Just had 1st meal, pork & veggie soup. Along with a few pieces of Sushi. Tacos later, as just made the tortilla. Made the salsa yesterday. Must be Taco Tu ... oops ... Mexican Monday

They could easily fall under 'user error' A fire in an ebike shop. ... did it have anything to do with the ebikes ... were they charging, left unattended (user error) ... how many plugged in, if charging, and could the wiring handle it (user error) Same applies to non commercial owners with ebikes indoors. If an ebike, EV doesn't simply spontaneously combust, for not apparent reason, then they are no more dangerous than any other product misused or mishandled. Common sense rules

One dominant, common quality in harris introductions to speak ... ... she's a woman & ... she's black ... will fight for 'her' people 13% of population, and the other 87% ??? ... Just think if they introduced Trump as ... ... a man ... and white And they call him the sexist and racist 😎

Nice clutch ... hope you have a nice pair of pumps to go with that 😎

@edwinchester Damn, you rack up some kms. I was doing 70+ kms when at Udon Thani, and thought that was a lot, for the same, school run alone, 6 days a week. Turns into one of your most expensive monthly bills, right there with electric. If owning both house & car, then solar really does cut quite a bit of the monthly expenses. Better spent elsewhere I'll never understand why people buy ICEV now or in the future. Guess they just enjoy throwing money away for an under performing vehicle. Can only advise anyone in the market for a new car, or want to upgrade, test drive an EV, lease one for a few days or a week. Pretty sure you won't be buying an ICEV next time at the dealers. Happy Motoring

And when the bands done playing, the people start leaving, without staying to hear anything she says ... Better news sources = better information Wisconsin performer - Don Iver (not harris) Atlanta performer - Megan Three Stallion (not harris) I remember a free concert, headliner, James Taylor (1980). Oh yea, John Anderson showed up for about 2 minutes before the show. I remember his all inspiring talk, and went something like this ... "I'll be short, as you didn't come here to see me, don't forget to vote ... and now, James Taylor" James Taylor had a few nice words, but importantly, emphasized the need for more than a 2 party system ... then put on an excellent free show.

Why & where where I go anywhere ? If the world went to sh!t, I have water, food, energy right here. Everything I need. Leaving and I wouldn't have any of that guaranteed any place else, as I'd be dependent on others or govt to supply. They've failed miserably at that in that past.

Thanks, as always, you're entertaining

Classic, and remembers this some 60 yrs later, of a nobody at the time. She wouldn't be registered dem, would she ? Quick check, both daughters are dem ... More distractions from the left media. When are they going to start talking and asking about the economy, the open border, the infrastructure, the debt, and continued borrowing to give it away to foreign countries.

Think you'd better place me on yours. As I only have 2 on that list. You might actually post something of value, and I'd hate to miss it. I've gotten good at ignoring 'people'. Did take a lot of will power. Besides, some are good for comic relief every now & then. As this was, hence the chuckle you have

Think I've had DD for 3 or 4 years now, and they are consistent, arrive on the 3rd of the month. Never an issue or delay, even if and during any govt shutdown, as those programs are on auto pilot, and unaffected. Comes directly from the Fed Reserve, which the BBL/BkkBank uses the info for you 'Credit Advise', and one of the docs you need. Allow at least one week for paper work process at bank. Best if your extension / visa date is near the end of the money, and oops, and you have couple weeks to correct. Really is too easy & convenient.

If can find old CH stock, I think they are 409k. My opinion of Celerio, has changed drastically after that post. And as stated, the Celerio AT was about same price as the Neta V. More reading about the Celerio, and it really is a 'get what you pay for' car / POS. As stated. it did look a lot nicer than I expected, and much improved over earlier models. At the time, if that's all you could afford and need a car, guess it would work. I would buy any JP badged car made in TH. And the starting & top end prices are just silly. Only owned the Vios s & Mazda2, as cheap, ~550k, and could sell fast & cheap, walking away with little regret. Once decided to stay in TH, bought what I actually wanted, MG ZS, and major upgrade for basically pocket change more.

