Lacessit

Natural laxatives include sweet corn, okra and papaya. It is a good idea to abstain from eating anything with seeds in it ( e.g. tomato ) or whole grain breads for 3 - 4 days prior to the procedure, as they can collect in any diverticulae, and confuse the surgeon operating the camera.

Perhaps your GF should talk to the Phu Yai, he will know neighbors who want work. There is always someone looking for work and money in a rural village.

It may be cheaper to buy an inexpensive small vehicle ( 80,000 - 100,000 baht ) so the relatives have certainty of transport. Presumably there would always be a neighbor to drive it. The obvious solution is to get a taxi; however, that could get very expensive if the taxi driver has to wait around for a long time at the hospital.

A lot of Americans react to the term socialism much like they react to the taste of Vegemite. Which is ironic, given the American military has many socialist features. Australia has had socialist governments on and off for many years, without doing us any harm. In fact, they are the governments most visible in terms of major reforms, whereas conservative governments are dedicated to preservation of the status quo. The most recent conservative government in Australia was also notable for its corruption.

The spelling errors in your post do help me understand why you are a Trump supporter. It would be an interesting social experiment to measure the mean IQ of those Republicans who believe his claim he won, despite losing the popular vote by 7 million votes.

The GOP has had the backbone of a jellyfish ever since 2014, terrified of losing his endorsement. They are now reaping what they sowed. I agree Trump would destroy the GOP if opposed, he takes vindictive to a new level. Running as an independent candidate would give the Democrats a cakewalk. I see a poster is claiming God is on Trump's side, perhaps he is not aware Trump has openly mocked the religious groups supporting him. God help America if he was to get back in.

I would not expect a 50 yo missile to perform as well as one manufactured today to the same specifications. Metals corrode, propellants become unstable, polymers degrade.

Ms Bobb is going to be thrown under a bus, it happens quite a lot with those employed by Trump.

Given the Russian military is scavenging microchips out of washing machines and refrigerators for missile guidance, it's not surprising this would happen.

Don't you mean ex-President Trump, three-time loser?

Gravity is only a theory too, but I can't find anyone willing to test its validity by stepping off a condo balcony 23 floors up.

The coffee is usually lousy as well. Why people patronize Starbucks is beyond me, their product is so weak it needs to go on life support.

You should go for the trifecta, be anti-fluoride as well. I can only agree with the first part of the sentence.

I am trying to imagine what would happen if America lost its marbles, and returned Trump. Given his reputation for vindictiveness, IMO it would make the Nazi Night of the Long Knives look like a genteel tea party.

If I Recall Correctly. This time, I didn't.

I am wondering whether there is any room left for comedians on this thread. I started as a caddie. I mixed with some extremely wealthy people, but somehow none of the riches rubbed off on me.

Exactly how did that happen, or are you blaming the current government for your own choices? My retirement savings are the same as they were two years ago.

IIRC it was the easily led who were involved in the insurrection of January 6. Will you be donating to his campaign? Just once, I'd like to see a Trump supporter on ASEAN put their money where their mouth is.

IIRC the airlines limit power banks to 10,000.

Repeating a belief does not add to its veracity.

Possibly even more so at 18 yo. It's a bit of bigotry/racism that seems to only apply to Thais, the Chinese and Indians don't get the same lens applied. My son went through university about 30 years ago. At the time, he estimated about one-third of the female students were selling sex to help make ends meet. The immigration lawyer cost me $1100 about 6 years ago. I think the tourist visa itself was $350. Course fees are dependent on the prestige of the tertiary institution, international students pay more. These are Melbourne University fees: https://study.unimelb.edu.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0028/341893/2023-International-Fee-Table_NOV.docx.pdf Living expenses, no idea. Rents have gone through the roof, I'm glad I am not there anymore.

I am wondering when Merrick Garland will drop the other shoe. I suppose leading America from a jail cell is preferable to him doing it from a golf course, less expensive for US taxpayers.

Correct.

Any young woman ( and older ones ) coming from Thailand seems to be automatically regarded as a prostitute by Australian authorities. A very convincing data set of support needs to be assembled to satisfy them, I would suggest engaging an Australian-based immigration lawyer. Private schools are extremely expensive, the last 4 years prior to university at Haileybury one is looking at $35,920 per year.

Like it or not, the USD is still the world's reserve currency, and most international transactions are written in USD. Out of the BRIC bloc, only China has a GDP close to the US, and the CCP has its own problems with a property collapse and a faltering economy, due to draconian lockdown policies.
