    Excrement is good, in fact.

    I grew up in a Jewish neighborhood.

     

    We say blessings, upon excretion.

     

    I still follow this practice, today.

     

    And, so far.....

    I have never needed a laxative....

     

    Knock on Wood.

     

     

     

    What's your prayer? 'Thank god I'm not constipated?' Or "Thank god, because I've got severe Bangkok Belly I managed to get to the kahzi before I s**t myself.'?

  2. I find this discrimination against plumbers offensive and hurtful. As a young plumber back in the 1940s I was one of those that enabled the population to have piped water and their excrement got rid of without getting their hands dirty. They would make expert MOD's, whatever they are? and good leaders and members of parliament. Many who seem to be up to their elbows in the stuff. I propose a Plumber's Pride Parade. Where plumbers can flaunt their tools and plungers to gain attention and equal rights. PPP has a nice ring to it.😉

    I beg to differ Joe has lots and lots of real world experience in matters of state and diplomacy.trump has experience of being a loud mouth New Yorker with a big mouth and money.without an open Mike to make a circus trump will get clobbered bigley!!

    Yes, Biden has the experience but unfortunately he is well past his sell by date. I think he may struggle in the suggested two hour debate. But you can't turn the clock back. One wonders who is the next leader of the Democrats in waiting?

  4. Never send food back to the kitchen. The chef is likely to take revenge by adding a 'not nice' ingredient. I remember Keith Floyd relating a story on the wireless many years ago. A customer used to eat at his restaurant and say the food was very nice, but.." Always something to fault. Keith elaborately prepared a beer mat, British type. "Especially for you." The customer enjoyed it without a complaint. You never know what these chefs are up to.😉

  5. Something smells about this article. Old wives tale or fact? How often while having one beer or a g+t have I heard my wife say "You're drinking. I was just going to give you some durian." I would think that if you are consuming a bucket of beer then it would be unwise to eat durian, my favourite fruit. Ripe that is. Burp! Pardon me.😋

    in the states the GOP response is thoughts n prayers as kids rae gunned down in school..yet nothing is done about it

    The usual rolled out 'thoughts and prayers' mantra is as much use as a one legged man in a backside kicking contest. Prayers achieve nothing. Deeds do.

    Why do these reports always feature the commanders of the various squads/stations when it’s actually the lance corporals and sergeants who actually conduct the investigations?

     

    in the UK the commanders might appear at a press conference for an extremely serious or troubling case, otherwise they are not mentioned.

    Gaining Face. The look at me syndrome.😉 

  8. Re. My 'Anyone confused by TM7 form' question. I did my application yesterday 8th May at Jomtien and it went very quickly. Maybe because my wife was in charge as usual. The only hiccup was that I had to go and get another photo, this time with a white background. No comment on the amount of Tippex white paper I'd used on my application form. The young officer handling the application recognised my wife from previous years and congratulated here on all her documentation being perfect. As for me. I sat like a dummy and kept schtum. Passport to be collected Monday.. It used to be 'after 2 o'clock.' Then 'the next day.' Maybe the accumulation of public holidays has caused the delay. Anyway. I'm chilled out till next year.

    It reminds me of the advise supposedly given to the colonial ladies' If you are being raped, there is nothing you can do about it. Just lay back and thing of England.'😉

    Does anyone else get confused about the way the TM7 form is laid out. Time and again, I fill it in and then realise that I've filled it in under the wrong headings. There must be a way for Immigration to produce a form simple enough for ninety year old codgers like me to get right first time. My brain hurts.😉

    Has anyone submitted a computer printed TM7 that's in black ink to Jomtien Immigration and its been accepted?
