  1. So, IMHO, you might want to study a bit more about spirituality versus organized religion. There is a huge difference between spirituality and organized religion. There is no such thing as "spiritual hierarchy" The word hierarchy generally has to do with position of individuals in any kind of organization. The Catholic Church is an organization with officials who are appointed to do the business of running the largest religious organization on the planet. The Pope is, roughly speaking, the lead man of the Catholic Church. IMHO, there are better questions to ask with it comes to religion and spirituality. The world doesn't necessarily need any kind of organized religion. But, IMHO it definitely needs spirituality. I think a much better question is: Does the world need spirituality. I believe whole heatedly that it does. The core of all worlds problems is the spiritual sickness of it's societies and this "look out for number one" kind of attitude that is pervasive. People thinking mostly of themselves and not thinking enough of others. Nobody needs The Bible or weekly church services to practice spirituality and try to have a relationship with a Higher Power or Higher Force in the universe. The core of spirituality is a life of selflessness. Thinking of others more than oneself. Roll models would be Mother Teresa, Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr, The Dalai Lama and others who devote their lives in service to others and teach spiritual principles of Love, Tolerance, Patience, Selflessness, Charity and the like.
  2. What do you expect from prostitutes? Damn, in the first place, most prostitutes work out of desperation and/or have very low moral character. So, of course they are opportunistic and will steal when they have the chance. Any punter who thinks otherwise deserves to be taught a lesson. Damn, I rarely do pay for play but if I do I make sure and make my dwelling "hooker proof" if I decide to take one back to the house. You got tohide anything valuable that you'd miss. So, the man is disabled, but do you think that matters to a desperate Pattaya Beach street walker? You'd think some of these punters left common sense, if they had any, back in the home country. Wow. Pretty daft.
  3. Luxury Pattaya cruise? I wager just like the Ford Taurus was a deluxe luxury automobile. And the Big Mac a gourmet hamburger. That boat looks like Tammy Faye Bakers bathroom.
  4. There are also a huge number of expat punters going bareback into Thailands sex worker fruit without any thought of the trouble they can cause their temporary partners or themselves. Darwin at work there too yea? What kind of person does that? Let em' get crouch rot yea?
  5. I appreciate your concern and it's good to alert people to scams but hey, you might want to give people the benefit of the doubt. Not everyone is as stupid as you might think.
  6. Oh, let it go my friend. "They" are also still trying to sell penis pumps to the genitalia-ly challenged and convince folks that tenatis can be cured by tapping on a spoon held up to your skull. Nobody except the really gullible are buying these things.
  7. No, that's not the case, you only think it is. Go about your business, accept that not everything in Thailand is going to meet your criteria of what is right and get on with it. With concerns like this you'll have a heart attack within weeks. Let it go man.
  8. Nobody is worried. This ridiculous proposal only serves to continually expose his ineptitude and ignorance. Alcatraz will never be a prison again. Much too expensive to run and it is NOT escape proof.
  9. He's been having some gastro problems as of late. I think the sh!t is rising above his eye balls bye now. He used to accuse Biden as senile? Reopening Alcatraz? Never gonna happen!!
  10. This short clip is enough for anyone with half a brain to understand this man is not even fit to be Mayor of a small town let alone president of the USA. His answer is that of a High School president in 3rd year. Not that of say a constitutional lawyer (like Obama) These are his answers? Really? Just ridiculous! He gets his ideas from Movies and Cartoons. Just like Sacha Baron Coens President Aladeen - I think now we'll see Trump insisting all nuclear war heads have "pointy" tops because they are "more scary"
  11. I swear I saw this guy paying for a curry meal at 7-11 with a bag full of 25 satang coins.
  12. Movies and cartoons appears to be where DT get's a lot of his so called "great ideas"
  13. It's pretty clear where a lot of Trumps so called "great ideas" come from. Old movies and cartoons. I think he must be a Clint Eastwood fan. Alcatraz was closed years and years ago and for good reason. It was proved to be ineffective and expensive as a prison. Trump has been searching madly for a way to put his stink into the beautiful San Francisco Bay Area
  14. You might want to see about getting a PMB (private mailbox) in your local USA town. Most all do mail forwarding and they are very handy for making sure you get all your business mail in the same place if you are a frequent traveler or live abroad half the year and home the other half. Saves any of this mess revealing your travel to Thailand or other countries for extended time. I prefer to not reveal my travel and just use the PMB and forwarding service rather than mess about with contacting individual banks, insurance companies etc have mail forwarded. As far as phone number, yes get a Google Phone number or other VOIP service (skype is going away but there are others)
  15. Yea I did a few searches for strings in this post and found no copies so, it's quite possible, this material is original. Bravo, the Red Cappies continue to be more fodder for comedians. The constant irony and outrageous personalities make it so easy to have fun with this gang. It's a laugh riot, soon to end. The mid-terms won't come quick enough.
  16. This interview is another example of just how sophomoric, inarticulate and uninformed Trump is. This is a direct quote from the interview: Asked directly whether it’s his duty to uphold the Constitution, Trump said, “I don’t know.” Does he not remember the oath he took on swearing into the presidency? Just outrageous. He's digging a hole that will be very difficult to climb out of without some heavy damage control (lying and spinning the truth)
  17. Hey, and there is hope for advisor status. If Pete Hegseth, Robert Kennedy and Pam Bondi can make it, so can you. Even an average Joe can be a cabinet pick. Just make sure your grooming skills are up to par and you bring plenty of chapstick for butt kissing relief.
  18. Yes, they've got serious work to do. No time to see the constant irony of King Donalds actions and his merry band of sycophantic sophomores. They must search out and find a proper flatulence medicine to stop Hilary from having those tremendous gas attacks. She is destroying Florida! Hurricane Hilary is coming!
  19. Watch out, those lefties gonna get ya! They're gonna jump out of those vegan cafe's throwing fried tofu!
  20. Exactly. Woke judges? Even the post reeks of bias. Just trash and a waste of time. It proves nothing.
  21. Yea, it's undeniable? LOL, you are joking right? Maybe the kind of cheap women that are good for a throw but you'd hope would either just shut or leave after the deed. LOL.
  22. I wouldn't go that are. Coming from a broken home? Where do you get your information? Do what I did. I did a bit of research and found that income and level of education have a direct correlation.
  23. Yea, you don't see many serious intellectuals or people at high levels of business or government dawning all manor of tattoos, or body modifications. There is a direct link to the class of people and their body decorations etc. ( or lack of) I myself have NO tattoos or piercings. When I was working my income and education were well above average and into the top 3% Interestingly, the 2023 Pew Research Center data indicates an inverse relationship between education/income and tattoo prevalence in the US: 37% of those with some college education or less have a tattoo. 24% of those with a bachelor's degree have a tattoo. 21% of those with a postgraduate degree have a tattoo. 43% of lower-income adults have a tattoo. 31% of middle-income adults have a tattoo. 21% of upper-income adults have a tattoo. Now just because I don't have tattoos doesn't mean I don't like them on women. I find some body piercings and tattoos on women very erotic.
  24. Good idea, but again, how exactly do "they" do it? Who exactly would enforce the highway patrols prescience? Do "they" actually pay them more? Who would do it? Do the put in place quotas? Why is the highway patrol not patrolling the highways. How do "they" make them un-lazy? IMHO, very difficult to get into or understand the hierarchy of any Thai government org or business. What is really happening behind the scenes? The social order between Thai people is often difficult for westerners to understand.
