  1. Like Obama did? Or Biden, or Clinton, or... or... Millions died every year on their watch, too.
  2. Conceptually, I like them. But I think the devil will be in the details, especially if a bunch of them blow off the roofs and balconies because of the DIY nature and being sold to Rubes who don't know which is the business end of a screwdriver. Or if they start bursting into flames for similar reasons, with the DIY's being unfamiliar with E=IR. Not to mention vendors taking cost out of the product until they barely pass muster, heating up to the max.
  3. They need to install a mile long zipline from the top floors of that ugly carcass of a building to a boat securely anchored out in the middle of the bay. I may visit just to try that one out.
  4. If they don't know whether there were drugs in his system, they're just guessing at the circumstances of his death. Of course, if you're the cops on an island that depends on tourists drinking out of buckets, that may be the way you want it. If he was my family, I'd want to know if there was a crime committed.
  5. It'll be interesting to see what happens when the US trade agreement is completed.
  6. Bad news. There are studies out already showing that millions starve every year because the collective West can't afford to prop up the entire 3rd world. That's the way the world is, and the way it will always be. Long before the Bad Orange Man. And it'll be that way long after they plant daisies over him. In the meantime, look beyond CNN and MSDNC to see the lunacy that USAID has been funding around the world. It needs to be reformed. Bigly.
  7. Don't sugar coat it... How was it really? Edit: To the OP, I'd suggest spending some time in Thailand, find some businesses that interest you and talk to the foreign owners to see how they did it, what challenges they face, etc. Then ask yourself if you have the skills and the grit and determination they do. I've got my eye out for a future retirement situation, not so much to make money, but to give me something to do that won't drain me.
  8. In fairness, getting lynched by an angry crowd before (or even after) the cops show up isn't a thing in Germany like it is in Thailand. Which, agree or not, is the rationale behind allowing drivers to turn themselves in later.
  9. Just out of curiosity, what's the fare BKK to Perth? In case I get a wild hair one day...
  10. Feels like I just woke up and I'm in the 4th grade again. At least I didn't forget my pants, like in my nightmares.
  11. Your best bet is to call their help line by phone during office hours.
  12. He seems to have missed last week's Supreme Court decision that ruled that it was the activist judges and their universal injunctions that were violating the constitution, not Trump.
  13. When did trolling lefties become unconstitutional? I must have missed that ruling.
  14. Maybe it smells like wads of $100 bills.
  15. I generally like Canucks, and hope he wasn't stupid enough to think he could smuggle heroin from on Asian country to another. I'm open to the possibility that the guy is an idiot who carried some "gift handbags" for a real hot chick who has a friend in Taiwan. Hot chicks can get most guys to do real stupid stuff if they smile and suggest there may be some hot monkey love on the other end.
