  1. Photos are for others to look at - - mirror mirror is just for you...
  2. Yes. It just seems that way to me... 88 is very good. I was upper 90s forever - and then... even Scuba Scuba started making fun of me and he never met me... he calls me "diabetes legs" though mine are still quite shapely. But that's what happens when people have an IQ in the area of your blood sugar, they try and make themselves feel smart by having disdain for others blood sugar level and other misfortunes too probably.
  3. that they know of - and if 60% have diabetes - you are there...
  4. Why do men wear neckties?
  5. Everyone is pre-diabetic unless they are already diabetic.
  6. Check with Scuba - - he has a 6th sense for other people's diabetes...
  7. what part of 'fun' and 'tradition' do you ont understand? Why do you eat or sleep or spend time with your family when you could be working?
  8. Yes, and the question is - - how long will you wait for the food? What if it doesn't come in 20 or 30 minutes? After 25 minutes, I inquired and was told another 2 minutes - after 45 minutes, I walked out.
  9. Sure, but this was not a situation of waiting for a delivery at home. I was a walk in customer. I felt badly - - but felt I had been treated badly - there were no customers but I did see family members walking in and out of the kitchen looking quite well fed...
  10. After 25 minutes, I asked how much longer - - 2 minutes they told me - I waited 15 more minutes and left.
  11. First, I was a walk in at a restaurant - Sitting in the restaurant. Second my home is an hour away and I did not want home delivery. I wanted to bring something with me to a friends place for her and her friends to have lunch.. I live too far away for home delivery and have also never had food home delivered, So, after 25 minutes I asked when my food would be ready - they told me 2 minutes. After another 15 minutes, I walked out, though they told me it was nearly ready. My question was not about home delivery - it was how long would you sit in a restaurant and wait? ps - it was not food that I could or would have wanted to make at home.
  12. After how many minutes? Not Grab.
  13. No, I gave them my home address so they can ship it
  14. And how much electric [in baht] will that give me per month? Is it finally at a point where it is worth it?
  15. Indian Restaurant about 3 pm - not a big order - 3 dishes and a bread and rice... last customers left as I was entering...
  16. So, you went into the tire shop rather than returning to the owner because you want to save money and cheat the owner who probably would have fixed it for free... and then before you could cheat the owner, you got cheated... sounds like you might deserve the situation you bought yourself into.
  17. kill the poor and middle class - SAVE the frogs?
  18. only if it goes up... who knows how to value bitcoin...
  19. probably the growing up in a Buddhist land that has different values. We tend to be more serious about things like our work etc... in Thai language they use the English word 'serious' - everyone understands the word but there is no positive connotation for the word serious. They tend to live more in the present moment with less anxiety. Sure, I can go on but then you might learn something about the culture and how and why the people are different.
  20. Hot Sun - doesn't like flaming?
  21. It is all new territory and we don't know what will happen. Anything can happen. SS can be cut entirely. As to expats, bank transfers can be stopped. Bank accounts can be closed and confiscated for no valid reason. Currencies can be devalued. The greatest factor that affects my net worth is the $ to THB exchange rate. I try and diversify - a smaller than usual amount in equities, bonds, treasuries and an increasing amount of money here in Thai baht for which I sacrifice earning potential.. quite the crap game out there - -
  22. Do you think they might consider making the seats a bit wider and more comfortable?
