The Old Bull

They could give Lao Khow away free, tourists would not drink it. Just a few of us old timers and Thai villagers. I can handle it OK.

Sounds like "reefer madness" descendants the next generation.

Cash flow or profit?

I doubt if she forgave the debt , just some of the massive interest payments.

A fellow I know had a couple of bars in Pattaya, told me they were B 3,000 a day to run before you could slip a few batts in your pocket. So if you make B 20 on a bottle of beer that means the first 150 beers don't make you any profit just cover expenses. Don't sound good to me.

I was in Toulon years ago when the US navy came to town. There were a whole bunch of shady ladies showed up on the street corners . I guess they follow the fleet. There were three squads of police marching around ,they would come to attention outside of the bar and the NCO would come in and check it out and away they would go again. One was US navy, one was French navy and one was French police. I was drinking with the two guys that were in charge of lighting up the ships while they were in port. They seemed to be on their own schedule now body paid attention to them.

For cash

Water falls are very dangerous at low water because all the surrounding rocks are super smooth and shiny.Very easy to slip and fall.

Need to do the same as Castro did get rid of them all so there is no chance of their coming back.

The Thai authorities love low hanging fruit. A user buys ten sells five, then the guy that buys five sells three the guy that buys three sells two. Why bother with small players while letting the big ones go free. I guess pinching all these small players boosts the statistics while not catching the big players means they will have work forever.

Because Israel is a state based on religion being anti Israeli is seen as anti semitic. So if anyone criticizes their slaughtering of the Palestinians they are deemed anti semitic.So this is why people are lashing out at Jewish symbols, it's their way of lashing out at Israel. Netanyahu does not want a Palestinian state because he could no longer be able to steal land for new settlements. i

It's not just the planes, it's the terms and conditions that come with them that will make or break the deal.

At least they did not eat him.Good job they weren't pet lions or tigers.

The lads on the garbage truck go through all the garbage and pick out anything they can sell for a few batts. They have a pile of sacks hanging on the truck they store the recyclables in. I think it's their beer and lao khao fund.

We used to swim in a river like that when we were kids. In town there were warning signs and barbed wire to keep people out but by the time it got out into the countryside there was nothing. My mom said she could smell me coming up the driveway and she would run the bathtub. I would have to peel off all my clothes before I was allowed in and go straight into the tub.

No extra coverage, It's about where you live as Canada has no national health service each province or territory controls their own health care programs. I live in a rural area of the Yukon.

Don't see the Yukon or NWT. When they were checking me out for a hip replacement I asked them how long was the wait. I was told you will get your hip when you can't walk down the road anymore. As I don't walk down the road much I did not realise how bad it was. I was heading to my hotel the day before my operation , it was about a one mile walk but I could not do it . Anyway I got the hip replacement and it turned out fine.

My question is how many batts does it have to go up in the store before the farmer gets one batt? They say in Canada if the wheat farmers got 5 cents from every loaf of bread sold they would all be multi millionaires.

Can anybody name a country the US has invaded to impose democracy where they have succeeded ? I know that in Chile and Iran they knocked off the democratically elected leaders because they did not like them and they are prepared to cosy up to devils like the Saudies if there is a dollar to be made. Democracy is not serving the USA well with a choice between a senile encumbant and a crook.

Lions are wild animals ,they look cute when they are small but when they grow up they can eat you. Why would you want such a creature, like keeping a poisonous snake or a crocodile, stupid ?

Got in a scrap with some gypsies . There were half a dozen of them and ten of us . I was last of our side out of the pub door with four of them thumping on me. I was lucky that it was not one or two as being four none of them could get a good punch in. Anyway I saw in the paper later that the same lot had got into a fight with a platoon of soldiers and given them a licking. They were charged and when they went to court the judge told the soldiers that they should be ashamed to call themselves British soldiers if they couldn't handle this scruffy crew of gypsies and threw the case out.

Weed puts people to sleep booze makes them fight.

The Canadian health service is fine . Don't believe the propagander put out by US insurance companies. I can't see how having a for profit company between the doctor and his patient can be better. I had a hip replacement ,didn't cost a dime. If I need a doctors appointment I just give them a call "what day would you like to come in?" "morning or afternoon?" no problem and free again. Also I am over 65 so all my pills are free.

About a year ago I put on 20lbs ,eat the same food as I have eaten all my life ,no more no less. When I asked the doctor he said my metabolism had slowed down due to aging. Was not burning up the calories any more so it was going to fat. Another problem is my old lady keeps shoving food in front of me.

In my younger days got a dose of crabs. I bought a can of RAID. The girl at the store counter could not understand why I was buying RAID in January but the store manager walked by and he had a wicked grin ,he knew what was going on. I sprayed it on and my nuts were on fire so I filled the bathtub and jumped in. All the nasties floated up and I drained the tub never to see them again.Maybe that would work for you?
