  1. It's an oddity of life that many who received that letter will still vote against their own interests to elect the very people who have no intention to expand their benefits or genuinely work to make Medicare better.
  2. A friend of mine has a Non-B visa with a 1 year extension. He had to return to the USA for some family matters but is still working online for the Thai bank he works for. It seems like I once read somewhere that if you remain out of Thailand for more than 180 days your extension will be cancelled and you have to start the process over again. I believe he has a two year work permit and one year extension. He will be returning before the extension expires. Is that true or am I misremembering. 🙂
  3. I buy both lager and dark in cans all the time at Tops Central Silom and Tops Central Chidlom.
  4. I will never understand why they don't make the drainage holes and tubing bigger to prevent clogging and leaks!!!
  5. Seems to me that your masters want you to focus on immigration so you don't focus on the fact that you are their slaves.
  6. First time I ever watched Rogan, although I have heard of him. I didn't realize he was a moron. Go figure.
  7. I sure wish Kamala had looked at him and said, Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last? Have you left no sense of decency?

    I just completed this quiz. My Score 30/100 My Time 92 seconds  
  9. Thanks for the suggestions and links. I still hope to find a recommendation for a shop but I might give it doing it myself a try. The soundsticks are open now anyway as the glue has failed. Great sound, looks cool, but so damn poorly made!
  10. Thanks. Is that GO-Green in Chiang Mai? Google is not giving me anything about CBD Monsta either. I would like to give it a try. Any further details would be appreciated.
  11. Thanks. I ordered a few strains to try.
  12. Anyone know where I can get the satellite speakers repaired on Harman Kardon Soundsticks 3. I once had it done on a different set at Amorn in Chinatown, but they no longer can.
  13. It was not the advice I am seeking.
  14. Looks like I will need to mail the direct deposit form and possibly other documents to the Federal Benefits Unit at the US Embassy in the Philippines. What Thai Post service is best for this. Is it necessary to use EMS? I am not sure if EMS is as expensive as sending docs to the USA?
  15. Yes, it is absolutely shameful when someone dishonestly avoids going to war and does not take action to stop a riot when it is in their power to do so! I agree completely.
  16. I don't know anything about weed really. I would like to try some to help me relax and sleep better. Any suggestions on what strain to buy and where to buy it in Bangkok? Approximate cost for a gram? I stopped by a shop on Saladeng Soi 1 that someone recommended to me and they said they don't sell weed by the single gram and wanted 1000 baht for what they said would be useful for my purposes. I really just want to give a gram or a joint a try and see if I like it. Thanks for your suggestions.
  17. Just curious, I applied for SS on 16 August and it is still under review in the Philippines. How long did it take for you before they approved it and you got your first payment? Did anyone contact you for further information? And did they contact you to get the information for direct deposit into your Thai bank. Thanks.
  18. I am thinking of forgoing Part B for a year or 2 after I turn 65 in October. $4000 dollars just about covers my Thai insurance for two years which gives me 5 million baht hospital coverage, but not such great outpatient coverage for cancer. It is a small risk, I guess, but tempting. However, I don't know how much they will jack up my insurance this year though...
  19. Look, let's build walls where they are efficient at stopping boarder crossings and let's not build walls where they are useless symbols intended to pander to ideological beliefs. Instead let's spend the money for unneeded walls on bolstering the legal and enforcement systems. Duh!

  21. I just happened to be walking past there at Emquartier and noted that the biscuits are 35 baht each, takeaway. I will satisfy that nostalgic desire soon, before they close down.
  22. He is clearly a genius. Just look at how he handled Covid and the love and respect he commands from all who worked for him in his previous administration.
