It's called a super moon. Closer to the earth by about 25k miles. Causes a tide about 1 ft higher. Or maybe it's the melting polar ice caps.

4% to the dealer. Plus likely 3% foreign transaction fee from your home country bank, unless you have one of the few that don't charge that fee. Are you sure you want to do that?

My take on it is a bit different than the standard view. The Thai woman is not necessarily playing the long game. She may be just what you're looking for and genuine. Some years into the relationship, she has friends/family that see she has a rich(to them) falang and they decide they want some of it, so they start whispering in her ear about how “she“ can get all his money. Then the story reverts to the standard one and she kicks him out. Of course the “whispering“ friends/family then start working on her to get whatever they can. But we don't hear this part of the story very often although I'm sure it's quite common.

Not as scary as Trump getting a second term.

Probably a mistype. Meant 215 kilos.

The devil went down to Georgia?

Thanks. I'll wait till I'm back from Canada in October and do it then. It looks pretty easy. Anyone else wants the info, the starting point is here: https://www.international.gc.ca/country-pays/thailand-thailande/bangkok-info.aspx?lang=eng#PS

Any info would be helpful. How long does it take? Better to do here or in Canada? What do I need for docs like birth certificate etc. Thanks.

Thousands of deep-sea octopuses gather on the flanks of a seamount off California’s coast. But until recently, scientists weren’t sure why these otherwise solitary animals were congregating. New research suggests they are seeking warmth to help their babies hatch more quickly. The Davidson Seamount’s “Octopus Garden” was discovered in 2018, when researchers onboard the Ocean Exploration Trust research vessel Nautilus were exploring a rocky spot on the seafloor that was about two miles below the surface. The team spotted a pair of octopuses through a camera on a remotely operated vehicle (ROV), says Amanda Kahn, an ecologist at Moss Landing Marine Laboratories and San Jose State University, who was on the Nautilus that day. After observing the pair for a bit, the operators started to lift the ROV off the rocks to move on—until they saw something unusual. “Up ahead of us were streams of 20 or more octopuses nestled in crevices,” Kahn says. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-hot-secret-behind-a-deep-sea-octopus-garden/

And I thought it was due to their low intelligence and lack of advanced education.

Yes. Whites with the only thing going for them being the color of their skin are having a hard time.

Actually I believe this is only the case for photo tickets. I don't know of any county that makes the vehicle owner responsible for an in person ticket.

Thanks. It's always good to know how things work. I guess Thailand is attempting to get closer to the first world. Would a ticket for a 1 week expired license also be charged to the owner? The cop was a bit miffed I wouldn't give him the payola.

That implies that the owner/renter of the vehicle is responsible for the tickets of whoever is driving the vehicle. Correct?

Tax/insurance for renewing your license plate? If only renting then no problem?

I think the title says it all.

Clearly, if the scenario is as described, the moto driver is at fault as he (she) attempted to pass a parked truck without making sure it was clear.

This is news? There was an incident in China maybe 10 years ago where they were taking an elevator out of service. They sent it to the lowest level and disabled it. Turns out they forgot to check and some lady was still in the elevator when they shut it down. Months later they found the body. Now that's news. Hell of a way to go.

Well one good thing is that most of them will go to the southern areas where the Muslim population is higher.

Good christians. Now there's an oxymoron if I ever heard one.

About time. That area needs it's own NATO equivalent.

No matter how well you look after yourself, there will come a time when you will need the help.

So when you die and get buried, if they don't get paid every year they dig you both up and send you to the landfill?

Hardly. If he took the 400 million his father gave him in the 60's and invested it in the s&p 500 he would be worth much more than the paltry billion he's worth now. And he wouldn't be facing prison in multiple indictments.

But they're spending so much on juliani's defence that there won't be any left. Oops, looks like juliani has been hung out to dry and he's almost broke. Trump only pays legal fees for co-indicted people that he's trying to stop from flipping.
