The same ‘Corporate America’ that was given a $1.3Trillion tax break by Trump. Go figure.

Name a person who walked into a school or college and murdered multiple children who had a prior criminal conviction?

I agree with all but your ‘c’, they are however some of the things that can be done, not all the things that can be done. Once again, I refer you to the issue that is driving calls for gun controls ‘*non crime related mass shoutings’. * refer above for definition already given.

Once again you stray into the territory of obfuscation. Calls for gun controls are not arising from *crime related mass shootings. * Mass shootings related to criminal activity around gang culture, the illegal drug trade and organized crime. Calls for gun controls are arising out of **non-crime relayed mass shootings. ** not related to gang culture the illegal drug trade and organized crime. Quit with your strawman arguments already.

I’m not sure you are in a position to speak for most Americans, your concern is noted.

I wonder how many Americans associate the term ‘up north’ with Yorkshire. I suspect the people running ‘up north news’ have more skin in the game than you. Which begs a rhetorical question, ‘why do you even care?’. Thanks for the look-see.

Still not got over that then.

Why did you ask why Biden chose Harris if you then assert you know his thoughts on the matter. Methinks you only know your own thoughts on the matter and the rest of us have a good idea what those thoughts of yours are.

Tim’s was on the Beach Road the last time I had a beer there. It was always very well run.

Just keep on telling your self that.

Big flashing sign - “Look here, this is where the dirt is”.

Be honest, Sunak was never going to make ‘a tough decision’. He’s delayed and dithered while Sharp continued to damage the BBC, which is of course the reason why Johnson appointed him to the post in the fist place…. Well, that and the ‘bung’. ‘quid quo pro’ as Latin infected Johnson might wish not to put it.

Can we please have claims made by FOX placed in quotes and clearly marked as suspect, co ing as they do from an organization that has been shown by sworn deposition of it’s management to deliberately and habitually lie.

Get him to the Walter Reed, take him there under cover of night, administer the Montreal Cognitive Assessment test and don’t tell the voting public why it was necessary. Then start a campaign of accusing the political opponent of suffering cognitive decline to put everyone off your scent.

Bangkok in the early 90s was a lot of fun, if you could put up with the sulphur laden polluted air. I managed a three month stint, then gave up trying to fight a continually sore throat and serial chest infections. The air in Pattaya was always much cleaner.

I probably need to do another post on Dolf Ryks.

At least we have the memories

While I still have an apartment near Pattaya, I no longer live in the city full time. My visits of late are a couple of months around April and May. It wasn’t always so, for the better part of thirty years starting in the late 80s Pattaya was my home. Those amongst us who remember the late 80s / early 90s will recall there was at that time nowhere near the number and choice of restaurants as there is now. Some places that come to mind are Prom Par Song 1 and 2 at the Sukhumvit end of North Road and South Road respectively. Street Kitchen on Soi 6/1, Fern Farm on Narklua Road, Wandee at Wongamat and Ruam Thai on 2nd Road. Oh and the burger stall alongside the ‘Buddha tree’ on walking street. Some old names still remain, Leng Khee, The Green Tree (used to be in Soi 4), Pan Pan, Nang Nuan. I called at the Green Tree earlier this week for a ‘sundowner’, something that for years was my Friday evening habit, straight from work to the Green Tree for a couple of G&Ts before starting the weekend fun. I’m pleased to say it remains a place where a guy can get a relaxing drink without being bothered by girls looking for other business. In the 80’s and early 90s such places were rare finds. Having finished my ‘sundowners’ at the Green Tree I walked up Soi 1 to discover a piece of the history of Pattaya’s restaurants was no longer in business. Somsak’s is closed. Somsak opened his first restaurant in the early 70s at the entrance to walking street together with a man who became his life long friend ‘Dolf Ryks’. Together they had spotted the market for a ‘real restaurant’ to serve US military on R&R. As Somsak would say, ‘we opened Pattaya’s first restaurant that had table cloths, real crockery and knives and forks that weren’t bent out of shape’. His restaurants were all decorated with pale yellow walls and artwork, paintings by Dolf Ryks. He set the ambience with classical European music, itself unusual anywhere in Thailand at the time. I once asked him about the music, why classical? Somsak replied ‘Over the years he’s tried lots of music, he learned if he plays rock music he gets fights in his restaurant, if he plays classical everything is chilled’. Well Somsak(dee)’s is gone, another chapter of Pattaya history gone too.

A wonderful idea for rich people who can afford to get the best lawyers and take the risk of losing. Not such a good idea for the rest of us.

Yes they can.

I’m chilled, it’s all good news so far.

And the Jury is permitted to come to their own conclusions as to why Trump does not wish to take the stand.

I know your precise meaning. You wish to impugn the system of trial by jury, that has been the foundation of common law justice for centuries. And all because your boy faces Justice.

As I pointed out above, Trump will be given the opportunity to take the stand and give his version of events, under oath.
