Car 54? The Highway Patrol? Dragnet? Sgt. Preston? The Lone Ranger?

I'm done discussing COVID. For me, it's over, I'm here and no one jabbed me with anything., fortunately. And I know what I know and I've seen the receipts, so to speak. Far be it from me to give anyone health advice. People can do what they want with their own bodies.

Once upon a time, I was sort of considering moving to Florida. One of my friends seemed to think Miami Beach would be fun. South Beach. This was years ago, but even back then, there were warning signs. Obtaining insurance was difficult, especially in some areas, and the condo fees weren't exactly cheap. I guess I dodged a bullet.

So now you know more about it all than RFK, Jr? LOL Maybe you should look into some of what he has uncovered by way of spending his life litigating against the big drug companies. Evidence uncovered, admissions under oath, and so on. Of course, your only intention seems to be spreading misinformation, so I'm sure you won't bother to seek out a few facts.

If you seriously think the NIH isn't part of the scam, then you're the one who needs to open his eyes. Occam's razor. Ever hear of that? Step back and look at the big picture. You remind me of the people who say there's no evidence that vaccines result in autism. And yet when you track the autism rates along side the vaccine frequency, guess what? Let me guess. You'd. say there's "no evidence" of a connection. Go shill somewhere else. No one with a brain is going to buy your nonsense.

First, consider the source. Second, do some research. The NIH is full of it. Just another part of the scam. It really isn't rocket science. Vitamin D is very important to your immune system. That's not even questioned these days. Remember when they asked Dr, Fauci how much Vitamin D he took every day? Remember his reply? As I recall, he said he took 10,000 IU a day. What's the "recommended" daily dose? Between 400-800 IU. For something that does no good, maybe Fauci knows something?

They do it in other cities. Why not Bangkok? Is it really that costly to set up?

Sorry for the late reply. I had one almost finished a while ago and then I had a power outage. One of the very first red flags for me was the fact that the "authorities" dismissed the fact that 80% or more of the people hospitalized for COVID had a Vitamin D deficiency. And yet anyone who knows anything about the immune system knows the importance of Vitamin D and sunshine. Anyway, that was Red Flag number one. Why dismiss, out of hand, the apparent link between Vitamin D and COVID deaths? Back in the early 70s, I took courses in Microbiology and Medical Microbiology from one of the world's experts in the field. I had forgotten 99% of whatever I was supposed to know by the time COVID came along, but for some reason, I distantly remembered the lectures about the importance of Zinc in the process of viral replication. At the time, they weren't quite sure of the mechanism involved, but they knew it was there. Today, we know. Zinc acts as a Vitamin D ionophore. Anyone who doesn't know what that is should look it up. Over time, other red flags appeared. Remember how they went to great lengths to smear Ivermectin as a "horse dewormer"? Or when they silenced the two doctors who were of the opinion that the ventilators used in the ICUs were doing more harm than good? I could go on all day, but it soon became obvious: the public was being lied to. Why, I wasn't sure, but I was sure I'd pass on their jabs. Couple all that with the fact that truthful information was being deleted from Twitter almost as soon as it was posted and I knew. I knew it was a scam. Whatever they were doing, they could count me out.

I'm not sure I'd call great wine "booze." It can be Nirvana from the first sip.

The "experts" are full of it. People die about once a second in this world. And I'm sure if the US medical authorities are up to their old tricks, they paste the "COVID" death label on everyone they can possibly round up. Mostly old people with multiple co-morbidities. But hey, the hospitals get extra money every time that happens, right? Nothing to see here. Move along.

I'm not sure what you mean here. My Nirvana means just that. Have you v=never been there?

Was the race in Monaco the start of the season for F1? Yesterday, there was that race, and the Indy 500, both on the same day. The Indy 500 was sort of disappointing. Once upon a time, they had Formula 1 at Indy, but that ended on a sour note. Maybe they'll try again sometime. .

Well, I would never drink that much in one sitting. But you're probably right, sort of. For anyone who has never had first rate wine: it can be nirvana. A little trip to heaven. Unless you've been there, you haven't done that.

