Lot of folds in that path apparently. Buddhism, like Christianity is a business and nobody ever won any prices by being honest in business.

quite! No PT, no Mr T

ethics doesn't pay the rent

Wait until she changes to Jersey potatoes, she'll have something to complain about cost.

The owl did it.

you have to love those 'p' taking smiles......."Whose a clever boy"

Got it from a bog wall in Saafend innit.

There is no me or you, no seeker, no enlightenment, no disciple and no guru. There is no better or worse, no path or purpose, and nothing that has to be achieved. All appearance is source. All that apparently manifests in the hypnotic dream of separation – the world, the life story, the search for home, is one appearing as two, the nothing appearing as everything, the absolute appearing as the particular. There is no separate intelligence weaving a destiny and no choice functioning at any level. Nothing is happening but this, as it is, invites the apparent seeker to rediscover that which is . . . the abiding, uncaused, unchanging, impersonal silence from which unconditional love overflows and celebrates. It is the wonderful mystery.

You are taking an example from the 'Dao Te Jing' by Lao Tzu apparently, "The best reaction is no reaction".

I make no distinctions between Thais and falangs, both comprise of good and bad. Supporting two dipsticks like those two is what makes us look bad. They've been taught a lesson, 'leave your bad manners at the building site or wherever you've crawled out from'.

Professional bribery expert isn't on the list of occupations.

I'm British.........they aren't 'my own', they're a pair of trouble making dipsticks who deserved what they got, probably haven't a brain between them so a kick to the head could do no harm.

Britain's finest didn't know that.

What a gruesam thought. The stuff of nightmares.

Not necessarily, the cute little monsters (she aint cute) aren't as innocent as they look. About 25 years ago there was a case in Germany where a 14 year old girl was encouraging her school friends to offer blow jobs to men at a certain pub in her town, the police took her to identify all the men she had serviced and arrested them.

Fat is the word you are looking for.

How do you know it was simple? We only have his word that it was botched, it isn't all that unusual that limbs are shortened after a traumatic accident.

Yes, this wasn't an advisory, it was a warning.

Like tourists care, or even know about, the political situation in Thailand, this isn't Ukraine after all. They've miscalculated their exaggerations and the political impasse will have to make do as an excuse. Why would they be wary of demonstrations, they would watch the punch up, not take part in it.

Life can be tough but as you say, one has to roll with the punches. With the proper shoes this won't interfere with his hobby, he could reinvent himself as 'Conner the limp McBride'.

In a rural environment buffaloes crossing the road are to be expected. At night this is a danger and although often seeing buffalo at the roadside during the day I have never seen one out at night, I've seen them being herded into their stalls in the evening.

In the UK it's usually a civilized wife beating (guns are hard to come by) but apart from that there are the indiscriminate stabbings on the street which one doesn't seem to get in Thailand. Jealousy is a human emotion that even Brits experience.

Not necessarily, if the cobra only felt startled but wasn't attacked it needn't have used venom, venom is valuable to the snake and needs to be replenished so it won't waste it but will save it for its prey which she obviously wasn't.
