There is an extant portion of the New Testament, a copy, reliably dated to the early second century AD. The Old Testament allowed Hebrew patriarchs to put their penis inside several body cavities of all their wives and concubines, and probably of Gentile harlots. Masturbation is nowhere clearly forbidden in either Testament. The NT does not restrict a Christian to one wife.

Faulty analogy........Theory and practice are like women and men. One is of no use without the other. -
Boyfriend said both his Yamaha Elegance and Honda PXI came with tubeless. And his Phantom and my CBR150R's. But the rims have to be designed for tubeless.

Off-topic, but flag-burning is not illegal in USA, I think.
However, this is the rule here: "7) Not to post slurs or degrading comments directed towards any group on the basis of race, nationality, religion, gender or sexual orientation."

Good for TCT to recognize creative teaching.

"The number of pregnant schoolgirls and university students sharply rose to about 10,000 last year.
In the past, the number had never risen beyond 5,000 in a year."
Numbers don't double in a year.
Do the mothers drop out of school forever?

Chiang Mai has pedestrian crosswalks with red lights and plenty of signs. Still dangerous, but nothing like BKK.
-
Bank of Ayuddayha charged about US$10 - a month to clear.

Actually sbk, a Wave 125 with disc brake is fine. But girls do ride CBR150's and you're tall enough (taller than Nok Lek).
-
The Tiger Boxer 231 has same hp as CBR150, I think.

For my entire childhood, the USA was obsessed with 3 boring team sports: baseball, basketball, and some brown ball with a point at each end. Later I realized those sports are only played in countries conquered by the U S Marines (Cuba, Nicaragua,Japan, Dom. Republic). I was a racing fanatic. My heroes have included Phil Hill, Kenny Roberts, Kevin Schwantz. But my heroes have more often been women than cowboys - Dorothy Day, Riboberta Menchú.

I can't compare to BKK - never lived there. But I can't see why BKK has any advantage.

You know what I like...Honda CBR150.
-
And there's no chance you'd pass the test, right?

Gee = I thought the Vino was Italian.

Good set of comments there by Ross Douthat. He quotes a title by Presbyterian author Francis Schaefer: How then should we live?. Buddhism may have answers.

You can post a link to a govt. website.Update:Teachers license Test registration is in effect from January 11th until January 31st (deadline) with the actual test taking place March 26th and 27th.
I think that it is against forum rules to provide a link, so PM me if you need the link to the online application form.

I never saw a red plate on a bike in Chiang Mai until 2008. Seldom see them yet. Your mileage may differ.
But white plates arrive after a month.
-
This thread was started by a BIG guy who rode Chiang Mai-Kuala Lamphur and return on a new CBR150. Piece of cake.

I think it differs by culture and sub-culture. I spent 35 years with t-total abstainers. Nobody drank.
-
I knew peace workers who spent a long time there. But it doesn't get mentioned much by Yankees or Mexicans, nor by Thais or Burmese. It's as well known as....Aruba?

Same as around the block on the old Phantom 200. As different as night and day, even worse. Same reason I never rode my pastor's BSA 441 Victor in 1997 - I hadn't ridden a backward Brit bike in 25 years.
Other than that, how do you like the bike? And how would you compare it to your 150 CBR? Things you like about it versus don't vis a vis the CBR? Sure....they are altogether different kinds of machines. When people first told me I should possibly look into an automatic I scoffed at them and laughed having had something like six or seven manual transmission bikes in the U.S., ten manual transmission cars and three pickup trucks (get the idea I preferred manuals) versus a grand total of one automatic equipped car and one automatic pickup. I'm no longer laughing at them.I took a spin around the block today on our PCX. Accidentally grabbed the left hand lever, which is a BRAKE. Couldn't get used to the controls. -
I think I paid the Thai price both times.
