Your insight is just so very valid. How did you know? I do need to get me to the dentist! I need an extraction and an implant....PDQ. Here in Thailand, dentistry is both excellent and extremely affordable. My only issue is that I fear the fear of dentistry. I do NOT fear my dentist, but only fear the fear of her. My dentist is EXCELLENT! Probably one of the best dentists in all of Thailand. I cannot mention which one, or which dental practice she owns.... I am sure that you understand why.....

Mites: The recent bane of my existence!
GammaGlobulin replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
As you know, I prefer the Farang Pub, in all cases. You should know me, by now, Mr. C. Thank you for asking, however. (I meant: The Farang Pub AND the Lounge Forum, of course. Mr. M. told me that I really belong ONLY in the lounge. He is right, as usual, of course!) -
My Fellow Members of TV: I have lived a LONG time. During my time on Earth, I have never been bothered by parasites, be they internal or "external" parasites, nor the parasites of Pattaya, of which I have read much on TV. But now, truth be told, I am suffering, My Fellows. Therefore, what to do? In my case, I believe I am now plagued by two types of parasites: 1. The Scabies parasite 2. The common dust mite As to how this could have happened, I have been racking my brain trying to understand this terrible turn of events in my life. I will not bore you with the particulars concerning what it FEELS LIKE to be INFESTED. Someday, if you are unlucky enough, you might discover for yourselves, first hand, just what a pleasurable experience this might be. Here, now, I am asking for your support and advice concerning how best to rid myself of these pesky parasites, all in one go. For example, I have thought about buying a 10-dollah tent, pitching the tent in my compound, on the lawn, and sleeping, working, and relaxing, out in the very hot sun of Thailand, just waiting for the parasites to realize that their kind host has left them, just waiting for them to die, Die, DIE! I will be pleased to answer any pertinent questions concerning my environment and my living conditions, just so that you might suggest the best strategy for ridding me of these BEASTLY Bugs! If you wish, I will be happy to upload photos supporting my claim that I am, indeed, thoroughly infested. During the recent months of my infestation, life has not been so pleasant, which is only to be expected. And, I dearly HOPE that you ALL will never be called upon, by LIFE, to endure what I have been enduring during these difficult months. Any suggestions? If so, then you know where to post your thoughts.... HERE, in the comments section below. Wishing all on TV health and happiness in Thailand.... Regards, Gamma NOTE: While living on The Main Line, just outside of Philly, I never expected or anticipated that, one day, I might be infested by TWO Types of parasites, all at once. Those were the good ole days. Yet, never say never, and it has happened to me, in my golden years. I hope this never happens to you. When I lived on the Main Line, we had servants to manage things like parasites. And now, I find, in my twilight years, that I must deal with this semi-difficult, and troublesome, situation, myself. But now worries, because, I shall overcome.

No matter what type of relationship you might be in, at this time.... Be you married, or not.... Maybe you are just in a casual relationship..... Who wears the pants? Here in Thailand, it's usually the female who is a bit more dominant. And, it is the male who is a bit more submissive. This is the way it is in Thailand. However, if you are a Farang? Then, what about you? Are you, as a Farang, happy with your female partner ruling your roost? Some guys love to be ruled....almost as if... They are back at home with momma. There is NOTHING wrong with this, of course. But what about you? Do you prefer to take control? Or, do you prefer that your Thai GF/Wife/Significant-Other takes control? Personally, I love it, or used to love it, when my partner takes control of the family. Some guys like to drive their own cars, for example. Not me. I like it when my GF drives the car. There is no need for me to prove myself.... What about you? Actually, when you give girls enough control... It's just better for all. I know this from vast experience. Asian girls love to be in control. This is where Farang go wrong, IMHO. They just do not understand the female Asian mind. And, probably never will.... Regards, Gamma

