Like you I prefer younger beautiful women. However, we will lose this game in any event, won't we?
How long can that go on, a young woman turns 30, then 35, and before you know it she turns 40. And we're still the tasteful men with standards.
How are we going to live with a 40 or 50 year old woman? Are we condemned to have to give up on a once perfect partner in all cases until we're geriatrics ourselves?
Nah. Although I love younger women, mine is in her early 30's now, and is still really lovely. And I am getting older too. Her other qualities mean alot more to me now, than ever before. So, I think I will be just fine. Heart and soul, a great companion, and loving being with someone count for alot, especially when she is as amazing as she is, on a consistent and daily basis. Even with the best of the best, I never experienced her level of emotional consistency back in the US. Never even close.

I would not call myself addicted, but I love Lazada. They are fast, efficient, alot of products are reasonable, and delivery with Kerry is great. And what is the alternative here? Not like we have a dozen similar platforms to work with. I think they do a great job. As long as you are a discriminating buyer, do your research, and price shop, Lazada offers a great service.

So much bad information out there. How does bringing your own food endanger anyone? If I eat a sandwich, I will spread a disease, which I do not have to begin with? There is an astonishing degree of insanity happening, and a real zombie apocalypse mentality setting in.
The social distancing on planes will be an absolute delight.

I like my women to be ready to bang when I feel like it, weigh less than 50Kg, and be under 35 years old.
Nothing else really matters.
Well, there you have it. No idea how old you are, but if you are within the range of most of us, you have about a zero percent chance in the US, if you are worth less than $50,000,000, or are unwilling to shell out $1000 for an hour or so. And the parameters you set out, are utterly delightful!

Extremists?
Yes. As a democrat, I consider Sanders and Warren to both be to the extreme left in their policies. There is still a center, and I think a moderate has the greatest chance of winning. There is alot of "Trump fatigue" out there, and many conservative voters will support Biden. Many just did not know who Trump was, when they elected him, and now consider him a far lesser man, and a far more divisive and hateful man, than they assumed he was.
Biden is very electable now. Especially if he picks the right running mate. Any suggestions?

There is so much bad information out there. This is not an airborne virus. Wearing a mask when in crowds, and around small groups can be useful. A mask serves no useful function where you are walking you dog in a lightly populated area like Malibu. Safety is a good thing. Belief in the Zombie Apocalypse is not.

Thank you for your post. Many of us enjoy very good lives here. Sure we have some issues. But, I would have issues with anyplace I lived. I am able to live quite well here, without a fortune in income. I have been blessed with the kind of woman I never would have been able to find in the US. Never. It just does not happen. Most of my friends back there barely even date anymore, as the whole "process" is so difficult. Unless you are under 30, and very, very handsome, forget about it. I do not know about the rest of you, but I like my woman to be able to express the dignity and beauty within femininity. That seems to be encouraged here, and nearly forbidden back there.
Thailand is still reasonable. It used to be cheap. Has not been cheap for a long time. But, it is still reasonable. I know people who pay 10,000 baht a month for newer 3 bedroom houses in nice towns. In major cities in the US? $2000-3800 a month. That is 120,000 baht!
I had my motorbike seat recently redone on my scooter. 400 baht. A friend of mine had similar work done in the US. $275.
I recently had a guy come over and insulate my ceiling. I bought the insulation and paid him 2000 baht for labor. In the US? $800 and up.
I recently had an electrician do some work on the house. Nearly a full day of work. Paid him 1000 baht. In the US? $800 and up.
Body work? Had my car gone over, removed a few dents, repainted the front end, and touched up the whole car. Looks like new. Cost 8,000 baht. In the US? $1,700 and up. Those guys are not neurosurgeons. So, why are the shops charging $300 an hour?
An oil change for my scooter costs me 200 baht, with Castrol oil. In the US? $75.
When I travel here I stay in nice four star hotels in Bangkok. 1800-2000 baht. In the US? $130 for a crappy motel. $200 and up for a nice room, that is not as nice as the room I get in Bangkok for $60. On the road here? Decent rooms for $15 to $20. Room service for a decent meal? $5-10. In the US. $30 and up.
I eat well here. In a smaller town you can get a three course meal for 200-250 baht. In the US? 2000 baht and up, plus tax and a nearly mandatory 15% tip. And I get more gratitude here for a 20 baht tip, than I do in the US for a $20 tip. And better service too, with the exception of specialized areas, like wine service.
I visit the emergency room here to visit a specialist, and with x-rays I am out the door for 2000 baht, at a private hospital. In the US? $300-2000. A visit to a specialist in the US? $200-400 for a six minute visit.
Friends of mine, who are single, enjoy the company of a young, beautiful woman for a couple of hours, for 2500 baht. In the US? $800 an hour now for a decent looking gal, and she will likely have an attitude and not be light hearted and fun.
I could go on and on, all day long. I live at a level here, that I would never be able to live at, in the US, in most of Europe, in Oz, or Canada. Does not mean I could not move there. But, unless someone was paying me $1,000,000 a year, why would I do that?

