  1. I recall well both versions. I just forget which was which, and only knew that one was superior to the other, and one also longer than the other.
  2. Yes. I bought from Robinsons. Very comfortable. But, I found that they do not wear well when machine washed. One top sheet was about Bt.3000. I believe these are overpriced, but not sure.
  3. Free shipping? No import tax? No shipping delay? These are three reasons I never order from Amazon USA. When in China, I used Amazon China, until, as I mentioned, it stopped its operations there. I would happily use Amazon USA if I were in the US. If Amazon can provide free shipping to Thailand, with no import duty, and get here in one week, than I will buy a lot from Amazon. Tomorrow.
  4. 100 PERCENT cotton is what you need. I do not use sheets that are purchased by most Chinese or Thai consumers.
  5. Sleep like a Thai. Sleep on bare hardwood floor. No need for bed. If no bed,... No need bedsheets. No need to wash sheets. If no sheets. No need for washing machine. No need for clothes dryer. Why sheets expensive? Only Farang need sheets. Sheets a luxury.
  6. The only solution that I have found is to use good headphones, over the ear phones, and then listen to Herbert Von Karajan's Brandenburg. This is a two-CD recording. Plenty of bass from this recording, and enough to drown out almost anything you might come up against in Thailand, including monk chanting, temple drums, and almost anything. There is no Thai music, and no Thai temple chanting, that can stand up to the Austro-Hungarian, H. von Karajan.
  7. One should never feel embarrassed to drive a Rolls-Royce Corniche...unless...it might be....a FAKE Rolls.
  8. No one cares about what, specifically?
  9. No. We didn't have jazz music in Philly when I was young.
  10. No, not a fail. Have you ever heard of: Go/No Go gauge? Think about it. This happened to me.
  11. Just as soon as Xi exits, stage left! China is such an amazing country. I love China. However, I am unable to live under a Marxist-Leninist regime. (Even with clean sheets.)
  12. As I told you.... So.... I guess buying sheets from Amazon in China is....as I had originally thought....probably.... Not feasible any longer. But, it seems that the reports about Amazon China are conflicted.
  13. Yes. Amazon China is actually quite good, I think.
  14. My Fellow Insomniacs: There is just nothing like high quality sheets. During the past 10 years in Thailand, I have been searching for high-quality bed linen at the right price. I must have 100-percent cotton. So far, after over 10 years, I have not found what I have been looking for. Years ago, I bought sheets from China, from Amazon China, which were OK. However, soon after I purchased the sheets, Amazon China went out of business, as far as I know. I am not cheap when it comes to sourcing sheets! Here, for example, is the type of bedsheet that I would gladly buy, if only I could find the same thing in Thailand.... After over a decade in Thailand, I am very satisfied on most fronts, but I am just dissatisfied with the lack of availability of bedsheets here where I am. Also, as everyone knows, I am NOT the ONLY one suffering .... The sheets I have found for sale on Lazada are just not of the quality that I am used to. What to do? I do not know. Over 10 years, and still looking.... If anyone has a link on Lazada for bedsheets that are higher quality and 100 percent cotton....then please post a photo, or two. Thank you. Regards, Gamma Note: I guess you guys know, by now, that I intend to chuck all my linen and bedding, including my pillows and mattress...due to my scabies infestation. This chucking of my bedding will happen this week, maybe about 12 hours before I go to RAM to get treated..... Note2: I look forward to sleeping the sleep of the dead, soon, after replacing all my bedding...and....it will be heaven! ========= Sorry for the misinformation about Amazon China.... Amazon China is still alive, I see.... I purchased bedsheets from Amazon China in the past, when I lived in ChengDu...and....I was quite satisfied with the price and quality.
  15. Which reminds me.... I had a friend in HK who loved the Corniche.... He had several.... Good friends with the commies, too!
  16. I guess that you do not understand that it would be GAME OVER for any country that attacked and sunk a US carrier. Otherwise, US carriers are still useful....
  17. Long time ago...I recall there were two versions....
  18. Sometimes, when the snorkel gets stopped up, or water leaks into the snorkel, then one can drown. Some people don't know how to easily clear the snorkel of water with one strong puff of air.
  19. I am fluent in HanYu, GuoYu, ZhongWen, PuTongHua, etc.... The more Chinese the better.
  20. Even Chomsky loves American might. I am with Noam.
  21. Looks like a log floating in the water....maybe....
  22. Instead of ingesting orally, might I suggest using these tablets as a suppository? How could you get a runny nose if you take them from the back side? Or, are you snorting them? NO WAY does Centrum vitamins affect me with a runny nose, no matter how I take them.
  23. I am proud to be an American! I love the fact that almost everyone around the world loves American fighting machines, particularly the American aircraft carriers and the American subs, some of which Australia will soon buy. I am an AMERICAN! Everybody would like to be an American....I guess.... What about you? I am proud to be an American.... Don't you wish you were....too? Yes? No? Why? Regards, Gamma Globulin Note: I still recall the days when Top Gun was playing everywhere in Taiwan. Eat your hearts out, guys, just because you cannot, too, be AN AMERICAN...... Note2: Also, what about the film, American Psycho? Great Film, and Only in America! NOTE THREE: Personally, I am thankful that American Aircraft Carriers are nearby. American might provides an umbrella to keep trade open, providing the world with a more stable environment to conduct international trade, which affects us all in a positive way. When unfettered trade is threatened, we all suffer, just as we learned the hard way, during the pandemic years.
