Yes. The nominee for Greece is Kimberly Guilfoyle. Yes the former Fox News on air person who dated Jr and once was married to Gavin Newsom. Zero diplomatic experience. Her confirmation could be difficult.

I was in CNX when he was the Consul General. I would have thought the CNX Consul General Lisa Buenzas (who just completed her 3 year tour) would have been a strong candidate as well. Ms Buenzas is half Thai and is fluent.

Agree. I have done CNX-ICN-LAX numerous times with KAL. Initally I picked this route because the flight arrives at LAX early in the morniing. Use to fly Singapore Airlines (CNX-SIN-LAX) but did not like arriving late at night. LAX is not exactly in a great neighborhood.

Thai Airways International has no plans to resume direct flights to the United States, despite the US upgrading Thailand’s air safety rating this year to permit them, CEO Chai Eamsiri said on Wednesday I never thought it would actually happen. Not worth the cost of upgrading it's fleet. Also, way too much competion even from CNX (Korean, EVA, China and Starlux have US flights with one stop). Scoot, the Singoapor Airlines, budget carrier flies directly to SIN and then onto the US.

Some liberal minds might be offended but this was funny.

Do you get a 1099 from SSA? For the 401K can you get an annual stattement that summarizes the monthly deposits. For my past O/A Visa application i have been able to obtain a letter from the agency that issues the payments. This type of letter has been accepted by the LA Thai Consulate.

Only 432 Baht.

Just finished the Netflix limites series. It was very interesting:

it was serious questioin and I asked a Thai girl in her 30's in CNX and she said "it's weird" . This is just one opinion from a city girl.

This is an offensive weapon. Is this bound for the Cambodian border? Just wondering. Maybe the Ukranians would be interested and Thailand can start a defense industry?

What do rural Thai residents think when they see a 70+ year old foreigner with a bride in her 20's and a baby?

How about this: Rent out a hotel conference room and ask all SSA reciepients who are able to attend to answer "Are you alive" question in person? Of course this is the Federal Government and something that direct and possibly efficient would never happen. It looks like the appointments are in the morning so I do not see a lot of slots available.

Don't know how appointment slots they have but if one has a pressing SSA issue might be worth a trip to BKK: The Social Security Administration's Federal Benefits Unit (SSA/FBU) will provide services on Thursday July 24 at the American Citizen Services Section of the U.S. Embassy Bangkok.

My guess is the appointments will fill up. Maybe a flight to BKK is in the works for me: The Social Security Administration's Federal Benefits Unit (SSA/FBU) will provide services on Thursday July 24 at the American Citizen Services Section of the U.S. Embassy Bangkok.
