  1. All so very sad but as we all know, such a crime is far from exclusive to Thailand.
  2. 80 million baht cash is a pee pot full of money. = $2,381,201 USD = $3,184,744 Canadian = 1,884,747 Pound Sterling Not even to mention the gold bars or the other big amounts listed. Some monks were planning a very comfortable retirement using OPM (Other People's Money).
  3. Is that when Adam said to Eve, "Whoa, stand back Eve, there's no telling how big this thing might get"?
  4. That's why they chose a "natural" spot to indulge.
  5. And no chance of more of what was going on in the "repeatedly" recorded video.
  6. Maybe that was part of the purpose of the re-enactment, an opportunity to learn more details about the missing girl.
  7. I see in the video that the car that diligently swerved to miss the huge falling object stopped shortly after. Perhaps they wanted to inspect their car for damage. Personally, I'd be inclined to get the heck away from under the elevated highway.
  8. Wow, did you miss your morning coffee? I was referring to this statement, "Big Brother can follow all of your transactions and if you are naughty they will restrict you to 1km radius around your house for your spendings ???? ???? ????". But perhaps you didn't read that far. "Defamatory" ? "Pink glasses"? Have a great day.
  9. I'd be guessing that he is referring to the Chinese buying condos in Vancouver, driving the price up but leaving them empty. Then the condo unit falls into disrepair. But we'll see what he has to say.
  10. Either "within their power" and I would suspect outside of their power as well.
  11. During summers in Canada, my dog swims at the beach just about daily. A huge number of the park goers are Muslim, others (religion unknown) from the Middle East, South Asia etc. . The odd one shoots me a dirty look. But many ask if they, or their children, can pet my dog. "Yes, of course". Some even have their own dog. Seen here sporting one of my favourite caps.
  12. Transam might object to that. Too close for comfort.
  13. Just yesterday I read an article about a Chinese Trade Fair. Exhibitors were commenting about orders being down as a result of world economic problems. They spoke of cancelled plans to expand and improve, reduced hours for staff. That said, yes, less Chinese will be travelling.
  14. Whatever floats your boat !
  15. "she suggested that Jarae’s loud speaking might have been misinterpreted as anger directed towards them." Geez, thank goodness I am soft spoken. LOL
  16. "Decrepit", just like some of the old fogeys in the current ruling party. Hull cracking and sinking is inevitable.
  17. If it wasn't an election year, he wouldn't join in.
  18. I guess the dog needs more practice. Mine caught on quick.
  19. It totally behooves me as to how people all around the world keep getting caught in these scams. 5,269 cases, 312.5 million baht. That's a huge number of suckers.
  20. What an idiot. He ruined many lives with his greed, plus his own elder years. Karma?
  21. Any move away from China is good news in my eyes.
  22. Looking at Nate, confirms my life-long policy of never forcing a smile. I'd rather look glum than to force a smile and look like a monkey (sorry monkeys).
  23. I know some Thai minivans are larger and configured differently but I was basing it on standard North American vans, two buckets at front and two 3X rear seats = 8. I can feel my brakes diminish with just a 500 pound load in the back. Steering can be affected too.
  24. 19 persons in what I assume was an 8 passenger minivan. Unquestionably, the braking capability was grossly diminished.
