  1. Where were your dental implants made, if you have them? What about dental tools used by your dentist? Will you tell your dentist that you will allow her to use ONLY tools not manufactured in the USA? What about if there was a medical prosthesis that would save your life? But then, you realized that it was manufactured in the USA...would you... REFUSE IT?
  2. You would have done MUCH better to choose TWO AC machines of smaller size, rather than one much larger unit. Again, the reason for this is increased energy efficiency. Just my two cents, and also another valid point of mine.
  3. Another ridiculous assumption I use my workshop I am happy to here this, at least.
  4. It is not only the volume or sound level that is important. One other crucial factor is the controlability of the noise. Noise that cannot be escaped/avoided, or is unexpected, or random, causes more stress to the individual. One wonders if the true impact of increasing noise intrusion into our lives has yet been well understood. Perhaps, without the noise, even metrics such as levels of immune-system response might be far higher. If constant noise, and increased noise, and random noise does cause a depressed immune-system response..then... My next question is whether there is any correlation between living in a very noisy environment and cancer rates.... heart disease, etc. For sure there is a correlation between noise and certain apparent learning disabilities. Further investigation is needed.
  5. This is why I stay inside my house with the ACs going 24/7, and rarely leave my compound, which I keep free of debris. I have no need for window screens, just because I never open my windows. Also, my bedroom window is completely boarded up and sealed against the dust here, with PM2.5 rising at the moment. I have no problems with mosquitoes invading my house.. If I wish to sit outside on my veranda, I just use a couple of fans. The increase airflow prevents mosquitoes from landing. These bugs can't land in wind.
  6. You mean you weld in your bedroom?
  7. Well, I would make the observation that the AC you are using is WAY oversized or extremely inefficient. With less than 2000 watts, going full blast, my AC has an output of 24,000 BTU. I would suggest you check the specs on your AC and report back to us. The SEER rating on the machine I chose is over 23. Better check. ============== For Thailand's climate, the AC is better, at least for my needs. I maintain the indoor temperature at about 21-degrees C, throughout the year. ============== Having a dehumidifier cycling on and off would drive me crazy. But then, it probably does not require much to drive me over the edge.
  8. Rarely. And with good reason. Who's to say that I might not also meet up with some crazy Iranian wielding a syringe?
  9. 9 or 10, maybe. But do not overdo it.
  10. Without exception, almost everywhere I look.
  11. I think it is due to Personality Disorder, which we know is rampant among the western visitors who are here, short time. If they are able to last in Asia for over 45 years, then we can safely say that they are OK.
  12. All Farang look scary. Don't get near them. Don't take the risk. Discretion is the better part of valor.
  13. Radically Reduced world consumption of material things will be very good for slowing Global Warming. Who says that Trump does not care about the future of humanity?
  14. Must be something new. Also, I have been in Asia since 1970s. There is a lot I don't know about airlines. I have not flown since 2015. I think Domestic Airlines in Taiwan had no such rule, two decades ago. Anyway, back in the day, very pregnant women were welcomed on Taiwan Buses at any stage of development. If they could climb the first step into the bus, then they were Good To Go.
  15. Lilies....and Lily: MEATY BEATY BIG BOUNCY Obviously.
  16. I think it is the same everywhere the medical industry can make money off the dying.
  17. Why don't more of these people just head for Florida? There is much more to do in Florida. Florida is a very cool place, with hundreds of miles of beaches. And, the women there hardly wear anything on them.
  18. What about if the child has not been born yet, but almost born?
  19. That's right. When terminally ill, and on your last legs...you become a... CASH COW to the medial industry in the USA.
  20. You could always go on a CRASH-BIG-MAC diet and UP YOUR GAME....if you like. If you can beat them, then just join them.
  21. It looks as if he is just another YOUTUBER: You can see that he has moved a table out onto the balcony, in order to hold his computer, so that he can... Do his video editing work, before uploading to YT. Also, probably just a bit of disorientation due to minor sunstroke, or heat exhaustion.
