Need to send my father's remains back to the USA. Still unsure if it will be body or cremated remains.
Remember, services are for the living.

Fish dying after topping up pond
I don't think that's really going to increase oxygen levels much but may help a little, you're just pumping new water in. What you need to do is spray water up into the air that is fed by the pond water. Take that sprinkler system that's there, route the inlet pipe to the bottom of the pond, and use a pump to make it operate so it draws the water from the pond and not the well. It's hard to get oxygen to the lower levels of the pond, because oxygen rises, that's why having the water inlet draw from the bottom of the pond works best, it takes that lower level water and adds oxygen when it's sprayed above the surface.

Dental Implants recommendations for Bangkok
Get a second opinion. I'm on my second molar now where a dentist recommended to pull the tooth as the only option, and I went to another dentist and they saved it with a root canal and crown. These are primary biting molars.

Reverse mortgage in Florida - anyone done it?
The bank would only give you cash for the equity, not the price of the home. If you bought at market price there would be no equity for years (assuming the price kept increasing).

Lazada Nonsense Again.
You're probably rushed and confused in general. Try to meditate and get your mind relaxed and you will find that the deliveries are not that difficult.

Why do people hate golf?
The reason I never liked golf is because it seemed odd playing alone for some reason. I felt like just wandering off or going hiking or mountain biking. I like things I can just get up and do at any time without planning, rather then scheduling to meet people.

the wai
I just return the wai because I don't feel of higher status. What the other person thinks does not matter🤔. If you don't return the wai you're accepting higher status in the situation or relationship. Sometimes I won't return it if it's clear I'm a customer because it's obvious I'm being served, or if it's the doorman or similar, but in regular interactions it's risky too not wai back and would most likely be seen as lack of respect. Kind of like in the Usa if someone offered a handshake and you just stood there 🤣.

Opening A Bank Account In Another City
Can I use a 'Certificate Of Residence' from Pattaya Immigration where I live to open a bank account in Bangkok, or do I need the certificate from Bangkok Immigration? If I need the Certificate from Bangkok Immigration, will they issue it if my LEASE/TM47/TM30, etc. is in Pattaya?

O-A Visa Pitfalls
It says I need a "retirement certificate" from my embassy. Never heard of it. Does it mean proof of social security? Won't get that until I'm much older.
