Of course, I was forgetting that Trump has no say in what his army of spokesmen aka administration, says. Keep spinning.

Who do you believe?

How do you mean, "it was still not Trump"?

So which is later?

https://bbc.com/news/articles/cqjvyyn7k99o Not quite what you're reporting.

If you can't stand the heat (of competition and genius) get the hell out of the kitchen. You can't hold back progress. Hey, who invented the wheel? 4,000 years ago? In Mesopotamia. Sure as hell wasn't invented in California. Nuclear fission stemmed from experiments by Otto Hahn and his German colleagues in Berlin in 1938. So who's stealing from whom? If you look at just a few videos of Chinese trains, bridges, airports and ports, you'll begin to realise the extraordinary achievements from 1949 to the present. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Chinese_inventions

No, it's not a "fact". It's just your opinion. Repeating "...their God IS money and power" isn't a statement of fact. If I don't agree with you, you maintain it's still "a fact"! That's not an intelligent argument.

But you did say "Yeah well, since their God is money I doubt it will be free. ", which implies money is their God alone. You might have said "Like 99% of humanity, money is their God ". In other words, no different. Why demonize them, eh? You don't think western Big Pharma, oil companies and all the other mega corporation's don't worship it?

That's not news

Yes, I did. Nothing new there.

Oh, their God is money, but nobody else's, right?

Done. But how is this an advance on China's achievement? Even the UK has achieved short lived success. It's like quantum computing. Every nudge forward is hailed as an earth shattering breakthrough.

Is there a link to Germany's effort?

And yelling "Bomb" at the top of your voice. A very foolish thing to do.

Shinawat? That rings a bell. So he fell out of a tree while foraging! Honey, maybe. But happily landed by an 8 day water supply. Well, you never know your luck.

There have been previous releases of unredacted material.

It occurred to me the JFK aftermath explains a lot about why the US is such a hotbed of conspiracy theories. The government has a lot of form for it! I guess it explains why nobody believes anything they say.

Yeah, I just watched Oliver Stone's latest documentary on the "assassination". So many unanswered questions, cover ups, wrong data. Bullet entry and exit points reversed etc etc. Let's see what they come up with on the unredacted originals.

It's true, most are empty. I guess they have other businesses. There's one I know on Jomtien 2nd Rd which is always packed. Decent food of course and not too expensive. Most charge silly prices.

How many Indians do you see eating in an Indian restaurant? I see hundreds milling around the area on 2nd Road, but not often in any restaurants. Are they just a front for other activities?

Too early to say. Maybe he'll buy his way out. Hardly the crime of the century. I thought all these minor drug busts were a thing of the past. At least, in terms of custodial sentencing.

I have a mate who gets his blood sugar checked there. It costs him 180 THB. I pay minimum 1200 THB per visit at Bangkok Pattaya hospital just to see a doc.

Well yes, the 2nd part was a quote from a song "Who killed Bambi?" by Ten Pole Tudor, from the movie "The Great Rock and Roll Swindle" by Malcolm McLaren. In my book, hippies and junkies rate about the same for trustworthiness.

Many on Second Rd at the Pratamnak Hill end. Some good Indian restaurants there, so it's not all bad. I used to get a Thali for 120 THB. Now 150. But still a very tasty meal.

Same here. I had mine at Bangkok Hospital in Trad. The pre op medicine caused an earthquake in my lower abdomen, like a bomb went off. I just stood in the shower with the taps full on. So don't venture more than 6 ft from the bathroom once you've drunk it. Afterwards, in the op room, out like a light, and wake up when all is done. No after effects. They film the whole procedure and give you a CD to ensure no hanky panky. Just don't let your mates get their hands on it! You'll never live it down after nightly showings at your local 🤣🤣😳😳r some bright spark uploads it to his OnlyFans account.
