    I'm happy for you.

    How would the residents know what he used the money for? Were they selling it to him?

    One place I go, I'm a regular. If they see me come in, they know what I will order, I don't have to stand in line. I go sit at a table outside, they bring my drink out to me. When I leave I clean up my own mess. Would they give me the same service if I didn't tip? Most likely. but I think they deserve one. What came first, the chicken or the egg?

    As I live rural, I tip quite a bit. Many locals try and fail at keeping their businesses going out here. If I find a mom-and-pop shop that I like I tip well. Chain outlets with tip boxes not so much.

    But you are the very one who said you don't want to pay more to have a shirt made so the workers could have better pay. A g word comes to mind.

    So Germany invaded Poland and France. It was just THEIR war? At what point do you act against an aggressor? Only when he is at your doorstep?

    Another from the vault.

    I think I am. It is always the innocent that get hurt the most. I know that song by heart, and still find it hard to turn the other cheek when the aggressor is using a bat.

    Now sure about Thai law. But don't you need to be caught in the act?

    Same here. I had a bridge, 3 crowns, going on 30 years now. Well worn, but still there.

    For me anyway, it would be more work to learn Modern. I have put so much time into reading Traditional. I can see that if you are trying to learn to write, the Modern would be easier but I need to write so little I will stick to Traditional.

    Yes, that does help up to a point. I used to ride my bicycle up to get coffee but in this heat I had to give that up. It was not so much the heat as it was that when I would get to the shop I would have sweated so much that it looked like I had pissed myself. I see other Thai riders nearly as dry as a bone. Northern European heritage has some drawbacks in this weather.

    I work outside until around 11. By then all my clothes are soaked in sweat. Take my first shower of the day and then off to the coffee shop for about an hr. Come home check my mail, the news, and this site, then study my Thai and Spanish sitting in front of a fan. I go out and do some gardening off and on for a 1/2 hr at a time. About now it is time for my second shower. I turn on the A/C around 3pm.

    On the cheap, there is that roll insulation https://www.lazada.co.th/products/5mm-90cm-2m-insulation-aluminium-foil-i2606309418-s9329922897.html putting batts to hold it. Depending on the size, I have found that covering the top with shade cloth helps a lot ( has to be replaced every 1 or 2 years depending how bad the weather has been)

    I see your point, but that only gives the people who don't wish to carry the right to. That leaves us to guess how many do. But in a state where you still need to get a permit the people getting them are likely to do so. Take New Jersey for example. https://www.njspotlightnews.org/2024/03/nj-concealed-handgun-permits-soared-after-bruen-ruling-scotus-second-amendment/

    I wonder why Texas gets mentioned as so violent. It has 3 of the safest cities on the FBI top 10 list. https://www.security.org/resources/most-dangerous-cities/

    During my Uni years, I lived near an Indian Reservation (US). One day, one of the Indian locals came down the street with a cast on his leg. I asked him what had happened. He pointed to the fourth-floor window across the street and said he fell out of the window backward. He said Thank God he was drunk at the time or he surely would have died.

    When your number is up you are not going to be thinking beforehand " Boy, I'm glad I took such in such or I would be dead already" or " If I had only taken such and such I could waste another week of oxygen."

    That pack a day also keeps the weight off. Everyone I know who gave up smoking gained a lot of weight. I think when you don't have a cigarette to put in your mouth, you substitute it with food.

    I'm doing OK. The house and car are paid for, and I don't have any debt. I haven't had to touch any of my savings or investments in years. My health is good. I don't live large but I am comfortable.

    I guess I don't understand. If I have a skin condition I can go swimming in just a T-shirt?
