excuse me while I dig up my "translate nonsense to sense" dictionary app. Wait, maybe I need the "translate from gibberish" one. -
Visa Overstay Leads to Arrest of Maldivian East Coast Gang
Jonathan Swift replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Anyone with any experience in law enforcement has known enough of criminals to pick up on cues based on their behavior. Since they didn't describe it in detail you don't know one way or the other, do you? Anything is possible. But I agree that it is possible they were tipped off. -

Thai doctor vows to create "Hitler Room" to gas hospital smokers
Jonathan Swift replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
So you're a self centered inconsiderate malicious wiseɑss. Tell me where and when you're next there and I will show up and personally annoy you. Let's see, lighting up pack after pack of matches seems like it would work. When was the last time you were treated there? I've seen a range of specialists from ear nose and throat, to urologists, wound specialists, vascular surgeon, oncologist, dermatologist, and a new primary care, all within 1 to 4 weeks out from my initial request. I mean the US sucks in a lot of ways, but you are wrong. What you describe happens to some people but not everyone. You have to take charge and make the necessary phone calls, but usually any direct referral is processed right away. -
Thai doctor vows to create "Hitler Room" to gas hospital smokers

The underlying reason is the billions and billions of dollars that are made by the tobacco industry, which through the tobacco lobbies finds its way into the pockets of the politicians who are supposed to represent us and who refuse to pass any restrictive legislation. -
Thai doctor vows to create "Hitler Room" to gas hospital smokers

Good. Cigarette smokers who let their smoke stink up the air that other people have to breathe are self centered pigs. Secondhand smoke is a proven risk to non smokers. And THIS IS A HOSPITAL! Smoking in or near a hospital is a particularly heinous type of calloused indifference. So you smokers have an addiction and I sympathize. But be considerate and responsible and take it where you don't bother anyone. Are heroin addicts allowed to shoot up in public and splatter their blood all over others? Are they allowed to sit at a bar or a table or stand outside a hospital and shoot up? Why not? The only reason cigarettes are still legal is the amount of money that is made by ultra rich megacorporations and the money they line the pockets of politicians with while knowing they are making people get sick and die. Cigarette pigs deserve to be locked in a small room and quarantined with their disgusting habit. I mean, you could switch to vaping which will still kill you but at least it won't stink. Now a humorous comparison - suppose someone with extreme flatulence sat down at your dinner table and farted silently and continuously throughout the meal? Nothing wrong with it except that it is sickening, offensive, and inconsiderate. Just like cigarette pigs. Oink. -
Yeah, I thought of that. I can scan and modify documents, I'm pretty good at it, but I won't need to worry because all I get is social security which is not taxed. I can show a confirmation letter from Social Security as well as the deposits in my bank account if they want to see it. The way things are going I imagine they are going to see a lot of Social Security letters. But I don't claim to be an expert, I am speculating.

I don't know what CRS means, but I don't see how they can get our bank or income information. That kind of thing is privacy protected. The only option is to require income and bank statements. On my mac it's pretty easy to chage numbers and text on a scanned document. The preview app will do it, a little cut and paste and adding some text, or you can use photoshop. I don't know about PC, but I will guess that they have something similar.

The elephant in the room is how are they supposed to know how much we make and how much we have in the bank? they can't get those records. All accounting and investment funds are private and password protected. Before that, how are they even going to know where to look? I don't think this will fly. Do they think we're going to voluntarily give them our income and bank information? They would have to sue us in US court, but they would have no legitimate cause of action.

Must Read Large-Scale Search Underway for Missing Belgian Tourist
Jonathan Swift replied to webfact's topic in Chiang Mai News
I've been to that fall many times, and seen a lot of young people climbing precariously amongst the rocks. Wonder if any weed was involved? That would be just enough to impair your sense of spatial judgment and balance. One slip, one fall, one bang of the head, one moment of misjudgment and it's over. -

AWWWW - so terribly sad, a young person who might not have been as careful as one needed to be, but we are all like that when we are young. I hope she at least had a good life up to the end. -

"Big Boobs Barbershop" Draws Crowds with Expert Haircuts in Khon Kaen
Jonathan Swift replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
Well between that, "Catholic Nun Barbershop", and "Ugly Fat Girl Barbershop" this name was the winner. And how do you know she's not a decent girl who just had a brilliant idea to market her shop? Where do you get your moral authority to presume to judge anyway? There are plenty of beautiful Thai girls who don't sell sex. So as far as decency goes, you're the one with the dirty and prejudiced mind. I hope your life has a happy ending. Cheers.
