As he said, you got the first part wrong,He is married to a Thai, As far as posting in this forum while not living here anymore, Why not? Can he not have developed a connection with Thailand from when he lived here and tries to keep that connection by participating in this forum ? Also keep abreast of conditions in his wife's country? Someday they might want to come back. I am married to a Thai, I now live here, but we had left Thailand for a few years, and I think you will be surprised to know that I did not have to surrender my posting privileges while we lived in the US, then we came back a few years ago , and if the now tax situation affects me adversely we might leave again, or have to reduce my time here to less than six months and if I do I might still want to keep a Connection with Thailand.

I agree with NOW NOW. shout an Email to the Korean embassy explaining your situation and ask for advice, It could be that you don't need a visa, but some other authorization, best to be prepared.

We all seem to have a short memory. I have no love lost for Hillary, and the Clintons in general, but she did win the popular vote, and the Comey surprise a few days in the election was not her fault. IMO if it was not for Comey putting his thumb on the scale Hillary would had been the first female president.

I agree

I think you can , (of course ask the local immigration authorities) but you will have to go through immigration in Korea to exit the airport.

The New York post is a rag and a mouthpiece for Murdoch. It has it's own agenda , mostly aligned with trump for the time being.

And he has the best words

The only think obnoxious are you characterizations Later for you.

First I RESENT CHARACTERISING MY POST STYLE AS OBNOXIOUS Your style in this instance is trampesque and requires an apology. . I am not going to make value judgments one way or another,I don't know the man ,a few weeks ago I had never heard of the man, I only know what has been reported. , The fact remains that it has been reported that in the past he has opposed a two state solution and right or wrong the perception out there is that he is pro Israeli to the detriment of the Palestinians, and it will hurt to the affects that some who would had otherwise voted for Hattis would not with a shapiro ticket. Of course now that he has national inspirations would walk back past positions , all politicians do. Perhaps he is sincere perhaps he is not, I don't know what is in the heart of the man, but I do know this, You can bet the republicand will jump all over it, and beat him up over the head with it. First Principles. What id the input? IMO is to prevent trump from getting in power.

He also has a problem with the teacher's unions because of his support for school vouchers, which would defund poor school districts.

Kelly would be my choice but he is a Senator and would have to give up his seat, another Democratic Senator will be appointed by the Democratic governor (Polis) , but whoever is appointed will be up for reelection during the mid-terms that would favor the opposition party, and the Democrats can't afford to lose a seat in the Senate. Shapiro seems to be the sweetheart of the Media, he would help with Ohio, but he would hurt for three reasons. He is Jewish and there those who will not vote for the ticket because of that, as unfortunate as it is, its true. . He is a strong supporter of Israel's policy toward the Palestinian, and there are many , including the youth vote who will not vote for someone who supports the genocide,and apartheid policies. And he is a strong supporter of school vouchers , that will put him at odds with the NEA (National teachers Union) IMO , if she picks Shapira, say hello to another four years of president trump. Tim Walz brings Minnesota to the table, has no negatives that I know of, He is very likable in a down to earth kind of way. Pete Buttigieg is Intelligent, articulate, and likable, other than that I am not sure what else he brings to the table as far as enhancing Harris' electability . I think he would be outstanding for a major cabinet appointment to build up his CV and a shot at the presidency in the future. I don't know enough about the rest to have an opinion.

The most prosperous time in human history, The longest lifespans. Lowest child mortality. Highest education rate, As a percentage of population the least people getting killed in wars. The list goes on and on.

He is a sociopath and completely transactional. He will try to get the best possible deal he can. If it looks like he cant possibly win, he as you said" will try to leverage what support he has to extort some sort of a deal under the threat that if a deal is not made he would cause trouble. As disappointing as it is to many, including me, trump will never see a day of jail. As unfair as it is, Jail is not for the rich and powerful.

I agree it does

trump is not scared, He will debate Harris just as soon as he is allowed to release his tax returns.

Did you fall asleep?

How is it working?

Mob mentality is not Thai thing , it's a human thing . The above scenario has occurred and could with variations occur anywhere.

Good advice. I will think about it.

All these and more , As I said but don't hurt repeating , I am a terrific guy and a wonderful person. She just loves to annoy me.Right before I go in the kitchen she always shows me how clean it is. Like I am blind. and always complains about my cloths on the floor, like it is my fault gravity is a thing on this planet.

My wife works diligently at annoying me When we lives in the US , she worked , and annoyed me remotely from her job most of the day. , but now that I am retired and we are living in Thailand full-time, she stays at home so she can annoy me full time. I don't know why she does this , because I am terrific guy and a wonderful person.

Thank you. I also adhere to the "Use it or lose it" thinking, and as we get older it gets so easy to lose it, and so hard to get it back. But as the saying goes "I got nothing against old age, I hope to die of old age "

What kind of dog?

Again no doubt that lifestyle changes can positively affect health outcomes. I am 67 walk several KM 4-5 times a week or ride my bike , work out in the gym, and do laps in the pool. I enjoy a mostly Mediterranean diet, and take supplements. No Processed foods. For breakfast I am Juicing it ( Tomato, beets, carot, celery.and a dash of tabasco. Yet I have elevated BP. I am highly offended offended when someone calls me lazy . These are some of the question one needs to ask when thinking about the issue. Does cholesterol affect BP? Do stress hormones affect BP? Does physiology affect BP? Do any of these things have a big genetic component? Can diet and exercise eliminate them? Does aging affect BP, can diet eliminate aging?

I no longer even watch the games or pay attention to them. A huge commercial enterprise IMO. Their should be returned to the country of their origin, and should be partly financed by a fee paid by each participating country. The fee should be means tested and based on national GDP. There should also be a section for independent athletes that should be free, except for a small administrative fee. And end all these nonsense.