TBH, if I had to pay the fares they asked, and sit in the back, I'd never had flown on a plane. First 3 airlines I worked for, flights were free, I think, and next to it. Last airlines, NWA, it was $10 or $20 for 1st class, one way. International flights, <$200 for 1st class R/T. Yea, I used the hell out of those bennies. Especially the last 10 ish years working for NWA, as usually only worked 2 days a week, and able to take weeks off at a time. They had very lacks work rules, and even those got bent.

2023 ... I wouldn't mind seeing a breakdown of those, and guessing, many, like the OP, were user error. All the abuse I put my LiPo s (lithium batteries) through, I've yet to have an oops with them. From overcharging, overheating, to crashing/hard impacts, and they just keep on ticking, after a massive kicking.

The Dinosaurs didn't evolve either, look what happen to them

Break dancing is now a sport at the olympics ? No wonder I stopped watching decades ago. Watching someone have an epileptic fit on a mat, isn't entertainment or a sport. What next, pole dancing 😎 Not sure I stopped watching because of all the doping, or professionals were allowed to compete. Or simply realized it was just another divisive distraction to advance nationalism. I'm amazed people still watch and it's profitable to even put the games on. They're getting more embarrassing with every new olympics.

If you buy another POS of Nssan's, I believe comes along with that nice buyback. Lot of that buyback revolved around the POS Leaf from days past. Kudos for them acknowledging their POS, and at least trying to compensate folks. Better than most auto makers 👍👍

Only an idiot goes by what the salesperson says. Depends how much I'm spending, but I want to see it in writing if I can dispose of it without regret.

Never said 'don't fly again', just that you may not want to, in the back of the bus, after you realize, you deserve the comforts you may not be able to afford all the time after flying 1st Class. One trip in comfort instead of 10 in the sardine can, for too many hours, may not be an easy adjustment for many. Especially the sex tourist, as would limit their smile factor. 17 yrs working for airlines, and I'm traveled out, as I used the hell out of them flight bennys. Every month, every other week, every week, I was going somewhere. Alternative ... when not working for the airlines, I explored locally, or a bit further. USA is a big place, and almost impossible to see it all in one lifetime. Though I hung out along the Caribbean beaches & islands mostly. Locally, USA, PA (home state), NJ, NY, MD, DE, all stone's throw away. Lived in MI, FL, TN, so some intense exploring there. Be amazed what's available locally if not seeking it out. TH, it's a bit small, so actually winding down on my O&A after almost 24 years. Still find some interesting things, more like nice journeys & views. Destination leave a bit to be desired of late, except Krung Thep, as always something going on there, though the congestion is a bit of a turn off. I don't see the desire / attraction of repeat holidays in TH, when many people never really explored locally. And those that think Patts, Phuket, Ao Nang, CM or Hua Hin is all TH has to offer or been to, are missing a lot. Especially if they only travel during smog season. Still a lot of National Parks in USA I never made it to, along with a few states. Alaska for one, would be first stop if ever returned to for a visit. Guess everything is location and finance dependent.

You can't change the climate, or stop the climate. MMCC is a marketing tool for businesses for profits, and govt for tax revenue. Human impact of the climate is so minute, it's not worth mentioning. None of the science is based on facts IMHO, just a bunch of paid scientist/lobbyist for the bottom line.

If actually interested in buying an EV or MG, I would assume said customer would actually enter a dealer & ask. Goes for all and any warranty for any vehicle. I know I have and do, and know exactly what is covered or not before buying. That uncommon common sense of better research = happy customer.

USA Soc Sec in not taxable, per tax treaty for USA citizen. I believe all govt issued pension, ex: military are also exempt ... BUT ... don't quote me, due diligence on your part required if receiving. Company pensions, I'm pretty sure are considered income, and taxable. Although, if looking at the TH Tax rate & exemptions, if married, they do cover quite a lot, and I think IF I had to pay a tax (I don't) I figured I had something like 670k baht worth of exempt income (if married w/kid), and 120k I think is exempt/below taxable income (?), so that wouldn't leave much to be taxed. Depending how much you bring in. Having direct deposit is quite convenient, and also gives you your paperwork with ease at extension time. No need to go through NY or USA brank, as SS will deposit straight to TH bank account. I use BBL/BkkBank.
