Roger will be disappointed that you didn't buy the book. But then, I also didn't buy it. He gave me a signed copy. 😉

More than 20 years. Why do you ask?

You must be a sad man.

The movie? If there a movie based on that book?

If you like more of the same, enjoy this:

You clearly have the wrong idea what this is all about. Try to see it from the point of view of corrupt officials and their friends in the construction business. We need contracts to make lots of money. And big contracts equal big bribes. If the streets would be perfect, then nobody would think about repairing them. So, make sure they are bad and will never be good. More contract and more money. It’s not really that difficult to understand.

Some (maybe all) Dyson also have some features to clean (animal) hair which can easily clog ordinary vacuum cleaners.

I have three vacuum cleaners. And they are all different and work different. First, I bought a "normal" vacuum cleaner, something like this. It removes small parts (like parts of cookies on the floor), and it removes most dust. It has a dust bag which has to be replaced maybe every one or two weeks. (to be continued below) Then I bought a Dyson. It has no bag and is relatively small. It is perfect for dust and tight corners. But above mentioned cookie pieces are already too big for that thing. Last but not least I have a professional "dust extractor" No bags, just a big tank. Perfect for cleaning of construction sites and anything else with cookie sized debris. I can also use it to suck water after I change one filter. It's great to get an area roughly cleaned. But for the final touch then I would use the Dyson again.

He was a police officer. They are all like that - at least in their official description.

If you follow the traffic, then you don't hit a standing object. And if everybody drives too fast, do you also drive too fast? Really?

Yes, and because it is dangerous sensitive people drive slowly and make sure they have good headlights to see any obstacles. Assuming a road is clear, just like yesterday, is not a smart move. RIP

4000k is the color temperature (warm like a candle or daylight, etc.) It has nothing to do with the brightness. If you want to know about the brightness, then look for lumen or watts. Watts is not really a value for the brightness but in general, more watts = more brightness.

There are lots of options. And, IMHO, it's good that there are lots of options, because we all have different needs and taste. If you want post some pictures of the old things here. That should give me and others and idea what you had and what worked. And then maybe we can recommend some replacements. Or you can learn yourself about the differences. This guy has lots of videos and a good website with all the details. https://quinled.info/ https://www.youtube.com/@IntermitTech

And don't forget the human rights activist Benjamin Netanyahu...

Correct. Please tell me which clean politician Thailand should invite? Let's start with the basics: He/she should not fight any wars except maybe in their own country to defend themselves. And they should not support any other country which does that. Where are all the clean leaders who sanctioned the USA when they illegally invaded Iraq? Where are all the clean leaders who say in public the leader of that country which bombs civilians and hospitals and cuts of civilian's water, food and electricity should be prosecuted?

No But then, as far as I know nobody ordered the killing of my family. How many people were killed on orders of the America, UK, China, Russia, Israel, Myanmar, Philippines, to name just a few? I didn't count, but think about how many innocent people died in the last 20 years because of the military actions by the USA in Afghanistan, Iraq, and other countries. Did Russia military kill more people? And does it really matter if they killed 100,000 or "only" 10,000? It seems all countries and their politicians do what they want - independent of right or wrong. And the biggest countries with the biggest military normally get away with whatever they do. Do I like that? No. But that is reality.

I guess I would have been upset about that years ago. Not anymore. Because if Thailand would not invite any politicians who did something bad anymore, who would be left? No Russia, China, America, and many more. Would that be overall good for Thailand? I don't think so. And then there is the argument that to improve relations and behavior people have to talk to each other.

No, it's definitely not normal. Are you sure you tried to press it completely in? It seems sometimes they have some (child?) protection, and it takes a little bit of wiggling to press it completely in.

He is obviously a very sick man. We should make sure he will be in a quiet hospital room for the rest of his life. Make sure there are no reporters or anybody else who could distract him from concentrating on his health.

As expected, nobody thought this through. Let's promise cash to our voters and let's sort out all these little details later. What could possibly go wrong?

Maybe Phnom Penh, Cambodia. I was there a few times for a few days in general I felt comfortable. Would I like to live there for months or years? I don't know. But I would give it a try.

Don't you ever have anything nice to say? To be fair, there are not so many nice things on the front line.

Come on, if you would have to give one of those guys a BJ, how much would you charge?
