  1. At this point, not really. There's nothing outside my '15 min city' that I need, or that isn't sourced in Thailand, or even PKK province. Plenty of local food grown, and surf is walking distance for protein and even drinking water, if needed. Easy enough to desalinate, though we have 12 X 2000 L water tanks. Don't think we'll ever be without water. There's nothing outside of the village, 'downtown', province or TH that we need. And we haven't even utilized the other two lots for anything. Just an investment, and wife only has a few flowering plants on them. We grow a few things, we can't eat fast enough, so give to neighbor, who does the same with us. It's just a hobby for both of us, and far from using the lots' potential for growing things. If one of us had chickens, we wouldn't even have to go to the market Actually surprised how easy it would be to be completely independent, if ever needed to be. No winter here, so a small farming village, would be easy to live year round, without any outside assistance. My other neighbor is raising some beef, cows. All we need is a pig farmer, hopefully, further down the road
  2. I think you missed the 'prepper' , self self sufficient part. If all hell broke loose, I don't care. World's overpopulated. Live with their choices. Every country should try to strive to be self sufficient anyway. At least feed and energize themselves. Part of what is wrong with today. To many people depend on other, thus making it easy to 'control' people. Keep them in the dark and feed 'em <deleted>. Humans got the brains of a mushroom
  3. Simply motion filed to dismiss. That would be sad if approved. A system that makes laws, that don't apply to the law makers or enforcers of.
  4. Be a prepper, as the 'end is near'. OK, probably not, and a good thing. But if 'prepping', purposely or not, man, you can save a lot of money. No or little electric & water bill. No petrol bill. Fresh organic fruits & veggies. Even eggs & chickens if putting in a wee more effort. Move to a country with no RE or Income tax. Only a fair, across the board VAT. We don't need no stinkin' 1st world country
  5. "Residents were left stunned" I find that hard to believe, as it seems to be a daily occurrence of late
  6. So back to 'law don't apply to everyone' ... definitely something wrong with a system that makes laws, that doing apply to the law makers or enforcers of. UP THE REVOLUTION
  7. "Noticeable more when coughing or sneezing" Ms Google tells me that's actually a thing, 'primary or secondary coughing headaches'. Will pass (primary) to caused (secondary) by minor things, simple dehydration to major things, brain tumors. Pretty wide range of causes. Obviously if continues, especially if worsening, back to a GP to get referred to a specialist, or even a head CT scan, and take a peek at things, I'd think. Somewhere in between to sort it out. Good luck, hopefully it will just pass.
  8. No, as that depends where they enter. If entering at a legal immigration point vs getting caught entering illegally.
  9. That is different from reports the judge instructed, even escorted, the criminal & lawyer to exit through a jury door to avoid arrest. Unless you are implying the FBI falsified her arrest statement. Or even sillier, ICE let them walk out the front door while walking past them From 'left leaning' NYT ...
  10. Oops ... well that should have never happened. What's with the 'search & rescue' ? Did a few cadets jump overboard to avoid falling debris ? Since sailors, one would expect they know how to swim. 147 foot mast, usually doesn't fit under a 127 foot 'low tide' clearance of the Brooklyn bridge
  11. If you are on Win 10 now, like myself, you get constant reminders that support will end, and to upgrade to 11. With clickable link to do just that. I won't be 'down grading' my free features by upgrading to 11. If you stay off sketchy sites, you shouldn't have any issues. Or, simply use a non Windows security app after support expires. I used to be a Trend fan, years ago, when Windows security sucked. Much improved and can't remember last time I had Trend. A couple version of Windows ago. There's always a few free security apps available. Better than none, if you think you need one.
  12. Wow, tourist numbers drop at the end of high season and beginning of raining season, how's that possible So strange that has happened every year, thankfully. Why we play tourist mostly during rainy season, as almost everything is better without tourist. Reads more like TAT is trying to up their budget.
  13. correct, and exactly how Ms Google defines it also ... ... "In the context of immigration, "undocumented immigrant" and "illegal alien" are essentially used interchangeably to describe individuals who are not legally authorized to reside in the United States. Undocumented Immigrant: This term refers to individuals living in the U.S. without valid visas or immigration documents, meaning they lack legal immigration status" ... They are criminals. As soon as the cross the border without going through normal check point, they are criminals. They may get deported immediately, or released with a court date, to have their case heard. Don't show up for that court date and a warrant is issued for your arrest. Or in this case, commit a crime and don't show for that court date (jump bail) and a warrant is issued, and or deportation order.
