Hilary looked old yesterday in Moscow.

My point is that there are a whole group of American pensions - national, federal, veterans, SS, SSI, private, state, local, teachers, private, etc. - all called pensions.

The family were big in silk. They had built a successful family business. He was a lieutenant colonel.

Jewish religion HAD the worlds longest consistent history of practical pacifism... until 1945. There are Rabbis for Peace in Israel. And Palestinian pacifists.

But this is a thread about a dead Thai.

Both mine were box stock. 140 indicated top speed, weighing 91 plus a backpack and tank bag.

This is a thread about a Thai killed in Middle East. Not about Zionist/Palestinian conquest.

Jack, I go 125 kph on an elevated freeway in the fast lane. And 115 kph on an open 2-lane road. I could not exceed 90 kph on the Phantom.

The sign is huge free-standing letters on the lawn, as I recall.

I don't care, but it keeps folks on Thai Visa.

AFAIK, SSI COLA increases are mandated, permanently. No increase during deflation.

There are many pensions in the USA: military, federal and state civil service, veterans, private pensions, school employees, police, fire, counties, etc.

Class warfare is initiated and led usually by upper class elites who were denied access to supreme power. They adopt a populist stance which attracts mainly the disenfranchised poor. However it is a clash of rich titans. In this case, old money versus new money. The poor are being played as pawns.

See Somoza Falling, by Anthony Lake.

The bf said it rained hard in San Hamphaeng.

The rest of the world hasn't heard of Thailand.

Cured, Four hour wait for the clinic. 400 baht for the cure. Cured.

Er, Seven years of anxiety, visit, then go, "cured, four hour wait for the clinic. 400 baht for the cure. Cured". Result. Shakes head.

His seven year wait was his fault. They told him the clinic opened in 4 hours. Cured.

Maybe he did go the the free clinic, but then he wouldn't have paid a satang. I paid not a satang for my consult with the specialist at the free clinic.

I cruise at 125 kph safely.

Rent in a one-bedroom tiny old apt. in Houston $550 per month. In Chiang Mai a spacious semi-furnished 85 sq, meter, two-bedroom, two-bath with scenic views and balconies under $200/month even at today's rates.

No comparison. Smog's worse. M/C far more expensive in Texas. Schools - none.

I'm 67, been here 7 years. No breathing problems. Walk and swim every day. This is the worst pollution I've ever seen. Dry throat and eyes. One km visibility.

Cured, Four hour wait for the clinic. 400 baht for the cure. Cured.

And millions that are not.

From the Southernn Baptist Convention, the largest Protestant body in the US, website:

We affirm God's plan for marriage and sexual intimacy – one man, and one woman, for life. Homosexuality is not a "valid alternative lifestyle." The Bible condemns it as sin. It is not, however, unforgivable sin. The same redemption available to all sinners is available to homosexuals. They, too, may become new creations in Christ.

You seem to imply that they have no right to their opinion of what defines a moral life.

I don't see that. He's expressing his disagreement about an issue.

I was a heterosexual Southern Baptist for 25 years. I know the basis of the doctrinal statement of their theology, which is the Bible. "One man, one woman" is not supported by one scrap of Scripture. Southern Baptists are polygamists in practice, and they put their penises in warm places other than their wife's vagina, without sinning unless they married other women. And they don't repent of polygamy.

I've back to riding the CBR to and from rice rice paddy. Road visibility's below 1 km and very smoky.

Move out of BKK. Don't expect Western courtesy. Learn Thai or make them actually speak English. Pay for courtesy. Relax.

Live-in boyfriend without kids is less expensive. Switch sides.

The AOT closed the airport, after the Thaksin government did not evict them. Thaksin's fault.

Dear Mr. Prime Minister

I would like Thais to speak English. I would accept British English. And legalize gay marriage. And devalue the baht.
