  1. Not I, but I could hire someone skinny and young to do it. IF it would be worth it, I would find someone to get up there....BUT....would I trust him, without supervision, to do a thorough job...is another question.
  2. Therefore, it would seem from your information that it is normal to lead "some" under certain not unusual weather conditions. And, possibly that this is not preventable. How much leakage is acceptable, then? I would say that if the painted ceiling begins to turn color, due to water leakage from the roof, then this might be unacceptable. However, I am not familiar with the local building standards. Is it normal to sometimes here water dripping onto the ceiling from a slightly leaking roof? Or, what can be done about it, if anything. Do most homeowners just accept this as being normal?
  3. How uncouth can one get? Time will tell.... Just keep it up, please... IF, that is, you actually....can.....
  4. I once thought I was Lord Randolph Churchill, when I was younger. Fortunately, even if I actually had BEEN Lord Randolph, we now know that I NEVER did suffer from syphilis.
  5. I do not write fiction. All is fact, or based loosely on real-life experience.
  6. What? You wish that I should, somehow, all of a sudden...succumb to renal failure.... And then become, a burden on the medical system? This makes NO SENSE.... Even for you, Sir....
  7. Sorry: I meant to write.... Too Hot for Pork-Chops. When I was younger, no matter the weather.... As WC Fields correctly stated.... When one is young.... It's NEVER too hot for pork-chops. And.... The porkier the better !!! (depending upon one's preferences)
  8. So....even BETTER than Ivory Snow? I am purer than Ivory Snow, is what you are saying? LOUSY Soap, by the way.... REASON: It's not pH buffered to be kind to mine eyes.... Ivory Snow, and Ivory Soap: Disgusting !!! I don't like babies....either...much...if at all....!!! But... I like WC Fields, for sure! NOTE4: In Thailand, during the Hot Season.... Do you think it's ever.... TO HOT FOR PORK-CHOPS?
  9. I qualify. How much are they paying? What must I do to get the money?
  10. CUCUMBER! Nothing like a cucumber sandwich during either the Hot Season or the Raining Season.
  11. Sure, I am normal. Very normal...other than....the fact that I have an AB-normally HIGH IQ, of course. By the way, back in the day.... I once had the clap. High does of penicillin cleared it right up. These days, I have no idea what they use to treat STDs....because...as you know..... I have been celibate for so many years.....and thankful for being so. Yes. I am fairly normal. Nobody is really normal, though, and this includes me, I guess.
  12. Dear Folks, I have a bad tooth infection, and I know I need this tooth, one which has already had root-canal therapy, extracted....ASAP. But, The Question IS: Do you think I am high on Amoxicillin? And, is it even possible to get HIGH on Penicillin? Personally, I think it is. I am feeling a bit spacey, even more spaced-out than usual. My pain is flowing away, though, and so I do not care much. Or, maybe it is this incessant rain, recently, and especially this evening....that makes me feel out of touch with reality. So.... If you take ENOUGH Amoxicillin, can this cause one to experience a Break with Reality? Also, I wonder: How much Amoxy is just too much Amoxy? Fortunately, I have a dynamite dentist, and therefore soon I will be weaned off these antibiotics....before....I become addicted.....maybe. Lastly, I will tell you.... No matter how bad the pain gets....I never take anything stronger than Ibuprofen, something which I have always found works rather well. I have never enjoyed dental pain, and I guess many of you might feel as do I. I feel sorry for those who have not the means to seek out good dental care....because.... I am blessed to have one of the best dentists here in Thailand, compared to others in Taiwan, that I have ever had. Also, they are super nice.....my dentists and my office receptionists. Yes. I am high. But, I am not HIGH on Amoxy. I think I might be a little high on PAIN.....! Pain, for me, has always been one of the most potent aphrodisiacs. Both pain and Afros. My best adivce to all young people is to take care of your teeth. And, avoid sugar, both for dental health and also in order to avoid Afrosclerosis. Best regards, Gamma Note: If you might have any Dental-Pain stories to tell.... Here is the place. I love hearing others' dental-pain stories, when I am feeling dental pain, just as a very welcome distraction from my own pain. Thank you!
