Amazing that's smell in bacteria 'eh?

And a little tuna fish (Chippy) juice.

This isn't you is it? Asking for a friend. ????

@seedy I did some reading online and that may be the answer, at least until the hot season rolls around and I have the time to leave the car and have a full detail job inside and out. Anyway, white vinegar and water in a 1 to 1 solution, spray it liberally on the fabric, let sit for 15 minutes, and then vacuum it up with a wet/dry canister vac. I'll give that a shot and see how it works. Thanks.

Yet? No one can find a Thai Billionaire heir who killed and Thai police while under the influence of a drug? How's that work?

This is what "Smart Phone" are - Spyware 100%. You can't get rid of the bloat or the spyware which you need to accept as a EULA to use the app. Get a dumb phone and use Linux on your computer.

I'm looking for a new vet in Lamphun City (Muang Lamphun). We've taken our pets and a number of animals dropped off at the temples within our Tambon (and some from Chiang Mai when we lived there) to our current vet for well over a decade, but I keep seeing a pattern when it comes to needing surgical procedures. And it goes like this: 1. We need to take blood test; 2. Blood test no good. We can not sedate dog for operation. 3. You need to give dog these medicines for two weeks then bring back for blood test; 4a. OK. Blood test good, we can do surgery; or 4b Mai dai, Blood test no good, go back to step 3. 4c Rinse, wash, repeat.............over and over and over again. Cats too! I'm done this this. I'm not taking any animal back to this vet. 50% of them are not our own animals but animals we are funding out of our own pockets to have spayed or neuter. And No! i'm not some foundation with a US 501c who racks in literally 7 figures in non-taxable income. I'm just and elderly man with a older wife who have a really, really limited fixed income and yet trying to help the animal over-population problem in our area I'm a animal lover who actually cares enough to use a lot of my own fixed-income to help out in my own Tambon and Amphur. Two years ago i worked with a temple where they had every animal either spayed or neutered under anesthesia. I was never informed regarding the vet who did this, but I'd like to find that vet again. No blood tests, just a consent form - "Go ahead and spay and neuter them all because the the down-side is a spike in the animal population. If one or two die in order to keep 50 new pups and kittens from inhabiting this area - so be it. And? None of the animals who were neutered or spayed died. None. Zero. Nada. I tried to do this for may own and the temple animals we car for? "You sign form." OK - I signed the form, now just do it. "Mai Dai. No can do!" "Anderai." Must give medicine and come back for blood test. I'm done with Mai Dai, No Can Do! So I'm looking for a new vet. A vet in Lamphun would be best (I live in Northeast Lamphun province). But, Chiang Mai if I have to. Suggestions! Because I'm tired of the BS which I believe is more about profit then compassion. And - I care about these animals but I don't have access to a few million dollars of 'non-profit funds' to care from them. We need to spay and neuter the local "drop off" and the "throw away animal" who show up at our temple and the other temples in this area.. But I'm done with the grift and I'm not happy. We take care of our own animal 100%. I don't need anyone else's assistance (although we have taken a number of the "Throw-Away Animals" in as our own). But I need someone who isnt' going to grift us for attemping to take care of the Throwaway / Drop-off animals at our local temples in my Tambon and Amphur. So back the the original question (because I am rather ticked-off). Anyone know a vet in Lamphun who is animal oriented and not profit oriented and who can help us with spay and neutering animals who we personally - up to now - have cared for. Because folks - I'm done. Nobody is giving us the time of day for doing this. No accolades, no nothing. All we have been getting is: "Why you bring all these animals to the temple!. Ahhhhhhhhhh - we have never brought as much as one animal to the local temples. We have the compassion to attempt to care for them and attempt to spay and neuter them at our own expense. All we get is criticism. And my wife and I are just about done.