  14. Nobody goes to selection. They have a lottery, a number is assigned to you birthday. You don't need to do anything, to dodge anything, you're not expected to be picked for. How you all can't comprehend that is mind boggling. Y'all are quite silly. May want to deal with facts. Not fake news. I see the internet (CNN 🙄) states in op-ed, he received 4 deferments for collage, (as everyone did), which is completely irrelevant. As he graduated college before his number was even drawn. Why even mention it ??? Graduated May 1968, you need to be at college to be deferred for college. SS draft # drawn 1970 He had # 356, they drafted up to 195 ... END OF DISCUSSION So daughter of foot doc, at age 6 or 7, in 1968/69, tells the tale of father's hearsay, that he did a favor for Trump, about 50 yrs after the fact .... Wonder how much she got paid for that story, so Steve Elder of NYT could report it, just before the 2016 election hmm Think it's safe to say, we can file that next to the Steele Dossier. Accusing someone of dodging something that didn't need to be dodged. Do y'all know how silly that sounds. 'Hey dude, I beat that traffic ticket' .... 'that's cool, what was the ticket for?' 'I never got one' 😎 Let that sink in, take as long as you need. Don't hurt yourselves. BYE BYE
  15. Wife out did herself, an excellent Beef Massaman 👍 Think she's trying to take away my reasons for heading O&A southward. Add this to things not to order in restaurants, all things beef, Yank Brekkie, and any type of sandwich.
  16. NYT ... So you also have no clue how the selective service draft numbers work in the USA. Have a nice day.
  17. I don't buy ribeye, as I buy larger pieces of beef (Harvey from AU) at Makro, and cut the steaks myself. Prefer ~2" thick steaks, which packaged steaks are not. Usually get a large tenderloin, or sirloin, and cut steaks off that. Ground the scraps for burger. When low on Beef Tallow, I'll get a Picanha, and render down all the fat. Good for cooking all the beef in, as Tenderloin & Sirloin are lean cuts. Don't want to buy large ribeye, as may be a not so good one, too much fat. Not that I've seen any on offer. Need to ask Makro when Harvey stock arrives, as good pieces don't last long. 2-4 kg pieces, so a freezer comes in handy.
  18. Europe & E. Asia would have been toast without USSR (Russia) ... hope they got most of the recognition and accolated on the day. Without the USSR, German & Japanese occupation would have lasted so much longer. Well at least German. Japan through in the towel after they got spanked 2X, although the end was inevitable at that point, as beat on the mainland, and losing islands fast. Only question was how many civilians was Japan willing to sacrifice to continue on. Amazing the ignorance shown by some folks about WW2. Hint: the movies were propaganda, very far from reality. USSR was your savior, not the USA, or yourselves. Hitler's biggest mistake, engaging war with USSR.
  19. Not at all. You are just ignorant to the 'fact' that he didn't have to serve, and would have never been drafted with such a high selective service number. Or did you simply ignore that fact, or not comprehend my post ? Let me know, as I can explain it to you if necessary. You might want to google 'ad hominem' also, along with pot & kettle references.
  20. Pres. Donald Trump had a draft # of 356, out of 365. He didn't have to dodge anything, as had a snowball's chance in hell of being drafted. Stop reading 'fake news', as it makes you come off like an idiot
  21. Sorry, don't know everyone that served, or was dumb enough to enlist. Are you a Yank of age, and did you enlist during the Nam war ? I signed up for the draft, after the war was over ... Probably irrelevant, as had a SS card. Brother enlisted in the AF, to avoid the draft to the Army. Wasn't stationed in Nam, did a UK tour. I was a mere 18 months younger than him, and war still going when I was 18. Still drafting people when I was 20 yrs old, then draft ended June 1973.
  22. Correct, it's your opinion, which just happens to be wrong. So wrong it's silly to even suggest the dodged he draft.
  23. Dying for no reason, is not serving your country. And he didn't 'dodge' anything. Stop with the false narratives.
  24. Just how is he a coward ? Because he didn't volunteer to go fight in an unjust war that most would agree was one of the USA's biggest military mistakes since WW2, at the time. Waste of millions of lives, including almost 60k American soldiers killed, and 1000's more soldiers & famly's lives ruined. Seems like an intelligent move to me. Know many that made the mistake of not taking a holiday to Canada till over. From my small hometown alone ...