  13. Well....if you appreciated that response...let me give you another response.....OK? I recently purchased the A55 5G. On paper, the specs look super-good (for the money).... And, the price is OK if you buy it in Thailand....and I forget what I paid, but you can check-out the most recent pricing from Samsung, in Thailand. The phone that I bought is this configuration: I do not like Android 14, or at least the Samsung garbage version on this phone. However.... This phone has a lot of plusses, such as the microSD, the 12GB of RAM, and the 256GB of internal storage. Would I buy it again? YES, I definitely would. ======== However, the negatives include what I consider to be much poorer volume than my NOTE4. Also, I still like my NOTE4 better, just from the perspective of the feel of it and the functioning of it. The NOTE4 was an amazing phone for its time. ========= I have no idea what you might choose to do....but..... I like this phone that I purchased a few weeks ago. Especially, I like the 12GB of RAM and the 256GB of internal memory. The only question is.....where to buy it at the cheapest price...... Amazon, as far as I could see, weeks ago, was cheaper. =============== I need a case for this phone...however....since.... This phone is very slippery. No doubt, I will drop it soon, unless I get my ordered case...PDQ......!! ========== I do not like the inferior responsiveness of the touch screen on this phone, compared to my old NOTE4.... Or, perhaps, this is just my perception, and not really based on reality..... As you know.... I, too, am not reality-based. Good Phone for the money. I would DEF buy it again!
  14. Here is a very strange FACTOID: According to IMDB.... Kathrine Hepburn was originally asked to play the part of Hana_Ogi.....!!!!!!!!!!!!! But, she turned down the part. Instead, luckily, Miiko Taka was chosen to play Hana Ogi. She was perfect for the part. BUT, IF Kate Hepburn had been chosen to play the part of Hana Ogi in Sayonara.... Then, I think it would have been equally good to have Godzilla play Hana Ogi..... I guess we all recall Kate Hepburn in The Good Earth, trying to play a Chinese Woman....with her fake slanted eye(s). Such a gruesome sight! Such disfigurement !!! So gruesome !!! Godzilla, the Jap Monster, was prettier than she.....!!!!! Sayonara ... Sayonara ... Gamma Goodbye.....
  15. Dear Folks, I love living in the old Thai houses, with hardwood floors. I love them more during the Hot-Dry Season, however. For example, my house has a roof of traditional tiles which leaks unless the rain falls directly down, with zero wind. Even then, sometimes it seems to leak. Have you ever looked up at a roof from the inside? Because, there is really NOTHING there, seemingly, holding up the roof tiles, other than sticks and splinters of wood. Sure, they look fine from the outside. But, from the inside.....there is really almost nothing there. It's like, if these roofs were on houses in Taiwan, with the Typhoons, and SUPER TYPHOONS, typical of Taiwan....then....the would be gone...in a... NEW YORK MINUTE. Why do they build roofs this way in Thailand? Is it because they do not want to use up too much wood from the local jungle, in order to protect the environment? And, also, what to do about a leaking roof, which is probably not even strong enough to hold up a roofing-worker who might dare to clamber above... Just to try to stem the leaks? And also, what is the point of painting a ceiling in one of these houses...since.... After you put a fresh coat of paint on the ceiling, then....its....SURE to be.... Quickly discolored when the leaks from the next Raining Season begin to fall from the roof, onto the ceilings above one's head. So many questions. And, another question: Why not just cover the entire roof with that ZERO-COST plastic material.... Which is discarded from Advertising.... You know the type I am talking about about.... I am talking about the recycling of the PVC or Plastic Giant Advertising sheets that are discarded....like this one.... During the Raining Season, if I had about 10 of these Ad Banners...then I could just throw them up on my leaking roof.... And tie them down... And then ALL would be well. I have seen these used in other 3rd-World countries. But, I doubt that they might go over really well with my neighbors. So then... Is there a different and better solution, one that is almost as low cost? Best regards, Gamma NOTE4: A drip is a drip is a drip......and.....Drips are always worse at night, when one is intent upon falling asleep.
  16. Good Question. NOW....NOW....You are REALLY getting into the SPIRIT of my Topics....! So glad, Sir, to finally welcome you....ONBOARD.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  17. NO! I am not here winding up anyone!!!! However, I cannot say that my AC problems are not a long, WINDING, and convoluted tale of woe....for sure...and NOT....maybe!!!!
  18. I predicted you would say something like this, even before you had read this Topic.
  19. Tramadol is an INSIDIOUS drug. Tramadol, due to its dual action, seems to be able to cause problems of addiction and dependency, far worse than just a traditional opioid. In other words, Tramadol might add on the complications similar to a benzodiazepine addiction. Let's keep in mind, for example, what happened to that prof from Canada, Peterson. It might be OK to take Tramadol for up to a week, post op, for example. However, this is a drug which is not OK for daily use, unless one might be in an end-of-life disease situation. IMHO....only....
