Agree, not a major touristy event, except maybe ChinaTown. Although, it is certainly observed by way more folks than I thought. Yesterday Makro was packed, and I do mean packed. Never seen it that crowded, Check out was almost looking like Lotus's & Big C 3 or 4 deep instead of just me. Veggie scale had a Q of 5, non stop. Meat section 2 deep, trying to view the wares, 5 deep at the scale.. Chinese heritage runs deep in TH. And we're in Nakhon NoWhere Resembled Xmas shopping in USA.

The responses of announcing a simple interview of Putin by the RU haters/bashers is all a bit telling. Does explain how good the MSM propaganda machine is, how ignorant people are, and why the world is in the state that it is ... or told that it is. Rather embarrassing actually The planet certainly has nothing to worry about, as humans will do themselves in before the next century, if not the next decade or 2. Som naa na Why I'm anti-social and fairly self sufficient

Nothing 'groundbreaking' about that, as been talked and kicked about for at least the last 10 years.

well spotted ... Note to self: proofread you idiot. On invading ... something most countries have done, in the past, and more than a few in the 21st Century. Putin would have a hard time matching the death, misery and displacement of citizens that the US/UK/NATO has caused in the last 23 yrs, invading sovereign countries for no reason ... IMHO In that aspect, I guess you could say, he's simply following their lead. What's good for them to is just fine for him to do. At least in his mind, he's saving ex-Russians that want to be saved, and undoing the regime change of the UA place in power by foreign interests .. IMHO

I lost respect for the SCOTUS during Obama's administration via ACA ruling. Haven't really followed any state or fed court decisions on Trump's cases.

Sit corrected, our local Makro does on Natto, 2 brands, though very limited supply, in the freezer case. Only picked up one 3 serving pack @ ฿70, the other was ฿75. Both a different brand for the ones I ordered from LAZ, which haven't arrived. Wanting to sample a couple store bought, before making my own, from both store bought, ready to eat packaged Natto vs making from spores, ordered, and yet to arrive also. Another topic ... has anyone used Golden Curry products, as Makro had this item (1 kg @ ฿335), and actually cheaper than what's available online: TIA for any thoughts, pro or con, but YT tells me it's the popular brand in Japan.

From what I understand, reading the bias, slanted news (both sides0 and my own enlightening research of the RU/UA situation, I have to agree with most of Putin's decisions and handling of UA; Crimea, Donbas and other areas. Not really going to debate those thoughts, as really don't like repeating everything else I posted on the subject. On Topic ... talking is always better than not talking. I've watched Putin speaking a few times, and he always seemed rational and mad complete sense to me.

And yet, no new wars during his administration, along with setting a timeline to get the hell out of Afghanistan, which Biden totally screwed up. Gave a spanking to Syria, to prevent future attacks, and that was about it. Unlike every other administration in the 21st century, doing nothing but promoting and or supporting conflicts. If you're not talking to people, then you'll be fighting them. Why MSM & the war machine is against talking. Just imagine actually solving problems when talking .. all those profits .... GONE

If it has 3 roots, it may take 3 visits. Depends on the infection (if so), the tooth and the dentist. I had a single root incisor, took 2 visits. A molar will usually take at least 2 visits, since 2 or 3 roots.

Why is talking to someone considered supporting them. Talking is how you avoid wars. Barbara Walters talked to Castro, does that mean she supported him? Frost to Nixon, and so on. Trump to Kin Jong Un or any of the other world leaders (all of NATO) he disagreed with, does that mean he supports them, or Mexico's Nieto. If Hitler was still alive, or if they found him in S. America, journalist would be lining up to talk to him. Anyone stating someone supports someone simply by talking to them is part of the propaganda problem, and simply pushing divisiveness. I'm talking to you, do that mean I support your silly statement ?

