  1. @ikke1959 Location ?
  2. Breyers used to be a premium product back in the day. But, sold out to the conglomerates, who really screwed it up. From Wiki ... "History: Breyer ice cream truck, c. 1915 In 1866, William A. Breyer began to produce and sell iced cream in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 👍 first from his home, and later via horse and wagon on the streets. Breyer's son Henry incorporated the business in 1908. The formerly independent Breyer Ice Cream Company was sold to the National Dairy Products Corporation/Sealtest in 1926.[3] National Dairy then changed its name to Kraftco in 1968, and Kraft by 1975. Kraft sold its ice cream brands to Unilever in 1993, while retaining the rights to the name for yogurt products. Ice cream[edit] Prior to 2006,[5] Breyers was known for producing ice cream with a small number of all-natural ingredients. In recent years,[when?] as part of cost-cutting measures since their move from Green Bay, Wisconsin, to Unilever's U.S. headquarters in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey,[6] Unilever has reformulated many of its flavors with nontraditional, additive ingredients, significantly changing the taste and texture of their desserts as a result." 😲
  3. Labor seems a bit high, not sure about the roof panels. Not understanding the difficulty of getting panes on the roof. We used BlueScope rolled steel, and they are extremely light. Use the thickest insulated ones, along with rolls of ceiling insulation (R+37/38) and the ceiling (dry wall/gypsum board) is cool as cucumber, on the hottest days.
  4. Holy crap ... guess mine will be even more, since I have a 'BIG BIKE'
  5. Agree, and will use LAZ as first choice. If using LAZMALL vendor, will refund item when picked up, before it even makes it back to the warehouse. Just got an instant refund notice to 'LAZ Wallet' last week, on 2 parcels/3 items returned, before the driver made it out of the soi
  6. COD for us, avoids any issues ... ... not received (never happened though) ... damaged on arrive (happened once, but not obvious, refunded) ... no wait for refund, though TBH, easy enough ... not a problem being here, as no schedule and tracking lets you know the day it will arrive ... one 'flash & kerry' driver knows us so well, that if not here, leaves parcel (s), and rings/msg the wife, to transfer funds, if she missed the initial call.
  7. You have to ask .. ... fresh air ... blue, clear or overcast skies, anything better than polluted haze ... everything green again, instead of dusty & crunchy ... lakes & ponds have water ... maybe some good boomers & a lightshow
  8. I never care what people think, and certainly not trying to impress strangers. Ugly ... subjective. Way too cool and looks like something from 'Lost is Space'. Me & Sniffy the Wonder Dog, cruising surfside ... oh yea. Windows down, blasting "Who Let the Dogs Out" or "Fly Like and Eagle" ... smoking a doobie ROCK ON
  9. Too silly priced in TH.
  10. Gelato is good, if same chain that was here / TH. Tasty stuff
  11. Stated already, newer BEV don't need cobalt, and like ours, are using LFP chemistry. Your phone, laptop and other battery operated electronics are probably still using though. Hypocrisy - the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behavior does not conform.
  12. Swensen's ... nuff said
  13. Agree, and that why we have air purifiers. Keeps it in low single digits, if not -0-. Now, AQI 49 & PM2.5 @ 19 or ~4X healthy.
  14. I think they are doing the same here, getting in as much burning as they can. Hills in the distance are a blur, and AQI is in the 70s About a month or so ago, I thought it was all over, as a week of AQI 25-50. We even waited for a non windy day to burn all our saved up trash, and all of 1 wheel barrel full Lite rain in the forecast next week, 50% chance, but I doubt it. Amphur could use some water though, and it's a trickle coming out of the faucet during the day. Seems to be restricted from 0900 - 1800 hrs. Had to use the water tanks the past couple days, during the day.
  15. I'm finding that hard to believe. As when my daughter had an acne problem, that the skin clinics couldn't or wouldn't clear up, actually getting worse, in a year. I put her on birth control, a couple skin ointments, and an antibody for about 6 weeks, and cleared it all up. The birth control did the complete opposite of what you are implying, and balanced her hormones. Probably the largest factor causing the acne. Do agree, some woman can't take the pill, or possible didn't try different ones. Or other non pill options. If your sex habits are high risk of pregnancy, maybe you should adapt, and ease up on the intercourse. Your body, your choice ... your choice to be responsible, or deal with the consequences.
  16. Thanks, but not on a budget, just a thrifty shopper. Already have our silly priced, shy of ฿!M BEV. Not really a car person, so 1M for for 4 wheels is crazy. But it is what it is. And will eventually pay for itself long term. I really like the Wuling, wish it was better priced or better spec'd. Great for my very local driving. Actually like this better, but not available here.
  17. Yep ... especially if money involved. After I threw the 1st wife out of the house, she got a silly offer to sell, and they asked me to sign off my usufruct. I said no, since not splitting with me, and would buy me out, for what I spent. Nice break even & I'd be done. I was looking over my shoulder for a while
  18. No way could I ever live there. Udon Thani was bad enough, and at worst, was just 100-150 AQI range. Here/PKK, and only a couple months, if that, hit's or breaks 100 AQI.
  19. Only $113k About the cost of our land, house (w/greenhouse garden). w/ solar system, and our EV. Very nice, but some of us poor folks live in the real world. Note to self: don't put Champaign class on hood. And that's the price in China. ... "Nio ET9 start preorders for 112,800 USD, deliveries set to early 2025"
  20. Along with trucks sitting higher than most salon / hatchback cars, sub compact, compact cars
  21. Thanks, more of a minor surgery than I thought. THANKS
  22. A new twist to the dangers of jaywalking. Follow the rules & laws, and sh!t usually doesn't happen. Overpass walkway wasn't that far away.
  23. Was that done at govt or private hosp ? 270k for surgery seems quite reasonable.
  24. I don't even think he's in TH. Just another foreigner that thinks their existence, if in TH, is relevant, and supporting all Thai society
