No driving ego problem with me. If people want to drive like idiots, have at it. As long as I see you coming up behind, and you get far away from me ASAP, I'm happy. And if I know there is a speed camera up ahead, I'll get out of your way ASAP.

And I almost feel sorry for them ... what a life

The Captiva is a 7 seater, and if wee ones, easy enough to fit 10, although not enough seat belts to go around. Bit of a moot subject in this instance, and getting ejected from the car might even be a good thing with this accident. At least one of the injured is conscious enough to report why they stopped.

Knowing how to drive, and using that knowledge is 2 different things. I think most people know they shouldn't drive over the speed limit, and pay attention when driving. Doing so is a different matter, as people blow by me all the time on the highways, and I'm usually driving the limit. Anyone passing me on the highway is driving illegally & recklessly. That's when sh!t happens.

How about simply died of natural causes. Not everyone is healthy at 52. Here's a hint ... "Personal belongings, including medication, were found intact" R I P

Seems pretty clear to me. 8 people died, so far, because someone wasn't paying attention while driving at high speed. The usual cause of most accidents on major highways. SPEED KILLS, especially when you're not paying attention. R I P

GE ... China's Haier Smart Home Company is very happy then

Apples & Oranges ... Most people of Crimea don't want to be part of UA, after the coup and installed govts.

Disagree, as a youngin', smoked my fair share, on a daily basis for years, and never had withdrawal symptoms when quitting. Definitely habit forming, especially in social setting, but physical dependency with withdrawal symptoms, definitely not. To the title ... 80%, I find that very hard to believe.

Yea, I've seen YTs of that, and sorry, there ain't no sandwich that I'd pay $30 for.

Yea, most of the time, I'm walking around in short pants, since comfy. Usually just me and the dog knocking around, few people about. If going shopping or out to eat, then long pants. Never wear t-shirts any more, or when I was younger. Always a button down collar shirt, parents rules and stuck. Had a short t-shirt phase. I don't have knobby knees, and the young girls still smile at me 😉

TH tariff rate on imports https://th.usembassy.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/90/Import-Tariff-Table_Thailand-Update-June-2024.pdf

... "has expressed her commitment to women’s empowerment" ...

... "The United States has long been the largest donor for health initiatives in poor countries, accounting for almost one-quarter of all global health assistance from donors." ... ~200 countries & territories and the USA is borrowing money to give it away .... again. While US citizens are homeless and 40 million need assistance to feed their families. CUT ALL FOREIGN AID

"Do you abide by local social norms?" No, never have, never will, what ever they are anyway. Don't really pay attention or care what other people think or do.

Remember when their selling points were, it's cheaper to operate, so the savings will be passed on to you. But yet, there's monthly fees for plastic, and usage fees. Not to mention, it simply adds to inflation, if you have to pay 3% and or vendor pays 3%, then to keep their profit margin, up the prices. I'm more concerned about real 'freedoms'; speech or whatever. "you didn't get vax'd, your account is suspended" "Your Senator needs a kidney, and you have an extra, your account has been suspended" "you've been deem a social disturbance, nuisance, your account has been suspended for 2 weeks" Sort of like posting on AN

We are just outside the delivery range, literally 150m, as I see 7-11 deliver on the main rd, but won't drive up out dead end soi, a mere 150m. I don't mind though, as we don't eat out that frequent, and more to get out of the house, than to eat anything special. Would be nice if Pizza Co delivered. Although last time, again, got us out of the house and we went surfside, 5 mins away to munch the last pizza order. Semi rural, and traffic isn't an issue or dangerous. If living in a metro area, yea, i'd use quite often.

Deli thread got me thinking, so assembled a leftover sandwich; stewed beef, tomato & onion, last frozen roll, and last of thawed cheddar 😎

Won't be shopping there, or any vendor that requires cashless vs cash. Cash = Freedom. Once they go all cashless, you WILL lose any remaining freedoms you think you have.

Something TH really doesn't have. And to put out good deli sandwiches, the prices they'd need to charge would put even me off. Coming from Philly, PA, USA, it's easy to live of Hoagies, Steaks or Roast meat sandwiches & Pizza. There's a deli or pizza shop on every other corner. Most acceptable, to down right tasty.

And a lot smaller & quicker to do, though not sure that's a good thing, as surely not as "majestic". Nothing real 'world class' here in TH. https://thetruesize.com/#?borders=1~!MTI4NDQ4NzA%3D.MzI1MTAzNA%3D%3D*MTg4Njk0OTc%3D(MzAzMzA0MzU%3D~!TH*MTYwNTE4OTk%3D.MTE3Mjk4OA%3D%3D

PM sent, as don't think we're allowed to quote the source I found (BkkPost) Apparently ROI aren't worth the hassle.

I only use it to search info. I'm not going to let a computer make decisions for me. It still bases its info, on what's available, and all that, is not quite up to date. New info contradicts quite a lot of old info. Especially when it comes to health issues.

Must be Easter week, revived from the dead. 19+k posts ... mind boggleing. Me ... NO, I don't believe in invisible friends or gods.

Obviously he has no respect for the law, and is a menace to society. So yea, keep him incarcerated as long as possible. Anyone with loved ones, would want the man kept as far away for them as possible .... jail works for me.
