He told me he works on the internet.

I can only tell what happened.

Maybe a good wife. She told me she was going to leave after she gets her permanent green card here in the U.S. of A. 30 years now that she got her permanent green card and now a U.S. of A. citizen and she ain't left yet. Makes me think she was lying to me! ???? Wife has 10 rai outside of Bangkok that she got from her Mom. Worth a lot of money from what I understand. She leases it to a cousin who grows rice on it. Wife borrowed $120,000.00 from me to open a restaurant here. Was supposed to start paying it back 2 years later. 1.5 years later and she had paid me back for the loan. The cruel thing is, she and the daughter forced me to babysit the granddaughter 8 - 10 hours a day in the restaurant basement starting when the granddaughter was 8 months old. The horror, the (cough cough) horror of babysitting a grand child! ???? Wife sold the restaurant and along with her sister (just as good a woman as my wife) bought a take out restaurant in a historical building that has over 100 other businesses and it makes an ungodly amount of money! My retirement money is close to 6 figures and she makes more than I do! That's why she was able to buy the condo. Wife comes from a good family in Thailand that takes care of their own. More honest too. My sister borrowed money from me and I never saw a penny come back!

Was it actually a "firearm" or a break barrel air rifle?

I signed a document that read like that, last year, before a condo sale was finalized a couple of months later. I used the google language app camera function to read it. The Thai woman who gave me the document to sign, at the signing (my wife was in the U.S.), was insisting that I need to understand that I had no legal rights of ownership for the condo. When I asked why she was so insistent about my understanding the issue of no legal ownership rights of the condo, I was told the Thai government was concerned about foreign men buying residences for their wives, in their wives name, then being kicked out of them and sometimes left penniless. It was my wife's money that paid for it, she wanted the condo after the price dropped 49%, and she paid cash for it. It is a two bedroom condo on the 26th floor on the corner of the building with two balconies, right next to the Chao Phraya River and has magnificent night time views. The grandkids and I like watching the barges and boats run up and down the river. My wife gets pissed off whenever I say, it's your condo and tells me it's our condo. ????

After my mother in law was cremated, each family member chose to take either, some of the ashes, or, as my wife did, remnants of bone that had survived the cremation and that was put into a small urn to keep for themselves. The rest of the ashes were buried at sea. No need to travel anywhere to see the vase with ashes as each family member had their own share of them kept at their own homes. I assumed that was something the Thai's did.

Chocolate is not addictive. Stop spreading fake information. I have stopped eating chocolate frequently, usually between chocolate bars, chocolate drinks, chocolate cakes, chocolate muffins, etc. You will have to excuse me right now while I go downstairs and make sure that the wife isn't drinking my chocolate milk (I stopped drinking that after the last glass).

Off the topic of underage prostitution but about obesity in Thailand ... I was amazed, during my recent trip to Thailand, with the severely obese, seemingly mostly women, that I saw in Thailand. Several times I was looking at the calves of women and thinking, her calf is bigger than my thigh! Sort of like many of the women here in Pennsylvania, U.S. of A.

And make sure the departure date stamped into your passport on entry, is correct. One trip years ago, my departure ticket was dated 28 days after I arrived. However, the departure date stamped into my passport was 3 days before I was leaving. Even when I showed immigration my airline ticket, with my arrival date in Thailand 28 days before, I was still charged 3 days overstay!

Not like me. I don't chew grass.

That is F ing funny!

Not about vaporizers or drugs (that I know of). A good friend of my wife is married to an American and lives in Montana. 2 or 3 years ago they transisted through Japan. I don't know how the Japanese found out that the husband had been convicted of a felony crime in the U.S. of A., but they did. They fined him $400.00 and put him in dentention of some kind for being an ex felon entering Japan. They kept him in detention until his scheduled flight to Thailand.

That's that French guy that lives in the other condo building. I am still standing tall.

You didn't, which is why I asked. I don't know how traffic for the forum creates income.

Dollars (or whatever the currency is) due to those ... ads?

Hmmmm? Put a cell phone on video record, put into fridge, close door. open door, look at video?

I don't need to lift my wrist up to eye level. I look down to my wrist. I look down at my wrist and can see the 1/4 inch size numbers displayed or see the hands pointing to numbers. It is still quicker than getting a cell phone out of a shirt pocket, orient the cell phone so that it is up right with the face towards my eyes, then pushing a hard button to light up the screen (no password), and then sometimes having to touch the soft button at the bottom of the screen to bring the screen back to home screen, so that I can see the larger time display, as the time displayed in the upper left corner is usually too small to see without, actually, having to move it around until it comes into focus with my glasses (I'm farsighted with variable focus lenses in my glasses). Having a watch is quicker. Having only used cell phones since 2001, that had clock displays, I have found a wrist watch is always a quicker and more convenient way to find the time. Unless I have a clock that is displaying the time within eyeshot. Which I do, in the home, in my truck, in my workshop, and when I was gainfully employed and had need to log times for work (sometimes a real pain in the tout) we had clocks on landline phones, hanging on the wall, installed in the equipment panels, in the mobile DF cars, at communication intercept sites, etc.. Now retired and having clocks everywhere at home, is why I take my watch off frequently when I am at home.

I will try that, as soon as I get my license back.

That information helped me decide on an air conditioning system for my house in the U.S. of A.. I am not sure how much that is helping to save on electricity, due to the basic cost of electricty having gone up over the winter after it was installed.

I remember transisters when they were the size, more or less, of a peanut. A couple of months ago I was reading up on the upgraded versian of the hearing aid that was given me by the Vetrans Administration. It's about the size of a large cashew. Inside are over 22 million transisters! There must be a versian of AI in it. It is supposed to be able to determine what noise is background noise and what noise is the human speach (or what ever you are listening to I guess) you want to hear and turn down the background noise while isolating the human speach you want to hear.

It's about covering your mouth when you yawn, to prevent demons that caused you to yawn from entering. A person is blessed when sneezing because they have ejected said demon that entered when the person did not cover their mouth when yawning.

He works on the internet.

But does the boomer poster know how to quote multiple posts? If not, why not educate them? There is always a learning curve.

I have been wearing a watch for more than 60 years. My cell phone is too big to wear on my wrist and a pain to dig out of my zippered pants pocket just to see what time it is.

In 1981 or 1982, I bought a used refrigerator in the United States. I think it was a Westinghouse brand. It was $5.00, a real steal I thought! The seller was only interested in getting it out of the house. In 1984 I sold it for $50.00! I was very pleased with the profit. As I was cleaning the refrigerator before the new owner came to pick it up, I was astonished to find a manufacturing date of 1947. Darn refrigerator was 2 years older than I was! The compressor worked fine.
