Will we ever rid ourselves of The Big C., Cancer?

Maybe this is the only kind of chocolate that Lustig would approve of.... Anyway, lips that touch sugar shall never touch mine.... -
Best way to attract Thai Myna birds to my garden?
GammaGlobulin replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
This YT person deserves a watch, maybe.... Nice vid.... (This guy's vid is actually very well done. I am impressed.) -
Most people in Thailand love the Thai Myna bird. I am one who loves this bird, almost above all others. What can I do to attract even more of this species to my lawn? a. Should I use recorded bird calls from an audio speaker? b. Should I set up a Thai Myna Bird...bird feeder? c. Or, what would be the best way to have the maximum number of Thai Myna birds strutting around my property, anyway? This is NOT a JOKE Post. The Thai Myna bird provides me with an enhanced sense of wellbeing. Need some good input here. Thank you. Gamma

a. For sure, these pitiful young people are under the boot. This is absolutely true and absolutely VERY sad, these days. b. There will never be a cure for.... The Big C. c. There will never be a cure for halitosis, either. -

Well, if not God, then who gave us cancer? From whom all blessings flow. Praise God.... All powerful! God has the power to heal.... Right? -
Note: I am saying, basically, that.... When all is added up, what is going on in China, as a result of the CPC, just might be worse for both the world, and for the Chinese people, than almost any other government on the face of this planet. All things considered, and considering the MAGNITUDE and the SCOPE of what the CPC, with its power is capable of, I do believe that the CPC represents the most dangerous group of people the world now faces.

Thanks. Listening to this selection makes me feel less troubled. -
Ever since 1949, the CPC has proved its worth. These days, the CPC remains the last vestige of the most repressive government, besides, maybe, the Hermit Kingdom. Many of you might not know just how toxic the CPC actually is, unless you live behind the bamboo curtain. Every year, and every minute, in fact, the CPC is destroying the hopes of many millions of good people. I ps on the ChiComs, in my thoughts, and in my dreams. How can we finally, once and for all, rid the world of this scourge? Can we? Many people laugh at Gordon Chang. Yes, perhaps, some of the ideas from this guy from Cornell are a bit naïve. Yet, Gordon is definitely not mistaken that the CPC needs to be taken down IF repression and hardship are to be banished from the Middle Kingdom. There are just so many young people in China who are being severely damaged by the Commies....and... You would not believe it, unless you knew. FI on the CCP, I say. Such a dastardly regime. Is there nothing that can be done, by those outside of China, in order to TAKE DOWN the CCP? From 1949 to 2024..... Is this not long enough for us to find some way to put an end to this evil, and to.... Drive a stake through the heart of the Chinese Communist Party? Best regards, Gamma Note: Recently, I think, the Party has begun to destroy the hopes of the youth, in China, and this is completely unforgivable.....

Stage 4. Pancreatic cancer. What about that? -
Some of us, not I, think that we can cure cancer. The US gov once thought it could cure cancer. But, the US Government, at that time, did not realize that.... Dinosaurs had cancer, too. So then, if dinosaurs had cancer, over 65 million years ago,, and if dinosaurs could not cure cancer, back then...then... Do you really think that we will be able to cure cancer, now? So then, how many of you believe that cancer is a "curable" affliction? Or, how many of you are scientists, is just one more way of phrasing this question..... Best regards, Gamma Note: Just like Smallpox, maybe it is God who gave us cancer. What do you think?

You know... Before I moved away from the university.... I could have all my clothes washed and pressed, perfectly, by the shop near my house. Now, I can not. I miss those days. And, I do not sleep as well on bedsheets which are not perfectly pressed. I am sure that you might feel the same as I, in fact.

My last comment is that...I think.... John Huston was a one of a kind. Love him or not, I think he made a few important films. Mankind, I would say, is better off that he lived his life in a way that contributed to our world. China Town! John Huston was in this one, too.... \ \ YOU GOT ME UNDER YOUR SPELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, one thing that impressed me most about this film, The Night of The Iguana... Was those two native boys, paying so much attention to Eva Gardner. In fact, this was a film quite risqué for its time, I believe. It spooked the heck out of me, at the time.... Pre-puberty, as I was, and an innocent at the time.
-
Please note: I first watched .... The Night of The Iguana when I was about 11. At that tender age, this film scared me a bit. And, now that I am living in SE Asia.... Living here, too, scares me a bit, even though I am now much older.

Dear Friends, I have always felt that this film resonates with me. Also, being here in Thailand, I have recognized so many things that remind me of this film, of 1964, a film that I had once thought I had mostly forgotten. So, my question is: Living here in Thailand, does your mind sometimes harken back to this very old film? And, in what ways? Thailand, depending where you live, can sometimes seem like....the.... Heart of Darkness. And, The Night of The Iguana, is just this kind of film. This making of this film was not so easy. In fact, the filming was dangerous, at times, just like living here, dangerously. In my view, this is a haunting film, and a magnificent film, and an important film. I have never lived anywhere more haunting, magnificent, and important, than Thailand. SE Asia is just NOT like East Asia, in any respect. SE Asia is far more primitive than East Asian countries. What say you? Best regards, Gamma

Noisiest bird, newly arrived in CM: What is it?
GammaGlobulin replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
1:50 AM.... And, just this moment, this nosiest of all birds of Thailand is screeching away at me. Why? What is the PURPOSE of these overly-loud vocalizations, at odd hours, anyway? HERE IS a video of this noisy bird.....and so.... Now you know. PERSONALLY, I do not hold this bird's noise against it, in any way. In fact, I sort of even LOVE this bird!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is Nature at it's best, in my estimation. IF this noisy bird wishes to sing out to me, then...I say.... MORE Power To It! I harbor no grudge against this bird for just doing what comes natural to it. AND, I often think that....IF....I were not in Thailand, then....I would not be just so.... Privileged to be able to listen to this bird. TRULY, this bird is a MAGNIFICENT bird! The LOUDER the BETTER! I love it. NOT annoying to me...in any way. I LOVE this annoying bird. Also, just take a look at its red eyes!!! Maybe this bird is suffering a constant and continuous hangover, like some of the Russians in Phuket, who are.... Among the noisiest of humans on that tourist island. I prefer any bird over most Russians, unless..... Dostoyevsky, an author that is probably better than any other. I love all the birds of Thailand, except for the flying rats, which some refer to as pigeons. Walter Pidgeon, is OK, though.... Walter was always endearing. -
Glad to hear this. I now have greater respect for you than I ever had before. Way to go!
