That's an interesting approach! But you didn't stress (this information is hiddenin "national") that it's local to local. But I come as a tourist, so when I pay 1000 Baht for short time that's around 0.25 of my daily gdg (back in Europe).

Thomas, Johnson, Ho, 30-06? It would be nice if those who use regional slang terms could tell us others what they mean. Otherwise I constantly have to skip those terms or check everything in urbandictionary or elsewhere online.

The generic terms sometimes used in the USA are John Thomas and Woody Johnson for the male member. Perhaps not common but well known to me.
However the post by Corner Bar was referring to "Thomas" the ward of the owner, Mr. Michael, and not the male member, or at least not that male member. The 30-06 is the caliber of a rifle that all Texans take to bed with them every night.

Oh, and for those who are not Americans, a "Woody" means an erect penis; a hard on; an erection.
Would love to know equivalent expressions in other languages.

In German, we say "Latte" ("Morgenlatte" is the erection in the morning you wake up) or "Ständer".

Do other foreign languages speakers like Australians, Canadians, Brits and Kiwis have other names? 5555

Yes, my Thomas, is my ward of 17 years, and yes when I brought a crack {cocaine} crazed young man home, Thomas would remove one of the many high powered weapons from the gun safe and tell the young man that he would be outside the door if anything went wrong with me. We were not as well armed as many other Texans. We only had 50 guns and maintained 10000 rounds of ammunition. We lived in a very rough part of Houston and never had any problems. We were known as "the crazy white boys with guns". Now in Thailand we only have mace, stun guns, and swords. You can get in trouble for having guns here.

By any chance, did you drive a pickup truck with rebel plates and a shotgun rack in the back . . . ?

I had a Dodge Ram 3500 super duty deisel duly. Had a ladder on each side to climb into the truck. No gun rack. They made those illegal because the guns and rack become projectiles in a wreck. No rebel plates, thats Alabama. Did have four shotguns, always loaded with double 0 buck shot or rifled slugs. One was sawed off with pistol grips for killing large groups with one shot.
