  1. I made it once to the Hotel Everest View via Pilatus STOL aircraft and helicopter. https://hoteleverestview.com/
  2. At age 70+, my version of the Serenity Prayer: God give me the courage to change the things I can ... and screw the rest.
  3. I agree. Sometimes my hand shakes so much I can hardly get a spoonful of soup from bowl to mouth. Something like this comes in handy:
  4. If any need to consult someone else in Khon Kaen, you might speak to Dr. Kachit at KK Ram who is also on the KKU medical school staff. http://www.khonkaenram.com/en/doctors/66
  5. The problem with talking about your swimming on here, some guy will come on and say: Well that's nice . But I once swam the English Channel whis(st) towing a coal barge.
  6. Per the above: 103-year-old Maine 'Lobster Lady' signs up for 95th year hauling traps Maine's 103-year-old "Lobster Lady" has signed up for a 95th year at the job, NEWS CENTER Maine reported. Virginia “Ginny” Oliver, known as Maine's oldest lobster harvester, began hauling traps before the Great Depression, at 8 years old, with her father and older brother. Oliver, who celebrated her 103rd birthday this week with friends and family, will still lobster for the 2023 season, according to the outlet. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2023/06/09/virginia-oliver-senior-lobster-lady-maine/70307294007/
  7. You left out drinking your own urine: " I also drink urine which is a magic bullet breaking down the sediment buildup and returning the body to full health." https://aseannow.com/topic/1292117-best-solution-for-enlarged-prostate-that-blocks-urinating/?do=findComment&comment=18019846
  8. I'm with you. I was the proverbial late bloomer. My motto: He who screws last, screws best.
  9. My wife and her family ARE in the food business. Last thing she wants to do after work is cook.
  10. I check out online recipes and youtube cooking a bit but it is annoying that most every one says "This is the best meat loaf recipe ever" or "I made this and the family ate it all up and wanted more."
  11. Agree. Most things I cook for myself I try to have 3-4 meals out if it.
  12. One advantage: Life insurance policies in Thailand are payable-upon-death to beneficiaries without probate. Bank accounts will involve probate.
  13. Recently? What is a bone spur? A bone spur, also called an osteophyte, is a smooth, bony lump that grows off a bone. Bone spurs develop over long periods of time, usually near joints (where two or more bones meet). https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/10395-bone-spurs-osteophytes
  14. Both my parents were about 10 handicap golfers and Life Master ACBL bridge players. All I will say is that I do neither.
  15. Korean battered hotdogs seems to now be a big thing in USofA https://www.ohkdog.com/
  16. I like their salads both the prepared kind like Caesar and just mixed greens in the bag. 'Can't always get to Makro when I run out of salad stuff.
  17. At age 70, I went to the US Embassy Bangkok for the affirmation to marry. I handed to the older Embassy consular the form with the box checked Single - Never Married. The guy looked at it over a bit and said: Are you SURE you want to sign that under oath? that you have NEVER been married? So like the old Volkswagen ad: No radiator problems. No radiator No problem with children from prior marriages. No children.
  18. What is referred to on here as self-insurance is really self-pay. Insurance involves the sharing of risk and at least the possibility of getting back in paid claims more than you put in as premiums. With self-insurance, as used on here, what you got is what you got.
  19. I agree. In LOS -- where someone can be shot close range over a parking dispute -- I try not to cause ill will to anyone.
  20. It was more fun when you knew who was leaving the sad and confused emojis.
  21. You wrote earlier this topic: 'Those insured should also be self insured as a "claim denied" is likely and common.' * As you asked before on this topic about some detail for the 5M baht self-insurance account , how about some detail on your 'likely' reference above: Likelihood of an outcome or result: "Virtually certain" means greater than a 99 percent probability of occurrence. "Extremely likely" means greater than 95 percent. "Very likely" means greater than 90 percent. "Likely" means greater than 66 percent. "More likely than not" means greater than 50 percent. "About as likely as not" means 33 to 66 percent. "Unlikely" means less than 33 percent. https://www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/uploads/2017/08/AR5_Uncertainty_Guidance_Note.pdf * https://aseannow.com/topic/1299265-when-does-it-become-time-to-put-money-aside-in-a-separate-account-and-self-insure/?do=findComment&comment=18172290
