That sucks ... so much for the deceased wishes to be carried out, if that's the case.

How the Wealthy Save Billions in Taxes by Skirting a Century-Old Law
KhunLA replied to Scott's topic in World News
For the USA .. the unfair income tax. I would have welcome a 'fair' flat tax of 15-20-25% across the board income tax. FAIR ... everyone pays the same. Nothing like crying about taxes they don't have to pay, while wanting other people's money, they didn't earn. Want more money, go earn more, then cry about the unfair, extra tax you have to pay so support the 'lay abouts'. Never had a problem paying taxes for social programs for those in need, but the others can stop crying about taxes they don't pay. -

Finally ... keep up the good work. Never understood the ... 'issue citation, then allow to drive away' enforcement. Good to go after the rental shops also ???? So it jumped from 7 Frenchys to 20 now ???? -
Shouldn't the title by, can the locals be as happy as the expat millionaires. If money is the priority. Was always happy when poor, still happy now with a bit more jingle in the pocket. Just more comforts, making things simply easier, not happier, if that's even possible ... ????

Yes, I DL'd 2 last night, the only 2 that weren't cams. 13 & 9 GBs. Probably watch tonight.

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. -
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.

This might even be available OTC "The best equivalent of Lexomil Roche in Thailand called Lexotan. Analogue has exactly the same ingredients, pharmacological group"

But are you in China ?

No, they have a will, she doesn't.

I use the Remington DURABLADE, same style, wee bit different shaving head. A bit expensive here, so had sent over from US.

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

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' ...

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.

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.

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.

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.

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:

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.

New Rule: A Woke Revolution | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO)

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.
