The Star of David (Magen David) became associated with Judaism at a much later date than the Temple Menorah. Its use dates from the late Middle Ages (around 1350 CE) and ironically, may have originally been an Islamic symbol. While the Star of David is now widely accepted and recognized as a symbol of Judaism, it hasn't always been a happy association. Jews line up for selection at the Auschwitz extermination camp. Despite however much Hamas and its supporters may want it, Jews will never again line up for extermination. The Star of David has become a proud symbol of strength and defiance, and the survival of the Jewish people not victimhood. The seven-branch Temple Menorah is reserved for synagogues, but the nine-branch Hannukah menorah is used at home during Hannukah. Candle-lighting is also an important part of observing Shabbat (the Sabbath). It's complicated and you can read about it here: https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/323422/jewish/Shabbat-Candles.htm The first Temple Menorah designed by God as revealed to Moses was made of pure gold, but others were made of whatever the local congregation could afford, ranging from wood on upward.

If you cannot afford to be in Thailand then stay home. Som nam naaaaa

I guess in all its righteousness ( if that is the correct word) It all depends on what area of South East Asia you live , and I just say this forum is NOT only a "Thailand" only forum but for everyone in South East Asia , Having said that it depends on where you live and what hobbies, obviously if your hobby is Muay Thai it would be a bit difficult to do that in say Duamagette, Phillipines if your retired there Oh stop complaining please !!! If your hobby is not available in Da Nang Vietnam where your retired then move !!! But I must say a very interesting topic

I remember this hobby was very popular in the 1970's & 1980's but now with advanced technology eg WhatsApp & zoom I guess it's not popular May I ask if I'm correct and please don't hesitate to correct my verbal corrections but Ham Radio is talking to people around the world Thankyou for your service

Ill give you one big guess where im from.

Talking of chess ,where are the chess clubs in say Pattaya? I do recall and please Gentlemen or should I perhaps use pronouns ...but I do recall a large Chess set on Pattaya beach once or am I mistaken?

More importantly....no squirters ?

But it's worthless because he doesn't mean it though it does remind me of something that happened in Afganistan. The yanks had put a sign above their tent that read "Second to None" so the Brits decided to put one up as well it simply said "None" (I won't say which units were involved)

He's the leading contender for the Pinocchio Award.

I may have to move this to the Pub forum. The Pattaya forum is for serious & intelligent replies.

Who is holding the cash?

I live in East Pattaya, and on several roads leading into Sukhumvit lately, they have done the same. They first laid the complete asphalt all over the draining system. After a few days, they start cutting and laying down new draincovers, and they do it with precision. So when you drive on it afterwards, you can almost not feel any bump there at all. They're doing a great job. However, when you look at the sides of the road, the road has been raised some centimetres, and that might be a concern to the shops next to it, if the draining system can't take away heavy rain.

Exactly, never had a problem myself in Bangkok. Pattaya and Phuket is expensive. The Japanese man didn’t mention where and when he went. I’ve paid 1000 baht and find that very cheap. Maybe he took the limousine company inside, that’s 2000Baht.

What do you expect from someone who bears low-class tattoos?

What is your sample size?

How can someone determine if they have won the day?

I would argue that your perspectives reflect an uncritical adherence to leftist ideals.

Both Biden and Clinton evaded the draft. Did you ever consider holding this against them?

In his case it is more like obsession, addiction, compulsion, and dependency. It's really his whole life. Not a hobby.

I used to own a long wool coat like that. It was surplus Swiss military. Guess the Swiss, and the Swedes, and the Finns and the Brits and The US army all wore National Socialist great coats. Google wool greatcoat and check out the babes wearing them.

Great way to trash his legacy. Cameron is a fascist. And he's proud of it. Canada is closer to home anyway, same scenery same misguided vax fascism.

That’s the best advice I’ve heard in years. Very funny.

Fingers crossed and a quick move to Alberta for me.......if the time comes.