A advocate of "all-in." Mostly, no, but sometimes, there's simply no real risk. Let me give you a simplified example. You're in a math class for idiots.The teacher puts an equation up on the board. 2 + 2 = X. And yet the class doesn't recognize the answer that's absolutely correct. Going all in on X = 4 would be considered "risky." And so they hedge their bets. They diversify. Some chose X = 4,, along with a bunch of other answers, just to be safe. As for Bitcoin? I have some I bought in 2017, along with a few other cryptos. And I still have it. But I don't trust it. Where did it come from? And unless I know that, I know nothing for sure. The only time I have an all-in mentality is when I know the answer.

What do you get for 5000 baht? I'd pay that, if the wine was exceptional. Why not post some examples? In reality, among wine enthusiasts, 5000 baht isn't very much at all. The cheap good stuff probably starts around 15,000 baht and goes up from there.

Steak and eggs and a mandarin orange. And some coffee.

If this is the policy that supposedly results in no taxes on wine priced at less than 1000 baht, I'm afraid I still see wines that cost much more than I would expect. For example, I'm sitting here now sipping on some wine from Chile. 999 baht in Thailand. It's not bad, but why so expensive, if there are no taxes?

I've been investing since 1974, however many years ago that was. And I retired almost twenty years ago. Anyway, sometimes you absolutely know what's going to happen, you just don't know when. And you absolutely know when there's no risk, long term. Those situations don't arise often. Almost never. But when they do? Almost a sure thing. I say "almost," because there's always the chance of some crazy extra-market event that could upset the apple cart, so to speak. An asteroid slamming into earth. A global thermonuclear war. And if anything like that were to happen? Oh well, you tried, and there wouldn't be stock portfolios to worry about, in any event.

When I first moved to Thailand in 2006, I used the affidavit from the US Embassy. That worked, although immigration at the time also wanted to see at least some money in a Thai bank account. My income at the time was easy to prove, if anyone had bothered to look. Way more than enough, just from a government pension. The embassy could have easily logged online and looked. On the other hand, some people's situation isn't so simple. They may have rental properties, investment portfolios, and so on. It can be a convoluted mess. One time I had a job where I had to verify people's income. A simple affidavit wouldn't do it, and I had to sort through all sorts of junk to figure out what was what. I can see where an Embassy wouldn't want to routinely wade Ito that kind of mess. Still, if an income can be easily verified online, why shouldn't they do that? It takes two minutes. Income letters for anyone with easily verified information, otherwise, no.

Didn't Ukraine send a fleet of drones to attack Putin's helicopter? I'd be mad, too. However it happens, the sooner this war ends, the better, preferably without additional US involvement. Perhaps Putin can bring Zelenskyy to his senses? Trump is doing the wrong thing here, by calling Putin crazy. Threatening new sanctions? Absolutely the wrong thing to do.

Unless it pans out. Anything can happen over the short to intermediate term, but if you're in the right thing, it's hard to lose, long term. Is it gambling? Maybe. What about card counting in Blackjack? You're in a casino and you appear to be gambling, but maybe not so much.

Whatever is going on, I'm sure it's not just random noise. It's something more than particle physics and random occurrences, somehow morphing into life by way of evolution. Our current universe may be old, but it's not that old.

Have you been paying attention? Do a search on "time travel" or "past lives." People who pop up seemingly out of nowhere, and yet come from the past, or the future. Or, people who can recall intricate details of past lives, lives lived in another place or another time. And the details check out.

Read a book by James P. Carse called "Finite and Infinite Games." Echoes of Eastern philosophers, such as Alan Watts. I was fortunate enough to have the guy for a teacher, back in the day. He's dead now. I think you can see some of his lectures on YouTube.

Does everyone know who Kurt Vonnegut is? He wrote a novel called "Cat's Cradle." I'm not sure of the exact quote, but the basic premise of it is that human beings are just mud, up walking around and observing the universe. Observing God's creation. It makes sense, when you think about it.
