  1. Less than normal. Might be due to my Native American ancestry. Might also be why I can't handle alcoholic beverages. I can get drunk on 2 small glasses of wine. Too much and I get sick for days. Or I just might be allergic to alcohol!
  2. I wonder the same about alcoholic drink. A more dangerous substance for intentional inebriation for many people in the world. It must be something ingrained in the brain as even animals and birds will intentionally become inebriation, such as eating fermented fruit.
  3. I knew a woman years ago that told me she loved a very hairy man. I thought it was a little strange.
  4. I am curious about who pays for the shipping costs back to the country the vehicle is stolen from? If the owner is reimbursed by the insurance company and the vehicle is returned to them, do they have to pay the insurance company back (I assume they would have to)?
  5. I know you probably have already received offers to transport the diamonds, but, can you tell me where you are and wait till June for me to pick them up. June is when I go to Bangkok! You can keep the gold. I try to stay away from heavy metal!
  6. They might be prescription sun glasses purchased outside of Thailand. I have prescription sunglasses that I paid a little more than $600.00 for even after insurance, in the U.S. of A.!
  7. My ticket for arrival at the end of June, was purchased in December, 22. I will see what happens when I arrive.
  8. Or the balloon was launched and china used the jet stream to its advantage to help float it into the United States. I believe that is a more plausible theory. There is no way that the U.S. military did not know the path of the balloon almost from the point of launch to the time it was shot down. My time with a branch of the military involved with spying on other countries is decades old, but even back then, the U.S. military was tracking flying objects before they left the borders of other countries. The amount of advancement of intel gathering abilities since then, most likely allowed the tracking of the balloon by the time it was high enough to pose a problem with air craft traffic.
  9. Back in the early 1970's an airplane pilot in the branch of the Army I was in smoked. I never saw him smoke, but the evidence was hanging on his wrist. A roach clip. Judging by the amount of weed tar on it, a well used roach clip.
  10. Like an idiot one day, I was scraping corrosion on the positive pole of a large 12 volt truck battery with a straightened out paper clip. As soon the paper clip grounded out on the frame of the truck, there was a snap, my thumb and finger were branded, and there was a ball of metal imbedded in my thumb!
  11. Like AgMech Cowboy commented. That is a nice house. I imagine it might be nice to sit out on the decks, or underneath it on the cooler days when it is raining. Or even sitting out there any time of the year. Is your leak up there on the top right in the picture, where it looks like you are missing two shingles?
  12. I have been in a hotels in Thailand where I was either told or there was a sign telling the guest, that they had two bottles of water a day, free. If more than two bottles were opened, there was a charge added to the bill. At one hotel, they charged me for a bottle and claimed that the seal was broken. I did not open it, but paid for it. I was charged 20 or 40 baht for the water. At 7/11 the same size cost 10 baht or less. To resolve that issue in the hotels that charge for more than two bottles and I am staying more than 2 or 3 days, I do what my Thai wife does, buy 2 liter bottles of water from a near by store. That way I have enough water for my coffee, that I make in my room. Those were not cheap hotels either. Except the one that a Thai friend of the family reserved for me. I only stayed one night there. After that experience, I told friends, I would make my own reservations. What was odd at one hotel was, even though I bought my own water, every day there were two more free bottles in the room!
  13. I hope this thread keeps going with more information and links for Bangkok! A good source for a BLT sandwich would be delicious! ???? Won't be back to Bangkok till the end of June.
  14. That food looks good! Too bad I am not in Pattaya!
  15. The Earth isn't flat. It's an upside down bowl! ????
  16. If your hypothesis is the case, then all the authorities need to do is wait and see if someone shows up at a hospital with radiation burns or poisoning! https://www.cdc.gov/nceh/radiation/emergencies/isotopes/cesium.htm#:~:text=External exposure to large amounts of Cs-137 can,cancer because of exposure to high-energy gamma radiation.
  17. You are the one that is making the claim. So I am seeking clarification from you. Why should I go ask a moderator to verify your claims? You could ask a moderator and post the results that verifies your claims, right?
  18. Now you have done it. Does anyone know what the google.com website address is so go to it and I can type google into it? ????
  19. The government healthcare website sent me a bunch of emails, telling me that the sign up period was open, you haven't signed up yet, hurry up and sign up for healthcare, the signup period is about to close, this is your last week to sign up, this is your last day to sign up, you still have time to sign up ... etc. Since that website knows what my age is (from the first time I set up an account) and knows that I am on medicare because I tried to find out the cost of obamacare one year after I was on medicare, I am now wondering why I had so many emails urging me to sign up? Could it be that the obamacre healthcare plan is now being used as the secondary for medicare? I have not bothered to do an internet search so I don't know the answer.
  20. If it were driven by my searches, then would it not provide results based on my past searches. Like youtube does? That does not seem to be what occurs for me with google. Yes, I see results for searches that I make with google, but when I search for certain political themes, google will not provide results, or sometimes only 1 or 2 results. Yet when I use the very same search words, bing or 1 or 2 of the other search engines will pull up multiple results on the first page. I have in the past gone as far as to click through the numbered pages (1, 2, 3, 4 etc) at the bottom of the google page and look at the results on each page until google stops providing any more pages. Odd since many of the results that google presents are also found in the results of the other search engines.
