Visa implications for foreigners marrying Thais? I assume Thailand would then recognize same sex marriages done abroad, yes?

I said should. I didn't say would. Next ...

That's a complex question. Did they intend to kill the targets? Obviously. Did they know they were killing food aid workers? Seems so. Should be investigated by an external party. Did they think there were also Hamas targets? Maybe. Should be investigated by an external party. Was this hit authorized at the highest levels? Unknown. Should be investigated by an external party.

I had a highly educated relative message me to express concern about the quake in Taiwan. I didn't want to shame her, so I just acted like she didn't say that.

I like a healthy balance. I hate businesses that won't accept cash and I'm reluctant to travel to countries (China) where you absolutely need digital.

That is simply not true.

It's sad when a political system forces out it's best and brightest.

I'm so not surprised.

"Your" military? Again, your conclusions are premature.

I call B.S. The River to the Sea brigade were protesting immediately after October 7, many celebrating it, well before there was any response from Israel. Anyway, it's been obvious to me from the start that this was the Hamas plan. Bait Israel into a ferocious response, maximize their own civilian casualties, and take the win though P.R. It worked better than they could have hoped for in their wildest dreams. Yes Israel because they're still stuck with that horrible Netanyahu took the bait to a higher level than a more moderate Israeli leader would have done, but any Israeli leader would have responded as would any leader in any other country so attacked. As far as your definitive conclusions about what how the food kitchen workers got targeted, those conclusions can't honestly be taken as fact at the moment.

Yeah don't talk to their regime. Support Ukraine to win the war.

Disingenuously pleading ignorance. Here's the deal. Isis is solely responsible for the horrible terrorist attack in Moscow. Dictator Putin feeling vulnerable that Russians will see him as failing to protect their security predictably and falsely implicates Ukraine and the collective west with the attack for propaganda purposes.

As I said before I consider Albania joining the EU as a negative for potential American expats there But when?

It's like you wish that would happen so that even more people hate Israel.

Well for real estate investors it's no.secret that there are some incredible opportunities on the Albanian riviera. Some of the most beautiful coastline in the world.

Almost definite actually.

Well I got a delivery but it was sourced from the wrong store, much further away and with less stock. Oh boy, the saga continues.

"History" as entertainment. Americans anyway will know at least a little about the assassination of savior of the Union Abraham Lincoln and his assassin John Wilkes Booth the actor while attending Our American Cousin at Ford's Theater. But there is so much more to the story. I think this one is well worth a watch but you will be asking yourself just how historically accurate is it? How Accurate Is 'Manhunt'? The True Story Of Abraham Lincoln's Assassination (variety.com) SPOILER ALERT: This article discusses plot twists from the premiere episode of “Manhunt.” The assassination of Abraham Lincoln was one of the biggest turning points in American history, and the new Apple TV+ series “Manhunt” examines the behind-the-scenes drama of a wartime government thrown into further chaos. Edwin Stanton (Tobias Menzies) leads the series as Lincoln’s close confidant and secretary of war, who goes on a mission to track down John Wilkes Booth (Anthony Boyle) after he shoots President Lincoln (Hamish Linklater). The seven-episode series is based on executive producer James L. Swanson’s nonfiction book “Manhunt: The 12-Day Chase for Lincoln’s Killer,” and episodes will be released weekly after the first two debuted on March 15.

Because Israel loves horrible public relations.

If your original visa was O not OA then no requirement at all.

Haven't been to Mexico, huh?

Really worse than haggis?

Great dish but those stinky beans stay with you long time.

Isn't fish sauce which is in the majority of Thai dishes made from fermented fish? I like the very yellow southern Thai curry with chunks of fish and sour bamboo shoots?

Time for a two city solution?
