Trump Declared in 'Exceptional Health' After Latest Check-Up
Txs. I was surprised to see it is essentialy 64 y.o.....makes even less sense that we have commanders in chief in their 80's along with way too many others in critical positions to include judges and senators, The mandatory retirement age for a U.S. general is 64 years old, with exceptions allowing for deferment until age 66 by the Secretary of Defense or until age 68 by the President. Additionally, generals must retire after 40 years of service unless they are reappointed

Trump Declared in 'Exceptional Health' After Latest Check-Up
There should be a maximum age requirement for all major govt jobs to include potus all of congress governors supreme court generals etc. It would be great if these people would "police" themselves and admit they are too old to handle the jobs. Good luck with that. Way too many old people get a job for life and their egos are so big that they will never admit that yes the vast majority of people do lose some amount of mental acuitiy as they get into their 70's and 80's. The idea of a lifetime appointment like the supreme court is absurd. Of course the people who would have to create a new law and vote for it are the very ones that don't want it to change as they are adicted to fame power and money. Mental decline as well as giant egos are/were on display every single day by current as well as previous potus , supremes, and certainly by several senators and congress. Old age and senelity does not care if you are a dem or a repub.

Trump Declared in 'Exceptional Health' After Latest Check-Up
Since Trump is in perfect health and since Trump is totally innocent in Epstein saga and since Trump has the most "transparent presidency ever? and since he loves nothing more than to brag about how very perfect and very innocent and very brilliant he is then here's a suggestion: Release all the medical tests and files. Release all the epstein files. Release tax returns. Release college transcripts. Also lets see that FBI tape of his bestie accepting a paper bag with 50 k cash while we are at it.

Trump a peacemaker ? Don't make me laugh !
The big "peace" is a few hours old. Might be a good idea to wait a few days/weeks/months to see IF IF IF it actually really results in peace or bombs start flying again before celebrations.

Thailand to Reconsider Cannabis Laws Amid Industry Concerns
Great idea. Let's also ban booze which causes way way more violence and attracts lots of total idiots who would be much bettter off to give up booze and ONLY smoke pot.

Bangkok Launches Smoking Crackdown to Improve Air Quality
One of the dumbest things i ever did was to get addicted to cigs as a teen. One of the smartest things I ever did was when I finally once and for all gave them up. It is a horrible addictive, nasty, expensive habit that has ruined many lives.

Bangkok Launches Smoking Crackdown to Improve Air Quality
He is obviously suggesting that vaping nicotine is way way less obnoxious and irritating to others than firing up a cigarette with smoke that lingers and drifts around. The reality is most smokers are totally addicted to nicotine and vaping is for sure less smell and "smoke" . Nicotine addicts are gonna get their nicotine one way or the other. I don't care for either but if the choice is sitting somewhere that somebody is smoking or someone who is vaping there is little to no doubt that vaping is less offensive. Our condo pool has all sorts of no smoking signs all over with 5000 baht "fines". And of course there are always a few who still fire up their stinky cigs. Fortunately most nicotine addicts seem to vape and for sure that is better than smelling the smoke.

Are you a cheap Charlie?
It is a fine line between being cheap and being stupid or irresponsible. There is absolutely nothing wrong with anyone who lives within their means. It's the two week look at me wannabe millionaires many of whom are up to their eyeballs in debt that are the stupid ones.

British Teen Vanishes in Thailand Near Myanmar Border
A lot of people do a lot of stupid things at age 19. Most come away ok and sit and tell their stupid escapade stories in bars at age 70. Some got incredibly lucky to survive their stupidity. I am one of them and know many many others that did a lot of dumb stupid reckless things but a little good luck came my way and I lived for another day. Some are quick to criticize and jump to all sorts of conclusions as to what this one did or didn't do and where he may be now. Hoping he turns up ok.

Phuket MP: Revise Visa Policy to Curb Tourist Misconduct
Why not also ban booze which no doubt causes way way way more problems than "weed users". Talk about low intellect have you ever been in a bar or club or restaurant or hotel or even a street full of drunks? I'll take the weed users every time as way way way less violent and aholes than the drunks.

Anti-vaxxers behave the same as cults to attract followers
The claim that mRNA vaccines are not recommended for anyone is false and has been spread through misinformation. Leading health authorities, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO), continue to recommend mRNA vaccines for specific populations, particularly for protection against severe disease, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19.

Trump: "Whatever the hell they served us"
yes i was glad to hear that he will reduce prescription prices by 1500% but a bit sad to learn from him that over 300 million americans died from drug overdoses..guess 50 million of us can take over everything now as long as we don't die from tylenol no doubt he also ended the civil war ww1 ww2 and korea..he would have likely also single handed won the vietnam war if he had not had those nasty bone spurs as otherwise he would have been the rambo fighter of all times.

Thai PM Anutin Urges Action on Strong Baht Currency
The tide comes in, the tide goes out. Most of Thailand still offers incredible bargains compared to a major chunk of the rest of the world. Do i wish the baht would weaken. Sure. Can I do anything about it? No. Try comparing rents in an ocean front condo in many Thai places with ocean front condos around the world. Then compare the HOA fees of most Thai condos with HOA fees in Florida etc.

Lord Mandelson's Shocking Epstein 'Best Pal' Birthday Message
Tip of the iceberg....will be interesting to see all the names as they are released and all the varied lies, excuses, etc that will be floated to explain how so many of Epsteins best "pals" saw no evil heard no evil and spoke no evil"... I suspect most normal people might have a bit of a clue what their "best pal" was up to unless they were dumb as a bucket of mud. No doubt experts will examine Trumps birthday book signature and zero doubt even if they say it is 100% sure he signed the birthday book he will scream "fake news". So if Trump didn't send the letter who and why did anyone decide 20 or so years ago to go to all the trouble to make and send a fake forged letter from Trump during his "best pal" days with Epstein. Anyone want to buy a bridge?
