  1. It looks like someone dropped a deuce. Or maybe it's just a Baby Ruth bar.
  2. Fill your boots. I'm sure we will all be anxious to hear your experience in declaring an emergency for whatever reason and after receiving full treatment how your claim turned out under your Medicare advantage plan. Truely, I hope it works out for you.
  3. Of those Medicare advantage plans I have looked at any benefit for overseas use is very limited if allowed at all. TBS I have not looked at all of them but please remember that those that are available are specific to the address in the county of the state that you would be using in the US.
  4. Negotiate a good price for another truck and take their offer to buy the first one back. Sorted!
  5. I once had a COW go running past me. I was doing about 20KPH. He was doing at least 30. One of those skinny India Braham type. He was not full grown. Probably a yearling or less and he was trailing a 40 foot rope off a halter. He acted like he knew where he was going. He passed me, took the bend of the road and I never saw him again.
  6. The Alabama Black Snake . . . never sleeps
  7. Tell them "No thank you" and wave them away. They will catch on. It's not so hard really . . .
  8. I used to see the men do this but I've not seen anyone like that in quite a while.
  9. From time to time when one of my limey friends was rattling on I would ask them "How many major newspapers this very day in England have an article about the United States above the fold"? The answer is damn near every one. How many newspapers in the US have an article about England anywhere on the front page? Nary a one.
  10. I'm not a gynecologist, but I'll take a look . . . . .
  11. Who would want to cook in a barrel with peeling paint on the inside? Keep your chickens mate. Not for me.
  12. I love his stuff and have for a very long time.
  13. This must be a new thing as I lived for 15 years in Thailand and withdrew money through an ATM in Thailand twice a month with my Schwab debt card and nary a word was ever said. I used a PO Box as my mailing address the entire time. I had both a brokerage account and a checking account and it was not an international account.
  14. Does she cut up your meat for you as well . . . ?
  15. Name that tune: I like a good beer buzz early in the morning
  16. I expect I have used every bank in Thailand at one time or another. No real preference or majority of use among any of them.
  17. I use my Schwab card in Thailand twice a month and ALL fees are reimbursed. There has never been a time when they were not credited back. Indeed, that has been the case wherever else in the world that I have traveled and used my Schwab card. I don't leave home without it!
  18. The caddies that work the golf course certainly are not shy and, indeed, very willing!
  19. Yeah sure. Anyone think they have the IT people who can put this together anytime soon? The 90 day report took years and I'm not sure it is working on a regular basis even now.
  20. All of you ATM fees are refunded so no worries there . . . I withdraw from a Thai ATM machine 20,000Bt every two weeks (even when the US$ exchange rate was much lower than it is now) and it was a smooth transaction every time. I never had the need to try to pull more than that so I couldn't tell you about $1,000 USD or more.
  21. It always tickles me (and warms my heart) when people go OFF when the word "soccer" is used. Usually it is the limey crew who get a stick up their rectum even though the word originated in England! It is just a name. Their car has a wind screen and a boot. My car has a wind shield and a trunk. They go on holiday. I go on vacation. We are still talking about the same thing but somehow they must prefer that stick.
  22. I am not a big fan of air con and thus I would not be without a floor fan or maybe two . . .
  23. I am not buying anything right now and have no intention to do so in a falling market. This is no time to fight the tape. WHEN that time does come I'll be looking at the regional banks (USA) whose share price has fallen and offer some really good dividends. At my age that is much the best as far as I am concerned. I'll have those divvy's reinvested and not do a lot of thinking along the way. Once again, at my age that is ALSO much the best!
