  1. Your fingers have fingertips, but your toes don't have toetips. Yet. you can tiptoe. but not tipfinger.
  2. A Greek and an Irishman found themselves in a Starbucks one afternoon, casually chatting about the proud achievements of their respective cultures over steaming lattes. The Greek leaned back with a smile and said, “You know, we built the Pantheon, not to mention the Temple of Apollo.” The Irishman nodded, taking a sip of his coffee. “Impressive, no doubt, but it was us Irish who discovered the significance of the Summer and Winter Solstices.” Not to be outdone, the Greek added, “And don’t forget, it was the Greeks who laid the foundations for advanced mathematics.” “Fair enough,” the Irishman replied, “but the Irish were the ones who crafted the first timepieces.” Sensing his moment to triumph, the Greek smiled knowingly. “Ah, but remember, it was the ancient Greeks who introduced the idea of sex as a pleasurable activity!” The Irishman paused, set his cup down, and grinned. “That’s true,” he said, “but it was the Irish who got women involved.”
  3. You are lucky! I gave up around 16 years ago, but hate the smell of tobacco smoke now.
  4. Yes. I too avoid Fridays & weekends. Large amounts, when you select for property purchase it delays 24 hrs (my experience with transfers to Thailand from Australia).
  5. Agree. Has happened to me in a couple of countries.
  6. Great idea. But who would be interested in it?
  7. Here Microsoft says credit OR subscription https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/skype/how-do-i-make-a-call-in-skype-64dfe458-91e5-4dba-a89d-4a259e9b0f27 https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/skype/how-much-does-it-cost-to-call-mobiles-and-landlines-from-skype-e0750859-8e92-4c86-acc4-5e464db939bb
  8. God help Thailand! God have mercy on Thailand and it's people.
  9. Seems there are foods that "trigger" MSG toxicity in sensitive individuals. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5938543/
  10. Everything in moderation and with me it's definitely the case with MSG. - That's one good rule of the thumb, I believe.
  11. Exactly. I've read and heard many stories about MSG, the reason I started this thread to see what results I would get from people with first hand experience. If I remember right, couple of decades ago MSG had a very bad reputation, but now seems to have changed.
  12. Never heard about them. Replies like yours make people sick of public forums. Thank you. Enjoy your day.
  13. We have heard of this food additive for a long time, and it does not have a good reputation. Is there really any solid scientific tests that are available regarding its bad effects on health? Has any country banned it? Interesting to know the real facts.
  14. So, does it mean one cop kneeling on an already immobilized (handcuffed and lying face down) and detained mans neck, until death, while two cops are just watching the drama, is just fine and fully justified? Should not the bi-standers also be taken to task?
  15. Of course, I agree with you, and I guess many competent Thai pilots are up in the sky doing a good job, contrary to some AN members. TBH my reply was only intended to make the other poster happy to end the meaningless argument.
