  1. Why would the mother have the option to drop the charges? She was not the one that was raped.
  2. Any floor cracking?
  3. Beautiful work. Congratulations.
  4. Lucky it was only 15 metres lots of places on that road could have been 150 metres.
  5. There are loads in my yard near Udon Thani. There are a million of them that congregate on the powerlines near Tesco Ban Hansa every night.
  6. The only thing agree with Trump is about , your body is like an engine, so many revs and it wears out. Why waste it in the gym.
  7. I have a yellow house book and a pink card maybe that is the key. Not sure about the picture maybe the machine that spits out the licences also takes the picture. I got a medical but they weren't interested in it. For the previous medical I just paid the girl at the clinic and she reached under the counter took out a presigned paper and added my name.
  8. When I got my last licence in Udon Thani did not have to wait. After the movie and eye test they usher you into a room and you sit next to the machine spitting out licences. When yours comes out they hand t to you.
  9. A ridiculous idea . How can it work in rural areas where there are no shops using digital payment within four kilometers? Also a lot of people registered in village house books work away, how would you deal with them?
  10. It would be nice to drive to Vientiane for supper, it's only thirty miles away without standing in line pay for a visa that eats up a page of your passport. It will never happen, too many government drones protecting their empires.
  11. Last time that I was there went swimming off a dive boat moored in the bay but never landed on the beach.
  12. It's all about the insurance. There wouldn't be anyone making life insurance on a young person as they may not live long enough to collect. Same with someone real old unless there is already insurance in place. My brother in law was a real wild man so there were lots of policies out on him. People collected B200,000 or B300,000 and kicked in 20 or 30 thousand for the party. It went on for five days and they killed two beef and licked up many gallons of booze.
  13. Wow, the rich Jews sure have a lot of clout in Washington, obviously more than the rich Ukrainians.
  14. If I was from any visible minority I would consider it an insult to be told that I was not being admitted on merit but by some woke political motive. Also I would be afraid that distrust would follow me, as I would continually have to prove that I was capable and not just the result of some quota.I remember when a lot of women especially in government were being promoted to managerial positions. People would ask is she a real manager or an affirmative action manager.
  15. Send him to North Korea the little fat guy could arrange "death by dogs" it's one of his favourites.
  16. Cantilevers are nasty even when done right. A couple of posts could have prevented this and would not have looked out of place.
  17. The current ban seems to only apply to the expensive stuff sold in the bigger stores. You can get a bottle of Lao Khow from any village shop any time.
  18. Didn't mention if he was wearing a helmet?
  19. Busses are underpowered , it takes them a long time to get up to speed so when they do they do not want to slow down.
  20. If you are a cheap charlie and hire a farmer instead of a professional to save a few batt don't expect a perfect job.
  21. The Welsh have a saying, when translated , says the male donkey will go to the female donkey.
  22. If a vehicle is puking out black smoke, it should be shut off and towed to a facility for repair before it is allowed to start up again. I can't see this happening so the pollution will go on. Same should apply to motorcycles with no tail lights on rural roads. People should value their life more than the price of a light bulb.
  23. The reason they went after Taksin was not because he slipped a few dollars in his pocket, they all do that, it was because he awakened the masses letting them know they could have a say in ruling the country. They need to get control of the "privy council" that is the key to any move forward.
  24. I was scrounging washing machine parts on the town dump when some town official came along. He saw me but said nothing just put a chain across the gate and put a lock on it. However I had my bolt cutters so ended up with 20' of 3/8" chain and left town.
  25. About twenty years ago drove for two days to go see the panda. The panda was sleeping in its air conditioned facility, woke up took a dump and went back to sleep.On the way home got appendicitis and had to have an appendectomy. Not the best trip I have taken.
