  1. Making this post for one.
  2. As you well know it's not meant to be taken literally but if that's the best you can do....
  3. Three epithets I try to live by: 1. Live dangerously. “For believe me! — the secret for harvesting from existence the greatest fruitfulness and the greatest enjoyment is: to live dangerously! Build your cities on the slopes of Vesuvius! Send your ships into uncharted seas! Live at war with your peers and yourselves! Be robbers and conquerors as long as you cannot be rulers and possessors, you seekers of knowledge! Soon the age will be past when you could be content to live hidden in forests like shy deer! At long last the search for knowledge will reach out for its due: — it will want to rule and possess, and you with it!” - Friedrich Nietzsche, The Gay Science: (Gay meant something different in those days). 2. Part of the Serenity Prayer. “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference…...” - Anon (disputed) and not that I believe in God. 3. And now the end is probably near (No not Sinatra)! Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light….. - Dylan Thomas
  4. Ask and you shall receive 👎👎
  5. Try a ticket to Switzerland - it's legal there.
  6. Seems like a sensible precaution to me whilst there is uncertainty around the issue.
  7. Maybe deport them to Ukraine would be more appropriate if found guilty
  8. OMG can we stop the left /right paradigm . Sometimes my views might be "left" sometimes "right". But what I want to be is a person who thinks for himself after looking at as much information as I can on a subject.
  9. Yes and No depending on the context and the source.
  10. Old saying - what's yours is mine - what's mine is mine!
  11. It's not the colour of the skin that matters - it's the colour of the culture.
  12. Do you really need to tell us how well off you are?
  13. Tourists instructed to Smoke weed in private. Are they supplying it for free?
  14. Some days happy - some days not happy - most of the time just getting on with it.
  15. I'm 81 had a Thai partner for 16 years looks like we might have to part if the "rules" get much more onerous
  16. If you are that rich I suspect there are other places you can retire to that might be more attractive.
  17. Depends what sort of "chance" you are looking for. And thinking you can "take care of her" before you have even been out with her is a little too premature and a recipe for disaster too. Poco a Poco excuse my Spanish but you might get the Idea
  18. The US is already living beyond its means what difference will a few trillion more of debt make - it will only bring the inevitable closer.
  19. Actually he has also received physical things and if a credit card just sends a pic and then I can use the data to make payments (or use it with Google pay in a shop). Also a couple of times he has couriered something but that is expensive
  20. I would never trust redirection or direct post to Thailand - I redirect to a very good Spanish friend who scans and emails to me.
  21. 14 hours non stop - boy was I flying!!!👫
