  1. "Motorbike taxi drivers, stationed nearby, intervened in an attempt to calm the situation." That's got to be a first, ya think?
  2. But but... he had his big boast of obliterating their nuke program. What's left to hit?
  3. Just what/where is "California University"? "Cal" usually refers to U of California Berkley... University of California Los Angeles" (UCLA) doesn't qualify? "University of Southern California (USC)" the same? Then there are spots like "UC Davis"... If she went to Stanford... nope. "I hit Google AI for what makes a professor in Thailand and it spit out this (minus "vibrant") In Thailand, the title of "Professor" (ศาสตราจารย์ - sàatrǎa-jaan) at a university is generally attained through a combination of academic achievements, teaching experience, and research contributions. Typically, one must hold a doctoral degree (PhD) and have a distinguished record of teaching and scholarly work within their field".hmmm went on to say sometimes a master's degree is enough But I prefer Phd: "Piled Higher Deeper" This going after her reminds me of when PM was deposed for having a cooking show.
  4. Maybe the Maga crowd will share from their warehouses... at a hefty markup, of course
  5. It does appear hotels aren't getting ID's for lady "visitors" like used to be required. Couple of assaults in last week or so. Maybe it is time to bring back mandatory ID recording...
  6. I'd say Japanese are the least "street smart" nationality, living in a safe country and all. Hope that explains why this naive moron was out by himself in sleezeville at 4:40 in the frickin' morning.
  7. The Buddha clearly taught not to base belief on faith, full stop! “Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.” Buddha quotes (Hindu Prince Gautama Siddharta, the founder of Buddhism, 563-483 B.C.)
  8. Hard to get figures, but AQI of 22 looks like equal to 1 cigarette. The air pollution in Thailand is murderous, literally, with numbers above 100 typical. If they do all the air scrubbing and what have you for smoking rooms, they just might end up having cleaner air than outside the terminal! Like I said, I don't smoke any more, but it still irks me the discrimination against smokers that puritain types put them on the level of Jeffrey Epstein. They are using a legal product in the intended manner... personally I'd rather be addicted to nicotine than the internet/social media But that' just me
  9. The cops in Thailand need to stop play acting at being police and actually be police.
  10. I quit smoking 3 or 4 yrs ago, so didn't know they shut down smoking rooms.... why do they need a "prototype"? They used to have smoking rooms. Just fire those up again. Why reinvent the wheel?
  11. This is a great docu about tagging NYC trains etc, hip hop origins, etc. Esp fun is when their graffiti went mainstream with showings in art galleries. From 1983
  12. School of life has a high tuition for numbskulls
  13. How many did JC get on youtube or twitter? I'll guess none. In case you haven't noticed, or don't care to take into account, this is now an age when streaming. HBO, tons of web sites etc are vying for our time. SO it is disingenuous or just plain ignorant to compare apples and oranges. And your conclusion about late show obsession with Trump killed them is plain unsupported and charitably ignorant
  14. Soon to be on youtube and some sort of "idiots behind the wheel" cheap thrills TV filler program
  15. What the heck are you talking about?
