  1. "It was reported that Rungroj held firearm-related offenses in 2023 as locals reported that he often shot at the sky." Which is the first signal that the gun owner should probably not have guns. Responsible gun owners don't go firing rounds into the sky. This is tragic.
  2. None of the above. Those categories are unfortunately very cliche and as such they miss the mark.
  3. Anyone have a recommendation for a commercial product to clean tile/grout mold?
  4. glap glap glap
  5. "A game-changer in green economy?" Green? Right. 🙄 And the price? Privatize the profits; socialize the killer air pollution. Too bad commoners. “Outdated laws stifle our capacity to meet domestic demand, forcing us to import at a premium.” You mean, like laws protecting the environment? Those outdated laws. Those laws need to be enforce and more laws legislated. Anyway, the concept of using food to power ICE is rather ass-backwards.
  6. She has pain and swelling in the temporomandibular joint and pain when she opens her mouth too far. This surfaced after two rather lengthy dental appointments but not associated with any of the work she had done. Right now she is taking diclofenac for 5 to 7 days for the swelling. I suggested a night-guard (I use one myself) but she's not interested. "You can lead a horse to water......"
  7. My wife has developed a case of TMJ. Her dentist (at one of the major dental clinics in CM) has not been much help in that the only suggestion was not to open her mouth so wide when eating. That answer didn't inspire any confidence in me. @Sheryl I've looked online and can't find any doctors or clinics which specialize in TMJ in Chiang Mai outside of over-priced 'boutique clinics' which cater to medical tourism. Any first-hand advice from someone who has been treated would be welcome.
  8. Au Der auf German buffet - I'd be interested, but, no place to park that I can see.
  9. Be careful with this site as it has an expired SSL certificate.
  10. The problem with cranberry juice is that it's loaded with sugar as cranberries are very sour.
  11. There a serious risks involved in holding "paper gold." Those risks can be looked up online. Physical gold is a hedge against instability in the financial markets. It has it's own risks too. Then you start to see the allure of Bitcoin.
  12. 675 / 25 = $27. Today's spot silver is $24.26. That's a 11% markup. The premium is a rip-off by US standards (5.5x the selling premium in the West). If you are in the US or Canada you can buy from reputable precious metal dealers at a 0.8% and 2.0% markup on gold and silver bullion respectively (more or less but dealer are competitive).
  13. When the powers to be turn a blind eye to usurious lending, well, eyes are lost it seems.
  14. "New rule for next year," wife and I were told by our Immigration office after dancing for them. "Only accept new TM-7 on counter." This after submitting the fillable TM-7 I've been submitting for years. So what is the "new TM-7 on counter?" It's the old TM-7 with about three different purple stamps on the front and back. "Must fill out in pen." Well of course. "Dance farang man - dance."
  15. Dynasties are a danger to democracy.
  16. It the farang equivilant to a Thai guy's mia noi. Basically a rent a gik, but with no strings attached unless you don't have the sense to not get involved.
