FBI found more than 11,000 government records at Trump's Florida home
Dan O replied to onthedarkside's topic in World News
Did you think they were going to show you the classified and top secret documents? -
Nope, I replied to you as I read thru the posts and saw your errors post. I didn't read every posting to the end of the thread before I commented like most all posters here.

It was originally design by a group at Xerox in the 70's based on concepts developed in the mid 60's, I believe if memory serves me correctly.

You'll need a consolidator to assemble your goods to be containerized. With all the lockdowns and port issues from covid alone that may stop your progress in its tracks for an unknown time. You would have no control after purchase of the materials due to those shutdowns and have already paid for your goods. You also wont know the real quality of products purchased until they arrive and then correcting or solving any issues could be a nightmare to solve. The minimal savings and perceived better selection may be lost to the issues you may face.

Credit Card Perceptions in Thailand?
Dan O replied to hellohello123's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
You two should stop arguing as you both have part of the credit and debit process correct and both have part of the process wrong. -
Covid visa an entry denial
Dan O replied to asia123's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Not nonsense. The covid extension of stay was originally created because most every country was in lock down and you could not enter and many airlines were not flying all routes as a result. I was there when it started and almost could not get out and return to the USA before the added that extension of stay.. Go back and check the facts. In my opinion it was only continued later as method to salvage some level of money for the economy due to to the lack of tourist numbers. -
There seems to be more to this story (obviously) as some info doesn't seem to mesh with the situation completely. If the girl was sitting in the seat behind the driver it would be difficult to miss her if anyone looked. What about the other students on the van that got out when she didn't. I don't know many kids that don't hang out in groups, did they not miss her? Since they stopped and let the students out and then moved the van to another location why didn't the student say anything or get out of the van herself. Also if the driver was so negligent to not look and see a student sitting behind him when he parked and got out of the van, what alerted him to see her laying on the floor behind the driver seat? That would have been much harder to see. The one thing I find truly odd is the statement about blood coming out of her mouth when they found her and a cup of water! Blood coming out of the mouth is not a normal sign of heat exhaustion and death, I don't believe. Also why have a cup of water there?? That is very suspicious. Also the 3 teachers going to the home. Why did they do that, it doesnt sound like they went for support of the family or to notify them of the death. Sounds like they were fishing for info to help defuse blame.

No mention. It was a good movie but sanitized of several aspects that happened during the live event. -
If there's resin leaching from the filter media that may not be safe for drinking. If it doesn't clear from a good flushing I would remove it and replace it with another media.

I take the same position. I dont like family to wai me for any reason other than just a greeting. Never in a situation of disagreement or error.

So much for the OP thread about Face in Thailand. Some confuse the issue of needing to separate Farang from their money to improve their lifestyle as Face, which it isnt. Face is a concept practiced in most nationalities although under different names. Its more a two sided concept of not publicly causing embarrassment or loss of respect for person for the actions by giving them a way out of a conflicting situation or on the part of the person committing the offense to provide a reason (excuse) for having caused the conflict which deflects blame and allows them to maintain dignity or respect in their social order. In a society where the majority of the populace is financially encumbered respect and social status may be the only measure for someone's worth similar to one's reputation. Really not hard to understand or grasp.

Not speaking to the punishment issue but I question the need for surgery for muscle inflammation. Infection also questionable. Sure it probably is inflamed but surgery is pretty serious for inflammation. 200 timesto sit and stand is hardly severe exercise, especially for an active teen

Border hop agencies
Dan O replied to JoseThailand's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Good info overall but your comment on "using entry airports that follow the law" is incorrect. The job of IO is to screen entrants. They have the authority by law to deny entrance to people they feel are inappropriate by they judgment, not yours. -
This is not the place to get proper information unless you find the one random boater with experience. Otherwise your getting opinions and wild ass guesses.. If he's had boats before he should know how and where to get proper information. Try a marina and talk to a Harbor Master if you want valid info.
