I think the issue is a little broader than that because they're not afraid of trump per se, they are afraid of the numbskulls and poorly educated who have joined others down the rabbit hole and who may, just may find another bunch of numb nuts who would vote for the lying clown, gullible as they are. It's as much about the gullibility of the MAGA crowd as anything else, and so sad that it has come down to this.

Lol.........I think this poster is serious!!!!

Norfloxacin, like other fluoroquinolones in that class can cause tendon problems, I know this through experience. And as this poster says, there is a "black box warning" in the US for the use of this particular antibiotic. The best bet is to get along to a clinic/hospital for them to take a sample and analyse and culture whatever is found in it, then the correct antibiotic can be prescribed. Otherwise you are leaving yourself open to C Difficile...........Most cases of C. diff occur when you've been taking antibiotics or not long after you've finished taking antibiotics. There are other risk factors: Being 65 or older.

The Official Manchester United Thread

Luckily enough my fear didn't become a fact, although Liverpool had the vast majority of possession. Phew!! But it still doesn't change the underlying problems that United have. -
Trump declares ‘the American Dream is dead’ in latest attack on Biden
xylophone replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
And the American Dream ended when poorly educated voters elected a dumb, narcissistic, crooked and persistent liar to be president of what was supposed to be the greatest nation in the world – – but in doing this, they proved that they no longer great, but are capable of stuffing things up as the best of them. So sad for America that this dumb orange clown is even given the time of day.- 29 replies

The Official Manchester United Thread
xylophone replied to Jonathan Fairfield's topic in Football forum
Hmmm.........I fear that United will get a hammering tonight, and luckily enough friend of mine here who is a Liverpool supporter doesn't phone me up to rub it in! Thinking about United, it's not just ETH who is the problem, although IMO he seems to have the personality of a pickled squid, because thinking back over all of the previous managers, there really hasn't been a quality one amongst them except maybe David Moyes, and OGS was a disaster. If you consider the above plus the poor signings they have made over the few years, you will realise that there was no plan in place to be able to build a team which could challenge for trophies, and no one with any sense/capabilities to recognise talent when they saw it, or for that matter, and importantly, how they could mould these players into a cohesive unit. A shambles I'm afraid. -
US House votes to authorise Biden impeachment inquiry

Let's hope that's the way it plays out Candide......so they come up with nothing and some sanity prevails. -

Phat Kaphrao ranked third best dish in the world by Taste Atlas
xylophone replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I've had some beautiful farmed venison in New Zealand, and foie gras in France, with probably the best steak I've ever had being in a restaurant in St Petersburg, USA. I do like Thai food, and occasionally cook it, and I do like the flavours and the taste of chili in it – – as for anything to do with British food, well maybe my taste buds were ruined by my mother's efforts, which were nothing short of awful/disastrous hence the reason I haven't eaten it in years. As someone else has said, "it is all subjective" because people's palates are different and whereas some folks like spicy food, others don't and so on....... -
I hope all goes well for you John.

US House votes to authorise Biden impeachment inquiry
xylophone replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
So looking at the above, it would seem that although the GOP are wetting themselves in anticipation of a successful impeachment, there is a long way to go yet, and as it stands today "they have achieved a vote to authorise an enquiry, which is not the same as voting for impeachment". So they have the go ahead for a fishing expedition only!!! How will this play out, nobody knows, apart from the fact that the rest of the world must be laughing at this charade and at the fact that there are still people supporting the habitual liar and Cockwomble, trump. What a mess US politics is in. -
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful................The best I have ever seen, thank you @Walker88

Thanks Jai Dee and I will investigate that wine at Wine Connection here in Patong, because it's many years since I've actually been to Hua Hin.

I've had more than my fair share of Aussie wine over the years, and a couple of decades ago, or so, an American wine critic called Robert Parker sampled some of the Australian wines with high alcohol content and thought they were brilliant, and gave them great write-ups, and then the high alcohol wines became de rigueur (unfortunately) and along with their tannins can cause headaches. I've had a few 15% ABV Aussie Reds, and they can be a bit harsh on the brain cells, especially as they sometimes can be so delicious/tempting, that one puts away more than one should!!! The everyday drinking Aussie Reds with slightly lower alcohol come from south-east Australia from the Riverland area and this is the main area for the cask wine and cheap drinking plonk, although they can produce some fairly good wines, and "19 Crimes" comes from this area I believe. Many wines mentioned on here already are actually "fruit wines" and that's because they are mixed with fruit juice or fruit, and have to be labelled like this, although Montclair seem to get away with missing this off of their casks and bottles. A basic rule of thumb would suggest that anything below 450 baht a bottle is suspect with regards to fruit wine and someone mentioned a Rhône wine at a good price, which began with the letter "B", however unfortunately that wine is also mixed with fruit juice. If you are drinking wine for the alcohol buzz, then the quality of it matters not, so fruit wine/cask wine/2 L bottles/cooking wine will do, however if one wants to really savour and search the wine for the taste of "blackcurrants, blackberries, black fruits, plums and so on" then one has to pay for the privilege, and that's why I've started moving up the table as regards price on red wine, because I'm getting older and need to spend a bit more on myself.

Sorry to ask again, but what is the name of the shop?? I believe that Bluport is the name of the shopping mall.

Well the interviewer asked what was necessary to end the war and the Israeli spokesperson told them. Hatred or not, the solution is there for all to see, plain and simple, and if Hamas do not agree to surrendering, then they will reap the catastrophic results of the war they started and the death and misery that they have brought upon the Palestinians. That is the way forward irrespective of the degree of hatred between the two nations, that being the case, I sincerely hope that Hamas are wiped out completely and if the poor Palestinians suffer whilst this is being undertaken, then they should look to Hamas to blame, not a country which was attacked by the terrorists. I have said what I believe is a solution.

It has to stop asap There was an Israeli/government/military spokesman last night on BBC World News, and he was asked about the carnage, and a possible ceasefire or an end to it all, and I liked his reply: – "the war can stop now, after all it was not started by Israel, all Hamas has to do is to surrender and give up their weapons, and it will all be over". Simple really and I fully support his viewpoint.
