  1. So, give me some links of lying and corruption that is all over the place:)
  2. Very confusing article indeed. The original article talks about replacing an existing Airbus A340 and upgrading a Saab 340, but the picture shows something entirely different (looks like a Tupulev). They talk about airbus rather as a concept than the Airbus brand?? The Saab aircraft is older, if anything needs replacement it would be that one?
  3. Kinnock, known for his excellent speeches, have always fully supported Biden and states himself Biden made a honest mistake. Biden never writes his own speeches. This was the one and only time he was accused of plagiarism and probably cost him the nomination at the time. Biden do some gaffes sometimes and is well known for them. They are never done in malice or spite unlike just about everything Trump utters. For the other accusations about being a moron, liar and corrupt, please present evidence if you are going to accuse someone of those things. Evidence for Trump being a complete idiot has been out there in just about every appearance he makes.
  4. Biden has a lifelong problem with stuttering. Trump says things out of pure ignorance and stupidity.
  5. It is strange how well educated Americans, graduating from Yale and Harvard such as Ron DeSantis and for example Ted Cruz are transformed to complete <deleted> and dumb donkeys when they get older/ or become politicians. If you listen to any of them for more than 30 seconds it is mind blowing how much garbage comes out. And I mean really stupid stuff. Or is it just that you can earn a magna cum laude in America by just being stupid? And that thing with the Thigh food that Ron did just shows a serious flaw in character.
  6. There are many level instruments that use radioactive material for measuring the level in tanks.
  7. Now why would a national forensic scientist even come close to involvement in the military purchasing empty boxes with bogus metal probes sticking out of them?
  8. I am kind of perplexed why these online shopping companies can't organize deliveries better, like gathering items with the same delivery name and address and order date same or not too far apart into a single delivery, that shouldn't be too difficult. Not long ago I ordered two different items from Amazon and tracked the packages moving around all over the USA until finally they arrived at some airport hub for delivery to Thailand. I swear they travelled around America for several days befors arriving at that airport. Horrible waste of time, energy and resources.
  9. I have not been to the Pattaya or Jomtien beaches for many years, Just before Covid hit, my sister was staying at a hotel just near the Jomtien beach, and she said she had to reserve the chairs everyday for the next day. Because the number of areas was reduced when the Pattaya municipal ordered there be vendor free areas on all beaches. I don't know how it is now, but judging from the traffic in Pattaya a few weeks ago, it is as busy as it was before Covid. My recommendation: Go to the Secret beach at Naklua (it says "Sashimi Secret Beach" on Google), Drive down towards the beach and just before the road makes a right turn, there is a parking area to the left. Go down to the beach and when you reach the beach, turn left and walk as far as you can, you will reach a restaurant on the beach that provide chairs and tables and cheap tasty food. Lots of shade under the trees and they provide beach umbrellas as needed. Come early if a weekend, full of Thais coming around noon.
  10. What I was thinking too. The owner of the card is unaware that the card details have been skimmed. You can skim card details by just standing next to the person I think nowadays. There are sites on the Tor that sell stolen credit cards en masse.
  11. You bought bananas, not a ticket. I bet there wasn't a sign at the lady stating that you have to buy her bananas in order to feed the monkeys. I'm guessing this is Lop buri?
  12. Any other comment I have, condos with a sea view are generally priced higher. This is one reason I would never buy a sea view, the other being you get pretty bored of the sea view after a week or so. I would buy something with a view towards woods or hills on a low level (so you can always use the stairs and easy to get out if emergency). The woods will mute sound and make the condo unit really peaceful and tranquil, and provide shade.
  13. Number 1: take a good look at the condo management and committee. If that is not up to good standards then forget about it. How many co-owners are actually paying their community charges? Are the accounts in order? If the common areas are in disrepair or not kept clean and neat, be suspicious. Of course old elevators is difficult for management to do anything about, but at least they should be clean and certified once every year.
  14. Yes, you buy something, and then expect to be able to rescind on the deal, very strange. And why not bring your own monkey food from home or elsewhere? And why feed the monkeys in the first place? I don't understand anything in this story. Like feeding stray soi dogs, what's the end purpose?
  15. Another phone scam is someone calling you and saying there has been suspicious activity from your internet connection, but it can all be cleared up by paying some fee. And then it is the one that states your phone has been involved in criminal activity etc. etc. ???? I also got the one from the post office same same but where I live in central Thailand.
  16. Strange procedure. For Swedish passports, mail is not an option. You have to make an appointment at the Embassy, personally apply for a new passport, pay there with a credit card or cash, wait for about 2 weeks and then come back to the Embassy and personally receive the new passport. No mailing is allowed. As a side note, our local post office stopped delivering mail years ago, they only deliver registered mail and parcels (online shopping).
  17. McDonald?? There is no genuin American food, unless you count native American cuisine. All food recipes are imported from various countries all over the world.
  18. Everybody knows there is no prostitution in Pattaya. Droves upon droves of male tourists flocking to the place like ants to a pile of sugar can attest to this very well known fact. They are only there to visit the beautiful and pristine beaches, fly around in a parachute, visit the fake floating water market, go to various water parks and visit the temples, these are all unique to Pattaya and that's the only reason so many single men visit Pattaya.
  19. Best thing you can do is take another booster shot. I'm taking my second booster shot at the local hospital on Thursday. I did the two original Pfizer shots and then a Moderna booster. Wonder what they will give me this time? The US still today have about 300 deaths/day from Coronavirus, probably from anti-vaccers.
  20. Sorry for not mentioning my location, central Thailand just north of BKK near Khao yai national park.
  21. I have seen a group of immigration officers loitering around in the nearby local market place lately. Never seen before.
  22. There must be a whole city somewhere in Thailand where all the "driver fled the scene" people lives. It's name must be "Fled".
  23. Totally agree! I saw the video on Thai news several times. I couldn't believe it at first. And also, the guy just stepped out onto the road right in front of a speeding vehicle which clearly had no intention of stopping. If it was me I would wait until all vehicles had stopped before even attempting to step out onto the road.
