  1. Snakes really do come up toilets sometimes:

    A man in Thailand is recovering in hospital after a python latched its fangs onto his penis while he was using his toilet earlier this week.

    Rescuers arrived to find the python's head hanging from the bathroom door, secured by a rope, with the rest of the snake still stuck in the squat toilet at the man's home in Chachoengsao Province, east of Bangkok.

  2. Irrational jealousy, producing false invoice with false signature, going for expensive beautifying dental treatment, but won't have a filling repaired that causes her mouth to smell badly, pretending to be somewhere when she is not and not saying where she really is, going round bragging about how much i gave her when she a obtained a substantial chunk of it without my permission.

  3. Sometimes the management of a condominium wants to make improvements and try to raise the money by increasing the management fees, but are unsuccessful.

    The problem is that at a General Meeting 50% of the total voting rights are needed in favour of the proposal to increase the management fees and at a second General Meeting, called within 15 days of the first meeting, one-third of the total voting rights are needed in favour of the proposal.

    At many condominiums these percentages can never be achieved. Often, there are not even 50% and one-third of the voting rights represented at the meetings, respectively.

    So the management can never find the funds to do repair work and the buildings fall into a state of disrepair.

    The problem could be solved by an amendment to the Condominium Act reducing the percentages of voting rights needed. There was a reduction in 2008 by Condominium Act Nr 4 from 75% to 50% for the first meeting and from 50% to one-third at the second meeting, but these reductions have been insufficient to get the votes needed.
