Makes no sense that this jet can, apparently, be ready for Trump to use fairly quickly while Boeing's jets, which they have been working on for years, are still not ready due to all the design changes Boeing has been forced to make and all the requirements demanded of them, such as to withstand a nuclear blast, etc. I'm curious what exactly will be done with the Qatar jet, other than a paint job. And, if it is ok for the Prez to fly on this jet, why are we spending billions of tax payer dollars on the very complex Boeing jets?

Amazing the driver wasn't killed.

Compensate the landlord, do some jail time to learn her lesson, then blacklist and deport her.

It's still under warranty, Make the builder pay for the repairs.

Pity Trump is not actually "Former President Trump" at this time.

Trump is always referred to as "Former President Trump"--not just in this thread. A good tip-off the story was written by a clueless AU program. (Artificial Unintelligence)

This is not a landmark anything.

Once again, way too small fine. 2000 baht is a joke. Make it 20,000 and they might think twice.

The money would be much better spent targeted at improving tourist spots all over Thailand that are in need of upgrading in some places and maintenance in others that has been neglected.

Yes, that's what my spouse and I have.

Well, that succinctly sums up the state of things.

As others have said, who???

I'm not a fan but I think she's welcome to run in 2028 and compete with other Dem candidates during the primary season. Let the voters decide if they want her to be the candidate again, once they get a second look. I hope by 2028 some better candidates will emerge.

That's one of the reasons my spouse and I don't like to rent--the horrible furniture lots of rentals come with, not to mention a too small tv, small refrigerator, likely non-induction cooktop, uncomfortable mattress, bad art work, if there is any at all, etc. And, the worse part, having to tiptoe around all the lousy stuff hoping you don't, god forbid, break or damage something. Life is short and we much prefer creating our own spaces, with all our own stuff. But, we do realize that many prefer renting and it's whatever works best for them.

Good--in that criminals, of any nationality, are being caught. Good also that the Belgium running amok was deported.

Apparently he is not getting enough publicity already as President so out comes wacky proposal after wacky proposal on a daily basis to keep people talking. Utterly ridiculous idea and will never fly, right in line with all the rest.

Good.

Poor Belgium! But at least he's gone from Thailand--which should have been the case after the FRST incident. Zero tolerance--and the word will soon get out.

The best rental we had--when we were still renting condos--was a corporate rental from a Japanese company. The rent was always paid right on time by the corporate office and the tenant, though a bit messy, respected the property and did not damage anything--likely because he wanted to stay in good graces with his company. We are pondering doing a house rental down the road and we would love another corporate rental. I think with rentals you need a very strong and specific rental contract, a big deposit, and the right to inspect the property at periodic intervals, with prior notice.

Yes, they are using glass railings everywhere these days, inside and out. I certainly wouldn't trust leaning on any of them.

Yes, I know. I would get implants rather than dentures because I would not like dentures in my mouth--or having to fool with them. I like fix it and it's done--which is why I got lasik in 2013 and Supersight last year, so I could ditch glasses and contact lenses.

I'm 73 and I would do it if I needed it--teeth are in good shape so far. I don't like the idea of dentures in my mouth. I had Supersight done on my eyes at age 72.

Umm. Jail is suppose to be 'difficult'. That's why its jail.

53% done is nowhere near completion. It's barely over half done--and after all those years. Laughable--also funny, no money for seats. Oh, well.

My post had nothing to do with accepting, or not accepting, election results, and there was no 'complaining' about Trump. To refresh, the point I was making was if you win by such a small margin, whether Dem or Rep, and you don't even reach 50% of the vote, you can't crow that you have a 'mandate'.
