Let's hope that another Asian  "Peoples Party" does not rise from the ashes.

Asian History 101 raises the question: Why aren't the "Big Boys" taking care of the masses?

Start giving cash to the masses...

The Gyms were closed today.

If it happened as she said  - the  deceased found out "being a bully works every time  - except once."

Whats the big 3?

The deep barbell  squat (AKA The King) the  dead lift, and the bench press (AKA The Two Princes)

Go Go yummy bars - whilst quite expensive - were my favorite treat.

If they cancel "Covid Visas" - all the tall Russian babes will go home.

Use an agent.

Absolutely.

Arguably, Mr. Gachoud Olivier is "all go - and no show". He has earned my respect.

Imagine the "loss of face" those Thais are enduring. Very sad indeed.

This situation reminds me that "desperate men make desperate moves", thus caution is the operative word.

There was a long 3 person wide line yesterday afternoon. Very telling indeed.

Why isn't the Thai Government being benevolent? They are missing a golden opportunity to solidify and expand their base - a fact that should be obvious to any 2nd Year Social Science student

Up to episode 4 of season 2, and (so far) it's well written entertainment.

Yes, it IS. And I've seen what only walking can do to the obese. You? And now for--your EVIDENCE. Where is it?

 

While we're waiting, I'll continue to follow common sense and the science. I suggest the overweight and obese among us do the same. Stick with light exercise (short walks, for example) while you focus seriously on losing the weight. Standard advice you'll find in, for example, reddit.com/r/bodyweightfitness/.

 

You may, however, advise your orthopedist that no less an authority than @Tanomazu says you can do more with no problem and see if he agrees; then choose whom to follow. It's only your feet, ankles, knees, hips, and back.

If your gonna do the walking program, spend some coin on really good athletic shoes. Also, start small - and work your way up. A good "mind trick" to add, is to stash a pair of pants/shorts that are a snug fit. Then try them on once a month. If ones diet is good (intermittent fasting) one will find that they have become progressively loose.

Its actually Asean Now which covers more than just Thailand.

Let's hope certain parties temper their emotions via the use of logic, reason, and facts.

The government only has itself to blame for the mess it's in now. Back in February/March they could have imposed similar restrictions nationwide to those that worked a year ago, but for whatever reason they just weren't paying attention or taking things seriously and so they allowed the Great Songkran Travel Disaster to happen, and the rest, as they say, is history. They also seem to have been asleep on the job when it came to securing adequate vaccine supplies, but that's a common theme in many, if not most, East Asian countries. The problem has been compounded here by the usual corruption and embezzlement, but a friend told me that something similar is happening in the Philippines, so again Thailand is not unique in its problems. And, of course, Pattaya probably has the most corrupt and inept management of any large city in the country, which won't surprise anybody who's been here for long enough and is aware of the background story. The problem is, though, that all these powerful crooks only care about one thing, and it's not the health and well-being of the general public, so if they see a personal monetary advantage to reopening Pattaya as planned in two months time I suspect that they're just going to go ahead and do it, regardless of who's had a vaccine or how many might fall ill or die as a result. The only thing that will stop their plans is if the virus gets completely out of control in Pattaya, but would that be any better for us unvaccinated expats than reopening as planned?

A smart coalition of "Big Boys" would invest big baht in the Thai People because, if they don't, there is a "grave" possibility that a revolutionary "Peoples Party" will arise from the ashes.

Today, on Beach Road, there were 2 long lines of Thais queuing for food handouts, so at least the local government is providing some aid.

Training "the big 3" will stimulate the release of HGH and testosterone. The keys are not to over train, proper nutrition, and, even if you are training properly - going light every 4th week. Thus preventing the over-release of adrenaline, norepinephrine, and cortisol - the 3 major stress hormones.

Don't forget cardiovascular exercise.

The other day, I went for a 2 hour walk. The next morning my knee, lower leg, and outside thigh were in agony. (DOMS) Anyway, I talked to a young massage gal, and we agreed upon 400b for a 2 hour oil massage, plus a 100b tip - if she soothed the pain. (This was not a naughty massage scenario) She did a great job, I was relaxed, and the pain had been minimized. I handed her the cash, and she tells me it's only 420b. WT%! I had forgotten that I had bought some 711 goodies. I dig around my waist bag and come up with 20b. She refused, and stated "You jep mak mak, get baht bus home - then sleep." Wow, I love that beautiful woman - with a good heart - combo"! (AKA -GFE)

First I am gonna give her a 100b, then I am going to get a few more massages from her.
