  1. I hope he isn't the candidate, but if he is I expect everything about it to be very interesting. I said that before he was elected and I was not disappointed in the ensuing 4 years. Joe is every bit as bad as I expected and what's worse, he's boring.
  2. I disagree, mainly because I don't think they are well educated at all.
  3. You are correct. No need to invite the bounder at all.
  4. You can buy fridge wheels, but they only go forwards or backwards. No idea if sold in Thailand. You can also cut a piece of ply right size and put loads of castors on it for them to put fridge on. My fridge ( with no wheels on the back ) sits on a DIY wheeled piece of ply for the inevitable times when something falls behind it.
  5. I think the difference between myself and some other posters is that while they believe that God will intervene in our lives, I do not. I don't think humans are of any more concern to God than any other species on planet earth, and if we exterminate ourselves, so be it. IMO if God did care, God would do something to change the insanity that has gripped the human world today, but as was mentioned in the Bible, we have had the prophets, and if we choose to ignore them our fate is of our own making. My only thought as to the future of human kind is to wonder what will replace us when we have polluted ourselves into extinction.
  6. ?????????????? Souls are above present day science to understand. Why do people think present day primitive science knows everything, when it can't even prevent cancer.
  7. Agree. I used to do that much of my life. First time was when I had a Welsh pen friend and I was farming at the time. I couldn't think of a single interesting thing to write about, but I thought that once I joined the military I'd have loads of interesting things to write about. Of course I was wrong- not about the military, which was very interesting, but because I couldn't see all the interesting things to write about farming. PS, she stopped writing to me and I don't blame her.
  8. Why is it that karma seems only to be about punishment for bad deeds? Why isn't it also about rewards for doing good deeds?
  9. Perhaps it is you that is blind to spirituality. Well known quote ( not religious either ) "there are none so blind as those that will not see"
  10. IMO she has no clue at all. Intelligent but zero common sense.
  11. The debate is IMO about whether we are part of God, or separate beings, and I am for the latter ( I may have got that wrong- if so apologies ). So for me higher self is not "God", but our "good side" as opposed to our "bad side" ( lower self where envy, avarice, greed and hate etc reside ). Some people are controlled by their lower self, some are in battle between the two, and a few are totally in their "good side".
  12. Agree. I expect protocol demands that second in line to the throne receives an invite, but I'll bet it's not expected to be accepted, or at least that she doesn't attend.
  13. That probably explains why I never liked white chocolate I bought in LOS. I loved it in NZ.
  14. Sorry, but I never had a conversation with many of them to know. The closest I got was a British teacher that said he liked working in Thailand because he got to meet lots of pretty girls at school. We never got around to his thoughts on Britain.
  15. OR Work out which degrees actually benefit society, like doctors, engineers, mathematicians, certain types of scientists, etc and give them reduced or even free university education and make the rest pay as normal. Do we really need a degree in media studies?
  16. I see it as a reaction to the LG etc community shoving it into people's faces and "annoying" ( being polite ) them.
  17. I feel sorry for Charles, more than anything. Bound by tradition in a monarchy that wouldn't accept anything less than a virgin from a noble family to marry- he never said he loved her ( he even said he didn't know what love is ), but he had to marry someone and she was "it". He loved Camilla since he met her, but let her go, which he knew was a mistake, but too late to stop her marrying someone else. All his life he was waiting to assume the position, but his mother wouldn't abdicate when he was young enough. I regret he's doing the same to William, and he's in the wrong IMO, but he obviously wanted it too much to do the right thing.
  18. and so it begins. Most countries that are not under active threat don't normally increase war spending by that much unless they see a potential use of it, IMO.
  19. She was accepted at first. IMO she blew it. I don't think anyone disses their home country in public if they love it. If they do, it says to me that they don't love it. IMO the anti press thing was self inflicted- the media and most of the public loved the wedding.
  20. If he loved Britain he'd live there. It's not like he'd be living in a row house with a leaky roof, is it?
  21. I hope he gives up before the election, but I have slim hope of that. Hopefully he won't get the financial backing that any POTUS campaign requires.
  22. I think he went in with the intent to make America great again, but the constant attacks on him and the recusal of that <deleted> sessions prevented much from being done. Much of the little that he did achieve was of benefit to the US, but he wasn't able to do much.
  23. Woman's sports is pretty much dead. Anything involving strength & endurance, they simply can't compete against man. Biology is against them. Agree 100%. What female is going to compete knowing it's not a fair competition? I wonder if they can set up their own organisation that only allows biological females, or is that banned too? Hopefully the Olympics and other none American sports ban transgenders competing in women's events outside America.
  24. I think people that think they are special buy it. Agree on the taste.
