Best ways to pull yourself out of a slump?
Skeptic7 replied to bob smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub

Don't mean to blow smoke in yo face, but WHY❓Do you need to work...bored...think it's a guaranteed winner❓(it's not) Seeing nothing but rude awakenings coming out of this. Foreign/Thai business partnerships have always been dicey and moreso now than ever. Thailand and unscrupulous go hand in hand. Also competition is stiff and you know nothing about this business. You're just another ripe for the picking money man. What could possibly go wrong? ???? If you go thru with it...best be prepared for the worst (fleeced). Truly hope it works out well. Best wishes.

Every other one...ever. Trump is unique...one-of-a-kind...when it comes to lies, exaggeration, bloviating and shear absurdity. He's #1 and in a league ALL his own.

Russian man dies after jump from pagoda at Chalong Temple
Skeptic7 replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
"I believe I can fly". (Can't) "Gonna fly like an eagle". (Nope) Eight Miles High (BINGO!) -
Yeah that's gonna happen...NOT. If this fantasy you invoked was real (isn't) and gave a flying fluck...should have "blessed" and prevented all this BEFORE these poor girls were used and abused. Typical religious after the fact do-nothing, does nothing, means nothing and accomplishes nothing BS. Thoughts and prayers...FAIL❗

Late reply from 90 day report
Skeptic7 replied to steveb5's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Such a simple task, yet many Immigration offices can't manage to get it done in even a semi-timely manner. Totally typical for Thailand and totally unacceptable. Which lame ass office is it this time...CW again? Jomtien gets a bad rap, but they get 90-day reports approved same day everytime. -

555...33 years vegan and closing in on 30 years in Thailand. Also grew up in Florida. Was definitely an outlier among family and friends at meal time, as they all loved sealife and I never touched it. To each their own. Fresh or not...it always smells foul to me. NO exceptions. -
I agree. Look away, walk away. Pretend you're unaware. No good deed goes unpunished. People generally SUCK.

Never ate sealife ever. Lovely creatures living, but smell abhorrent dead...cooked or not. Total gagfest whenever anyone or any place cooks it. Airlines should ban it as the stink is unbearable. ???? -
From where does this info "appear"❓ Nowhere that I've read or seen...and earlier today I searched extensively. The rule is first violation is a 2 stroke penalty, then an ensuing violation results in DQ. Nowhere could I find that they were warned and assessed the 2-stroke penalty prior to the DQ. If privy to such pertinent info, would be much appreciated if you could provide it. Rather, it seems officials were made aware of multiple violations and she was DQ'd. The following is excerpted from Golf Monthly... Vongtaveelap was even par through five holes but was not allowed to continue after USGA officials found that her caddie, Jinsup Kim, had used a rangefinder on multiple occasions.

Trump and his imbecile cult followers are "fake-triots". They stand for and support most things UN-American.

Currently ONLY distance is permitted. Any other info other than distance is a breach of the rules. The golfers are only allowed to use the laser rangefinders to measure the distance. They are not permitted to use the equipment to calculate the true distance when playing on the slope. Golfers are also not allowed to measure wind or use the device to compute other data in its capacity during the competitive game. Rule 4.3a (1) Distance and Directional Information. Allowed: Getting information on distance or direction (such as from a distance-measuring device or compass). Not Allowed: Measuring elevation changes, or Interpreting distance or directional information (such as using a device to get a recommended line of play or club selection based on the location of the player's ball).

Unless they weren't notified until the DQ. Seems the officials were notified of multiple infringements all at once. Otherwise, yes...would be blatant cheating...which seems unlikely. In golf, TV viewers many times report rules infringements they see that officials don't. Then vids are reviewed. If it's determined to be correct info... penalties are assessed, including DQ. Ignorance of the rules doesn't matter. This is excerpted from Golf Monthly Vongtaveelap was even par through five holes but was not allowed to continue after USGA officials found that her caddie, Jinsup Kim, had used a rangefinder on multiple occasions.

The devices are mostly permitted in ladies golf since 2021, but not at all tournaments. Also LPGA, USGA and R&A are not consistent and in agreement on their use. Too bad for sure, but they (golfer and caddie are a team) need to be privy to the rules of the different golf associations and individual tournament rules. A tough lesson learned the hard way and presumably she/they won't make this mistake again.

Surprised it took till now for this tired, silly topic to gobble the gullible.
