  1. Yes as you can see in this clip from the 2004 dark sitcom "Dead like me" bad people have their followers.
  2. What I think Canada should do to cause some pain is to add an export tax on oil and electricity. You notice Trump has only put a 10% tariff on energy. The Midwest refineries depends on Canadian crude and the Northeast depends on electricity.
  3. No , he flip-flopped again. Delayed the tariffs against Canada and Mexico. Again!
  4. Not sure what you mean. I am here in Thailand, VPN through SF.
  5. I have not had that problem. My VPN is on all the time.
  6. "Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky tells the BBC that Ukraine remains ready to sign a rare minerals deal with the US following his heated confrontation with Donald Trump on Friday"
  7. Yes it is. I have stopped going to the KFC US. The amount of salt they put on the chicken is a crime.
  8. KFC Thailand is a whole lot better than KFC US
  9. This is interesting. As you know AP and Reuters are barred from high level news meetings, but Tass which is not on the approved list managed to get inside and live-stream the meeting. Guess what? No one knows how they got in🤮
  10. It was years ago, but the account that the government check was sent to at Bangkok Bank could only be accessed at the counter. Since I still have a US bank account I have it sent there now and use Wise for transfers.
  11. I was only making a point the "Russia saved Europe" only because Russia and Germany had a falling out.
  12. https://daviscenter.fas.harvard.edu/insights/soviet-role-world-war-ii-realities-and-myths "The war in Europe began on 23 August 1939, when the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany signed a pact that created a partnership between them in dividing up Poland and the rest of Eastern Europe. Under the terms of this pact, the German Wehrmacht moved into western Poland on 1 September 1939, and the Soviet Red Army moved en masse into eastern Poland sixteen days later. Great Britain, which had signed a bilateral defense treaty with Poland earlier that year, declared war against Germany as required by a secret protocol to the treaty. However, the protocol, as we now know, applied only to defense against Germany, not against any other country. Similarly, France, which also had signed a bilateral defense treaty with Poland that expressly applied only to Germany, declared war against Germany hours after Britain did. But neither the British nor the French government declared war against Russia."
  13. If you have seen the framing of those buses to keep the weight down you would not be surprised that the undercarriage crushed the upper carriage in a rollover.
  14. He needs to keep his eyes on the road instead of admiring himself in his rearview mirror.
  15. In 14 months, the Russians gained an area about 2.5 times the size of Bangkok. Most of that area is empty fields. They have lost a good portion of area to the Ukranians in their own country.
  16. A friend of mine died about a year ago. A few months later, his Thai wife asked me to help renew her PP. She had lived in the US for 20 years but for some reason when she got her PP, she wasn't given a full 10-year PP. She had to go in person to the embassy in Bangkok to apply, and then again to pick the PP up. It appears that her PP was not renewable and she had to apply for a new one.
  17. It was said about a year or so ago that Russia could sustain this war for another 2 years. The Russian people are just beginning to feel the pain. There is talk that there will not be enough manpower coming to this spring harvest. Russia needs this war to end as much if not more than anyone else. https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/02/14/russias-central-bank-holds-key-rate-at-21-says-inflation-pressures-remain-high-a88013
  18. Trump is already helping Russia. Since his speech the Ruble has gained 7% to the Dollar.
  19. That is the Trump Whitehouse claims not proof. Just for fun I picked just one and found this https://newsfactsnetwork.com/fact-check/fact-vs-fiction-usaid-funding-for-a-transgender-comic-book-in-peru/
  20. I read somewhere that for the heart it is best to sleep on your left side. I mostly sleep on my right, a pillow helps. I had GERD bad for months years ago. I did most of the things that were supposed to help, I took over-the-counter meds, and prescription meds, ate bland foods, and started sleeping in the LazyBoy. None of it helped. Then a nurse told me to stop taking the meds and just carry a bottle of water with me and just SIP throughout the day. I don't know why but in around 3 weeks it was gone and never came back.
  21. I know this is a bit old post. But at this point none of these meet the hype. Here are some expensive ones that most of the reviews were not so good. https://www.timekettle.co/products/w4-pro-ai-interpreter-earbuds?gQT=1 Years ago I had a friend who lost all his hearing and I was looking for something to help him I came across these Sony glasses that they have been working on since 2014. The last update, that I can't find, said they were working on translating of both audio and overhead translation of the spoken and written text. This is an old link from 2014. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=sony+overhead+display+glasses#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:c77e6cc8,vid:D0SRBwF6jxs,st:0
  22. It is just one more way the rich can grease each other's palms
