No aircon. So using oil means I can not object to expanding oil facilities, prefer environmental options over oil, believe alternatives are required if only due to  dwindling supplies, and try to use as little energy as possible?

Sweat on.

Thai narcolepsy:

have to get up early for work, but never go to sleep on time. There is mostly some alcohol involved so the sleep is half as good. Then there is this heat that makes me wanna sleep.

Combined with mai phen rai and there you have your narcolepsy. 

It's not a disease doctor, it's a culture thing.

Chuchai was paying Jaruchat on behalf of Yoovidhyah.

 

Lan was the gofer/in-between/"accident" planner.

 

Jaruchat asked for more money to lie.

 

When that was refused he threatened to make it all public.

 

An "accident" was arranged.

 

Somehow the phone identified (or was thought to have identified) the deal, all of the participants, and their negotiations that led Jaruchat to be where he was on the night of his death.

 

 

 

The ultimate plot, LOL. Never mind the phone. the phone companies have records of who called who. Links can still be made or else submit some old fashioned interrogation????

There you go, 'visit a Thai jail and for an extra $200 you can spent the night, and for an extra $100 you can hear the loud noises of the locks closing at 8.00 pm and re-opening at 5.00 am. And for another $100 you can shower with the prisoners before you leave.

 

Can't fail, every tourist will love it.

Would it be possible it close it down and maybe reopen it in a year?

I know that is not what you want but maybe that is a possibility. If you "pause" it then you can later decide if you press play or stop.

Agree, specially because OP writes it is like home for him. Is he living in the same building, owned or not? If so he has a place to live and with possible some income from pension, etc. he might survive, supposing there is no payroll.

Worth hanging on as; when biz gets back many of the competition has gone and the good times van come back again.

But Gonzo, age is a factor too. Might be time for you to stop altogether, dunno.

1) I find some amazing architecture around Bangkok

2) Food's great, although most western offerings suck

3) Hot and muggy, although not life changing - lived in southern Arizona for many years. showering helps and there's always air.

4) Welcome to the world. But I find it less so here than in the States.

5) Been happily married to a Thai woman for 20 years

6) I avoid farangs

7) Ride whenever possible. Traffic sucks

6) It's hard not to say it, but what's you doin here on tvf

Hi IvGeg, 

Only loosers pay for love. 

Try dating, same normal people. 

Have relationship with sex worker will be trouble.

 

In Thailand sex workers are very low class. 99% Thai people will think you idiot if do that.

You will not have friends in normal society if do that. Her friends and family will want money same.

Life will be terrible. You will hate thailand if do that. You will only be friends with other sex tourist. Sad.

 

Good luck Sir.

Losers pay for sex, not for love. They know that.

The real losers are the ones (like me) that fall in love to easily and pay for the consequences afterwards. So my take as well is 'rent not buy'.

For the rest of your post, I salute you.

Facial hair is very fashionable now, it used to be that facial hair was grown mainly by guys with unattractive faces, think of all the good looking celebrities in the past, how many had facial hair?

Elvis, Ricky Nelson, Humperdinck etc, etc.

Yeah. but they had a lot of hair on top. Many times a beard is a compensating thing for bald guys.

I think beards are okay. Growing hair around your mouth? I already have a hole with hair around it. Do you need two?

Let's talk about girls with or without. Seems more exciting to me than beards. Off topic you'd say, do I really have to start a new thread for this? ????

Your reasoning is very flawed. Dengue fever is not passed on from human to human contact.

 

So should we go on lockdown for anything that causes more deaths than Covid-19?

 

HIV, TB, Cancer, Dementia, Malaria, suicide even road fatalities cause more deaths annually then Covid-19!

 

Well, you gave the answer yourself. After all is now known about the Covid hoax and the very little percentage of death, there is no reason for special measures anymore and there never was actually.

The chance of a car accident is greater but still people drive cars. Why are they not scared? It's not about personal contact you might say, but then you give your own examples of HIV and TB.

Rather than changing their name, why doesn't the team so something to support their local native populations - reduced price tickets to games, finding their kid's education, etc. I'm sure the team has plenty of money. Or is this not the US way?

Question might be, why did they choose that name to begin with.

>Having problems coming up with excuses for him again?<

No excuses for him/her/it; is to blunt for that. Thought I try it another way to sting him/her/it.

Was there ever a reason to ?

 

 

I don't recall dengue ever being an airborne infection  -  or passed on by human contact.

Irony maybe as the number of death is higher than of Covid. Get it now?

Was there ever a lockdown over dengue?

UN dictators (NWO) better shut up or even better go to hell.

Same goes for the NGO's.