It never ends. Pit Bulls, Dobermans and German Shepherds all need training as well as an owner(s) who can control the dog. I've been threatened by everyone of those breeds in the owners home (all in the US) after the owner assured me that their dog was just super friendly and wouldn't hurt a fly. Show weakness and you've got a problem. You never put yourself in a submissive posture with any of those dogs. I don't deal with them any more. Just don't put yourself in the position to be attacked. Most of us can show enough dominance to these dogs to make them back off. Who do they prey on? Anyone showing weakness: elderly, young, disabled. Look at who got attacked here? Surprised? I've been attacked by soi dogs here in Thailand. I've made everyone of them back off. I've known too many people who have these breeds of dogs. "Oh Killer, Fang, and Shredder are just super friendly and wouldn't hurt a fly." That's all BS. These people have no control over their animals. What's worse? Is their a civil court in Thailand (with a jury) who would award damages for a dog attack? In the US there is. Thailand. "Oh, Killer bite you? Here's 3,000 THB. <Wai> Everything is all good now, mai?" No, there isn't a court system that will administer significant damages.. (Look at Vorayuth Yoovidhya 'compensation for killing a police officer. What an elitist joke). When Fang bites, Shredder shreds, and Killer kills - a few thousand THB is suppose to paper over an lifetime of damage. However, if you're a foreigner and you inadvertently touch a Thai HiSo woman? They need hundreds of thousands or millions in compensation. Bottom line: Don't put yourself or your kids or your grandparents in harms way. "How would you know Mr. Smarty Pant "Expert." I've got eight dogs. A couple of them are dangerous, which is why we have them. A couple more I don't trust with anyone inside the fence unless my wife or I am around. But they are fenced and they are territorial. We have a series of fences. Just don't be in the wrong fence uninvited. We are VERY upfront with people about that. The outside perimeter is always locked. We are REALLY upfront with people about that. If we let you in - don't wander. There is no - "Ohhhhh Skippy is just a sweetheart and wouldn't hurt a fly." Nope - Skippy and her partner will do damage. Don't wander! Don't have dogs you can not control, especially those breeds. And don't be ignorant. And if your dog attacks anyone who was invited on to your property? Control your dogs and take responsibility if things go south.

I hate to be Captain Obvious here, but had Griner come to Thailand last year with hash oil vape cartridges in her possession (as well as a lot of other countries who have even stricter drug laws), she may have met a fate worse than a few year of hard labor. As a matter of fact, can you fly into Dulles Air Port in Washington DC carrying hash oil vape cartridges like it's nothing? I don't have any sympathy for anyone carrying drugs across international borders who get caught <period>. It would have seem to me that Bout should have been swapped for some US citizens sitting in a Russian prison on spy charges. This is sort of an insane world nowadays.

I transported a dog to the vet recently and it peed on the fabric/cloth back seat of the car. I didn't catch it at first as I had the seat covered with a 'cloth' cover that is suppose to protect the seat. That didn't work well at all. So, I'm looking for someone who has experience is cleaning cloth seats. I talked to one detalier in CM but he insisted he needed to keep the car overnight to "remove the seats and allow them to dry in the sun light." They sounds like overkill to me. It would seem that the seats need to be sprayed with a solution that will counter the urine smell and they sucked back up with a powerful wet/dry canister vac. I'm looking for a referral for someone who has had the inside of their car detailed before and who can recommend a detailer who can do the work in a couple of hours. The seats can dry naturally when I take it home, ie, opens the doors and leave it in the sun to dry.

Best of luck. Thoughts and prayers for your sister.

Rinse the drain liberally after peeing in the shower.

I've worked shift work myself and going to a bar that opened at 6am to have a few beer before heading home to bed wasn't uncommon. Some people live very sheltered lives I see.

Honestly, it's none of your business. Feeling "Holier Than Thou" today? Must be. My suggestion. Worry about your own behavior. If the guy wants beer for breakfast it's up to him.

Here's my take. I keep one in my pocket. If asked to wear one, I smile and comply. Easy breezy. Play along to get along. However, I find that most places I now shop at don't have any 'heavies' at the door insisting on compliance. That goes for Big-C and Makro. The banks? Depends on the bank. My last trip to BKK Bank I wore one until I came across a maskless gal at one of the front desks. So mine came off. My SCB branch has always been overly cautious imho. I'll wear it around my neck. If asked, I put it on; if not, I don't. I don't see any reason to push it, but my philosophy is that eventually someone has to break the inbred fear response. I'm not afraid of Covid any more than any other of the upper respiratory diseases we used to simply call "a cold" or "the flu." And BTW, the only masks that actually work are P-100 or sealed air recyclers. My favorite are the "high so" plastic face shields that at moth or fly can fly though. Yeah - that's gonna stop a virus <laughs>.

SIN City? Way cool. Didya have fun?

Me too. Looks like a setup.

And who is to say this isn't completely staged by the 'anti-cannabis' cartel.

Methamphetamine is a much more dangerous issue. Also, given that Thai press will censor either a joint or a cigarette - what is the kid really smoking? Or perhaps he is smoking Meth?

Between now and the end of the Thai statutes of limitations, many Thais will be actively prosecuted - just not Vorayuth Yoovidhya who will have the red-carpet rolled out for him then day the the Thai statutes of limitations ends.

