With nine goals, who scored the most goals in a single European Championship tournament?

Michel Platini

... a midfielder! France's forwards in 1984, such as Rocheteau, Bellone and Stopyra, were decent but unexceptional. It wasn't until later in the 80s that Jean-Pierre Papin broke through: JPP is the most spectacular and confident goal scorer I've ever seen. He lit up that Olympique Marseille team.

What is the only team in the top 4 divisions in either England or Scotland with a 'J' in its name?

West Brom, under Ron Atkinson.

Of course I am apparently likened to a trolling drunken poster or Leslie Nielsen as a detective, so just so that those of you can continue in your beliefs as smart <deleted> a little education for those who would like facts and where to find them.  Of course the majority of this is for the State Side and Canada.

Cocaine

Cocaine is most commonly snorted, but crack-cocaine can also be smoked or injected. This recreational drug is highly addictive.

• The average cost of cocaine ranges from $100-120 per gram.
• A typical “line” of cocaine is 50 milligrams, yielding 20 uses from a single gram.
• The effects of cocaine last approximately 30 minutes.
• For a heavy user, cocaine addiction can cost over $120 per day.

 

But then what do I know.....go look yourself folks.  I could provide you with what DEA used for prices....

The DEA also has a useful page about the most commonly abused drugs. This is just another reference that shows what the illicit drugs are and how they are used. We also have a page on street drugs that you may find helpful.

And finally, here is a PDF file that is a 2009 street drug price list from the greater Toronto area in Canada. The numbers may be different in your area depending upon where you live.

Below is a list of the DEA drug seizures.

My dear friend, copying and pasting 10-year-old information from a website doesn't make you a top Miami Vice cop.

It's unoriginal, trite and plagiarism. Fail!

The Police Academy rejects your application.

1. Tattoos

2. Thug hairdo

3. Shirtless

4. Idiot military trousers

5. Teaches people how to beat up others

6. Lives in Pattaya

7. Ignores curfew laws

8. Speeding and resisting arrest

9. Refuses to give his name & nationality to the police

10. Cretinism

Lock up, whip and deport this filth.

Racist

It all ends with the final sequel:

If you take this social pressure to support family and relatives and conclude your wife doesn't love you as much, you're mistaken. It's also the the Asian group think versus western individualism.

She knew she wouldn't jeopardize the relationship by taking out the 100 k without your consent. So she can have the cake and eat it too.

If you have a couple of mil in one account you could use the excuse that the bank's insurance level per account and bank is actually just 1 million, which happens to be true for most banks.

So it's wise to arrange so each book bank is not more than 1 million anyway. Plus for migration and/or if you ever want to incorporate a company (need around 2 million) its always wise to keep the money in your name for those reasons too.

 

But I feel ya, At one stage I had a bag of 40 or 50 Megadeath and similar t-shirts I kept for some reason sitting in my Mrs and my house.

One day while I was away my wife generously gave the whole bag of t-shirts away to her sister to donate to random peeps or for selling at local markets or anything. She didn't even tell me and I didn't realize until 6 months later.  Trust me, I did not approve of this maneuver!

 

But to avoid her taking the shirt off your back like me, keep your savings separate!

 

 

 

If you store a pile of T-shirts in a bag for months and never wear them, then they can't be of much value to you. Better to distribute them to the peasants.

If, on the other hand, they were cool Motley Crue, Poison, or Ratt T-shirts, not atrocious Megadeth, then I would commiserate.

If you have trouble relaxing, then try marijuana  some meditation or go jogging around the island. Do you have a girlfriend there?

Dude, this story was almost 15 years ago. Let it rest. The AIDS pervert is dead.

Always pleasant to have a friendly aimless chat over a 5 year old topic.

The poor German fella's probably dead by now and the two Thai culprits ..... well, innocent because the Burmese must have done it.

we used to live in TH because we have no where to go and we love it a lot ( Vietnam is impossible for me to live, she can't go Europe).

Nowhere to go? That's only for poor people and refugees.

What's so bad about living in Vietnam?

If you're as fabulously rich as you claim, why are flights from Seam Reap too expensive for you?

If Phnom Penh won't give you a visa, then try your luck in Penang or Vientiane. Or continue enjoying life in Vietnam - a nice place to live.

Yes it is.Duh.

And I'm asking people to avoid explicit political debate between each other on this thread.

If you don't have an on topic Pattaya baht bus anecdote to post about it would really be helpful to not post at all.

Because that's why this thread exists.

If nobody has any such on topic anecdotes to post, then the thread dies a natural death.

That's fine.

What I so strongly objected to before was it being murdered.

Promise you won't keep murdering it with your political rants? ????

Pattaya Baht buses ... Gotta love the angry drunks and lowlifes that have washed up in Pattaya, stuck riding the cheap public transport.

My name is in the blue book on page 18, I do not have PR status

At least they phonetically wrote your name, middle name and surname correctly in Thai.

But be careful about exposing your personal info on the internet,
