    Yes, I DL'd 2 last night, the only 2 that weren't cams. 13 & 9 GBs. Probably watch tonight.
  2. And everyone has access to the same laws. USA, the 'poor' pay little to no tax, I know, I was one. Then I started making money, and had to pay about 40% tax ... yea, that's fair. The poor cry about paying next to nothing, and the better earners, simply try to keep as much as they've EARNED. And some think there is something wrong with that.
  3. Chime back in after 6 months, let us know (or PM me) how it goes. I bought 1 Durablade here, don't think it's a fake, but old version and not cheap. Had an Amazon sale in US, so bought 3 more cheaper 3 total less than the 1 here, and since nephew had parcel coming over anyway, just added to his shipment. He kept one, so had 3. One bought locally just died, maybe 2 yrs old. Other 2 are just OK. Bought 10 heads last year, again, great sale, and sent over again. Heads last about 1 year, so much for the 5 yr warranty, though expected, and only cost $6/฿200 each. I was barely getting 1 shave from the 2 blade Gillette razors sold here (made in Mexico), maybe. No electric will shave as close as a blade against your skin, that's just impossible. But I'm also not going to the office everyday. Shaves that added 10 yrs of grey off. Always had a lite beard until more salt than pepper ... way to vain for that BS.
  4. This might even be available OTC "The best equivalent of Lexomil Roche in Thailand called Lexotan. Analogue has exactly the same ingredients, pharmacological group"
  5. But are you in China ?
  6. No, they have a will, she doesn't.
  7. I use the Remington DURABLADE, same style, wee bit different shaving head. A bit expensive here, so had sent over from US.
  8. July 2022 info:
  9. Ms Google enlightening me ... not so anti yank, or political as I imagined. Possibly just doesn't like Trump, easily understandable. Still 'smokin' hot' though.
  10. That got me thinking ... it happens some times. Here's a couple charts, by continent, and all about the same, unless from Africa. 2nd one more interesting, and 'life expectancy by year of birth, though only goes back to 1960. And you can actually compare countries. If comparing, easier to read by bar or map. By Continent, born 2022: By birth year: https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SP.DYN.LE00.IN
  11. I liked him as President. I can do without the rest of his silliness. I liked her in 'Battleship', (smokin' hot at times). Though not familiar with much else of her. I can do without her Anti USA krap, and leave that to me. Have to agree, poor choice for half time, as too political, but, NFL is political anyway, so another reason not to watch. Stand up, shut up, and play the game. I actually had to Google 'degenerative filth' ...
  12. Supposedly the bags are made to take the heat. Not a fan myself, and not often that I use such vendors. Low on the 'concern' scale for me.
  13. Being the least expensive most of last year certainly didn't hurt their sales. Little slow getting here, as most were ordered late Mar/Apr/May. Took 5 months for our ZS to arrive at end of Oct. 1 month earlier max estimate.
  14. Use 'LAZ MALL' vendors, and as soon as item is picked up, money is refunded, usually. And not necessarily small items, as got ฿21k for a scooter return, almost instantly, surprisingly. Reading the return T&C always helps.
  15. Mind boggling .... ???? "The annual 24-hour global solar radiation average is about 220 W/m2 for South Africa, compared with about 150 W/m2 for parts of the USA, and about 100 W/m2 for Europe and the United Kingdom. This makes South Africa's local resource one of the highest in the world." https://www.energy.gov.za/files/esources/renewables/r_solar.html#:~:text=The annual 24-hour global,the highest in the world. With the numbers above, you'd think they would have invested in solar, instead of depending on coal. Som naa na https://www.statista.com/statistics/1237610/south-africa-distribution-of-electricity-production-by-source/#:~:text=Coal is by far the,percent of total electricity generation.
  16. Reader's Digest version. I see Wuling w/11, but POCCO didn't make the list. Impressive numbers, finally at years end as they roll in:
  17. Can't use the 'n' word, but can call honkys anything you want. I await his contract termination ... or pay raise.
  18. Not in the quaintly you'd really want, if for home use. Do you not have a freezer with ice cube trays, or simply forget to refill them. 7-11 ice are also cylinder w/holes, I think. Have to pay attention next time buying.
  19. The Isan kitchen sink. Apparently they last for decades and are recyclable. Versatile also, as does a fine job for washing clothes, or bathtub.
  20. Same reason I leave the Amphur & Province when ever I can. Just happy I don't have to deal with airports and 3 or 4 hr flights.
  21. Divisive media ... partake or ignore. You have choices. I'd rather watch the squirrels, birds, cows, lizards from my veranda. Or the wife doing the dishes, or building the greenhouse.
  22. I was going to reply 'as with most nationalities' ... then thought, better check first. Surprisingly, to me anyway, quite the opposite, for countries that can afford to eat krap food ???? https://www.mpg.de/17790299/1102-defo-life-expectancy-decreased-in-most-high-income-countries-154642-x
  23. Harsh crowd ... ... that's interesting to see, the train passing through the market. Guessing a few replying, like myself, have seen it. Don't know if I'd make a special trip to see, but if in the neighborhood, as most are, seeing other things, why not. I certainly didn't go where it was that crowded. Need to stroll down the line a bit further, and a more pleasant experience. Checking out the vendors as might find something interesting. What else you going to see here, or not see, this time of year. Mountain vistas, scratch those. Gulf is iffy. Phuket and Samui are scam ridden for tourist. Then there's a Wat, and another Wat ... oh yea, and that other Wat. National parks that charge you 10X the locals, and you wonder why they even pay that much for what's not there. Waterfalls without water are always a thrill, to pay and not see. Since they're a bit dry, watching the relic trains on the trestle along the river is a bit different. Mall after mall, don't have those at home. Leaves khlong markets and cheap eats, along with coffee shops to increase your BMI. Thailand as an international tourist destination ... does make you wonder. Maybe the Chinese are just coming here for the 'fresh air' ????
  24. Another fun fact, about 700+/- a year, guns (maybe) were used to protect people and their loved ones, Not including all the crimes and possible homicides that were stopped because of gun owners, without killing the criminal. Apparently come in handy every now & then ... https://www.statista.com/statistics/251894/number-of-justifiable-homicides-in-the-us/
  25. Possible only 2 months, since you're extending. If you can't meet that, they may extend you 30 or 60 days, the time you need, while it seasons. They did that for me one year, a 30 day extension, as one year they didn't like my 40k monthly deposits paperwork, for some reason.