I know. I've been doing that since my wife went through menopause. "Psst! He's talking about phones connda!" Dohhh! Oh! Yes. Of course. Custom ROM ('read only memory, NOT Romance Outside of Marriage, or Raunchy On Manual). While we are on the subject, any suggestions for well-known links regarding diddling your Smartphone in a ROM sort of way. <wink wink> Now that I've picked a phone I have a target to read about.

For a phone that is about $100. Why would I care about a warranty. I've spent that much money in a couple of hours on Loi Kroh. Never got a warranty for those services. ???? Anyway, I found a Samsung A04S that I think will fit the bill. Under $100 or slightly over $100 if I get the 64GB upgrade. Now me being totally ignorant of these thing, I don't know if this is "locked" with a specific carrier or "unlocked." If it's "locked", I've no problems taking the steps to "unlock" it for my own SIM card carrier. I think mine is True, but the wife does all the smartphone carrier stuff based on whatever discounts she can get. If it's locked to a contractual carrier - pfft - then I'll need to know how to root it asap. For those who know, it this about 'unlocking the boot-loader' or is that something different? Yes, I am ignorant and no it's not a problem. It just means I need to learn. Anyway, my Thai was not good enough for the sales person in the Lamphun store where I saw the phone. I'll have to drag the wife along to do translation. With the memory upgrade to 64 GB it's about $105 USD at today's exchange rate. If I brick it? C'est la vie. Hopefully it's unlocked. From the reading I was doing it seems the phone sellers in the USA are the one's who are "locking crazy." I got my first dumbphone in the US in the early 2000s. I was always dismayed at why I couldn't just buy the phone at any store. Nope. You needed to buy it at the carrier's special store with their special contracts, and wait in special long line because they never had sufficient floor help, blah blah blah. What do I want? Just to slap the SIM into the new phone, get rid of as much bloatware and spyware as possible, and put the few apps I actually use on the phone. Or even better, flash it with a ROM that is a bloat-free as possible. So it looks like I found the phone. From here I gonna need suggestion and links on how to set it up to function the way I want it to. Actualy now that I'm reading specs, it seems the A04 run on a "special" OS version of Andriod - Android 12, One UI Core 4. Man, I detest "Special." So my first task now is to figure out how to flash the phone with a non-"Special" ROM. Any suggestions are welcome. I just want a light-weight, bloat-free OS as possible. Just just poked around in the internet and there seems to be a bunch of Custom ROMs for the A04. If anyway has a suggestion for a special ROM, let me know. This is sorta like picking a version of Linux. Due to the phone being rather underpowered, a good light-weigh Custom ROM may be the best approach. Something known and used by others as getting rid of bloat and spyware is a primary goal imho.

Finishing up Richard K Morgan's "Woken Furies" with The Screwtape Letters next in line.

Here's my take (because it will happen, it's just a matter of time, at least for those of us who look back beyond a single life-time and can grasp the cyclical nature of, well, Nature.) Do an internet search on Carrington Event and Coronal Mass Ejections. That will end CBDC as well as a large proportion of mankind who have lost their agrarian roots and who believe the world will end if "green" electric infrastructure is not fully embraced for everything. One good ***POP*** and it all stops and pretty much ends for generations to come as the world is tossed back into the dark ages (literally). Oh, and those non-GMO heirloom seeds? They'll be a currency within themselves. Personally, the way things are going at present? I think an X-30+, Earth-facing CME is just about the only thing that will 'save the Earth' from the present crop of greed-driven psychopaths who's vision for this world is serfdom for the majority of the commoners, ownership of everything that can be assigned a value by the Blackrocks and WEF crowds (and everything will be assigned a value down to the lowliest grains of sand), and of course euthanasia for the elderly, deformed, and otherwise unproductive CO2 producers. "A Carrington Event would be better," you ask. I think so. It will be The Great Leveler as opposed to The Great Reset. We go back to a past that was difficult and yet still maintained a sense of honor and independence. Yeah, it will be Mad Max to a degree. But it kicks the struts from underneath those who seek a 1000 year reign of technocratic globalism with themselves set at the top of the pyramid as literal gods of the earth. I'd rather deal with regional warlords.

And by the way, some of these displays of "Money Trees are rather fantastic. Here at Wat Ban Den in Northern Thailand they need cranes to erect their Money Trees. Yep - QR Codes and CBDC aren't replacing that unless the plan is for the government, NGOs, and other organizations to simply destroy society, which by the way seems to be The World Economic Forum stated goal for all of the commoners. Of course the destruction of religion seems to go hand in hand with their plans.
