  1. I guess this boils down to, if you believe in tariffs, reciprocal tariffs, or no tariffs at all. The list provided clearly shows reciprocal tariffs, which can be easily fixed.
  2. I just got my 1 yr extension, so I should get at least another year to gloat 🤪
  3. One thing I notice from the list, the heavy hitters are exactly who you would have expecting them to be, let them squirm.
  4. I'm questioning if he was drunk at all, sounds more like he was high from smoking cannabis and had the munchies, that's not something that can just wait until morning.
  5. My daughters private school was inspected over the weekend and reopened on Tuesday, though there was very little structural damage (visual or otherwise) in my area.
  6. Don't worry, somewhere in Pattaya there is a Brit saying "Hold my beer" 😜
  7. That suspiciously sounds like entering a roadway without giving way to traffic already in the roadway, but hopefully there is CCTV.
  8. God forbid you are handicapped, the locals consider them less than human, lacking any right to passage.
  9. Only if you do so by signing your name to it.... 😉
  10. Right after the photo ops of all the bigwigs in their shiny new suits with hardhats on are finished, priorities my friend, priorities.
  11. Things are pretty much back to normal, my daughter even went to the Disney Ice Capades on Sunday.
  12. Well, he's right, that's something we can all agree on.
  13. When did the world change from raising the strong and resilient to the meek and feeble?
  14. Based on the governments record on safety, take this declaration with a grain of salt.
  15. Investigators have already found "substandard" steel bars on site that failed testing by the Iron and Steel institute of Thailand. Not to mention the steel was supplied by a Chinese steel company already closed for "safety grounds". This keeps getting better and better, heads need to roll!
  16. My tip to investors, don't invest in Thailand.
  17. If he has a very large brown envelope, the boxes will magically disappear. TIT
  18. So, the BBC says this was a "flat slab" design, "which is no longer recommended in earthquake-prone areas". Pretty close to the same idea for the World Trade center buildings, to maximize open floor space by removing inner support beams.
  19. Same here in Nonthaburi, it felt like the townhouse was on Jello wobbling all over, enough that when I stood up from the kitchen table I almost lost balance.
  20. Yes, and the World Trade Centers were different design, where the support was the outside metal cage structure. This building has multiple support beams on each floor, I'm betting more on the cause being cheap concrete. In fact, wasn't this the same issue with Thai-Italia working on Rama II? Why is the government using this company for anything?!
  21. Wrong, as far as I can tell from testing it, it won't let you go to the next page unless you fill in the following required fields. MODE OF TRANSPORT FLIGHT NO. / VEHICLE NO. I can however avoid the date, put in "AIR", "COMMERCIAL FLIGHT" and then enter "N/A" for flight number, not sure what they will think of that though.
  22. Spent 2-1/2 hours going to get my child out of school, the kids were not allowed back in the building, what a nightmare for gridlock traffic here in Muang Thong Thani. We already had problems getting around with the International Motor Show going on here at IMPACT, but this was off the charts! People everywhere, and all the streets at a standstill. The townhouse (built on sand I am sure) was swaying back and forth for almost a minute, remind me never to go to California, never want to experience that again in my lifetime.
  23. Holy Cow!! Here in Nonthaburi was insane!
