It has been known for children to drink stain cleaning fluid and die, yet nobody wants a ban on stain cleaning fluid. I wonder why that is. Maybe because in the case of the stain cleaning fluid, they CAN stand the smell?

Maybe you need a girlfriend you can trust?

You mean you wouldn't be here any longer?

I filed taxes under the (postal) address I use for my bank account and broker's account (also on the dividend slips). TRD never questioned the address or required any kind of contract. Now if one day I go to IO to get a certificate of travel record (with a view to get the RO22 certificate from the regional TRD), this could become a problem, as IO will insist on writing down my actual address at the time. I don't like the idea of TRD raising proof of address issues on top of already tricky tax issues.

I'd rather any government in power had their work cut out for them. That's less time they have on their hands for cannabis.

Yeah, and there's bad need for more shops selling the same suitcases, and more Indian tailor shops.

If you own shares (stock) it's good to have them in a different currency from that of your regular income (eg pension). Fluctuations then kind of cancel out. I still remember the days during the first decade of this centry when the dollar was 1 euro = 1.5 USD. The present exchange rate is still far from that.

Yes, and most importantly, "I can't stand the smell" passes off as less bigoted than "I can't stand people getting high". The smell of weed is one plant-based smell among many. There are dozens of kitchen smells with far more potential to make many people retch than the smell of weed, ranging from garlic and durian to fermented fish sauce (I forgot the name, pla ra?). Not to mention the ubiquitous smell of drains in TH. Having often grown my own in Europe in the past, I found that the smell of a living cannabis plant, whether in the growing or the flowering stage, was 9 times out of 10 considered mildly pleasant by people who didn't know what the plant was.

Never mind whether 80% or even 98%. The majority should not have a mandate to oppress minorities.

Four wives but for whom? There aren't enough hot young wives to go round.

Seriously ill people who get shots of such painkillers become every bit as addicted as street junkies.

What didn't work out? The "morphine" used in medecine is diacetyl morphine: (CH₃CO)₂ -Morphine. Diacetyl morphine is heroin but it wouldn't sound good to call it that, would it? It is a shame that people who call for the death penalty for dealers should be entitled to such painkillers when they come to the end of their despicable lives. They should be restricted to acetaminophen. The medical case cannabis has largerly been a way to make any kind of legalisation acceptable for the bigotted masses. It has been so in the US as well.

The question is, will a prescription be a blank check to buy the kind of cannabis I like from whichever source I see fit? If it means all I'm allowed to do is buy a particular overpriced cannabis oil from a pseudo-pharmacy, that will be the end of legal cannabis in Thailand as far as I'm concerned.

All the same, the presence of thimerosal in so many vaccines is a valid reason not to get more vaccines than is necessary.

Indeed someone said that, as a debate goes on, the probability of Hitler being mentioned always approaches unity.
