I've got half a dozen versions of Walk, Don't Run by various artists. Obviously, by The Ventures, too. But there's a lot of versions on YouTube by various artists and guitar teachers. You may want to start there.

So, what they're saying is that the climate changes independent of human forces. But we need to spend redistribute $trillions of dollars. -

History will not be kind to their legacy. And they deserve every bit of the criticism. -
Holy Rigatoni! Is "authentic" Italian food actually American?
impulse replied to Jingthing's topic in Political Soapbox
Americans didn't invent pizza. We just made it better. Especially in Chicago and New York. It's kind of like Mexican food. We took an inexpensive cuisine, adjusted it with better and more expensive ingredients and charge out the wazoo for it. I'm gobsmacked when I see what some places get for a burrito. And a deep dish pizza. Don't get me started on what we did to the price of a cuppa. -
Driver Crashes Car, Toppling 15 Utility Poles, Damaging 4 Vehicles

15... He's in the lead for 2025. But it's early days. -
I think that goes a long way to explaining why they don't get the luv from Thai motorists that ambulances get back in the nanny state. Everyone knows that there's a real high probability that they're racing each other to the scene so they can beat the 4 other ambulances racing them, and a low probability that they're actually hauling a patient.

They should just get Hunter to confess and close the case. He's immune...

Thailand Aims to Woo Elite Tourists Amidst Regional Rivalry
impulse replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
If they're aiming at luxury tourists that spend $180 a day, they're missing the meaning of "luxury". They can't attract high fliers with the kind of experience they can even hope to provide at a cost of $180 a day. -
Worked for me and my resentment toward the ex, but it was 30 days. The first step was realizing that knot was in my stomach, making my life miserable. She was oblivious. Just like the Bad Orange Man is oblivious to the knot in lefty guts. They're the ones suffering, not him. From that unrecognized syndrome...

Just using the Chao Phraya boats as an example, I have paid in advance, paid on the boat, and paid at the destination pier. In K-Buri, I pay the longtail guy after the ride. Which works well for him, because I pay 1000 baht for the 800 baht hour trip. I'd be reluctant to tip in advance, not knowing whether it'll be a favorable experience. OTOH, I could do a runner at any of the landmarks and cemeteries on the itinerary. So I can see both sides, especially at 2:00AM when they may not have anyone on duty collecting fares before the ride. Which would seem to be the most practical solution. Edit: BTW, shameless (and off topic) plug... If you're ever at the Bridge on the River Kwai in K-Buri, I highly recommend the longtail tours starting under the bridge. I saw some fascinating stuff, like the other WWII cemetery, temples in caves (that doubled as bomb shelters during WWII), and the lesser known museum that isn't as comprehensive as the great Aussie run museum, but still fascinating if you like history. You get to choose where they take you...

That was a feint, to see if they could push Zelensky and his cronies to leave the country and move to their mansions around the world and end the conflict without killing a million people. Sadly, the US and UK convinced Zelensky to fight on.

99% of the people I encounter on a daily basis don't know about mine, either. For years, it was forbidden to even discuss deleterious side effects, under threat of being excluded from any future socializing. I'm glad we're finally allowed to peak at the data and talk about what happened to us, though a lot is still being squelched.

Yeah. I, on the other hand would give anything to go back and undo my 2nd Pfizer. Symptoms starting the next day have diminished my quality of life and my health to this day, almost 4 years later.
