France to ban female students from wearing abayas in state schools
Huh?! How the hell did you get THAT from my post?!

France to ban female students from wearing abayas in state schools
That’s ridiculous. We have religious freedom in the west. If you want to make schools secular that’s fine by me, but telling people what they can or can’t wear is just over the top and this is coming from a flaming atheist!

France to ban female students from wearing abayas in state schools
So, if I'm a Christian then I'm not allowed to wear a cross pendant around my neck either then? It's a bit over the top, if you ask me. Also, they better prepare ASAP for terrorist attacks in the near future on French streets because they're coming. I also find it worrying that one guy has the power to decide over something like this. It very much sounds like he's enforcing his personal views on an entire nation and it's just a bit too much power for my personal taste.

Thai girl battles rhabdomyolysis after harsh school punishment
Well, just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it's not happening. I personally witnessed it numerous times. And you can contact whomever you want at that given school. If it's happening there then the headmaster definitely knows about it and is OK with it!

Looking to Import an Expensive Used Guitar
Well, be prepared to pay quite some taxes on that one. The regular non custom shop retails for 3190 something dollars, the custom shop one goes for 10K and the premium custom shop goes for 50K. If you live in Bangkok there's an official Gibson store at Central World. They might have one orcmaybe they can help you find one in Thailand. Also, the thing about the Greeny is that the neck pickup is installed reversed and if you go to the middle position it creates this out of phase almost single coil type of sound. You can do this literally to any Les Paul. So you might be better off buying a second hand Les Paul on Thailand and get the pickup and the wiring done there. The guy's at the Gibson shop at Central World can give you the number and the address of a guy who does that type of stuff. His shop is somewhere near Ramkamhaeng Rd, if I remember correctly. There's another guitar shop near the National Stadium BTS stop. I'm not sure if it's still there but they had used Les Paul's back then. If you're at National Stadium and you look towards Siam Paragon there's the big crossing right in front of you and you have to turn left there and the shop will be on the right, but I can't tell you how far away from the crossing it is. It might be one or two BTS stations.

Trump surrenders for historic fourth arrest
Newsflash: he brought this totally onto himself and now he's paying the price, deservedly so I might add, and no matter how long you're gonna twist and turn that in your head, it won't change the fact. He's a megalomaniac and he should've never become president in the first place. He will also go down as one of the worst, if not THE worst, president the USA ever had! By the way, apparently he was the first US president, whom all still alive previous presidents warned against reelecting him. If that's true it says it all!

Thailand's ex-PM Thaksin to serve 8 years in jail - court statement
The funny thing is, if he had done his sentence back then, he'd be free already for almost a decade. Having said that, I don't think he's gonna do 8 years because he wouldn't have come back for that. There's definitely some kind of deal in place.

Mother seeks aid as son’s dark turn targets family cat
I don't think it's the meth that makes him act like that. There's more than enough people who take that <deleted> and they do not become violent. Killing animals is usually how future serial killers start out and the meth might just make come out what's already in there.

Thailand’s Digital Minister Seeking Court Order to Shut Down Facebook over Fake Ads and Scams
Well, it's simple, don't buy stuff on Facebook, unless you can puck it up in person and pay with cash after inspection. It's such a shame that PayPal is only available as a business account in Thailand. They took the one thing away that actually made sense for online purchases.

Russia's Luna-25 spacecraft crashes into Moon
Of course they can: Ukraine "rebelled" against Russia, so Russia had to divert funds to "put Ukraine in its place", which short funded the space program, which lead to the accident and et voilá! ????

Teenage motorcycle courier fatally shot intervening in gang dispute
I'm from Germany and in Germany Mopeds go all the way up to 125cc and only above that do we call it a motorcycle. What you mean is what we would call a Mofa. I used the term moped instead of bike because a bike gang usually implies outlaw motorcycle gangs like the Hells Angels for example, which they clearly aren't. Most Thai bike gangs, there I said it, usually ride smaller bikes, hence mopeds in my book.

Since they know their identities, it's just a matter of time.

Food delivery driver apologizes after refusing overweight customer due to bike damage
37 Baht for a shock absorber sounds incredibly cheap, even 370 Baht would sound like a reall cheap shock and of course you can't expect anything of such low quality. I'm on his side, though.

Teenage motorcycle courier fatally shot intervening in gang dispute
That’s why there’s a link at the bottom of the story that says “full story”! ???? In a nutshell, 2 groups of moped gangs got into it, the guy who got killed went over there with some other guys to see what’s going on, only to find out that one of the guys involved in the scuffle is someone the guy who got killed had a beef with some time earlier, which caused that guy to shoot and kill him. The perpetrators are called Ice and Stamp and the cops are currently looking for them.

Teenage motorcycle courier fatally shot intervening in gang dispute
It was homemade in this case. The reason why you haven’t seen a gun shop is because they’re all concentrated in one fairly small spot along Burapha Road, starting directly north of the Old Siam Center.

Thaksin to get extra security and “adequate conveniences” while in prison
So, in other words he’s gonna get HI-So house arrest. Wouldn’t it be awesome, if they just told him that only to throw him into a medieval dungeon? I know, I know, it’s just a silly pipe dream of mine, but I’d really love that!

Thai wife wants to buy land
That could backfire severely. I saw a court video once in which a woman took a much lower paid job than the one she had before so she would have to pay less child support. She even admitted in court taking that lower paid job for that very purpose. The judge wouldn't have it and sentenced her to pay the full amount based on her previous salary. Wouldn't be surprised, if the guy who sold the caddy for 50 bucks had to pay her the difference to half the car's actual market value.
