilly, you head the S..List. I didn't even get to read what you said, but, you did make the top of the list.

Don't worry Jet, she is a cool lady and educated.
