  1. When you tell me to "look for Black in Thailand", I must respectfully refuse to do so. Judging by the behavior, and falling-out boobs, of the Colored Girls in the linked vid of this Topic, I will make this wise refusal. Thank you, just the same.
  2. Maybe.... But, the point is that... They do not NOT target civilians, either.
  3. Yes. This is obvious. Yet, neither pilot nor co-pilot of the Ebola Gay chose their target, either.
  4. Why can't they just learn to settle their differences amicably? Also, how is it that those Black Girls from America happen to be out on the street at 3AM? And the Colored Girls go....doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo What's that Song?
  5. Water? I buy 120 Liters of water, at a time, from that company Glacier. I am very satisfied with the service, and I think the quality is adequate for my purposes. I doubt that the Iran War will interrupt my Glacier Water Delivery, although the price might conceivably go up by 10 or 20 percent, which would not be a hardship for me. But, what about beer? Beer is not really a necessity, either, whatsoever. So what is it that I might stockpile? a. I now have 200 cans of Tops Tuna in my closet. That will last a couple of months, for sure. b. You are correct: I need to stock up on rice. I can buy 60Kgs of Jasmine rice and store in the bottom drawers of my refrigerators, to keep it fresh. c. I guess I can buy 40 Kgs of frozen chicken breast meat. But, sooner or later, that has to run out, sometime. Even if I were to double my monthly food expenditures, I would still be fine with that. The only thing bothering me, a bit, this niggling thing in the back of my mind is loss of electricity during some sort of EMP attack. If I were to lose power, then there goes my 3 ACs which I try to keep at full blast during the Hot Season. Or, I can just use one large AC in my bedroom, I guess. So, in conclusion: So far so good. But we cannot predict the future.
  6. Dear Folks, Do you feel sorry for the US Navy Officers Commander Leigh R Tate and Executive Officer Jeffrey E York of the USS Spruance? Recently, it seems that these two officers have been “outed” by various embassies and news services for being in command of the vessel which fired three missiles at a school, ending the lives of about 170 school girls. Can this be true? Of course, this cannot be good news for the two officers. Are they not also casualties of the Israeli-American decision to bomb Iran, even when it was not in the interest of America to do so, from the beginning? And, what is good for Bibi is seldom best for Israel, as well. How would you be feeling, right about now, if you were Commander Tate? As commander of a US Navy vessel, all responsibility resides with the captain. Remember Wouk’s novel about the vessel, “The Caine”? So then, who is responsible for the bombing of girls’ schools, really? It is no-longer so simple to be a US Naval Captain. Best regards, Gamma Note: I really feel so sorry for Tate, because.... He seems like such a happy person....
  7. When at play, always remember to wear a condom.
  8. This Topic is about how Society has financially rewarded a Sick Pornographer. This Topic is NOT about corruption of minors in Japan. You should read more of Yukio Mishima.
  9. Dear Folks, During the past seven days, we have seen PM2.5 particulates reach over 400 on the AQI in some parts of Chiang Mai. This season is shaping up to be more severe than the past two years, judging by the data this week, anyway. During the past two years, the air quality was decent enough that wearing a respirator was almost more trouble than it was worth. This week, however, I would not leave home without it (a good quality respirator). We have still not reached the Dastardly Level, of the Smoking Season of five or six years ago, in 2019, I think it was. That year the air was Super-Thick. My guess is that with the record-high air temps we are now experiencing, it will not be long until we also hit the Dastardly-Level AQI, at least for a week or two, a pleasure which I still so fondly recall during March and April of 2019. When the AQI gets above the 500 level, then the sun turns orange, and our world loses color. Aircraft become no-longer visible from the ground..And everything is brown. Some days, I think I should have remained in New England, USA, with crisp autumn days, and the beauty of white-steepled churches on every street. Have you seen what the Chiang Mai air is doing to the Moonlight, these days? And, here is a nostalgic song from Smith College, where the Air is Clean...All the Time... We shall overcome. Thank you, 3M. Regards, Gamma Note2: This year, there is something new… I am now receiving PM2.5 Warnings on my Phone. Thanks for This….!!! Note1: As of 9AM today, the air already looks like this. We are smokin’...!!!
  10. You know what they say.... Less rules, and much more chat, inside every single Topic. This is the Pub Forum. Important Note: Please watch the Diesen video. Diesen is a Christian, for sure. But, he is one of those Smart Christians. And, most of his guests are smart, but NOT Christians. So...very interesting and always honest. A breath of fresh air.
  11. Dear Folks, Everybody and his brother, these days, seems to be talking about the progression of the Iran War Debacle. They watch in fear as leaders Climb the Escalation Ladder. The vision brings to mind one of our favorite songs of all times: “Ladder to Heaven” Do you recall this tune? It goes like this…. Seems to me that the song originally spoke of some ladder to a figurative heaven. Now, it seems, Yemen has joined the war. And, are we now facing the closing of the Red Sea? I hope that the WH will not tell us, once again, that this was something completely unexpected. Here is a vid which addresses the question. Strange how fast things seem to be spiraling out of control. Did you ever think you would live to see chaos of this magnitude? An excellent vid. On the plus side, this certainly does put minor issues, such as AI Doom, and Global Warming, Out of Mind. Such a silver lining, one must be thankful! This is the best spin one can put on the Iran War, for now. Perhaps we will become more optimistic about The War, Tomorrow, if we can only become more delusional? It won’t be long now, maybe, before we see a final conclusion. Things cannot escalate forever, exponentially. Sweet Dreams, and… Best regards, Gamma Note: This climb really does feel like an inexorable climb......this time...
  12. This is what soldiers do during wartime. Everybody knows this.
