New York has food from all over the world. Duh,

Same-same but different. I grew up in and around New York City.... they're joined at the hip.

Make it "wench"...there, fixed it for you. I'd say "tart", but hey, to each his own.

Do you really need to ask?

Easy-does-it Felton. Control yourself or they will be coming after you next.

Boston Inn? Just a guess. It was famous/infamous back in the day. The only thing it lacked was Charles Sobhraj.

Duped again. He's a bloody fool.

He gets it from me. I'm the original... one and only. Over the years there have been contenders for the title but they have all faded away, exposing themselves as impostors by showing a little common sense or good judgement in one way or another.

Nothing whatsoever. It's just a knee-jerk reaction from someone with an agenda to push. Anything that promotes or improves Thai/Iranian relations is to be immediately condemned or ridiculed. Got it?

What a hideous outfit. It even makes little Ung Ing look chic.

"To each his own." Indeed. For some it is mushy peas and kidney pie reeking of urine. Around our house in my Thai hood there are often pervasive cooking odors that make me want to barf. It goes with the territory - live with it - I tell myself.

The shoe is on the other foot now, isn't it?

"And, do you think there will be a remake of the famous GWTW film? Who will play Scarlet(t), I do wonder." Good question. A remake would have to be "woke" in every sense of the word. Lizzo as a contemporary Southern Belle would be perfect. Casting a modern-day Rhett Butler might be more difficult and require some input from the various groups that took umbrage at Clark Gable's macho character in the original.

How old are you, Pete?

His answer sounds like a "no" with an added dig at the UK. Many, if not most, of the Australians I've known have been a touchy lot, quick to take offence at trifles.
