  1. Only had 200gr of bread flour 🙄
  2. And ??? I'm 70+ and still walk, pedal & drive around. BEV when driving, as enjoy the better performance & savings (charge w/excess solar). Not contributing to the low level air pollution is a nice added plus.
  3. Still not as eco friendly as plastic ...
  4. So you walk everywhere, good for you
  5. Seriously, cutting down trees is eco friendly ??? Google, 'eco friendly, paper or plastic' ... enlighten yourself. Paper/cardboard is about the worst thing to use for anything.
  6. We reuse most plastic bags. Anything not or can't be reused, we burn. As that is would the municipality does with it, hopefully. Worse, dump in the sea, and why we burn ... to Save a Turtle. Municipalities should recycle or burn trash for energy. All municipalities. Until then, we'll burn what little trash we generate, in our almost 'smokeless' trash kiln.
  7. Again .... PLASTIC is NOT the problem. PEOPLE ARE. What they do with the plastic after it's use. What vehicles are you driving ? How can you complain about oil & gas production, along with it's byproducts. Just a wee bit hypocritical
  8. Easily solved, if people cared. Stop transporting via the seas. No real reason to use oil tankers, except higher profits. All in favor of a complete ban on fossil fuel production. In the 21st century, it's almost an unnecessary material to be used for most things.
  9. Plastic is a good thing, for those without a canvas or alternative material. Anything is better than paper. Was at a restaurant the other day, and they had paper straws. About as un-ECO friendly as you can be. If I lived there, I wouldn't patronize the place. You can't fix stupid
  10. One can only hope he keeps up the same pace for all 4 years, maybe hit 4M mark, which would be outstanding ... 👍👍 Millions less criminals in the country ... who can argue that's a bad thing? People that have no respect for and violate the law. BYE BYE
  11. Wife pays a bit more than ฿400 a day, and only an 8 hr day. We're in Nakhon Nowhere, and sometimes struggles to get help.
  12. So nobody noticed the 3+ million that Obama administration deported But Trump's 135+k ....
  13. Pre tsunami was fine, and haven't been since. Looking at YT, won't be visiting unless there's another scamdemic Then would probably be 1st on my list to visit 😎
  14. That's why there's AC. Option to use here, TH, or anywhere else. Use to work outdoors, manual labor, at Memphis, TN, USA, and 38°C +/- for a month wasn't rare at all, and high RH to go along with it. Easier to take here, TH, since not working in the heat. 38°C in the shade with a sea breeze is easy to take in.
  15. Actually yesterday's ... sorry 😊 VID_20250621_115148.mp4
  16. Tony Jaa (Tatchakorn Yeerum) Crossed over in Furious & & The Expendables 👍 Along with some B movies (non Thai action flicks)
  17. Why would they do something that stupid, and derail their gravy train. Illegality keeps the prices and profits high.. Keeps the extreme riff raff out, as if you could scrape the bottom of the barrel any more. The corrupt are flush with cash & happy. Leave things just the way they are, as keeps us folks the don't participate, off the radar, and enjoying our comfy lifestyle.
  18. That's relative, but for myself, disagree. When retired in 2000, I could live anywhere I wanted, and still can. I simply prefer to be here in TH. 25 yrs later, I'd have to generate extra income (easy enough) if returning to USA, to live same as I do here, as inflation went a little crazy during a few of those years. Especially RE taxes & housing costs. Settled with family, wife / daughter, so not going anywhere, and no real desire to. Not even for a visit back to the motherland, or any where for even a holiday.
  19. Working in customer service, I can relate to a few aspects of dealing with people: ... @ restaurant, customers are OK, except if drunk ... when bartending, male drunks are PIA, females are friendly & horny ... working 3 airlines, counter & gates, mixed, but can be Aholes, as it seems delays due to weather or mechanicals are your fault. Idiots don't seem to care if it's safe to fly or not ... go figure I couldn't imagine dealing with some to the Ahole tourist the locals have to deal with, and they do an excellent job ... IMHO Some of the Aholes I've witnessed in tourist areas or even not tourist areas, I would have told to simply F'off, get out of my shop, bar, restaurant. No wonder a few need to be physically removed or a well deserved beat down.
  20. Quick & short O&A ... 1285 kms ... cost Petrol vs CS per kms Petrol ... ฿2.348 per km (14 kpL @ ฿32.88 (91) CS ... ฿0.518 per km Petrol cost 4.53 times as much to operate per kms, that trip.
  21. Location dependent ... locals versus tourists and also how ding dong is the tourist. I used to use when on a monthly pub crawl and go around town and I think I gave him 75 baht an hour which usually turned into a 6 Plus hour night. Ending with a after midnight late munch at a local restaurant as he was quite a pleasant gent. My 'on call' driver. Bartered our English & Thai lessons 🙄
  22. On her 3rd job since graduating. From ฿30-55 at first job, to ฿65k to now ~฿100k a month salary. Wants to retire early w/RE investments ... a chip off the ol' block
  23. Daughter was accepted at a few of the top 5-7 Unis, depending what website stat was on. Chose one of the top ones for business courses. She went with Thammasat 👍 ... "Several Thai universities stand out as excellent choices for business education. Chulalongkorn University and Thammasat University" ...
  24. If kids identify as a pirate, will the doc chop off one of their legs ? I changed my mind, I don't want to be a pirate no more ... OH CRAP
