The point is on the top of your head......(and the look is fitting)

......and another reason is potential hazards such as this florescent glass tube.

Who says that Thailand is pedestrian friendly? One of the reasons scooter drivers don't ride on the sidewalks. One of the reasons I generally walk carefully, with eyes wide open, on the edge of the streets.

Oh, the other thing that annoys me is when I go to a petrol station such as PTT and the first thing they do is put that magnetic placard on my hood.

Do you ask them in Thai or English? Besides, even in English there's multiple words for the same thing. EX: Plasterboard, sheetrock, Gypsum board, drywall..... I find it's easiest to show them a picture on your phone. Before the use of mobile phones I used to ask (in Thai) if they speak English as my Thai is definitely limited when it comes to various items. After they hear my question in Thai they would usually all go scurrying off.

Having tons of staff follow you throughout the store is also a common practice in China. What bugs me is seeing all those standing around playing on phones, or following customers around......but yet when you go to checkout there's only one or two registers of the 10 or 12 that are open.

I think cooking times and temperatures vary too much due to different Air Fryers and personal tastes. You need to experiment around and see what gives you the best results for your liking. Since I got my Air Fryer I have been keeping notes about cooking the things I like and I have to admit the first go around didn't result the best. But after some tweaking I've gotten these things down pretty good: Grilled cheese sandwich Salmon Steak (Aussie tenderloin) Smores French Toast Veggies Banana Bread For my veggies I only put some items like the potatoes and carrots in the AF first and cook some before adding the other veggies. I will cook at a low temp (160C) and then after 10 minutes I will rotate and cook more before adding the other veggies and increasing the temperature. NOTE: I like my broccoli and cauliflower a little crispy so I'll usually crank the temperature to 200C before stopping.

After purchasing an Air Fryer a few months back I have been doing nothing but using it for veggies. I cut chunks of broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, potatoes, Bell peppers, mushrooms, and onions......place them in a bowl, spray lightly with a little olive oil, and mix well with some seasonings. Easy to do, easy to clean up, healthy, and the fresh crispy taste is awesome (IMO).

Is that the best you can do? .......and I bet your mommy helped you think of that.

Who gives a chit?

Sure it's well known now but when it first started not many was one the wiser.... That strategy was the forerunner for the subscription process used today by nearly everyone who can. NOTE: There's many ways around everything if you dig hard enough to learn them..... streaming, SW apps, OS licensing.....and heaven forbid, even how to get a Thai Visa Extension without having the required money in the bank...... 😁

The subscription process started years ago without most folks not even knowing it. HP started it by basically giving away free inkjet printers and then making their revenue by charging an 'arm & leg' for a refill cartridge.

I thought a few years back they said that driving against the proper flow of traffic would result in a 2,000 THB fine? Why am I constantly seeing scooter drivers/riders with no helmets and using their phone? Sadly they will never learn... RIP....

If I recall my brother sent me some money after my mother passed away from the USA to my BBK Bank account through the BBK Bank New York office....all that was needed was my account number, routing number, and SWIFT Code. Not sure what you are requesting.

Are you looking for the SWIFT Code? If so it's BKKBTHBK

Bored is much better than stupid....IMO

SMH, reaching out on a public forum to get answers to an easy question just by using Goggle or calling the store. .....and yet 3 pages of relies and still going...... Boring lives?

Reading isn't too difficult.... "The ambulance, an EMS vehicle from Botene Hospital in Xayaburi Province, Laos, was en route to deliver a patient to a facility in Tha Li, approximately 30 kilometres from its origin."

I've said it many times before, there's 2 things drivers in Thailand fail to do: 1) Yield at pedestrian crosswalks (aka Zebra crossings). 2) Yield the right away to emergency vehicles. On the other hand, the ambulance should have flashing lights and siren going....... "...head on collision....." Sounds like something I've seen occur all too often, over-taking another vehicle when going around a turn or another reason the view is obstructed from seeing oncoming traffic.

While I do understand and sort of agree with what you are saying I'm also thinking: My polio, smallpox vaccinations as well as a handful of tetanus shots weren't created by my neighbor and expensive.

Good for you. Nice to know. Thanks for keeping everyone informed.

Let me add.... a reputable company who is knowledgeable with internet security will generate a secured message center within their website and use that place to communicate as well as provide forms. Then they would give you a quick email or PM telling you to check the secure message location. Opening and downloading attachments can be dangerous.

Back in 2011 Chiang Mai immigration required me to provide a copy of my 1040 tax return to get an extension approval based on marriage. During that time an affidavit using the US Embassy assistance was enough for income verification but that single time for me they also requested my a copy of my 1040...

Only a fool with a lot of time to waste would go through those threads.... I will wait to see how and if I'm affected when the time comes. Until it does come it can be anyone's guess what will occur. Even the so-called tax pros have no idea exactly what may or may not occur.

These are some of my current 'go to' snacks that I enjoy and probably over indulge in. Just give me my snacks and a few bottles of Lao Dark and I'm a happy camper. What are some of your favorite snacks?