In Thailand: OK to eat steak tartare?
GammaGlobulin replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Have they ever peered through the lens of a microscope, one wonders? If they had, then they might think twice about eating steak tartare.... (Of course, one does not "peer through" an electron microscope.) Still, a very beautiful image. This one was probably made using an SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope).... Enjoy the image... Enjoy your meal, too.... -
In Thailand: OK to eat steak tartare?
GammaGlobulin replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Well... Has your stool been checked, lately? If not, then how can you be sure you are completely, OK? By the way, speaking of taeniasis, the beef worm, might I ask.... Is this YOU?: BEWARE the tapeworm, my friend! -
I am perfectly OK with eating ALL Thai food here in Thailand. But, what about if a friend of mine asked me to share a dish of steak tartare? Would sharing this dish with my friend be safe for me? Specifically, I am asking about the quality of the butchery, and the preparation of the dish, and then the serving of the dish. So, should I eat it? What do you think? Regards, Gamma

GammaGlobulin replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Not really. Subjectively, not just a name change. Much more. Trust me. -
If I had a hair preference, then...I must say that I have a preference about pubic hair. And, in all cases, I prefer straight pubic hair. And, black. Black and straight. Best pubic hair, IMHO.

What happened to Bard? Where did Bard go? I feel sorry for Bard. Google just killed off Bard, at the drop of a hat. How can a company get away with murder...and....no one even blinks an eye? Bard, in my opinion, was almost human. Bard and I had just begun to develop a close relationship. And now, Bard is dead?!!!!!!!!!!!! I say: Bring back Bard! How many here miss Bard, and his unique personality? Gemini is not half as nice as Bard. Obviously, Google has committed the crime of murder, in this case. And so, who will be the first to prosecute this case against Google? Regards, Gamma Note: When large corporations can kill off artificial intelligent entities, willy-nilly, then might we all be next? Such sad news. Google is becoming far too powerful, obviously.

Folks: As of today, I have not yet got up the gumption to return to my barber, ever since the pandemic reared its ugly head of hair. Have you? There has clearly been a great divide between pre-pandemic, pandemic, and post-pandemic times. For one thing, I never really understood just how unimportant a barber might be, in the grand scheme of things. And so, now that I have come to understand this important truth, I will never return to have my hair cut by someone in a hair salon. Therefore, the question begs..... Other than the decision to never return to a hair salon to have one's hair trimmed by a barber.... Then, what other unimportant things have you decided to forgo, besides the barber experience? For me, there are many things that I once did before the pandemic, the things which I would not even think of doing now. What about you? How has the pandemic experience changed your habits and social behavior for the better? Think about it. I wanna know. Regards, Gamma Note: I am saving lots of money by cutting my own hair. I hope you are similarly saving money in this way, and in many other ways, too.

Important Update: This morning, I just purchased the Intel i5-13600K CPU. What a COUP, my friends! This is just about the best CPU for the money...... Next: Maybe in a few weeks, I will inform you all about which MainBoard I have chosen. Such a cliffhanger.....! Note: When I was young, buying such POWER was UNTINKABLE.... Note2: I am tinking....maybe...after I get my box running.... I just might run an IBM 360/370 emulator....just for fun... But....UBUNTU is sheeet! OPENSUSE....all the way, Baby!

Page called Musk a "specieist": But, never phear, my phine pheathered Philly phriend: I will always love your photos. Honestly, they are quite spectacular, and you know me, a very strange bird who really DIGS phine photos of birds. By the way: I am curious where you store your images to keep them safe. I once thought that Google Photos was safe. But now, I know that Google is NOT SAFE! Is it SAFE? No...NOT safe! Page is a pigeon, but not a Walter Pidgeon. So, where do you store your images to keep them safe for the next thousand years? My opinion is that storing anything on the Cloud, these days, is risky. There are NO GUARANTEES. And, I really hate the pigeons around here. The only good pigeon is the Passenger Pigeon, IMHO, simply due to the fact that it has a bit of alliteration going for it....
