  1. except for those found guilty of crimes they never commited. It happens far more often than we think.
  2. vinegar should not be used for all jellyfish stings. Should you apply vinegar to all jellyfish stings? | Better Homes and Gardens (bhg.com.au)
  3. nor sor 3 kor is a legal title that can be bought or sold legally. However it is not a full chanote. The land has not been surveyed by the land department. So the boundries are not certain. It is possible to ask the land department to survey it and upgrade it to a regular chanote.
  4. And what ever happened to Pareena with her illegal land in Ratchaburi too?
  5. Perhaps you should have just handed them the form and passport with 90 receipt and seen what happened first.
  6. I had a capitalone 360 account. The debit card is good except they don't refund the fee Thai ATM's charge. But having to use an American address and phone number was a problem. Anyway. If you can afford to open a Schwab one international account the debit card is even better besides no fees they also refund most fees charged by other ATMs. So basically you get your money for free. You can also wire money through them for free(it shows a $15 fee but they refund that instantly too). Another big advantage is you can use your Thai address and phone number. No need to maintain another one. However to open an account you must be able to deposit $25,000 or $25,000 worth of stocks transfered from another broker.
  7. I bought some candy canes on amazon to send here for my wife. She was jonesing for some non-peppermint ones. They sent it with UPS. When it arrived in Thailand I recieved an email from someone in UPS that demanded I mail them my passport and pay additional fees to get the candy canes. I told them I would never mail them my passport and that any import fees had been paid in advance. (ADD: They also told me they could not return them either.) Never did get the candy canes. Fortunately amazon did refund my money after I sent them all the emails between me and UPS. I also contacted UPS main office in the US and they said they would investigate but never heard anything back from them either. I had ordered some other candy canes at the same time. They were mailed through the post office. They showed up with no problem.
  8. To be safer don't activate the card until after it arrives. I used the post office to send before with no problem but that was serveral years ago.
  9. As a temporary aid Homepro and other stores sell products to pour in the toilets that are supposed to help break down the waste. I am not sure how effective they are though. The same stuff is also sold as a soil conditioner at fertilizer stores.
  10. Reading the original article the owner was asking for 1,000,000 baht. The court reducted it to 70,000 baht. It also says the verdict is not final and can be appealed. The dogs owner might not end up with anything or even a loss after her attorney fees.
  11. Well if this becomes the norm probably lots of vets will stop doing procedures. Any time surgery is performed there are risks associated with it.
  12. I have seen them higher than 120 baht. Specially for sets. I once saw single ticket prices of 150 baht because they were numbers lots of people wanted to buy for that draw.
  13. At this point I would wait 6 months between shots. Hopefully Moderna and Pfiser will be coming out with updated versions that work better on the new variants.
  14. Actually the guy said he didn't stab him. He held the knife out and the other guy ran into it. However the police say that his story does not match up with the video they have.
  15. Thailand will be ready for the next generation. In the next generation.
  16. The local loonies walk around all the time without masks and no one says anything. So just have a look on your face like you are crazy. But really Thai people are more used to wearing masks normally. Before it was either for pollution or because they were sick. Of course as soon as you go to a restaurant everyone takes their masks off.
  17. It has become much more difficult to find tickets being sold for 80 baht.
  18. I'm sure it had nothing to do with the construction quality on those buildings shown.
  19. Even if they did ok it how many would show up?
  20. They have been widening the road from Ratchaburi to Chombueng, where I live, a section at a time each year. The even sillier thing is they have also been putting in street lights. They put them in the year before they are going to widen that section. Then the next year they have to be moved back for the widening.
