And if there is any money left over allocate it to National Guard bonuses possibly through incentive pay and reenlistment bonuses.

Someday we may see a caption in the history of Thailand, "The Rise and Fall of the Shinawatra Dynasty".

Canadian coins have "CANADA" on them, Mexican coins "ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS" or "United Mexican States" and "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" on U.S. coins. Central and South American countries have other variations. I have never seen anyone challenging the wording on these coins. Feel free to challenge the use of the word "American" to describe citizens of the U.S. However, much of the world doesn't seem to have a problem.

Somehow I think you are confusing sinkings with crashes and structural failures with explosions.

This happens to be a private hospital funded by a charitable trust. They have an excellent reputation throughout the state. People often drive miles out of their way to use this hospital . Judging by the sequence of tests I am assuming they chose the ones first that were in line with the doctor's suspicions, using a process of elimination. This is the first time there I did not receive a diagnosis and the first time they have billed me...$15.64 total. Medicare and Tricare covered the rest. Now that I have modified my diet it seems to have fixed the problem. We just returned from a months stay in Thailand and not once did I suffer any digestive distress. No, I do not think you are crazy. Medicine is an evolving science with new discoveries virtually every day. My girlfriend's brother is a M.D. in Bangkok. He retired from one hospital and was immediately asked to join the staff of another. I enjoy talking to him. Besides working in research he is also an excellent diagnostic doctor. I respect him because he is a free thinker, like myself, and does not hesitate to disagree with the "establishment". He also thinks that statins are not good and can cause alzheimer's disease.

Sometimes conclusive diagnoses can be very difficult to reach. A few months ago I went the emergency room complaining of a shortness of breath. Four hours latter after a battery of tests including blood work, chest x-ray, cat scans, Covid test, etc., the doctor could find nothing wrong and told me the tests showed the body of a teenager. I am 84. Upon discharge I felt relieved that the tests did eliminate some of my fears of something terrible. My shortness of breath went away. I told my PCP in a followup visit that I think my GERD might have something to do with it. He didn't disagree.

I read over 8 reports that say the same thing, terrorist attack of 3 explosions on 1 ship.

Paetongtarn is a big girl. Daddy needs to stop interfering and let her do her job.

The publicity may help keep it to an even smaller minority.

Where are all the Thai-bashers?

So do I. People in these lower pay grades seem to show much appreciation when we (my girlfriend and I) tip them.

I would say, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

The taxi drivers did the right thing. Now to get him back to Hong Kong without further incidents.

The OP should have mentioned the statistics apply to Asia and the Pacific region and not the entire world.

You can interpret it any way you want.

Save your sermon for the pulpit. If repeating what factcheck.apr has to say about Peoples Voice is smearing then according to you I am guilty.

You mean like the Hindu caste system?

I never expected much, so I wasn't disappointed.

Good! No ski bums here.

I just happen to live in Hawaii. Lived here all my life. I've been all over the Pacific, but never to Australia and have no desire to go there.

Perennial complainers tend to sit in their corner and mope.

Being an economic power with a diverse economy, Japan can afford to be choosy about the caliber of tourist they welcome.

While part of Japan, Okinawa has its own unique cuisine and culture. In Hawaii, people of Okinawan ancestry have their own social cliques and organizations.

Why not? We have that in Hawaii. Snow on Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa while it is sunny (80 to 85F) and warm at lower elevations.