One thing most conservatives are not aware of, is that a large majority of democrats do not support the far left wing of the party. Personally, I think AOC is rather cute, and I love the way she stands up to the old guard. But, her policies, and many of the positions of both Warren, and Sanders are way out there, and far too extreme for most of us Dems. I am centrist. And so is Joe. Let us hope he stays that way, and does not pander to the extremists.
If he does not waver, he will win in November. The nation needs a positive change. Say no to tweets!

The bar business was already declining here, and has been for the past 10 years. This will be the nail on the coffin for many, that were just holding on. Hopefully a good many will survive, and no doubt we will see alot of new ones over time. Perhaps the insane bar fines will drop! Bangkok was getting out of control. Maybe we can refer to this as a PMC (positive market correction).

All Biden has to do at this point, is remain alive and coherent and he has this election in the bag. Trump was knocked out by Covid one minute into the first round. Mylie Cyrus could beat Trump, at this point.
Get used to saying President Biden! He will make a decent president. Alot more than I can say for the current occupant of the office. The entire planet will rejoice, when Trump is shown the door.
America may even be able to regain some of it's lost honor and prestige. Maybe.

I am getting pretty sick of the WHO. They seem to be using scare tactics, and like the fabulously corrupt CDC, and FDA, their agenda seems corrupt, and not the slightest bit noble. It appears that alot of what they do is politically driven, and my impression is that they are just an arm of Big Pharma.

This is such a common mistake. Most women want to step up the timetable, and if a man is not strong, and does not stick to his principals, or have a determined agenda, he is often overwhelmed by her lack of patience, and the fact that alot of women want it all, and they want it yesterday. Some of us are blessed. Some of us found a good one. I took 9 years before marrying my woman. And she has become a BETTER version of herself, since we got married! In a million years, that would not have happened in the US. She is smart, funny, light hearted, kind, affectionate, charming, super supportive of me, wonderful to be around, and has an amazing family.
The biggest part of the problem here, is the extreme emasculation that is taking place in the West. Most men, in the US, Europe, and Oz, are no longer real men, when it comes to dealing with their women. Their women have made their lives so difficult, and alot of women have gotten so far away from their innate femininity, and have become dominant, and super controlling, and men just go along with it. Most men have become so hungry for love, or emotionally desperate for some kindness, and TLC. And most are so desirous of being around a real woman, who knows how to act like a woman, and manifest the dignity, within femininity. So, it is easy for the con artists, to take advantage of emotionally wounded men, who seem to be willing to do anything to regain a semblance of normality in their lives, with a decent woman.
For the men out there who are trying to find their way, in this rather complicated arena, always remember one thing.
Take your time. If it is good, it is only going to get better. If there are issues, they are going to reveal themselves over time. 2 years minimum, before you commit large sums of cash, or commit to marriage. And that is two years, full time! Be a man. Man up. Now is the time to show who you are.
Alot of guys move over here, and do not realize that the same set of Western emasculation rules, do not apply here. A man is allowed to be a man here, and manhood is honored here. A ship always needs a captain, so if the guy is not willing to step up and assume a leadership position, the woman will take over, to steer the ship, for her weak partner. But, I have found that is not necessarily what they want. Do the gender proud.

