"the bus may have lost traction while crossing the bridge", AkA, the driver was going too fast for the conditions. This could have easily been avoided. Imagine you are awaiting for your child to return from school and you get the call. Devastating.

This is incredibly sad and unacceptable. The number of bus crashes in Thailand is extremely high. Something has to be done about that. I would love to know how many bus crashes a year there are in Thailand. There should be less than 3 if the correct precautions were in place.

BTW, I worked in the electric, gas and energy industry for a trading company for many years. I couldn't remember if it was oil or natural gas so I just looked it up. "In 2023, the United States imported about 8.51 million barrels per day (b/d) of petroleum from 86 countries. Petroleum includes crude oil, hydrocarbon gas liquids (HGLs), refined petroleum products such as gasoline and diesel fuel, and biofuels. Crude oil imports of about 6.48 million b/d accounted for about 76% of U.S. total gross petroleum imports. In 2023, the United States exported about 10.15 million b/d of petroleum to 173 countries and 3 U.S. territories (American Samoa, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands). Crude oil exports of about 4.06 million b/d accounted for 40% of total U.S. gross petroleum exports. The resulting total net petroleum imports (imports minus exports) were about -1.64 million b/d, which means that the United States was a net petroleum exporter of 1.64 million b/d in 2023." Thus the US is a net exporter of petroleum, but a net importer of crude oil (2.5 million b/d). Note that it comes from 86 countries. I am sure I can think circles around you. Yes, I know US consumers ultimately pay the tariffs. Yes, I know about the electricity imports. Where people live drives how much if any they depend on electricity imports. I don't know if I am older or younger than you, but I bet regardless of your age I could beat you handedly in a 1.5km/1 mile race. Same with most other distances.

I am an American and I am sure I weigh a lot less than you fatty. You forget just how big the USA is and how big its buying power is. That is why all the countries that made a tariff deal did so.

Exactly. How did they actually see combat if there were no opposing planes and they did exactly nothing. No bombs dropped, no planes shot at. Flying around in circles doesn't count. Nice propoganda piece.

Sorry I can't since it is a fact and facts can not be changed.

Trump was able to stop the Cambodian - Thai war. All this guy does is Win Win Win.

Poker....next thing we know eSports will be in the Olympics. Haha. Maybe the drink lifting counts as weight lifting and working out.

Exactly. Football payers make big $$$ in the USA, flag football players don't get paid and I don't think there is a regional or national league. Flag football is played at the intermural level in college/uni in the USA.

"The meeting also granted official sport status to American football." It is flag football, not football. I can't wait to see Thailand play the USA with Tom Brady as QB. I would be surprised if the Thais could even reach high enough to grab his flag. Maybe Gronk will play too. That would be so funny to see a Gronk run into a Thai.

This can only end poorly for Thailand. The economic power of the US is no match for Thailand. Thailand will get squished like a bug.

Do these Russian tourists not understand their country is at war, a war that their president started BTW?

Sounds like a big piss-up over nothing.

A whole 2,000 followers. All that internet fame went to his head.

There are no smoke clouds to walk through in the USA. Just ban smoking in all public places. I remember decades ago I would go out to a pub or club and oh the smell when I took off my shirt at home in preparation for going to bed. Since then never had that issue. I can't even image the last time I saw someone smoking where I live.
