  1. What has perfume got to do with anything? Best to stop sniffing before posting.
  2. I can see a problem at the initial flight check in. If their departure date is after their visa exempt stay, including the extension, they might have an issue. Check-in staff dont necessarily know about permission to stay extensions. Or even if it will be granted. Been there done that. I know there will be comments about stepping away and booking a fake flight.....ever tried that at a busy airport? See how that goes with 50 people lined up behind you all wanting to check-in after queueing for 30 minutes. Best thing I have I found is to book a genuine ongoing flight for the lowest possible price and simply don't go on the flight....throw away flight as it were. Might cost a hundred bucks but alleviates a lot of hassles. Done it a few times when I planned to go Savannkhet to get a multi non o based on marriage without 400k in a Thai bank. Those days are long gone unfortunately.
  3. Laoation or Burmese. Many Viet girls around to these days as well.
  4. Thaksin Shinawatra Moved to Prison Hospital Wing for Wealth. The, fixed the headline.
  5. I think the issue is keeping all kids on to the twelfth grade when they simply don't have the abilities required. Much better for them to leave school in grade ten and pursue something really useful and much needed like a trade. Don't need a degree for carpentry and brick laying. The thinking that everyone needs a grade 12 education and go on to university is flawed. Like the old joke....what does an arts graduate say ....would you like fries with that.
  6. In Australia the diagnosis of Autism seems to be linked to the seemingly unlimited capacity of the National Disability Insurance Scheme funds available. Bit like the old adage of junk expands to fill the available space.
  7. Perhaps it is the quantity of the fast food being consumed and not the quality, along with high sugar content drinks. Add in lack of exercise for the lard arses. Banning DDT was a crime against humanity. Millions have died from malaria when the mosquitoes could have been controlled or eradicated. Seem to remember that a study showed it may have caused a soft shell in an eagles egg and subsequently banned. My mum use to put liquid DDT on insect bites in the 60's.
  8. Is it possible that lifestyle is more of a factor than vaccines. A fat kid was a rarity when I was growing up. Look at videos of the Woodstock concert, not too many fatties there. Now it has become normal to the extent we now have the term fat shaming. Plus size models....ha ha. MacDonald's and KFC have a lot to answer for. My mum actually used to cook. Not heat up pre prepared food in a microwave. Add in the various herbicides and insecticides that are now being used that weren't around in the 50's and 60's and it could be quite a cocktail of factors that is affecting the population.
  9. Wow, AustinRacing is handing out thumbs down like they are going out of fashion!
  10. I didn't. I just look at who posted it, read the first couple if sentences and know what is coming. Same with GG.
  11. Can hardly call Iran neutral anymore, not since the religious nutters run the show. They appear to be the root cause of the problem right now.
  12. Give it a rest mate. Or post on Facebook where there will be many like minded individuals where you can indulge in circular back slapping. Or ,God forbid, Quora. Most members here are mature enough to have gained real world experience of the benefits of vaccinations
  13. A two state solution will guarantee ongoing issues for evermore.
  14. Supply of electricity. Myanmar doesn't really have a power transmission system in the North.
  15. Several PhD's? Nonsense.
  16. Thank you David Bowie.
  17. Given up on the real estate agent dream already?
  18. OP, tell that to my friends wife. Got pregnant in the 1960's, unmarried at the time. Caught German measles and gave birth to a deaf,dumb and blind girl. The family have been through constant challenges all their lives. Bet she would have loved to have had the MMR vaccine. Read a story about a young mum, didn't believe in vaccines, whose baby got whooping cough. Scared crap out of her and she now believes in vaccines. Believe what you want. My kids are vaccinated as are theirs. Mind you scaring people away from vaccines is one way of reducing the population I guess. Perhaps that's the goal, who knows.
  19. Thanks. I don't have any worries about anything.Plenty of money,great wife and healthy. Couldn't ask for more.
  20. How many intrudes have you shot?
  21. I stick to the five food groups Malt Barley Sugar Yeast Water.
