  1. I goggled it for 'ya. https://www.diymountainbike.com/lockout-fork-mountain-bike/
  2. I thought wokeness and intersectionality ideology decreed that such holes should be referred to as Maintenance Holes. But I bet it took some manpower to put the cover back over the hole.
  3. Virtue signaling is becoming quite the fashion.
  4. Who remembers the article from years ago when a muppet found a similar device, put it in his workshop vice and proceeded to attack it with a hacksaw. He learned about cause and effect the hard way.
  5. If you had stayed an extra minute, you would have seen them file your documents in the big round filing cabinet.
  6. My golf caddy ended up in Dubai on the same scam about seven years ago. Her passport was confiscated but she had her phone and was able to communicate on Line. She refused to provide the required services, but by all accounts was treated humanely. She and two friends that went with her spent days contacting family trying to raise the funds to buy them out of the supposed contracts. I can't recall the exact amount, I think in the region of 500K Baht each. I recall thinking at the time that as the amount was 10 times more than the cost of airfares and accommodation, that the scam was actually kidnapping for ransom, and not about prostitution. Anyway, they all managed to raise the money from friends and family after about two weeks, and was back on the golf course, telling me she was inquiring about going to Korea.
  7. I extended mu OA at Jomtien last week. They did not give me the reminder notice about the need to return in 3 months to show the bank balance. I can't recall when they first started doing this - maybe five years ago? But I have never once gone back to do it, and never had a problem.
  8. Thai drivers do not park their vehicles. They merely cease driving.
  9. So we can no longer expect to see headlines such as "Hilux runs off road, 4 dead and 22 injured".