At rest, its about 120/65 +/- 5. Unstressed <130/75 +/- 5 Stressed 150/80 and UP, depending, then recovers to the normal #s above, at 15 & 30 mins later. Don't think there is a perfect BP. Mine has been as low as 110/55, and I'd say average 2 yrs ago was in the 145-135/90-70. I made some adjustments to diet & being less sedentary, maybe, the past 1.5 yrs.

Far from it, but I know a good value when I see & eat one. I've also bought lump & claw meat, actually the whole crab, picked at Central Markets, @ 600 baht a kg (if memory serves), and some time ago. Don't offer any more, or haven't seen lately, but damn tasty. Expensive little treat, but well worth it for me. Better offerings than the food court My daughter found some the other day, and the little bi-atch just had to send me a snap of. Decent price also. Didn't state that did I ? I stated I like my eggs loose, so yes, my omelet would taste better to me. Other may like their eggs overcooked. Think French omelet, and have you ever seen one with an egg crust ? Taste is preferential, so experts/food critics, don't really mean anything to me. I've disagreed, and agreed with many. Nothing but an opinion, and not based on science. Lump crab meat, along with the claw is pretty much what most people prefer. Did you look at the photo ? Nothing snobbery about that, just mine and most other's preference, I think. Stand to be corrected ... is their anyone here who would not prefer lump and claw meat of the crab over ... the pickins ? Think I've eaten enough crab meat to know what I'm talking about.

1. No, but your ignorance wouldn't show if you knew 2. I knew what OP meant, having used 'phasa Thai' many times while speaking to Thais. Lack of the 'h' isn't going to throw off anyone who knows Thai, different transliteration or not. 3. Now you're just being silly Knew it was 'language', so simply used Gtranslate (typing English to Thai translation) to get the Thai script and their version of transliteration they use. Thought it might be helpful to others.

Aug 2022 .... "carrier has spent more time in dry dock than at sea" Launched 21 December 2017 ... 6 yrs of service, and only half that time at sea, maybe, or a bit more. Sell or mothball both of them, and save the taxpayers a lot of money. Cancel the freakin F35s also, and take care of your citizens at home.

Kefir is sort of like yogurt, but much better, drinking wise. Though it thickens up quite a bit when chilled. Kefir just has so much more goodness in it. Yield about 3-4 cups from it over night, and enough for wife & myself's daily intake.

And yet, somehow I've eaten the same omelet and only been charged 60 baht ... That's the difference between actual personal experiences, and BS from people who haven't a clue what they are posting ... That's the best looking & tasting fake crabmeat I ever had They don't buy crabmeat, they catch it themselves. Funny how some fishing folks do that when they live surfside with their boats.

You conveniently left out 1967 ... 'Six Day War' Where Israel was the aggressor, and even tried to sink the USS Liberty when they got caught being so, as against the US policy to supply 'defensive' military aid. And why I will never accept israil as a trusted ally. Killing those that supported you, just doesn't sit right with me, and why I hate ALL FOREIGN AID.

hmm ... you want to be the kettle or the pot Hypocrisy - the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behavior does not conform.

I don't think boats are allowed in the bay any more, and have to enter via the other side at Loh Samay Bay.

I only got here a few years before you, 2000. You don't have tell me about censorship, as the only time I got audited by the IRS, is when I sent emails to WH, objected to their policies, Bush 2 & Obama. I even got audited for years I didn't have to file taxes Amazing how the audits stopped when the administration changed. Free Speech ain't free ... consequences to be paid if out spoken. Very effective censorship, worldwide. As they control most media in the west.

the other in the English Channel area. Good to keep it close by apparently: source

Didn't know they / UK, had a carrier that was sea worthy ... "With the HMS Queen Elizabeth sidelined, the navy may not be able to deploy an aircraft to the Red Sea — as armed forces minister James Heappey has suggested" And he's the Armed Forces Minister I think they could use a few more jets also.

As told by Jews themselves I think more than a few other religious folks, races or labels may disagree with that notion. Just in case you forgot, there will be anther 10 movies made this year to remind you
