Hawaiian

I purposely posted a link and an unrelated comment. He cherry picked the comment to address and ignored the link countering one of his arguments. I tried this with another post. Same result. He is a master of deflection by ignoring the real issue by making all sorts of derogatory comments and ridiculous accusations. Don't waste your time reasoning with him. Eventually, he will disappear.

Interesting aside. Ancient Egyptians used it as a natural form of penicillin.

Unfortunately, there is no vaccine for that. LOL.

Yes, BOSS.

https://health.mil/Military-Health-Topics/Health-Readiness/Immunization-Healthcare/Clinical-Consultation-Services/Exemption-Guidance It's not the information you post, but your arrogance. I've been a AN member for nearly twenty years and don't intend to stop participating because of you.

Some hotels have their own laundries. World famous Mauna Kea Beach Hotel on the Big Island of Hawaii is one of them. The laundry not only serves the hotel but also handles the laundry for Mauna Kea Resort Services, a hotel subsidiary that services the upscale homes surrounding the hotel.

Choice: an act of selecting or making a decision when faced with two or more possibilities. What group do belong to? The group that resorts to all sorts of insults and innuendos when they believe they are right and everyone else is wrong.

Gang warfare? Hope they catch the assailants.

May the Lord be with you.

"other than some very limited occupations like military service there was always a choice to get vaxed or not." Either they had a choice or they did not. Which is it? No one was strapped down and forced to receive a COVID shot, but there were consequences for refusing. Over 8,000 U.S. service members were discharged for refusing. In January of 2023 the DOD rescinded the mandatory vaccine order because of a drastic drop in recruitment. Only 43 former members decided to rejoin the service.

Some people just can't help themselves.

Why didn't you ask for a discount because of the two small holes in your sheets?

Perhaps you have forgotten those employees that were suspended or terminate for refusing to get vaccinated. AFAICR, not that limited.

This is why the spice trade flourished. Europeans needed them for their rancid meats. Of course today there is refrigeration.

Have you considered that the bread was old when you bought it?

Still no excuse for some of the nasty remarks and ugly name calling.

By long stayers I was referring to those living in Thailand without the "proper" visa. The Norwegian IMO is a bona fide tourist. Agree, the ever changing and vague rules are why I gave up thinking about living in Thailand. Thankfully my Thai girlfriend likes living here in Hawaii and has no intention of moving back.

Was there in November and passport stamped for 60 days with visa exempt. Never asked about my return flight.

AFAIK the intent of increasing the visa exempt stay to 60 days was to allow bona fide tourists longer stays to generate more income for the country. Correct me if I'm mistaken. It is evidently being abused by long-stayers.

You need to find a better source for information; one with the latest accurate information. The plane's black box and flight recorder is being sent back to Brazil to be analyzed by the plane's manufacturer.

Not really sure how much greed contributes to inflation, but greed is becoming more than obscene. Bloomberg reports that 500 of the world's richest people now have a combined wealth of $10 trillion. Some of this wealth consists of intangible assets that can appreciate (or disappear) overnight. Would that be considered inflation?

Did someone refer to you as "filthy unvaccinated scum"? Not nice. Personally, I feel it is your body, your choice. By the same token the unvaccinated should also refrain from uncivil comments. Much of this blog is filled with uncalled for, petty bickering. Some, like myself, are here to learn and not to be chastised and raked over the coals for their personal beliefs. Have a safe and Happy New year.

This forum would be awfully boring without the entertaining clowns, although I've seen funnier clowns in the circus.

Their theories work until they don't. Like Keynesian Economics and the Laffer Curve.

Listening to Xi talk, the Chinese under the CCP are perfectionists at everything they do including having research labs that are accident proof. Yeah, right.
