  1. You got it. There is a Thai model/actress in jail for over 30 years for a tenth of a gram of coke (or meth). I don't see how that case, or this, are anything more than a set up. I would like to think he is guilty of something else, .... never will know. Phuket airport is also where they found bullets in the luggage of two departing tourists. That little event cost 6 weeks plus in the pokey and roughly 50K USD each. In one of those cases, the perp asked to see the bullet, they never showed it to him. Instead he got the old Sierra Madre routine ... we don't need no stinking bullets.
  2. And the MAGA heads have a new narrative for on his latest F up, & can use an old standards ... 'Trust the plan' & 'the art of the deal'. On the plus side he did not crash the world economy, on the negative side, China knows what a joke he is, if they didn't already. All bark, & nothing. Wait him out & he will sull. Panama, Greenland & Canada also know how empty his bellowing really is. This should help the Ukraine too. The coffee seems to taste better this morning, go figure.
  3. Trump never had a plan or strategy. He's just pulling it out of his a--, like he has always done. It's why he has had to file bankruptcy six times. He still has lots of time to work on bankruptcy number seven.
  4. Sounds like typical Russian/Soviet style disinformation. Promoted & pushed by Reds, MAGA heads & fellow travelers. ваше здоровье
  5. Can't see that being an issue with the local Thai community. The ones to watch are the MAGA expats. They could easily become violent and lash out, as disability pensions, SSecurity etc. get cut. That said, I do like & buy Heinz, SW, Hot Sauce, Bourbons, etc., from the USA. I will boycott US goods, sure, why not?! Sourcing replacements is an ongoing task. This week it's hot sauce, not the best, but workable, as a replacement.
  6. After 9/11 Afghanistan was going to happen.. The trillion dollar plus disaster was when jrBush & the Republican party took their eyes off the ball & went chasing WMD in the Iraqi desert. A disaster the US is paying for to this very day. Understandably right wing MAGA heads cannot mention it.
  7. I got you, and likely feel somewhat the same, not a fan of Netty at all, in fact I despise the man. However I would not be in the least surprised if the red crescent guys were also HAMAS. That is how they do things, they have a past track record of doing exactly that. And somehow this fact gets ignored. HAMAS got the war they wanted, looks like they are crying about it, to anyone who will listen. I would send tissue but just no sympathy left.
  8. One in a million?, make it two. Brit tourist a decade or more, back. Drinking, his dentures got loose and somehow sucked back into his windpipe. He choked to death. Up north In MHS or Chiang Rai, too. Yuck
  9. A superfood, but it is the utility that sets it apart. A leftover slice .... toss an egg on, BREAKFAST!
  10. No alert was going to warn people about an earthquake, better reporting after the earthquake might have been good, still Warning about, say a Tsunami generating after ... yeah ... of course they refused to act on that back when, as it might damage tourism. Turns out the Tsunami did damage tourism. Go figure.
  11. 248 Mahidol Rd, Pa Daet Sub-district, Mueang Chiang Mai District, Chiang Mai 50100 Sloane's has a shop on the north side of Mahidol, just past the PTT, heading east. Its in a office Park, tricky to find, as you don't see it from where you turn in at. Not a pie connoisseur, but use their products, & for years. Sloane's is great. Using Chorizo sausage today, to add to a soup. Sage onion Dressing & gravy for Christmas (Thanksgiving) sides. Sold at Rimping & Tops also.
  12. A NYPost article! The bargain basement of right wing US tabloids. The lefts obsession?! Really, Looks like Elon led the way, and the NYP pretends it is the lefts obsession, knowing that the MAGA chorus will start singing.
  13. Republicans always howl the loudest, until they eff up and the shoe is on the other foot. Fricking incompetents.
  14. It happened to me in both 2022 & 23. Last October I included a 90 day notice form pre filled out, as I assumed a 90 day notice would be processed along with my Non – O extension based on retirement, (non family) as it had the previous years. Wrong again. This year they handed it back to me. Never assume anything about CM immigration.
  15. The Republican Senator from Minnesota, Justin Eichorn, who introduced the bill to legally make “Trump Derangement Syndrome” a recognized mental disorder has been arrested on suspicions of SOLICITING A MINOR.
