They make luggage fit a specified physical dimension. They can do the same with people. Have a sample seat sitting at the departure lounge. If someone can't fit in it or they spill over, they must buy two tickets.

I'm on a retirement extension but have sometimes wondered about switching to the marriage extension. But always wondered what would happen if my wife was out of town or country if they decided to visit. Her business has her going to Jakarta and Beijing for three or four days at a time a few times per year. Would hate to draw the black bean while she was gone.

I don't hear anything from him. All the sources say he was British. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/rest-of-world/get-out-of-the-way-overweight-passenger-dragged-off-plane-in-thailand-after-demanding-aisle-seat-flight-delayed-over-an-hour/articleshow/122097787.cms https://www.yahoo.com/news/overweight-passenger-hauled-off-plane-134051860.html https://www.ndtv.com/offbeat/overweight-uk-tourist-dragged-off-from-aircraft-after-emergency-aisle-seat-request-report-8769560 https://nypost.com/2025/06/26/lifestyle/overweight-passenger-hauled-off-plane-over-aisle-seat-demand/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=nypost There was a Daily Mail link, too, but it has gone dead.

Probably because his rotundity was pushing his legs out into seat in front of him.

Couldn't fit his fat butt into the seat and wanted special accommodation. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/asia/passenger-dragged-thai-lion-air-dispute-emergency-exit-change-seats-5206721#:~:text=Indonesia podcasts Wellness-,Passenger dragged off Thai Lion Air flight after row over,change seats was turned down. Meanwhile, the video:

And now that I'm thinking of it they should be made to unload the trucks, pitch their own tents, and maintain the sewage system.

Good. And let them grow their own food and generate their own electricity. They should get fans but no a/c.

It has always had horrible candidates. But now they are winning. And they are set to go on winning because of two things, the cost of housing and debt, in particular student debt. That's what is behind this frenzy for socialism across the country among people below 40 years old. There are solutions, some popular and easy across demographic lines, but the billionaires aren't going to allow the problem to be solved. Both parties' billionaires.

Apparently, the Editor in Chief of Breitbart already has. https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2025/06/24/marlow-endorses-marxist-zohran-mamdani-for-nyc-mayor-says-cuomo-disqualified-over-covid-deaths/

The Conscription Act of 1863 allowed wealthy New Yorkers to pay Irish immigrants to substitute for them (in the substitution pool) instead of fighting in the Civil War. Immigration at some level is always about making the wealthy wealthier, safer, and comfortable at the expense of the workers and middle class.

Between now and the election, Adams needs to coordinate with ICE to run daily sweeps through NYC and clear out the illegals. https://www.thecity.nyc/2025/03/13/how-noncitizens-can-participate-elections-civic-engagement/

Interesting. But what about Curtis Sliwa? This poll says Sliwa is ahead of Adams. One of these two needs to stand down and support the other. A May poll conducted by Emerson College, PIX11 and The Hill showed 10% of registered voters support Adams, compared to 13% who support Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa.

Trump is more likely to be the Anti-Christ than anything else. If you seek his monument, look around you. The cultural flowering of the Age of Trump is represented by the likes of Catturd and Laura Loomer.

By 2035, Trump, Xi, Putin, and a lot of others will probably be dead.

Yes.

I hope for his success.

I remember hearing that LBJ, Nixon, and, of course, Clinton swore like a sailor. But I never remember them doing it in public. It was always behind the scenes. The person holding the presidency should reflect the dignity of the office.

Never when I was in a socially responsible position or speaking before a group of people. The American president needs to conduct himself with at least a little dignity, instead of always sounding like a cheap clod. I even have more respect than Trump does on these AN topics, where I can't ever remember using the word. I think I have used POS but I don't remember for sure. No, I just don't like people in leadership positions behaving with such a gross lack of dignity.

I, Trump. 555

The most likely outcome. Supporters of the Shah have been cut off at the knees. Mullahs will remain in power forever.

The more frightening thought to me is that once they begin implementing this 3.5 percent tax, they will soon start raising rates, as government gets more desperate, and very soon the exemption for citizens will go away. All that is needed is for the camel to get its nose under the tent.

Wise breaks down your charges, noting the exchange rate and transfer fee. If you suddenly start seeing an extra $1000 deducted on a transfer, it will be noticeable.

Aside from SSA, which uses direct deposit into my Bangkok Bank account, the only international transfer service I use is Wise. And several months ago Wise required me to upload an image of my passport. So it seems, Wise, at least, has already verified citizenship.

What I have read says the tax will only apply to non-citizens. Has this changed?

Wonder if part of the condition for the ceasefire is that Iran and Israel nominate Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize. He's campaigning hard for it.
