No, both are completely silly, and false IMHO. How about we stick with science and math, something that doesn't divide & distract. And hey, it's something you need & useful to you. Knowing people were A-holes a few generations ago is irrelevant to anything in the future. Can't go forward if you're always looking back. If I had kids now, in USA, I wouldn't let them near a school. Or let them watch the Disney channel ????

Real ??? Honey - water test, too easy, quick & accurate. Oil - not so easy, unless going for Xtra virgin or virgin, as your palate will help, if you know or care. If not, then does it really matter. Smoke point may help also, though not really. As I got 3 different thermometers, that give me 3 different readings. Damn quality stuff.???? More than a few YT'ers to tell you how to tell the fakes, though unless knowing what 'real' taste like, what do you have to compare to, aside from labelling, and is that available here, or not faked (label) also. If wanting the good stuff, Xtra virgin, then simply buy a few small bottles of what is available here, and go with the one you like best. Who cares if it's fake, if you like it ... .... unless of course you're drinking the sh!t ????

I simply fly my drone ahead of me ... scouting the way forward.

That was quick and not a good sign. As you have to figure 8-9-10s are from the production crew 90+ not impressed 5 or less rating. The best parts may be in the trailer ... ????

The new Math being taught ... 1+1 doesn't equal 3 any more, you have to adopt ... ????

OK, I should have said, just another 'bug. Like the common cold, which can be caused by a coronavirus. https://www.webmd.com/cold-and-flu/cold-guide/common_cold_causes

Makro usually has 2 brands, their own & another brand. Their own is fine, and usually available in 2 flavors (flower dependent). 100% honey. Sometimes this brand, sometimes something else. https://sunforestthailand.com/en/sun-forest-thailand-english/

Twitter also, postings linked to AN here ... OMG I didn't read the 'fine print'

Rents in TH start less than 2000 baht a month. Granted, not much more than a hotel room w/fan, maybe an AC, which if going CC, you wouldn't use anyway. Townhouse 100 meters from us, 2 bdrm/2 story was 3500 a month, and 1.5 kms from surf, < 5 min to 7-11, 15 min. to Makro...walking. We're paying 6k for exact same, since having a dog ... ???? Thailand can be very inexpensive, options abound.

But we're talking an apartment complex, not some house in the forest or urban area with a soundproof basement.

Then he/she is not making them, simply selling them. Calling self a tailor is a stretch. I haven't had anything made in over 20 years. Just shirts, and they still wear good. Abet fading a bit. Now the wife makes everything.

Imm offices can be different, but, the deposit, AFAIK, needs to be monthly. Hua Hin for instance will allow 400k savings (can't touch) & 40k a month deposit. for retirement visa. Or all 800k for 2 months, or 65k a month DD. The DD has to be trackable by the bank deposited in, as 'THEY' will give you a statement, and the only statement accepted by Imm. It will show origin & transfer point on the way to your Thai bank account.

Was she tied to the bed & gagged ... a bit hard to believe.

... tailor

Didn't see what you were replying to ... ????

Drank them when I first got here, being a CC, along with no real options outside of Krung Thep. Then I drank Beer Laos on a 90 day turn around. Eyes & taste buds opened. Really didn't take much as I drank Ales & porter/stouts in the USA anyway. Could give me a Bud for free, and I wouldn't drink it.

Not really, but you're not far off: Boon Rawd Brewery Singha, Leo, U Asahi Thai Beverage (ThaiBev) Chang, Archa, Federbräu, Carlsberg Thai Asia Pacific Brewery Heineken, Tiger, Cheers, Cheers X-Tra Importer of Guinness and Kilkenny

found 1 vendor 14 baht (100 gr @ 1400), just restocked. Don't think I can smoke that much in my lifetime.

Yep, just another corona virus (flu) that will be with us for generations to come, as are the prominent A & B. Surely there's plenty of new strains, just not tested or mapped as not causing any real problems. 30+k genomes, there will plenty of new strains.

Anyone interested in your personal data, already has it.

Holy Buddha ... that's one they don't do, resemble anything that could be called beer.

Don't do the crime, if you can't do the time. Traveling international with drugs ... ????

That's a pretty voluntary thing, starting a family, especially if in your retirement and maybe already had one back in the motherland. Did that, done that, got the grandkids, and really want to do it again, especially if putting a squeeze on your budget.

You really think 'this war' has anything to do with the price gouging ?

If can't find ... LAZ
