My maths was about the same only I used 2X52 instead of 365.

I'm checking mine everyday this next week; a lot of 'maintenance" being performed over this weekend where I bank.

The entire banking system is becoming suspect, I'm afraid. Why would every bank agree to being a suspect? If the bank is unknown (unpublished) then any one of them is a possibility of where the culprit worked. Of course it could be that all of them are off the hook because the one is unknown.

Looks to m e Karma is his Bitch, at least so far. Not gonna do any jail sentence; too rich.

Didn't get much publicity that he was anything other than an American. Thanks for the info.

Is the Thai license enough for the rental car companies. I'd guess yes?

If it isn't REAL broke don't fix it.

Probably be using the next letter in the Greek Alphabet before much longer, likely before I get my booster in 3 months. Going to be a lot of varients before this is over, if ever it is.

I've been reading where a 'booster' is only half a 'regular' shot. So will Thai medical personel be able to give people half a shot ? I had two regular shots of Moderna; I want Phizer for my booster and wonder if it really matters; 'regular' shot or 'booster' version.

I'd guess the one ridinig pillion didn't have his helmet strapped on from the way it just popped off.

I thought this was any test, a 15 dollar 15 minutes test from the local cliniic is good enough. So far this topic fis making folks believe a full blown on RT-PCR test is needed. Hope I'm correct, one of those ATK test is enough for this mandate. This morning I saw a sign at the local pharmacy advertising they'll do that test in 15 minutes for less than 200 baht.

Too bad they don't improve incubators as often as new varients of Covid crop up. Remember incubators ?

I haven't seen anyone in Thailand not wearinig a mask except when they are eating in a restruant. I am amazed everyday by the mask decipline of everyone about me. Yes, in America you don't have to wear a mask so most don't. I did see a beggar not wearing a mask, I gave him one of those I carry around; a clean never been used one.

Thanks for suggesting Gai Yang. I didn't know what it was but googling shows I've seen it on the streets many times. Grilled chicken; now I've got courage enough to try it.

Scary thought, China losing control of its nuclear arsenal.

You are coreect but that won't stop them from trying. ????

That 'no more' could work out to be real soon if you have to return for medical care. I'd also guess that once you are all better you could quit part-B again.

Only the one for the deceased.

I like that option well enough. You think it a better option to go to Guam than Phillipinnes?

The FEHB ; they know you are overseas? I ask because I have the BCBS Fepblue and a bit afraid to declare my outside the states residence as more than travel.

BTW, I entered Thailand around the 5th of Sept on a 45 day visa excempt. Then 15 days before that ran out I applied for the 90 day visa. Now in two weeks I use the TM7 (800k in bank for 4 years already) to get an extension of 365 days for purposes of retirement. The immigration office did express vigorously that I MUST apply for Retirement Excemption TM7 at their office ONLY. This was not Jomtien or Bangkok.

Is it then a TM7 for the retirement extension?

Many that Covid-19 would have been fatal for had previously succumbed to haze in the air? That's my first best guess. Covid-19 was late to the table for many in Chiang Mai.

149 positives out of 116,000 tests ; I wonder what the rate of flase positives is. Could be not all of those 149 really had Covid-19 and what percentage of them were asymptomatic ?

One of the most important functions of Government is to Protect the Rights of the minority, especially from the mojority.
