I wonder what the over/under is on the percentage of the report to be redacted. Obviously, anything that paints Trump in a bad light, but how much of the report deals with Trump versus his co-conspirators. 

So the cyclist was in the middle of the road instead of one side and he thinks he has no responsibility and is considering a lawsuit. Ridiculous. 

Well done, maybe it should include a link or be sponsored by a doctor that can write my medication (marijuana) prescription. 

I only use E-95 for the last tank of gas and storage (so, two tanks) before I return home for an extended stay. No reason not to use the least expensive recommended fuel (91). I read that alcohol in the fuel pulls moisture out of the air so you should not store vehicles with fuel containing alcohol.  (benzine 95 alcohol-free)

Tragic, very glad to have seen it earlier in my life. It will probably take several decades to rebuild and several billion dollars as well.

I don't use FaceBook, prefer LINE to WhatsApp, and for IG I just follow a few local GoGo's and sexy Thai models so no big deal. Never noticed an IG outage.

Should have sprayed the roof deck with water until he was washed off. 

Simple, they should set up a triangular course that the banana tow boats go around. The course should take 10 minutes at towing speed. 

8 pm seems reasonable to me. When the sun goes down the water takes a chill. Stop the water antics and let the drinking continue.  

Rains forecast to come late and to be lite. Things may scrape by this year but next year could be terrible. It's time the Thai government brought in foreign water management consultants to come up with a plan to improve water retainment during the rainy season, especially during heavy rain flood years. With so much rain there is no reason to go through the dry season with drought.

China has not lived up to its commitments to change for 50 years yet they want tariffs to end now in exchange for a promise to change in the future. China has had 50 years. The US should start with that as a frame of reference. Tariffs will end 50 years after change, and negotiate from there. Perhaps tariffs will end 5 years after all commitments have been 100% lived up to.

If these are the boats in question then it depends who was on what side of the other boat, as to who gives way.

i.e.

a boat approaching from your starboard side has right of way.

if under sail The rules are universal and still apply.

if a boat is not underway either by sail or motor then the rule still applies, but given the boat underway/ under some form of power other than drift has inherently more control it is usually assumed they are to take steps to avoid the drifting vessel.

like the road all driver/steerers of boats must take all precaution to avoid collision.

if adrift then this vessel skipper should be signalling to other vessels before possible collision takes place I.e. drifting into moored vessels, wVe like hell n yell or use radio too.

excessive speed, of course, when  contradicting local or national waterway laws can affect application of such starboard and port side approach rules e.g. a jet ski loosing control and plowing into a boat behaving in a sensible manner and on a sensible course would get busted for it.

so says an old salty sea dog.

Looks like the fishing boat was a stand-up rowboat. The vessel under power should have avoided him in my opinion.

Black-water, a euphemism for sewage in Thailand.

Good sales with plastic water guns and water proof cell phone packets imported from China. And similar to holiday spending in the West, there will be a decrease in consumer spending starting next week since everyone has spent their last baht for the New Year.

Don't worry, next week when Songkran ends thousands like myself who have hunkered down in our man caves avoiding the bucket brigade soaking and carnage will emerge and help drive the Thai economy.

Give Prayut 7 days he can fix it.

Of course he can, he just has to pick 7 days in June or July. 

Roads are for vehicles, sidewalks for pedestrians. I would suggest that he smokes on the sidewalk or better yet give up smoking. 

Must be someone who thought they were important. 

The headline is incorrect. It should not read 26 million rai of land destroyed, instead, 26 million rai of land perfectly prepared for next season's mushroom harvest.
