    Visa Agents

    What is it about agents that sets certain people off to such an extent? I don't get it.If you don't like agents, just ignore the post. And why do some people need to know a person's life history in order to answer a simple question? Oh, well.
  3. What he's saying is that the Constitution allows for the banning from political office of anyone who has been involved in insurrection. Colorado has already ruled to keep Trump off the ballot but has stayed the ruling until the Supreme Court rules. The issue isn't whether the Constitution permits this but whether Trump actually engaged insurrection since he hasn't been convicted of anything yet.
  4. We are not living in medieval Europe under the control of the Catholic Church. This doctor has a twitter acount, a YouTube account, a Rumble account. He's been on TV and interviewed numerou times by online media. He has right-wing politicians in his corner. He's making a career or being anti-vax. He isn't Galileo.
  5. Read the article in the link. Untrue. Read his twitter feed. It's full of invective. His father died from a heart attack and he blames the vaccine. That's what has triggered him. As I said, there are so many studies that have found the vaccines to be safe and effective (including the Cochrane Review). The risk from myocarditis and pericarditis is well established. It is rare and mainly limited to young men, so it can easily be avoided. Do you believe the studies or this guy?
  6. This has already been debunked numerous times. https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSL1N3490M3/ It's useless to debate these things anymore. You either believe that the entire mainstream medical establishment and global health authorities in all major countries are lying or that these rogue doctors making outlandish (and unprovable) claims are the only the only ones telling the truth. Your choice.
  7. I'm so sick of hearing the term "soft power."
  8. Most of that area has changed from what I understand. The shophouses on Ratchadamnon Avenue were taken over and rennovated, the zoo expelled, Royal Plaza closed to the public. The Red Cross now has to have its annual fair at Lumpini Park. Apparently, most of the land belonged to the king and he decided to take much of it back. Sanam Luang was given particularly special treatment because the area become a hangout for the homeless, drug addicts and prostitutes. But I haven't been over there for years either. Perhaps someone else could provide more up-to-date information.
  9. It's considered part of the royal palace complex and still is used for various royal events, which I think is the main issue. It was also, if I remember correctly, made off limits to the public as part of the King's rennovation of the area. It was fenced off, although that doesn't appear to be the case anymore. It stirred a lot of controversy when it was closed to the public, if I remember correctly. It used to be just an area of dead grass and concrete. Looks like they've spruced it up a bit, though.
  10. I don't know about Chiang Mai but Sanam Luang isn't used for recreational activities, I believe.
  11. I think most people in Thailand had the Astra Zeneca vaccine, which has since been suspended for use in Europe due to possible blood clot complications.
  12. Odd, you'd think they would have been a little self conscious as the only ones sunbathing on that vast sea of green like maybe that isn't the kind of thing you should do there. Possibly?
  13. Yeah, simply amazing. That's why one half to two thirds of Europe was wiped out by the Black Plague and 300 million people were killed by smallpox, which wiped out entire native populations in the Americas,
  14. So if you travel, you can't log in to your account?That's ridiculous. I use a VPN (Windscribe) with Fidelity but I always change the region to Eastern time. Otherwise, I tend to have problems. I also try to log in using the same IP location each time just to be on the safe side. Citibank offers a Global Executive Account that avoids these problems as you can have an overseas address and telephone number. It does cost $25 a month however. Of course, you can also have an overseas address and telephone number with Schwab and Fidelity as long as your account has enough money in it!
  15. Three kids by the age of 22, the first at 15. This girl is not all there.
  16. At least Bangkok Bank customers still have Internet banking, unlike the rest of us
  17. David Gorski does a close analysis of the French hydroxychorloquine study at respectfulinsolence.com. I should note that he is pro-vaccine just to get that out of the way. https://www.respectfulinsolence.com/2024/01/10/did-hydroxychloroquine-hcq-really-kill-17000-covid-19-patients/
  18. Not enough to justify his inclusion in the headline. If you were taking your medical advice from Trump, you have much bigger problems than whether hydroxycholoquine works against Covid. The media's obsession with Trump only further fuels his popularity among his base.
  19. Deliberately linking that to Trump seems more than a little malicious. A lot of people recommended hydroxycholorquine.
  20. I got it on TGX, it was a fast download. Great show.
  21. I second the motion for the tourist. First season is set in the Australian outback, stars James Dornan. A man has his car run into by a truck and wakes up in a hospital with total amnesia. Now he has to find out who he is and what he's done. Lots of twists and turns and good performances all around. I got on TPB.
  22. Thai Visa in Bangkok or Maneerat in Pattaya.
  23. Because then you might write things that actually make sense instead of trying to trash talk people you don't know
  24. Maybe you should have devoted more time to studying English