your opinion.
please provide data to back it up.
Nope. Not an opinion. There is alot of science to back it up, and statistically, the numbers in the tropics are far lower, per capita, than in cooler countries. India and Brazil are the only two tropical countries with relatively high numbers, and they are both huge countries, with enormous populations. Malaysia was about the insane decision to allow Mosque services to continue, and Indonesia was all about denial. The PI? Well, what can you say about the PI?
Qasim Bukhari and Yusuf Jameel, both from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, analyzed global cases of the disease caused by the virus, COVID-19, and found that 90% of the infections occurred in areas that are between 37.4 and 62.6 degrees Fahrenheit (3 to 17 degrees Celsius) and with an absolute humidity of 4 to 9 grams per cubic meter (g/m3). (Absolute humidity is defined by how much moisture is in the air, regardless of temperature.)

Wrong. They are winning. Whatever they did here it worked. The virus is barely clinging on here. Covid itself is on life support in Thailand now. Barely a week or two and it will be gone!

If you prefer to cling to the apocalypse scenario, be my guest. Barely 20 new infections a day certainly suggests otherwise. Some will simply not be able to adjust to a life without panic or fear.

Numbers have sky rocketed in hot climates. Your opinion not mine. Philippines humid numbers big. I'm no scientist but from observation l take extra care.
The only places in the tropics where the numbers have skyrocketed are India, the PI, Brazil, Malaysia and Indonesia. Mexico to a lesser extent. Still, relatively low numbers in comparison to their populations. And in the case of India, Brazil and Indonesia, you had governments in total denial until it was too late, and huge populations, over massive areas. In the case of the PI, as usual, you had massive incompetence at the government level, combined with a really poor health care system. In Malaysia it was about the government allowing the Mullahs to dictate policy, and allow the Mosques to continue. Most of their spread happened there.
Heat, humidity and the vitamin D absorbed through the skin are huge allies against the Covid battle.

A more detailed explainer of the potential role of anti-malarial drugs like hydroxychloroquine against the COVID-19 coronavirus disease, with or without antibiotics, can be found here. Zelenko’s claims, however, rest solely on taking him at his word: He has published no data, described no study design, and reported no analysis.
Regardless, making an assertion in a blog post or in a YouTube interview that neither describes the study design nor provides the actual data used to reach a conclusion about efficacy cannot, in any way, be critically evaluated. As such, this claim is rated “Unproven.”
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/zelenko-669-coronavirus-patients/
You trust this individuals claims - really...
leaders and community groups in Dr. Zelenko's hometown of Kiryas Joel have requested he cease publicizing his new medication, or else leave them out of his statements, after he wrongly claimed that 90% of the town's population had coronavirus - a statement which the county health commissioner blasted as "irresponsible" in light of the fact that he had only tested 14 patients.
And you are falling for pure politics and PR. That means nothing to me. Clinical trials are great, when you have the luxury of time. We do not. Dr. Zelenko is a hero, and a courageous man, for trying to find a cure, when there are none available, using standardized methods. He is saving lives, while the more conventional doctors are allowing their patients to die on their watch. Sorry, we just could not do anything for you. The FDA told us to not try anything they did not condone. We will not defy the FDA, or the WHO. They know everything.
They said he had exaggerated the extent of the coronavirus outbreak in Kiryas Joel, using a small sample of his patients to predict that as many as 90% of village residents would get the virus. “Dr. Zelenko’s videos have caused widespread fear that has resulted in the discrimination against members of the Hasidic community throughout the region,” the officials wrote, disputing the figure. Zelenko said he understood the need for clinical trials but added that ignoring a hopeful possibility was also risky. “I’m a strong supporter of clinical trials,” he said. “But they take time, and that’s one thing we don’t have. The virus is here, it’s World War III, and not everyone has fully comprehended that yet.”

