nausea

Once again, the advice: "Know where your towel is at all times" (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy), has been vindicated.

Like Tucker Carlson, you mean.

75 years old, apparently.

Old guys do lots of weird stuff; live and let live, I say. Like spidermike007, I find they can be sexy on women; on men, they're meaningless these days; you're making more of a statement by keeping your body un-inked.

Life is pretty much same same, after a while, for me anyway; the honeymoon period is exciting, I'll give you that; mind you, I'm speaking from memory, haven't been back home (UK) in a long time, I get the impression things are pretty effed up there these days.

So the girls rioted over him, sounds pretty cool to me, hardly life scarring stuff.

Big bike, 24 years old, 4.30am; live fast, die young.

Believe me, all the psychic power in the world doesn't work when you have a bad toothache.

You can tighten the gun laws all you like, but the problem is supply, handguns are very easy to get here; was offered (unsolicited) one myself. Anyway, the real problem is knives, which are ubiquitous; I get the feeling guns are more of a status symbol thing.

Fake or real, it just emphasises that Thailand needs to direct limited resources to its real needs, i.e. coastal defence, rather than status symbols, such as submarines and aircraft carriers.

I fluctuate between Hia and Kwai; when in Rome ... .

Be thankful, it'll make your life seem longer; hey, I bet the people in Gaza ain't bored.

It's not the sugar per se, it's the sedentary lifestyle and the abundance; sugar just exacerbates the problem. Lots of sugar around when I was kid, it rotted our teeth, but I and my peers were pretty skinny.

i.e. fires blanks; carried to impress, I guess.

Europe is effed up economically - no money, no honey (or Koh Kut) for them.

"lucri bonus est odor ex re qualibet" (Juvenal) The smell of money is good wherever it comes from.

"In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist" Eisenhower

"As a result, Arne bounced into a car that was parked nearby" Yeah, at 58 you don't bounce so well. Arne was just unlucky, I guess, but wandering about at 3am does lower your luck points.

A populist, hare-brained scheme, IMHO, destined for disaster in one form or another; on the other hand, 10,000 baht into my SO's account ... .

Yeah, I agree with ezzra; the guy was in a hurry, all hassled up, not thinking straight, and gave the taxi driver two 500 Euro notes, instead of 500 baht notes.

Flash in the pan or a new policy, time will tell I suppose; anyway, it was always a risky strategy, get picked up before you hit the airport, and your screwed.

I don't take Macron seriously, he flip-flops with wind.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, with a bit of research I was able to narrow it down to a precise date in September 2019; thanks again for your help.

Yeah, that sounds about right; thanks for your help.
