The father of a bright young son went to a wise friend for advice as to what profession the youth should be fitted for. The sage was brusque. "Let the boy choose for himself," he said. "But," protested the father, "he's too young." "Well," responded the wise man, "put him in a room alone with a book on theology, an apple, a knife, and some small change, and see what he makes of it. If he chooses the book, make a minister of him, if he takes the knife, make him a surgeon; if the apple, he will make a farmer, and if he chooses the money a banker." Much relieved, the father went away, but returned in a few days complaining the plan hadn't worked at all. "Why not?" demanded the wise man. "What did he do?" "When I went in," said the father, "he was sitting on the book, with the knife in one hand and the money in his pocket, and eating the apple." "Ah!" said the sage, "that's easy. The boy is a natural born lawyer." -

Did you hear about the cannibal who would only use a group of businessmen to make a batch of chili? He insisted on using only seasoned professionals. -

As I said earlier I would love to know how (not what was discussed - not interested) a two posters can have both a written and verbal discussion on AN with a third party in Thai and certify the competency of the other party without disclosing how it happened and what their competency to make that statement is? -

Why would two native English speakers communicate with each other on an English language only forum (outside Thai parts) in both written and spoken Thai? Moderator or not! -

NATO leaders say Ukraine WILL join NATO.
scottiejohn replied to thaibeachlovers's topic in The War in Ukraine
I think you will find that Ukraine was trying to join NATO as a barrier to stop Russia/Putin from invading them, not NATO wanting to expand in order to let them invade Russia. NATO is a defensive treaty/organisation and not a war mongering Putin Dictated state!! -

I thought you were taking the proverbial you know what! In Thailand a Physical surgical realignment or surgical procedure to change your sex does not at the present time lead to a change of your sex on your Thai ID Card! If your first ID card says MR Somchai and you go through the full surgical process (after full a psychiatrist assessment etc and ask for a new ID with your new female long hair etc it will still say "Mr Somchai"! That was the point I was trying to make. I have no axe to grind on this subject. (see below) My only complaint, as I first stated, was the abysmal reporting in the OP! My knowledge on this subject re ID cards comes from a transgender member on my Thai partner's side who has recently after many years of counselling etc undergone a full medical/surgical transition from male to female! We now refer to her as "her" but still under the same Thai nickname!
