Tiger, tiger lurking in the dark.......... Negative news increasing by the day. Globally. But the "markets" still signalling "it won't be so bad". Still massive liquitity looking for a home. The home was the share markets. Who want's to leave a cosy home? Still, I remain: Tiger, tiger lurking in the dark..........

Once more and testing: After 10 minutes of self imposed keyboard/clicking strict "inactivity", I was automatically logged-out from ASEAN NOW once again.. As usual. To post this short message, I had to log-in again.

Not sure if this belongs here or not. A brand new post: "How does Thailand rank on the price of sex index"? According to "webfact" 17 hours old. But wasn't visible 2 hours ago on ASEAN NOW. How does the "importation" or"exportation" of threads work on ASEAN NOW? Not the first time I noticed this "phenomenon". Old threads from "somewhere", appearing as a new thread here. I am confident, that the "Mod-Team" will deliver a satisfactory reply to this re-occurring "phenomenum". Especially as this inquiry can not be classified as "critisising moderation". ????

Drilling in my nose with only 1 hand is only half the fun. I will train my dog to hit the keyboard every 9 1/2 minutes. My dog will learn faster than me trying to find out what "dark internet forces" control my computer.

Even if I stay in the forum, without clicking or typing, after about 10 min I get logged out without any prior message/warning. I suspect my VPN is the culprit.

Jep, thats exactly the case. I use a laptop. I have no "timing-function" installed whatsoever. Could it be that my VPN has a log off function? For security reasons?

I have noticed, that while "keyboard inactivity" is punished by an automatic "logout", after about 10 minutes here. Completey disregarding the fact, that drilling in ones nose can take longer than 10 minutes. A toilet-session, including contemplations about "god and the world" can easily take longer than 10 minutes. To receive a Pizza's or Gold-Bars from Dubai at the door can easily take longer than 10 minutes. Can't see how a Brithish National can prepare a decent cup of tea in less than 10 minutes. PS: Not such a bad concept, I find. Imagine if every Fake-News producer on social-media had to automatically log-in every 5 minutes, disclosing all his personal data everytime, including his hat-size. The global disease of "misinformation" would be greatly reduced.

How fast or slow can anyone physically age? 70 years old. 3 Months ago, I could walk 1 km. Today, it's 300 meters. Now, getting out of bed and making first steps is a physical challenge. After that, every muscle and bone hurts for the rest of my "active day". Only stopping when I lay motionless in my bed. Medical Examinations show that "There is absolutely nothing wrong with you". How can it be, that a person is dying in a "fast forward" motion, while "There is nothing wrong with you"'? Mildly invasive Prostate operation coming up. Pre-Operative "check-up's" will probably disclose once again "That there is absulutely nothing wrong with you". It's very comforting to know, that lying on your death bead, surrounded by medical wizards, them all whispering in your ear: "There is absolutely nothing wrong with you". Doesn't get any better, or does it?

Multiple "Crisises" on the horizon. Too numerous to mention (especially if you live in Europe). But the global "share markets" are currently sending a clear signal: "It won't be that bad". Possibly taking the clue from "all the crisises over the last 75 years we have always mastered". And: "There is still so much liquidity sloshing around, that TINA (There Is No Alternative) to stocks is reason to buy stocks at the flimsiest positive news. Thus making a true "bear-market" a thing of the past. I am not so sure, this time around.

For about a year I swallow tablets to keep my Prostate problems at bay. First brand of tabletts caused massive dizzieness. New Medicine "Urorec 4mg" I can take without dizzieness. Urge to urinate about every 2 hours. I can live with that. BUT: Penis erection = not taking place anymore. Ejaculate not exiting penis, but being re-directed into bladder??!!?? What causes the ejaculate to be re-direczed into the blatter instead of seeing the light of day or ending up in a place where the sun never shines??? Question(s): Would Viagra/Cialis at least restore "erection" (I take blood-pressure meds). Would a medical invasion (hospitalisation), restore former "sexual-normality"?. Like natural erection and "ejaculate" exiting where nature intended it to exit? Or is it that "prostate-poblems" generally are basically a "death-sentence" for "male-activity below the belt"? I am sure that a couple of elderly Farangs are confronted with the same problem(s). Thanks for input. Also: Thanks Sheryl.