Time will tell the true story. All I know for certain is that if I were infected, I'd want my own doctor to be able to advice me on whether or not HCQ was a wise option...for ME! That decision should be between a patient and his/her doctor...and nobody else, and certainly not some bureaucrat with a self-serving hidden agenda.
Correct. However doctor or no doctor, if I get infected, I will be using the cocktail. Few side effects. And certainly no side effect as strong as death! And the bottom line is, that very few doctors will prescribe this, as it has not undergone the clinical trials, which means less than zero to me. Only progressive doctors, who are smart enough to think outside the box, dance on their feet, and ignore protocols that are almost totally ineffective against Covid, will try this and find success with it.
More grist for the mill-
“We are operating under a medical paradigm that is untrue,” Kyle-Sidell warned. “I believe we are treating the wrong disease, and I fear that this misguided treatment will lead to a tremendous amount of harm to a great number of people in a very short time.” Weeks later, claims from Kyle-Sidell and like-minded doctors continue to spark impassioned debate within the medical community, with some doctors moving away from the use of ventilators (smart, progressive and able to learn as they go) and others defending the current standard of care (simple minded, dogmatic, and unwilling to move away from standardized protocols, even when their patients are dying in mass).

Total nonsense. There is so much misunderstanding of this issue. Dr. Zalenko treated nearly 1,000 infected patients with this drug cocktail, just north of NYC, and how many of them died? Zero. Compared to a national average of 5%!
It is about combining the correct amounts of Zithro, Hydro and Zinc. Not chloro, which is the old version, but hydro, which is far less toxic. And it works!
For those who insist on long clinical studies, what are the alternatives? Ventilators? They are a death sentence. An 80% mortality rate.
The CDC, WHO, and especially the emtremely toxic and corrupt FDA all have an agenda. Support big pharma, at any cost. Let's wait and let them die. Wait for a costly vaccine, so Big Pharma can cash in, at the expense of humanity, and once again dominate the agenda. As hard as they are trying to deceive us, truth cannot be suppressed. I am usually accusing Trump of being incompetent. But, in this case he got it half right. Now, he needs to do some reading, to determine the correct formula. Pushing hydro on it's own is useless. But, the formula of the three drugs works like a charm, and knocks Covid out cold.
Sorry, but this homey does not play the sucker game. I have a nice supply here at home just in case. I do not take my directions from corrupt agencies with a foul agenda.
For those of you who are interested in facts and truth here it is. The Israeli government hired him. And guess what their mortality rate has been since they started using the cocktail? Very, very low.

The entire nation is going to have to contend with tourism being way down for years to come. Let us not forget the brilliant minds at the TAT specifically targeted lower and middle income Chinese and Indian tourists. Those are the ones hardest hit by the insane economic shutdown. There will not be vacation money to spend for some time. Very few wealthy tourists come to Thailand anymore, for a dozen good reasons, including xenophobia on the part of immigration and the army and extreme bungling of the industry.
Pattaya, Samui, and Phuket will be hardest hit, no doubt. Millions will remain out of work, long term.

President Trump issued a "Proclamation on Suspension of Entry as Immigrants and Non immigrants or Persons who Pose a Risk of Transmitting 2019 Novel Coronavirus" on January 31, 2020. This prevents most foreign nationals from being able to enter the U.S. if they have travelled to China within the past 14 days. President Trump issued a travel ban to European countries in March 2020.
And he continued to allow both Chinese with green cards and Americans to travel back and forth after that date, with no screening in place, allowing countless infected souls to enter the US. Huge mistake.

Outstanding news. Now, let's get the nation up and running. Millions are depending on this. Very few here have the kinds of pensions or resources many on this forum have. Easy to say let's be extra safe when you are clocking 100,000 baht a month.
It is plenty safe to end the insanity of an economic lockdown. May 1st. Make it happen please.
For the zombie apocalypse crowd, if it were going to blow up here, it would have happened much earlier when there were millions of tourists here. It has already incubated long ago.
Heat, humidity, vitamin D from the sun, or just a great job done by the authorities. Who knows? But, it is gone, baby gone!
