what is your problem with Jimmy James
you are not getting free refills for you tea bag like before with the old owners from Memmory
what about the french owned pedo gogo bars Keos are the boys all over 18 or are you getting free stuff from them so no bad words about it you should change your name from travellerjim to dramaqueenjim or better assh...jim
Another post by a new member and most likely the only post you will see from this member. These posts are only done to degrade someone or cause some problem somewhere. Since I cannot be there I am most thankfull for any info and JJJ is one of my favorite bars. The owner does a fine job with the guys working there and they all seem to like him. It is a well run bar and a happy bar as far as the staff goes. Thanks for the info and some pics would be appreciated.
Good Grief Mike...Quote:

I guess I should feel grateful for being the chosen one of your (attack) comments...
as evidenced by your "eloquence and gracious words" ...
However, Mike...
I have no problem with JJJ ...I do wish them well!
Quite frankly, and to the point...however....
I do not believe an owner of ANY club ... I say again...ANY CLUB
is doing their job when they allow the hiring of underage boys !
This has nothing to do with freebies...
it does concern the rights of the gay community customers...
and the boys themselves...
as I am one customer who does like to visit the clubs on occasion...
I would like to have some "peace of mind" that the owners and Mamasans have done their job
by making sure that all boys at their clubs are 18 years of age and over.
Sadly, however, it is a "buyer beware" ..."caution - underage boys within"
mentality one must recognize and have when visiting some clubs.
Always, I do my due diligence in asking for the boys Thai ID card...
reading it, checking for photo likeness and date of birth.
If the boy says the Thai ID card "is in my room" ...conversation over!
Mike....If the shoe fits...and underage boys are being hired at a club...then, in my opinion,
the club owners licenses should go the same way of the old Amigo Club Bar and K-Boys...and others...
be canceled, be closed and out of business!
Obviously, I have touched a sensitive nerve of yours ...and possibly others who like to
frequent clubs which feature many underage boys...
by cautioning fellow readers to be sure and check the boys ID cards.
and - for the record - checking for a valid Thai ID card that is a good practice regardless of age...
I do wish JJJ a successful reopening...
and I respectfully ask that they and others ...IF THE SHOE FITS...
to carefully consider the issues both you ....and I have raised.

travelerjim read your message -- youth 'scramble" in Sunnee 11.00 pm Monday night
boys were running out from Sundance and Keos afther the rumour about police comming
but you are only talking about boys from a bar to be reopen soon ... one thing we do agry all those bars with under aged boys should be closed
so mayby next time do not talk just about one bar but but tell the whole story
Again, anyone here for longer than a day knows all this, and that's assuming he's a slow learner too.
I don't doubt the good intentions of the posters who try to warn tourists of the dangers here, but this is becoming a Greek Chorus. I, for one, am sick and tired about hearing about the "underage" monster.
Anyone stupid enough not to check ID must have trouble walking across the street as well, and that can be a pretty dangerous thing as well, but we don't harp on it day in and day out.
Maybe I'm getting into the swing of things here now. I just saw that Krazy Dragon is having a "Butt of the Year" contest coming up in September. Maybe we should be falling all over ourselves checking IDs here as well, writing endless warnings for people who are too stupid to cross the street alone, since there was a big media splash over the owner of this bar just a few months ago having to do with, yes... "THE UNDERAGE MONSTER"!
Oh no! Is there anyplace we are safe? Iran maybe? The Vatican? Is it really hopeless?
I whole heartedly agree with you mike100, lets tell the whole story. Maybe you would like to start by telling everyone that all forms of prostitution are illegal in Thailand, and therefore all gogo bars are breaking the law. Would you like to endorse that?Quote:

gwm4asian, please don't go telling the whole story because if you do we will all go to prison!
Thank you very much for making my life totally miserable now that you have raised all these prickly facts!
What? We are all criminals? What shall I do?
I must throw myself off the rooftop of the highest building in Sunee in order to save humanity. First thing in the morning, I must. Mea culpa! Mea culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa!

With inforcing the Entertainment Places Act of 1966 which is still in effect today, makes it possible to render "special services" like massage, etc.
Off fee is charged for "buying time", not for sex. What you are doing with the offed boy or girl is "up to the offed person". This is clearly stiched at the edge, but this is Thai logic.
In 2003 the Thai government was concidering to legalise prostitution but failed.
